These functions loads a shadow value for ``TargetAddr``, finds the

that. ``DiagData`` is an opaque pointer to diagnostic data which is
passed verbatim to ``__cfi_check``, and ``__cfi_slowpath`` passes
``nullptr`` instead.
Compiler-RT library contains reference implementations of slowpath
functions, but they have unresolvable issues with correctness and
performance in the handling of dlopen(). It is recommended that
platforms provide their own implementations, usually as part of libc
or libdl.
