I would suggest doing it by config name and putting ENDIANNESS in config.mk something like so (untested):

I disagree. This is IMHO not a good idea. I think the tool chain should "know" which endian mode it is. I don;t ike the ide to encode this in a build target name:

How can we determine that?

Why do we have to? The only one who needs this type of information is the toolchain, and it knows.

CROSS_COMPILE could be set to anything. It could be:

• mipsel-linux
• 4kc_le-linux
• mips-little-linux
• ...

Is this true?

Yes.
