Meaning, minus possible required bug fixes, all the frontend languages supported on a full instal of either GCC or LLVM.

The wild thing is that this SoC is a heterogenous compute device. It has three different kinds of cores: a pretty beefy arm64 core and two different RISC-V cores: a 1Ghz one for running Linux and a 700Mhz one dedicated to running a real-time operating system. The arm64 core can also run its own OS.
Also a user-programmable 300 MHz 8051 (8 bit) primarily there to manage timers and interrupts and wake up the big 64 bit cores.
Note that the application-processor 1 GHz C906 and Arm A53 are either/or, you can't run both at the same time — similar to the Arm M33 and RISC-V Hazard3 core pairs on the Raspberry Pi RP2350.
I haven't noticed it, rather cool!
