| Arch Support
 | |
| ============
 | |
| 
 | |
| Currently, the Rust compiler (``rustc``) uses LLVM for code generation,
 | |
| which limits the supported architectures that can be targeted. In addition,
 | |
| support for building the kernel with LLVM/Clang varies (please see
 | |
| Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst). This support is needed for ``bindgen``
 | |
| which uses ``libclang``.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Below is a general summary of architectures that currently work. Level of
 | |
| support corresponds to ``S`` values in the ``MAINTAINERS`` file.
