Release change checklist
A change note (development_handbook.md#change-notes) is required for any pull request which modifies:
- The structure or layout of the release artifacts.
- The evaluation performance (memory, execution time) of an existing query.
- The results of an existing query in any circumstance.
If you are only adding new rule queries, a change note is not required.
Author: Is a change note required?
- [ ] Yes
- [x] No
🚨🚨🚨 Reviewer: Confirm that format of shared queries (not the .qll file, the .ql file that imports it) is valid by running them within VS Code.
- [ ] Confirmed
Reviewer: Confirm that either a change note is not required or the change note is required and has been added.
- [ ] Confirmed
Query development review checklist
For PRs that add new queries or modify existing queries, the following checklist should be completed by both the author and reviewer:
Author
- [x] Have all the relevant rule package description files been checked in?
- [x] Have you verified that the metadata properties of each new query is set appropriately?
- [x] Do all the unit tests contain both "COMPLIANT" and "NON_COMPLIANT" cases?
- [x] Are the alert messages properly formatted and consistent with the style guide?
- [x] Have you run the queries on OpenPilot and verified that the performance and results are acceptable?
As a rule of thumb, predicates specific to the query should take no more than 1 minute, and for simple queries be under 10 seconds. If this is not the case, this should be highlighted and agreed in the code review process. - [x] Does the query have an appropriate level of in-query comments/documentation?
- [x] Have you considered/identified possible edge cases?
- [x] Does the query not reinvent features in the standard library?
- [x] Can the query be simplified further (not golfed!)

Tested with MRVA, it finds two issues.
-
this appears to be a validly flagged example of relying on implementation-specific behavior.
-
this macro -- resulting in dozens of reports, not worth handling here but further evidence for the value of a parameterized module to handle this -- which seems like a reasonable way of ensuring 64bit union size. I think this by rule text (and, to a lesser extent, rule intent as well?) this declaration is non compliant and correctly flagged.

Agree on all those points 👍
