Description

We need to add a statement on architecture support.

Just a little "works on all architectures supported by Linux with kexec" will do, with a list of exampleds, "such as RISC-V, Arm, Arm64, and x86".

It might be better to have a "known good" specific list, and add "may work on other architectures supported by Linux".

Research direction

Locate the relevant architecture-support passage in the repository’s Markdown book pages. Decide whether to use the general Linux-supported wording or a known-good list, then add the statement with examples such as RISC-V, Arm, Arm64, and x86; it is done when the documentation clearly describes supported architectures.
