Struct LexState 

pub struct LexState {

    pub current: i32,
    pub linenumber: i32,
    pub lastline: i32,
    pub t: Token,
    pub lookahead: Token,

    pub dyd: Option<()>,
    pub source: GcRef<LuaString>,
    pub envn: GcRef<LuaString>,
}

Per-chunk lexer (and shared parser) state.

Corresponds to LexState in llex.h. Owns the input stream, token buffer, and current/lookahead tokens.

C mapping (types.tsv)

LexState.current    → current: i32        (charint; -1 = EOZ)
LexState.linenumber → linenumber: i32
LexState.lastline   → lastline: i32
LexState.t          → t: Token            (current token)
LexState.lookahead  → lookahead: Token    (one-token lookahead)
LexState.fs         → fs: Option<Box<FuncState>>   (parser state)
LexState.L          → (removed; callers pass &mut LuaState)
LexState.z          → z: ZIO              (owned input stream)
LexState.buff       → buff: LexBuffer     (owned token-text buffer)
LexState.h          → h: GcRef<LuaTable>  (string-anchor table)
LexState.dyd        → dyd: DynData        (parser dynamic data)
LexState.source     → source: GcRef<LuaString>
LexState.envn       → envn: GcRef<LuaString>

long_str_anchor: HashMap<Vec<u8>, GcRef<LuaString>>

Per-parse-session anchor for long strings. C-Lua’s ls->h is a Lua table that deduplicates all literal strings within a chunk (both short and long), so e.g. local s1 <const>="..." and local s2 <const>="..." with identical 50-byte payloads share one TString object — which is what makes string.format("%p", s1) == string.format("%p", s2) hold. Short strings already share identity via the global interned_lt pool, but long strings (>LUAI_MAXSHORTLEN = 40) are not globally interned and need this session-level map. Keyed by the string bytes; populated lazily by new_string.
