+// W^X-compliant trampoline pool implementation.
+//
+// This file implements a runtime trampoline pool that maintains separate
+// memory regions for executable code (RX) and writable data (RW).
+//
+// On Linux the code region transitions RW → RX (never simultaneously W+X).
+// On macOS Apple Silicon the code region uses MAP_JIT with per-thread W^X
+// toggling via pthread_jit_write_protect_np, so the mapping permissions
+// include both W and X but hardware enforces that only one is active at
+// a time on any given thread.
+//
+// Architecture:
+//   - Code region (RX): Contains pre-assembled trampoline stubs that load
+//     callee address and static chain from a paired TDATA entry, then jump
+//     to the callee with the static chain in the appropriate register.
+//   - Data region (RW): Contains TrampolineData entries with {callee_address,
+//     static_chain_address} pairs, one per trampoline slot.
+//   - Free list: Tracks available trampoline slots for O(1) alloc/free.
+//
+// Thread safety: Uses Fortran::runtime::Lock (pthreads on POSIX,
+// CRITICAL_SECTION on Windows) — not std::mutex — to avoid C++ runtime
+// library dependence. A single global lock serializes pool operations.
+// This is a deliberate V1 design choice to keep the initial W^X
+// architectural change minimal. Per-thread lock-free pools are deferred
+// to a future optimization patch.
+//
+// AddressSanitizer note: The trampoline code region is allocated via
+// mmap (not malloc/new), so ASan does not track it. The data region
+// and handles are allocated via malloc (through AllocateMemoryOrCrash),
+// which ASan intercepts normally. No special annotations are needed.
+//
+// See flang/docs/InternalProcedureTrampolines.md for design details.

Thanks for pointing this out. The implementation uses a self-contained fixed 
pool rather than libffi’s trampoline-table approach. I’ll update the 
documentation to reflect the current behavior, including `scratch`. think an 
alternative trampoline design would be better discussed and evaluated as a 
separate follow-up. For transparency, AI tooling assisted with parts of this 
change.
