Clang 23 introduces several major improvements: 1. Support for multiple arguments in the `guarded_by` and `pt_guarded_by` attributes [1]. This allows defining variables protected by multiple context locks, where read access requires holding at least one lock (shared or exclusive), and write access requires holding all of them exclusively. 2. Function pointer support [2]. We can now add attributes to function pointers just like we do on normal functions. 3. A fix to use arrays of locks [3]. Each index is now correctly treated as a separate lock instance. 4. A fix for implicit member access in attributes [4]. This allows to use __guarded_by(&foo->lock) correctly. Overall that makes it worthwhile bumping the compiler version instead of trying to make both Clang 22 and later work while supporting these new features.
