Well, this is not completely true. As said, JIT employs absolute addresses a lot, and for instance, you can use `lea` to compute the absolute address of a variable at runtime (with…

I understand that they refer to it as a fixed-length instruction set, it's correct, note though that not all ARMv8 instructions are 4 bytes long. Indeed, some instructions that are…

I think it moderately depends on the definition you give it to. If you require RISC to be a load/store architecture, x86 is not even close to be one. Also, aarch64 is a variable-le…

Even if the same key is shared by all processes, keys are stored in registers that are meant to be not accessible to userspace, so a disclosure vulnerability would not help here an…

True, but drivers methods are exposed through IOKit framework, which clearly does not even attempt in reducing the attack surface, and instead, makes the exploitation easier. Thus,…

Yes, I got what you meant, and I know that some parts, especially those which cover measuring, should perhaps be investigated deeper. I'll outline the objectives better next time.

What kind of work would it need sorry? Anyway I can understand this may not seem to be real benchmarking, while writing it eventually became almost an excuse, the very original pur…
