avoid the random memory barrier issue in mmap testing on Arm64
There is a new random issue on some Arm64 machines.
This scene can be summarized as following:
Sometimes, the content of the func() pointer is still 0 opcode.
The probability of this kind of issue is very low,
currently only available on some machines.
After inserting a simple memory barrier, this issue was gone.
The code to directly use the memory barrier is as follows:
memcpy(reinterpret_cast<void*>(addr), machine_code, sizeof(machine_code));
isb()
func = reinterpret_cast<uint32_t (*)(void)>(addr);
