Thanks @gafter, so something like https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr/issues/23408 would help unblock this, if my understanding is correct?
This is an issue tracked by the C# LDM team, so they're responsible for tracking it and closing it. The support requested by the feature doesn't currently exist but is...
It’s worth noting that `static` members are “inherited” and accessible from the derived type in other cases. System.Runtime.Intrinsics relies on this to help model the “dependency hierarchy” between the various...
Converting a `Span` to a `T*` is not a safe operation. `Span` has different layouts on different platforms, may be a GC tracked reference, and wouldn't be free from a...
