+Object File Format
+------------------
+
+The MC layer's object writers support a variety of object formats. Because of
+target-specific aspects of object formats each target only supports a subset of
+the formats supported by the MC layer. Most targets support emitting ELF
+objects. Other vendor-specific objects are generally supported only on targets
+that are supported by that vendor (i.e. MachO is only supported on targets
+supported by Darwin, and XCOFF is only supported on targets that support AIX).
+Additionally some targets have their own object formats (i.e. DirectX, SPIR-V
+and WebAssembly).
+
+The table below captures a snapshot of object file support in LLVM:
