+Custom ABIs and Plugin Libraries
+--------------------------------
+
+Plugin libraries can extend coroutine lowering enabling a wide variety of users
+to utilize the coroutine transformation passes. An existing coroutine lowering
+is extended by: 1. defining custom ABIs that inherit from the existing ABIs,
+2. give a list of generators for the custom ABIs when constructing the
+`CoroSplit`_ pass, and 3. use `coro.begin.custom.abi` in place of `coro.begin`
+with an additional parameter for the index of the generator/ABI to be used for
+the coroutine.
+
+A custom ABI overriding the SwitchABI's materialization looks like:
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+
+  class CustomSwitchABI : public coro::SwitchABI {
+  public:
+    CustomSwitchABI(Function &F, coro::Shape &S)
+      : coro::SwitchABI(F, S, ExtraMaterializable) {}
+  };
+
+Giving a list of custom ABI generators while constructing the `CoroSplit`
+pass looks like:
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+
+  CoroSplitPass::BaseABITy GenCustomABI = [](Function &F, coro::Shape &S) {
+    return new CustomSwitchABI(F, S);
+  };
+
+  CGSCCPassManager CGPM;
+  CGPM.addPass(CoroSplitPass({GenCustomABI}));
+
+The LLVM IR for a coroutine using a Coroutine with a custom ABI looks like:
+
+.. code-block:: llvm
+
+  define ptr @f(i32 %n) presplitcoroutine_custom_abi {
+  entry:
+    %id = call token @llvm.coro.id(i32 0, ptr null, ptr null, ptr null)

+    %alloc = call ptr @malloc(i32 %size)

+    %n.val = phi i32 [ %n, %entry ], [ %inc, %loop ]
+    %inc = add nsw i32 %n.val, 1
