It depends on what you mean by "failed". Rowhammer is an attack that no (real-life) attacker has ever used, and no real-life attacker will ever use, because there are about, oh, six million much easier ways to get what you want. So while a theoretical defence has failed against a theoretical attack, in practice nothing of value has been lost. (Not saying that it's not a cool attack, just that it's not one we have to worry about. What we do have to worry about is phishing, buffer overflows, SQL and more generally script injection, supply-chain attacks, it's a long list). Peter.
