+MISRA C:2012 Rule 5.8: Identifiers that define objects or functions with
+external linkage shall be unique.
+
+_Ref 5.8.1_
+ - The Armv9 port (portable/GCC/ARM_AARCH64_ARMV9/portmacro.h) defines macros
+   that redirect `pvPortMalloc` and `vPortFree` to MTE-tagged wrapper functions
+   when `configARMV9_MTE_HEAP == 1`. This keeps MTE heap tagging logic isolated
+   in the port without modifying shared upstream kernel files. An alternative
+   that eliminates this deviation (integrating tagging into heap_4.c) is
+   documented in the source.
+
+#### Rule 11.6
+
+MISRA C:2012 Rule 11.6: A cast shall not be performed between a pointer to void
+and an arithmetic type.
+
+_Ref 11.6.1_
+ - The Armv9 MTE port (portable/GCC/ARM_AARCH64_ARMV9/mte_port.c) casts
+   between pointer and uintptr_t to strip the MTE tag bits (top byte) from
+   tagged pointers before passing them to the underlying allocator. This is
+   required because MTE tags are encoded in pointer bits 56-59 and must be
+   removed to recover the canonical address.
