From the output I cannot understand if this instrumentation is working and
there is a problem in Lua, or there is a problem in the tcc instrumentation
code.
I read at https://bellard.org/tcc/tcc-doc.html "Note: -b is only
available on i386"
Does it mean cannot work on intel, 64 bits cpu ?
Nope, that's outdated docu, -b is supposed to work on x86-64. But I fear
you'll have to debug this a bit on your own. Current mob branch should
actually be a bit more verbose in telling where the invalid access is
happening, so it seems you're using an older version; please update to
current git.
In the worst case you can run the whole thing in a debugger and set a
breakpoint on bound_error or tcc_backtrace. In recent mob branch you can
also set the environment variable TCC_BOUNDS_NEVER_FATAL to 1, in which
case the error is only logged but the program keeps running (and possibly
accessing the invalid pointer, which might turn out to be harmless).
Ciao,
Michael.
