[SOLVED] Assembler error ‘illegal operands’ when compiling on RISC-V 64 computer

[PascalDragon]

From the comments above I got feeling only me and a couple of other stupid newbies don't have it working as a charm.  (*sarcasm*)

Because if one knows how to build FPC it's no problem, however you explicitly asked for an installer and there is none.

[yurets_z]

OK. Then its all clear. The request is solved. Time to go and ask elsewhere

Ask elsewhere for installer or have ask elsewhere for build FPC ?

For installer that correct: is burden Linux distribution (there is exist debian linux package FPC and I have assume install x86 and risc is same then have copy-paste or have better use install script linux FPC that is store sourceforge).

For build is make cross-compile compiler. It make generate risc exe (and package/unit) then can make archive and have use install script SourceForge).

It not exist installer because risc target not finish (yet).

Ask elsewhere for constructive assistance.

Yes, I have understand but that is no tell what is constructive assistance for you

As write PascalDragon when ask for installer: There is no installer exists. It is no exists because FPC risc-v support not finish yet. When is risc-v for FPC finish then can make installer. Installer is for OS and FPC<>OS. Then is come play distribution/package maintainer and have make installer/package (or make script that other linux distribution is use and copy->pasta).

If want FPC for risc now then have need for build fpc and use github (development) source. That is prerequisite and have learn how build FPC (that is require read and understand for build-faq and wiki. I think there not exist dedicate FPC wiki risc-v.

If not know or no want know/learn how is build FPC then can use FPCUpDeluxe (Is exist version linux 64 bit riscv but then have no share what is exact target/host).

When ask assistance then question need be clear. That is no reflect for be constructive or no constructive

 yurets_z, you seem to be getting a bit of a roasting here, I have no idea why. Thaddy is always rude to people, please disregard him. Please don't judge us all by this exchange.

It does seem you downloaded exactly what you should have, the readme for it says -

This snapshot fpc-3.3.1.riscv64-linux.built.on.x86_64-linux.tar.gz was generated 2026-01-14 12:14 on gcc421 using:

I have never used those installers but looks like a good thing !

So, you are planning to run Lazarus (and FPC) on the SBC to do development work there ?  If so, you would be better to build a RISC-V64 compiler, not a cross compiler. Move it to the SBC and then run your Lazarus build there (if it has enough memory).

Alternatively, if you plan to develop on your x86_64 box and cross compile then you don't need to build Lazarus with the cross compiler, just build (or install) a standard Lazarus and set a project mode to use your cross compiler from within the IDE. The IDE just does IDE stuff, it passes the compiling to what ever compiler is necessary.

So, question, do you have an x86_64 compiler on your x86_64 machine ? The cross compiler you downloaded is not enough to build Lazarus.
