The first time you said “setjmp/longjmp intrinsics” I thought it was a typo, and that you were talking about the C standard library functions. If you’re actually talking about LLVM intrinsics, are they documented? I don’t see any intrinsics with those names in the language reference (https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html).

Sorry, I certainly didn't mean to be dishonest. I was just repeating
one of the comparisons given by the research paper. Regardless, even
setjmp() uses a structure of 148 bytes in size (on my machine).

Let me repeat. Please take a look at the setjmp/longjmp intrinsics. On
support architectures they boil down to at most 5 pointers.
