<h4 id="target_arch_x86">X86</h4>
<!-- ======================== -->
<p>The support for X86 (both 32-bit and 64-bit) is considered stable
on Darwin (Mac OS/X), Linux, FreeBSD, and Dragonfly BSD: it has been tested to
correctly compile large C and Objective-C codebases. (FIXME: Anything specific
we want to say here? Possibly mention some LLVM x86 limitations?)
<p>The support for X86 (both 32-bit and 64-bit) is considered stable on Darwin
(Mac OS/X), Linux, FreeBSD, and Dragonfly BSD: it has been tested to correctly
compile many large C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ codebases.</p>
<!-- ======================== -->
<h4 id="target_arch_arm">ARM</h4>
<!-- ======================== -->
ARM support is mostly feature-complete, but still experimental; it hasn't
undergone significant testing.
<p>The support for ARM (specifically ARMv6 and ARMv7) is considered stable on
Darwin (iOS): it has been tested to correctly compile many large C, C++,
Objective-C, and Objective-C++ codebases.</p>
<p>It is not quite feature complete, the following areas still need work:</p>
<ul>
<li>Vector support (NEON in particular) is not yet well tested and may have
ABI errors.</li>
<li>Clang only supports a limited number of ARM architectures. It does not yet
fully support ARMv5, for example.</li>
</ul>
