<description>
You can attach callbacks to a number of compiler events with jit.attach. The callback can be called:
* when a function has been compiled to bytecode ("bc");
* when trace recording starts or stops ("trace");
* as a trace is being recorded ("record");
* or when a trace exits through a side exit ("texit").
Set a callback with jit.attach(callback, "event") and clear the same callback with jit.attach(callback)

<args>
<arg name="callback" type="function">The callback function.
The arguments passed to the callback depend on the event being reported:
* "bc":
<page>function</page> func - The function that's just been recorded
* "trace":
<page>string</page> what - description of the trace event: "flush", "start", "stop", "abort". Available for all events.
<page>number</page> tr - The trace number. Not available for flush.
<page>function</page> func - The function being traced. Available for start and abort.
<page>number</page> pc - The program counter - the bytecode number of the function being recorded (if this a Lua function). Available for start and abort.
<page>number</page> otr - start: the parent trace number if this is a side trace, abort: abort code
<page>string</page> oex - start: the exit number for the parent trace, abort: abort reason (string)
* "record":
<page>number</page> tr - The trace number. Not available for flush.
<page>function</page> func - The function being traced. Available for start and abort.
<page>number</page> pc - The program counter - the bytecode number of the function being recorded (if this a Lua function). Available for start and abort.
<page>number</page> depth - The depth of the inlining of the current bytecode.
* "texit":
<page>number</page> tr - The trace number. Not available for flush.
<page>number</page> ex - The exit number
<page>number</page> ngpr - The number of general-purpose and floating point registers that are active at the exit.
<page>number</page> nfpr - The number of general-purpose and floating point registers that are active at the exit.</arg>
<arg name="event" type="string">The event to hook into.</arg>
