Hello everyone,
I've been playing around for a while to get my project linked with LuaJIT for testings. The library compliled without any problems, and I needed to make some minor changes to my source code to get rid of some vanilla Lua dependencies (I used lua_number2integer macro two times in the code). However, the first time I ran it, it crashed with segfault. Valgrind said about some unconditional jumps instead of that which may happen of course. I tried to get into the LuaJIT code to figure out what was going on, but it's not so easy from the first sight. The crash is somehow connected with a run-time error in Lua (I'm calling a non-existent function from a table, not global). The Lua code looks as the following:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
cnt = 0
a() -- <<<<< SEGFAULT HERE!!!!
print 'start!'
if true then
if startTime then
print('RPC rate: ' .. cnt / (env.time() - startTime))
end
else
while true do
if not env.rcall('localhost', env.id() + 1000) then
break
end
end
end
print 'stop!'
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm posting it as is (never mind non-standard calls and libs!) because when I remove arbitrary lines, the error goes away.
So, I decided just to post my gdb output with some details. Please note that prior to debugging, I re-compiled the library with '-O0 -g'.
Unfortunately, I can't discover the details of my project (it's not public) beside mentioning that it's written in C++ and uses coroutines heavily. Furthermore, it is clean and very stable with the native Lua 5.1.
Hope the information could be useful for LuaJIT developers. I am really intending to switch to LuaJIT because maximum performance for Lua code is urgent in my case.
Best regards,
Seny
P.S. here it goes....
