Thanks for the pull request, and welcome! The Rust team is excited to review your changes, and you should hear from @jamesmunns (or someone else) soon. If any changes to this PR are deemed necessary, please add them as extra commits. This ensures that the reviewer can see what has changed since they last reviewed the code. Due to the way GitHub handles out-of-date commits, this should also make it reasonably obvious what issues have or haven't been addressed. Large or tricky changes may require several passes of review and changes. Please see the contribution instructions for more information. |

This also supersedes #42, as I wrote about eh_personality without looking at existing PRs. |

@jamesmunns any chance to get this reviewed? |
| Many targets already have a known triple used to describe them, typically in the form | ||
| ARCH-VENDOR-SYS-ABI. You should aim to use the same triple that [LLVM uses][llvm-target-triple]; |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Uhm, ARCH-VENDOR-SYS-ABI is a quadruple(t), not a triple(t). ;)

As we were discussing rust-lang/rust#58500, I realized that there is nowhere other than community blogs that actually discusses how to create a new target. This adds new documentation about creating custom targets and common pitfalls that you may encounter.
