ARMv8.5 based processors introduce the Memory Tagging Extension (MTE) feature.
MTE is built on top of the ARMv8.0 virtual address tagging TBI
(Top Byte Ignore) feature and allows software to access a 4-bit
allocation tag for each 16-byte granule in the physical address space.
A logical tag is derived from bits 59-56 of the virtual
address used for the memory access. A CPU with MTE enabled will compare
the logical tag against the allocation tag and potentially raise an
tag check fault on mismatch, subject to system registers configuration.

Since ARMv8.9, FEAT_MTE_STORE_ONLY can be used to restrict raise of tag
check fault on store operation only.
For this, application can use PR_MTE_STORE_ONLY flag
when it sets the MTE setting with prctl().

This feature omits tag check for fetch/read operation.
So it might be used not only debugging purpose but also be used
by application requiring strong memory safty in normal env.
