-*Conditionally compiled source code* is source code that is compiled only under certain conditions. Source code can be made conditionally compiled using the [`cfg`] and [`cfg_attr`] [attributes] and the built-in [`cfg` macro]. Whether to compile can depend on the target architecture of the compiled crate, arbitrary values passed to the compiler, and other things further described below.

+r[cfg.predicate]
 Each form of conditional compilation takes a _configuration predicate_ that
 evaluates to true or false. The predicate is one of the following:
 
+r[cfg.predicate.option]
 * A configuration option. The predicate is true if the option is set, and false if it is unset.
+
+r[cfg.predicate.all]
 * `all()` with a comma-separated list of configuration predicates. It is true if all of the given predicates are true, or if the list is empty.
+
+r[cfg.predicate.any]
 * `any()` with a comma-separated list of configuration predicates. It is true if at least one of the given predicates is true. If there are no predicates, it is false.
+
+r[cfg.predicate.not]
 * `not()` with a configuration predicate. It is true if its predicate is false and false if its predicate is true.
 
+r[cfg.option-spec]
 _Configuration options_ are either names or key-value pairs, and are either set or unset.
+
+r[cfg.option-name]
 Names are written as a single identifier, such as `unix`.
+
+r[cfg.option-key-value]
 Key-value pairs are written as an identifier, `=`, and then a string, such as `target_arch = "x86_64"`.
 
 > **Note**: Whitespace around the `=` is ignored, so `foo="bar"` and `foo = "bar"` are equivalent.
 
+r[cfg.option-key-uniqueness]
 Keys do not need to be unique. For example, both `feature = "std"` and `feature = "serde"` can be set at the same time.
 
 ## Set Configuration Options
 
+r[cfg.options.set]
+
+r[cfg.options.general]
 Which configuration options are set is determined statically during the
-compilation of the crate. Some options are _compiler-set_ based on data
-about the compilation. Other options are _arbitrarily-set_ based on input
-passed to the compiler outside of the code. It is not possible to set a
+compilation of the crate.
+
+r[cfg.options.target]
+Some options are _compiler-set_ based on data about the compilation.
+
+r[cfg.options.other]
+Other options are _arbitrarily-set_ based on input passed to the compiler outside of the code.
+
+r[cfg.options.crate]
+It is not possible to set a
 configuration option from within the source code of the crate being compiled.
