Hey Sohil, So, one data point: I've been using these for the past few days on a piece of FRED-capable hardware to do kernel shadow stack development. At least for my purposes, they're working great. Other than sashiko, it looks like there hasn't been much activity on v10. What are your plans for this? Are you going to rebase and repost after the merge window closes? Is there anything else you know of holding this up?
