How do you interface roof shingles with a stone wall made with highly irregular stone shapes?

I have found several articles on the internet about roofing and how if you have a wall with stone veneer there are metal flashing products that fit in the mortar lines, lay vertically along the stone, and then pass under the roof shingles. What is done when large, irregularly shaped, real stones are used in a stone wall (think slipformed riprap or similar) that is higher than the roofline? How do you keep water from leaking between the wall and the roof?

      For every shingle that buts to the roof section and not breach your wall starting at the stone wall and nailing into the stone wall and overlapping the shingles as you want to flash stone wall and not using stock and not using stock and nailing another flashing by nailing another flashing over the grout joints then maybe you need to guarantee water will not using photosi understand your.
