BMS JIT crashes during script compilation

I've been trying to use the Blind Mind Studios' JIT compiler for AS, but never got it working.

My setup is:

  • MSVC 2013
  • 64bit
  • Angelscript version 2.29.1
  • latest version of the JIT (update 23 10 2014)

I'm building these files along with my project:

  • as_jit.cpp
  • virtual_asm_windows.cpp
  • virtual_asm_x64.cpp

I hope thats correct, anything else seemed to cause linker errors.

I'm starting the JIT like this:


asCJITCompiler* jit = new asCJITCompiler(0);
engine->SetEngineProperty(as::asEP_INCLUDE_JIT_INSTRUCTIONS, 1);
engine->SetJITCompiler(jit);

Right after engine creation, before compiling or running any scripts.

The problem is that script compilation crashes every time, if the script is anything even remotely complex. Calling a few print functions works fine, but trying to create even 1 object causes the compilation to crash.

This is the call stack when it crashes:


  KernelBase.dll!000007fefcc8940d() Unknown
  msvcr120d.dll!000007fee439c366() Unknown
> as tests_debug.exe!AngelScript::assembler::Processor::end_short_jump(void * p) Line 547 C++
  as tests_debug.exe!AngelScript::asCJITCompiler::CompileFunction(AngelScript::asIScriptFunction * function, void (AngelScript::asSVMRegisters *, unsigned __int64) * * output) Line 1840 C++
  as tests_debug.exe!AngelScript::asCScriptFunction::JITCompile() Line 1439 C++
  as tests_debug.exe!AngelScript::asCModule::JITCompile() Line 241 C++
  as tests_debug.exe!AngelScript::asCModule::Build() Line 290 C++
  as tests_debug.exe!AngelScript::CScriptBuilder::Build() Line 501 C++
  as tests_debug.exe!AngelScript::CScriptBuilder::BuildModule() Line 104 C++
  as tests_debug.exe!AngelScript::main_contents() Line 19 C++
  as tests_debug.exe!main() Line 47 C++
  [External Code] 

This thing seems to be throwing its exception, because offset is 138 and CHAR_MAX is 127


void assembler::Processor::end_short_jump(void* p) {
  volatile byte* jumpFrom = (volatile byte*)p;
  int64_t offset = ((size_t)op - (size_t)jumpFrom) - 1;
  if(offset < CHAR_MIN || offset > CHAR_MAX)
    throw "Short jump too long.";
  *jumpFrom = (char)offset;
}

Am I doing something wrong or is the JIT broked?

In the future, please report issues with the JIT to the github page. I only check this forum occasionally, while the github page will notify me of new issues.

It looks like the function call being made for the FREE is larger than expected. I'll fix this shortly.

Alright, will do. Thanks man.

Fixed.
