17 This function provides control over the memory used by JIT as a run-
18 time stack when pcre2_match() or pcre2_jit_match() is called with a
19 pattern that has been successfully processed by the JIT compiler. The
20 information that determines which stack is used is put into a match
21 context that is subsequently passed to a matching function. The argu‐
22 ments of this function are:
23
24 mcontext a pointer to a match context
25 callback a callback function
26 callback_data a JIT stack or a value to be passed to the callback
27
28 If callback is NULL and callback_data is NULL, an internal 32K block on
29 the machine stack is used.
30
31 If callback is NULL and callback_data is not NULL, callback_data must
32 be a valid JIT stack, the result of calling pcre2_jit_stack_create().
33
34 If callback not NULL, it is called with callback_data as an argument at
35 the start of matching, in order to set up a JIT stack. If the result is
36 NULL, the internal 32K stack is used; otherwise the return value must
37 be a valid JIT stack, the result of calling pcre2_jit_stack_create().
38
39 You may safely use the same JIT stack for multiple patterns, as long as
40 they are all matched in the same thread. In a multithread application,
41 each thread must use its own JIT stack. For more details, see the
42 pcre2jit page.

45 page and a description of the POSIX API in the pcre2posix page.
