SPARC uses big endian byte order, however, V9 supports also little endian byte order, but for data access only, not instruction access.\cite{SPARCV9}\\ \paragraph{\product{dyncall} support} \product{dyncall} fully supports the SPARC 64-bit instruction set (V9), \product{dyncallback} support is missing, though. \subsubsection{SPARC (64-bit) Calling Convention} @@@ finish
