HI, im a fan of chess engines, and im talking about https://github.com/syzygy1/Cfish cfish is fork of stockfish a very famous open source chess engine written in C++, cfish is a fork written in C by Ronald De Man, the syzygy author.
On raspberry pi 3 b the compile is possible i dont know if it's correct or the faster way but i did it this way changing Makefile.

make build ARCH=armv7

here are changes:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'compiled cfish with this difference:
diff Makefile Makefileoriginale
71,72c71,72
< popcnt = no # yes
< sse = no # yes
---
> popcnt = yes

< numa = no # yes

< CXXFLAGS += -fno-gcse -march=armv8-a+crc -mtune=cortex-a53 -mfpu=crypto-neon-fp-armv8 -mfloat-abi=hard -ftree-vectorize -funsafe-math-optimizations -mvectorize-with-neon-quad --pipe -O2

< LDFLAGS += -lpthread # line to add

> CFLAGS += -fno-gcse -mthumb -march=armv7-a -mfloat-abi=softfp
423c420
< $(MAKE) ARCH=$(ARCH) COMP=$(COMP) # raspi config-sanity
---
> $(MAKE) ARCH=$(ARCH) COMP=$(COMP) config-sanity
')

as you can see i flagged no numa.
numa would speed up a lot the analyze, so, the question is, there is a way to install and make it available numa on armv7h raspberry pi 3 b?
