+// EmuPAC implements runtime emulation of PAC instructions. If the current
+// CPU supports PAC, EmuPAC uses real PAC instructions. Otherwise, it uses the
+// emulation, which is effectively an implementation of PAC with an IMPDEF
+// hashing scheme based on SipHash_1_3.
+//
+// The purpose of the emulation is to allow programs to be built to be portable
+// to machines without PAC support, with some performance loss and increased
+// probability of false positives (due to not being able to portably determine
+// the VA size), while being functionally almost equivalent to running on a
+// machine with PAC support. One example of a use case is if PAC is used in
+// production as a security mitigation, but the testing environment is
+// heterogeneous (i.e. some machines lack PAC support). In this case we would
+// like the testing machines to be able to detect issues resulting
+// from the use of PAC instructions that would affect production by running
+// tests. This can be achieved by building test binaries with EmuPAC and
+// production binaries with real PAC.
+//
+// The emulation assumes that the VA size is at most 48 bits. The architecture
+// as of ARMv8.2, which was the last architecture version in which PAC was not
+// mandatory, permitted VA size up to 52 bits via ARMv8.2-LVA, but we are
+// unaware of an ARMv8.2 CPU that implemented ARMv8.2-LVA.

[nit] According to LLVM naming convention, this probably should be simply 
`MaxVASize`, `PACMask`, `TTBR1Mask`.
