 ## Remarks
 
-When `/hotpatch` is used in compilation, the compiler ensures that the first instruction of each function is at least 2 bytes long, and no jump within the function goes to the first instruction. These conditions are required for hot patching.

 > [!TIP]
 > Arm64 and x64 architectures are always treated as hotpatchable. But you must still link by using `/functionpadmin` to create hotpatchable images for them.
