Hi Hev,

Thanks for your advice, I tried sc.q with r or ZC. the result as
below: (with gcc 14.2.1 in fedora-42)
   - sc.q with "r"  caused system hang
   - sc.q with "ZC" caused compiler error:
     {standard input}: Assembler messages:
     {standard input}:10037: Fatal error: Immediate overflow.
     format: u0:0 )
