I'm studying how to add a new target for the Freepascal compiler. The target is the missing armhf-FreeBSD. So I have looked at FPC guide (https://wiki.freepascal.org/Porting_Free_Pascal#Adding_a_new_target) and looking at Overview section, item 2 says:

"Take the closest existing RTL as a start, copy it and start implementing"

I was thinking of starting with armhf-netbsd, that can I suppose to be the closest to the armhf-freebsd target. I'm right? Someone experienced adding new targets for FPC has another suggestion?

You need to add support of a new CPU to the existing freebsd target. The target would be arm-freebsd, since armhf is not treated as a separate CPU by FPC. You need to create arm startup files in the rtl/freebsd/arm folder.
