[RFC PATCH] plugins/core: add missing QEMU_DISABLE_CFI annotations
Posted by Alex Bennée 1 week, 6 days ago
Most of the memory callbacks come directly from the generated code
however we have do have a a direct from C callback for the slow-path
and memory helpers.

There is also a reset callback that calls out to plugins.

Like the other plugin points we need to disable CFI as we are making
function calls to dynamically linked libraries.
