Experimental platforms appear to work in practice and have some platform specific code in etcd, but do not fully conform to the stable support policy. Unstable platforms have been lightly tested, but less than experimental. Unlisted architecture and operating system pairs are currently unsupported; caveat emptor.
etcd has known issues on 32-bit systems due to a bug in the Go runtime. See the [Go issue][go-issue] and [atomic package][go-atomic] for more information.
To avoid inadvertently running a possibly unstable etcd server, `etcd` on unstable or unsupported architectures will print a warning message and immediately exit if the environment variable `ETCD_UNSUPPORTED_ARCH` is not set to the target architecture.
