H.J.,
we had an off-list discussion regarding this, and I want to double-check
if my recollection of the conclusion is correct.
Basically, we said that we would try to enable HWSAN on x86-64 as well
(using Intel LAM) *without* glibc changes or a new ABI. Once we have a
better understanding of how address tagging is used/could be used by
applications, we plan to define a general-purpose programming interface
for it.
Thanks,
Florian
