Thank you for reporting this bug.

Right.

I guess you mean *un*poison here.

My understanding is that in the loop above, we are setting the memory
pointed to by frame_shadow_base + { 0, 4, 8, 12, 16} to zero.

And in the code below, we are preparing to set the memory pointed to by
frame_shadow_base + {24, 28} to zero.

Why is r3 invalid?  It's being set to #24, so that the strb r2, [r3]
below writes a zero byte to [r4,#24].

Or what am I missing?

I am guessing that you have a short and self contained example of an
asan error that is caused by a wrong epilogue.  Would it be possible
that you file it so that I can understand better what is going on?

Thanks.
