19 Functions in C++

The jit_function class provides a C++ counterpart to the C jit_function_t type. See section Building and compiling functions with the JIT, for more information on creating and managing functions.

The jit_function class also provides a large number of methods for creating the instructions within a function body. See section Working with instructions in the JIT, for more information on creating and managing instructions.

Constructor on jit_function: jit_function (jit_context& context, jit_type_t signature)

Constructs a new function handler with the specified signature in the given context. It then calls create(signature) to create the actual function.

Constructor on jit_function: jit_function (jit_context& context)

Constructs a new function handler in the specified context. The actual function is not created until you call create().

Constructor on jit_function: jit_function (jit_function_t func)

Constructs a new function handler and wraps it around the specified raw C jit_function_t object. This can be useful for layering the C++ on-demand building facility on top of an existing C function.

Destructor on jit_function: ~jit_function ()

Destroy this function handler. The raw function will persist until the context is destroyed.

Method on jit_function: jit_function_t raw () const

Get the raw C jit_function_t value that underlies this object.

Method on jit_function: int is_valid () const

Determine if the raw C jit_function_t value that underlies this object is valid.

Method on jit_function: static jit_function * from_raw (jit_function_t func)

Find the C++ jit_function object that is associated with a raw C jit_function_t pointer. Returns NULL if there is no such object.

Method on jit_function: jit_type_t signature () const

Get the signature type for this function.

Method on jit_function: void create (jit_type_t signature)

Create this function if it doesn’t already exist.

Method on jit_function: void create ()

Create this function if it doesn’t already exist. This version will call the virtual create_signature() method to obtain the signature from the subclass.

Method on jit_function: int compile ()

Compile this function explicity. You normally don’t need to use this method because the function will be compiled on-demand. If you do choose to build the function manually, then the correct sequence of operations is as follows:

1. Invoke the build_start method to lock down the function builder.
2. Build the function by calling the value-related and instruction-related methods within jit_function.
3. Compile the function with the compile method.
4. Unlock the function builder by invoking build_end.

Method on jit_function: int is_compiled () const

Determine if this function has already been compiled.

Method on jit_function: void set_optimization_level (unsigned int level)

Method on jit_function: unsigned int optimization_level () const

Set or get the optimization level for this function.

Method on jit_function: static unsigned int max_optimization_level ()

Get the maximum optimization level for libjit.

Method on jit_function: void * closure () const

Method on jit_function: void * vtable_pointer () const

Get the closure or vtable pointer form of this function.

Method on jit_function: int apply (void** args, void* result)

Method on jit_function: int apply (jit_type_t signature, void** args, void* return_area)

Call this function, applying the specified arguments.

Method on jit_function: static jit_type_t signature_helper (jit_type_t return_type, ...)

You can call this method from create_signature() to help build the correct signature for your function. The first parameter is the return type, following by zero or more types for the parameters. The parameter list is terminated with the special value jit_function::end_params.

A maximum of 32 parameter types can be supplied, and the signature ABI is always set to jit_abi_cdecl.

Method on jit_function: void build ()

This method is called when the function has to be build on-demand, or in response to an explicit recompile request. You build the function by calling the value-related and instruction-related methods within jit_function that are described below.

The default implementation of build will fail, so you must override it if you didn’t build the function manually and call compile.

Method on jit_function: jit_type_t create_signature ()

This method is called by create() to create the function’s signature. The default implementation creates a signature that returns void and has no parameters.

Method on jit_function: void fail ()

This method can be called by build to fail the on-demand compilation process. It throws an exception to unwind the build.

Method on jit_function: void out_of_memory ()

This method can be called by build to indicate that the on-demand compilation process ran out of memory. It throws an exception to unwind the build.

Method on jit_function: void build_start ()

Start an explicit build process. Not needed if you will be using on-demand compilation.

Method on jit_function: void build_end ()

End an explicit build process.
