 Clang emits ``kcfi_type`` metadata nodes for address-taken functions with
 ``-fsanitize=kcfi``.
 
+.. _md_memprof:
+
+'``memprof``' Metadata
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The ``memprof`` metadata is used to record memory profile data on heap
+allocation calls. Multiple context-sensitive profiles can be represented
+with a single ``memprof`` metadata attachment.
+
+Example:
+
+.. code-block:: text
+
+    %call = call ptr @_Znam(i64 10), !memprof !0, !callsite !5
+    !0 = !{!1, !3}
+    !1 = !{!2, !"cold"}
+    !2 = !{i64 4854880825882961848, i64 1905834578520680781}
+    !3 = !{!4, !"notcold"}
+    !4 = !{i64 4854880825882961848, i64 -6528110295079665978}
+    !5 = !{i64 4854880825882961848}
+
+Each operand in the ``memprof`` metadata attachment describes the profiled
+behavior of memory allocated by the associated allocation for a given context.
+In the above example, there were 2 profiled contexts, one allocating memory
+that was typically cold and one allocating memory that was typically not cold.
+
+The format of the metadata describing a context specific profile (e.g.
+``!1`` and ``!3`` above) requires a first operand that is a metadata node
+describing the context, followed by a list of string metadata tags describing
+the profile behavior (e.g. ``cold`` and ``notcold``) above. The metadata nodes
+describing the context (e.g. ``!2`` and ``!4`` above) are unique ids
+corresponding to callsites, which can be matched to associated IR calls via
+:ref:`callsite metadata<md_callsite>`. In practice these ids are formed via
+a hash of the callsite's debug info, and the associated call may be in a
+different module. The contexts are listed in order from leaf-most call (the
+allocation itself) to the outermost callsite context required for uniquely
+identifying the described profile behavior (note this may not be the top of
+the profiled call stack).
+
+.. _md_callsite:
+
+'``callsite``' Metadata
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The ``callsite`` metadata is used to identify callsites involved in memory
+profile contexts described in :ref:`memprof metadata<md_memprof>`.
+
+It is attached both to the profile allocation calls (see the example in
+:ref:`memprof metadata<md_memprof>`), as well as to other callsites
+in profiled contexts described in heap allocation ``memprof`` metadata.
+
+Example:
+
+.. code-block:: text
+
+    %call = call ptr @_Z1Bb(void), !callsite !0
+    !0 = !{i64 -6528110295079665978, i64 5462047985461644151}
+
+Each operand in the ``callsite`` metadata attachment is a unique id
+corresponding to a callsite (possibly inlined). In practice these ids are
+formed via a hash of the callsite's debug info. If the call was not inlined
+into any callers it will contain a single operand (id). If it was inlined
+it will contain a list of ids, including the ids of the callsites in the
+full inline sequence, in order from the leaf-most call's id to the outermost
+inlined call.
