Hi Song, Can you try with this: https://github.com/puranjaymohan/kpatch/tree/arm64_wip This has the .sframe logic patch, but it looks as if I wrote that code in a 30 minute leetcode interview. I need to refactor it before I send it for review with the main PR. Can you test with this branch with your setup? Thanks, Puranjay
