Thanks! `-fsanitize=function` will indeed become more like `-fsanitize=kcfi`.

There is a big difference that `-fsanitize=function` instrumented code has a 
signature check for compatibility with object files not compiled with 
`-fsanitize=function` (and old implementations of `-fsanitize=function` with a 
difference location to place the signature).
-fsanitize=kcfi doesn't have the compatibility guarantee.
