  15. .rs

  17. This function is used to create a stack for use by the code compiled by the JIT
  18. compiler. The first two arguments are a starting size for the stack, and a
  19. maximum size to which it is allowed to grow. The final argument is a general
  20. context, for memory allocation functions, or NULL for standard memory
  21. allocation. The result can be passed to the JIT run-time code by calling
  22. \fBpcre2_jit_stack_assign()\fP to associate the stack with a compiled pattern,
  23. which can then be processed by \fBpcre2_match()\fP or \fBpcre2_jit_match()\fP.
  24. A maximum stack size of 512KiB to 1MiB should be more than enough for any
  25. pattern. For more details, see the
