+OpenMP Support
+--------------
+OpenMP 3.1 is fully supported, but disabled by default. To enable it, please use
+``-fopenmp=libomp`` command line option. Your feedback (positive or negative) on
+using OpenMP-enabled clang would be much appreciated; please share it either on
+`cfe-dev <http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/cfe-dev>`_ or `openmp-dev
+<http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/openmp-dev>`_ mailing lists.
+
+In addition to OpenMP 3.1, several important elements of 4.0 version of the
+standard are supported as well:
+- ``omp simd``, ``omp for simd`` and ``omp parallel for simd`` pragmas
+- atomic constructs
+- ``proc_bind`` clause of ``omp parallel`` pragma
+- ``depend`` clause of ``omp task`` pragma (except for array sections)
+- ``omp cancel`` and ``omp cancellation point`` pragmas
+- ``omp taskgroup`` pragma
