Research direction

Start by tracing the cinderjit.force_compile() entry point and how it checks the JIT list, then compare that path with decorator-based compilation and JIT-list wildcard handling. Confirm the intended override behavior with a focused reproduction based on the issue's third-party-module and decorator use cases; done means force_compile() can mark an otherwise unlisted function for compilation without breaking existing JIT-list behavior.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

cinder-jit

I noticed that force_compile() fails if the function isn't in the jit list. Would it be reasonable to change that behavior?

Example use case: I'd like to enable jit on some 3rd party modules using jit list wildcards, but within my own code use decorators and force_compile() to mark functions for compile.
