The proposed flags include:

> SP          Indicates the sender is giving the receiver
> permission to do speculative placement.  If this bit is
> set, the receiver MAY do speculative placement.  If not
> set, the receiver MUST NOT do speculative placement. See

> placement.

Why would the *sender* have an interest in mandating that
the receiver not take risks with the *receiver's* memory?

Can the sender specify that the receiver not take risks with
the data by running certain operating systems?
