- HappMacDonald 3y agoI don't understand why more languages don't just handle a separate data stack from the call stack. Then the call stack can remain harder to screw up and you can continue using stack frames for arguments or locals as desired. When feeling productive (not much in the past year unfortunately) I've been trying to build a bytecode for i86/x64 that operates this way.
- ori_b 3y agoI see what you're getting at. I think something like code pointed integrity would be more interesting, and would even protect pointers in vtables and other heap allocated structures: https://www.usenix.org/system/files/conference/osdi14/osdi14-paper-kuznetsov.pdf https://www.usenix.org/system/files/conference/osdi14/osdi14...
