could because you used the wrong target triple

[tqchen]

try to do gcc -v on the board to see the target triple you have

[ysh329]

Successful cross-compilation and some notes below:

According to tutorial Cross Compilation and RPC
, I edit this line f = tvm.build(s, [A, B], target='llvm -target=aarch64-linux-gnu', name='myadd') in cross_compilation_and_rpc.py on local machine using matched target value. Check matched target value using gcc -v on remote device (board).

successful message on board

Also note that if you want to do CPU testing, it might make sense to add detailed target options, for example

-mattr=+neon

to enable neon support
