CHERI adds some extra hardware functionality which software can take advantage of to do advanced memory protection and such. https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/research/security/ctsrd/cheri/ https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/research/security/ctsrd/cheri/cheri-risc-v.html https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/techreports/UCAM-CL-TR-951.pdf

Aoutch, 590 pages of spec => paine and suffering Hard for me to have an opinon on how much time it would take so far.

I will be in https://open-src-soc.org/2022-05/program-riscv-meeting.html physicaly And they will have a "Intro to CHERI capability-based memory protection" talk, so, it will help my understanding ^^
