The main chunk is only run once when the moduleis loaded for the first time. There is no point in compiling it.</p><p>You might want to adapt this behaviour if you use your own utilityfunctions (and not <tt>require()</tt>) to load modules.</p><p>Note that the subfunctions defined in a loaded module <em>are</em>of course compiled. See below if you want to override this.</p><h2>The jit.* Library</h2><p>This library holds several functions to control the behaviourof the JIT engine.</p><h3 id="jit_onoff"><tt>jit.on()<br>jit.off()</tt></h3><p>Turns the JIT engine on (default) or off.</p><p>These functions are typically used with the command line options<tt>-j on</tt> or <tt>-j off</tt>.</p><h3 id="jit_onoff_func"><tt>jit.on(func|true [,true|false])<br>jit.off(func|true [,true|false])</tt></h3><p>Enable (with <tt>jit.on</tt>, default) or disable (with <tt>jit.off</tt>)JIT compilation for a Lua function. The current function (the Lua functioncalling this library function) can be specified with <tt>true</tt>.</p><p>If the second argument is <tt>true</tt>, JIT compilation is alsoenabled/disabled recursively for all subfunctions of a function.With <tt>false</tt> only the subfunctions are affected.</p><p>Both library functions only set a flag which is checked whenthe function is executed for the first/next time. They do nottrigger immediate compilation.</p><p>Typical usage is <tt>jit.off(true, true)</tt> in the main chunkof a module to turn off JIT compilation for the whole module.Note that <tt>require()</tt> already turns off compilation forthe main chunk itself.</p><h3 id="jit_compile"><tt>status = jit.compile(func [,args...])</tt></h3><p>Compiles a Lua function and returns the compilation status.Successful compilation is indicated with a <tt>nil</tt> status.Failure is indicated with a numeric status (see <tt>jit.util.status</tt>).</p><p>The optimizer pass of the compiler tries to derive hints from thepassed arguments. Not passing any arguments or passing untypicalarguments (esp. the wrong types) reduces the efficiency of theoptimizer. The compiled function will still run, but probably notwith maximum speed.</p><p>This library function is typically used for Ahead-Of-Time (AOT)compilation of time-critical functions or for testing/debugging.</p><h3 id="jit_compilesub"><tt>status = jit.compilesub(func|true [,true])</tt></h3><p>Recursively compile all subfunctions of a Lua function.The current function (the Lua function calling this library function)can be specified with <tt>true</tt>. Note that the function<em>itself</em> is not compiled (use <tt>jit.compile()</tt>).</p><p>If the second argument is <tt>true</tt>, compilation will stopwhen the first error is encountered. Otherwise compilation willcontinue with the next subfunction.</p><p>The returned status is <tt>nil</tt>, if all subfunctions have beencompiled successfully. A numeric status (see <tt>jit.util.status</tt>)indicates that at least one compilation failed and gives the statusof the last failure (this is only helpful when stop on erroris <tt>true</tt>).</p><h3 id="jit_debug"><tt>jit.debug([level])</tt></h3><p>Set the debug level for JIT compilation. If no <tt>level</tt> is given,the maximum debug level is set.</p><ul><li>Level 0 disables debugging: no checks for hooks are compiledinto the code. This is the default when LuaJIT is started andprovides the maximum performance.</li><li>Level 1 enables function call debugging: call hooks andreturn hooks are checked in the function prologue and epilogue.This slows down function calls somewhat (by up to 10%).</li><li>Level 2 enables full debugging: all hooks are checked.This slows down execution quite a bit, even when the hooksare not active.</li></ul><p>Note that some compiler optimizations are turned off whendebugging is enabled.</p><p>This function is typically used with the command line options<tt>-j debug</tt> or <tt>-j debug=level</tt>.</p><h3 id="jit_attach"><tt>jit.attach(handler [, priority])</tt></h3><p>Attach a handler to the compiler pipeline with the given priority.The handler is detached if no priority is given.</p><p>The inner workings of the compiler pipeline and the API for handlersare still in flux. Please see the source code for more details.</p><h3 id="jit_version"><tt>jit.version</tt></h3><p>Contains the LuaJIT version string.</p><h3 id="jit_version_num"><tt>jit.version_num</tt></h3><p>Contains the version number of the LuaJIT core. Version xx.yy.zzis represented by the decimal number xxyyzz.</p><h3 id="jit_arch"><tt>jit.arch</tt></h3><p>Contains the target architecture name (CPU and optional ABI).</p><h2 id="jit_util">The jit.util.* Library</h2><p>This library holds many utility functions used by the providedextension modules for LuaJIT (e.g. the optimizer). The API maychange in future versions.</p><h3 id="jit_util_stats"><tt>stats = jit.util.stats(func)</tt></h3><p>Retrieves information about a function. Returns <tt>nil</tt>for C functions. Returns a table with the following fields forLua functions:</p><ul><li><tt>status</tt>: numeric compilation status (see <tt>jit.util.status</tt>).</li><li><tt>stackslots</tt>: number of stack slots.</li><li><tt>params</tt>: number of fixed parameters (arguments).</li><li><tt>consts</tt>: number of constants.</li><li><tt>upvalues</tt>: number of upvalues.</li><li><tt>subs</tt>: number of subfunctions (sub prototypes).</li><li><tt>bytecodes</tt>: number of bytecode instructions.</li><li><tt>isvararg</tt>: fixarg (false) or vararg (true) function.</li><li><tt>env</tt>: function environment table.</li><li><tt>mcodesize</tt>: size of the compiled machine code.</li><li><tt>mcodeaddr</tt>: start address of the compiled machine code.</li></ul><p><tt>mcodesize</tt> and <tt>mcodeaddr</tt> are not set if thefunction has not been compiled (yet).</p><h3 id="jit_util_bytecode"><tt>op, a, b, c, test = jit.util.bytecode(func, pc)</tt></h3><p>Returns the fields of the bytecode instruction at the given <tt>pc</tt>for a Lua function. The first instruction is at <tt>pc</tt> = 1.Nothing is returned if <tt>pc</tt> is out of range.</p><p>The opcode name is returned as an uppercase string in <tt>op</tt>.The opcode arguments are returned as <tt>a</tt>, <tt>b</tt> andoptionally <tt>c</tt>. Arguments that indicate an index into thearray of constants are translated to negative numbers (the firstconstant is referred to with -1). Branch targets are signed numbersrelative to the next instruction.</p><p><tt>test</tt> is true if the instruction is a test (i.e. followedby a JMP).</p><h3 id="jit_util_const"><tt>const, ok = jit.util.const(func, idx)</tt></h3><p>Returns a constant from the array of constants for a Lua function.<tt>ok</tt> is true if <tt>idx</tt> is in range.
