+# `x86_64-unknown-motor`
+
+**Tier: 3**
+
+[Motor OS](https://github.com/moturus/motor-os) is a new operating system
+for virtualized environments.
+
+## Target maintainers
+
+[@lasiotus](https://github.com/lasiotus)
+
+## Requirements
+
+This target is cross-compiled. There are no special requirements for the host.
+
+Motor OS uses the ELF file format.
+
+## Building the target
+
+The target can be built by enabling it for a `rustc` build, for example:
+
+```toml
+[build]
+build-stage = 2
+target = ["x86_64-unknown-motor"]
+```
+
+## Building Rust programs
+
+Rust standard library is fully supported/implemented, but is not yet part of
+the official Rust repo, so an out-of-tree building process should be
+followed, as described in the
+[build doc](https://github.com/moturus/motor-os/blob/main/docs/build.md).
+
+## Testing
+
+Cross-compiled Rust binaries and test artifacts can be executed in Motor OS VMs,
+as described in e.g.
+[Hello Motor OS](https://github.com/moturus/motor-os/blob/main/docs/recipes/hello-motor-os.md)
+example.
+
+## Cross-compilation toolchains and C code
+
+C code can be compiled as part of Rust cargo projects. However, there is
+no libc support.
