Dynamic Code Loading from Memory, Storage, CFI, Custom Intents questions

[n85gsj]

I noticed that "chrome:flags" does not load when Cromite is restricted from loading dynamic code from memory and/or storage on GrapheneOS. That OS allows for enabling such restrictions. Can Cromite be made to support such restrictions without having "chrome:flags" break?

Has all work on Control Flow Guard been abandoned until it is fixed/enabled by Google in their native Chromium builds?

How can I use Cromite, but prevent it from using handles to open other apps (such as LibreTorrent torrent links) and prevent Cromite from being used as a WebView browser? I assume I just need to not enable custom intents and not make Cromite a default browser?

I don't have a device with that os, if it was available for the emulator I could check. In the meantime, it is appropriate to ask them.

it would be interesting to see the log or the crash.

currently cfi is only active in linux, in android and windows it is not officially supported. where did you see what you say?

I dropped cfi support because it forces me to develop in non-debug mode, as it is not supported in the debug configuration. I need debug because all dchecks are only active with that configuration. dcheck are checks inserted in the code that allow me to make changes without breaking anything in the chromium logic.
I also have some doubts about the usefulness of using cfi in production builds, maybe I will use it when I have my own tests.

correct, but if you enable ephemeral storage of what you call ‘webviews’, it is better to use cromite.
