+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.
