[PATCH] D139395: Add CFI integer types normalization

[Ramon de C Valle via Phabricator via cfe-commits]

rcvalle added a comment.

I elaborated on the reasons why not use a generalized encoding in the design document in the tracking issue https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/89653. The tl;dr; is that it will result in less comprehensive protection by either using a generalized encoding for all C and C++ -compiled code or across the FFI boundary, and will degrade the security of the program when linking foreign Rust-compiled code into a program written in C or C++ because the program previously used a more comprehensive encoding for all its compiled code, not fixing the issue described in the design document and the RFC https://github.com/rcvalle/rfcs/blob/improve-c-types-for-cross-language-cfi/text/0000-improve-c-types-for-cross-language-cfi.md#appendix.
