OE uses qemumips to simulate a Malta board by default.
As upstream qemu introduced:
https://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=commit;h=94c2b6aff43cdfcfdfb552773a6b6b973a72ef0b
The Malta board can support up to 2GiB of RAM which should
be able to boot a Linux kernel built with CONFIG_HIGHMEM
enabled and passing "-m 2048" to QEMU and appending the
following kernel parameters:
...
mem=256M@0x0 mem=256M@0x90000000 mem=1536M@0x20000000
...
But the following commit in kernel broke above mem=X@Y setting
which added the memory as reserved memory area.
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=73fbc1eba7ffa3bf0ad12486232a8a1edb4e4411

commit 73fbc1eba7ffa3bf0ad12486232a8a1edb4e4411
Author: Marcin Nowakowski <marcin.nowakowski@imgtec.com>
Date: Wed Nov 23 14:43:49 2016 +0100
MIPS: fix mem=X@Y commandline processing
...
So remove `mem=*' to disable user-defined physical RAM map
which let kernel itself caculates memory ranges.

i think you can squash both patches into one. Additionally we should
be able to cover mipsel case as well

I started a build with latest poky and only set DEFAULTTUE=mipsel. Is this the right way to use little endian?
Then I got the following error and found kernel and kernel modules output are all big endian.
ERROR: linux-yocto-4.14.48+gitAUTOINC+94457657b8_6c2433d7c5-r0 do_package_qa: QA Issue: Endiannes did not match (1 to 0) on /work/qemumips-poky-linux/linux-yocto/4.14.48+gitAUTOINC+94457657b8_6c2433d7c5-r0/packages-split/kernel-module-i2c-dev-4.14.48-yocto-standard/lib/modules/4.14.48-yocto-standard/kernel/drivers/i2c/i2c-dev.ko [arch]
Then I tried to build a empty file.

as: unrecognized option '-EL'
Does it mean there something wrong with little endian toolchain?

OE uses qemumips to simulate a Malta board by default.
As upstream qemu introduced:
https://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=commit;h=94c2b6aff43cdfcfdfb552773a6b6b973a72ef0b
The Malta board can support up to 2GiB of RAM which should
be able to boot a Linux kernel built with CONFIG_HIGHMEM
enabled and passing "-m 2048" to QEMU and appending the
following kernel parameters:
...
mem=256M@0x0 mem=256M@0x90000000 mem=1536M@0x20000000
...
But the following commit in kernel broke above mem=X@Y setting
which added the memory as reserved memory area.

Hi Ross,
I have sent another fix to linux-yocto to enable CONFIG_HIGHMEM
for qemumips (mti-malta32).
