What is claimed is: 1. A system, comprising: an internal combustion engine having a combustion chamber with a piston located therein; an intake passage coupled to the combustion chamber, wherein the intake passage supplies intake air to the combustion chamber; an adjustable compressor arranged in the intake passage upstream of the combustion chamber; a throttle arranged in the intake passage upstream of the compressor; and a controller configured to operate the engine so that, at least under some conditions, the piston compresses a homogeneous air and fuel mixture within the combustion chamber to attain substantial auto-ignition of the mixture; and to increase a boosting of the compressor to increase heating of the intake air, and to decrease the boosting to decrease heating of the intake air, while throttling the intake air with the throttle; wherein said controller adjusts said throttling and boosting in response to auto-ignition timing and wherein the controller is further configured to adjust a throttle position and a compressor condition so that a decrease of temperature of the intake air across the throttle is less than an increase of temperature of the intake air across the compressor. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein boosting of the compressor is adjusted by adjusting a bypass around the compressor. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein the bypass around the compressor is adjusted based on at least a desired airflow and a pressure difference between an inlet and an outlet of the compressor. 4. The system of claim 3, wherein the controller is further configured to adjust the throttle so that the intake air flowing through the throttle is choked at least under one condition. 5. The system of claim 3, wherein a pressure of the intake air at an output of the compressor is approximately equal to or less than a pressure upstream of the throttle, at least under some conditions. 6. The system of claim 1, further comprising an exhaust passage coupled to the combustion chamber and a turbine coupled in the exhaust passage, wherein the turbine is coupled to the compressor. 7. The system of claim 6, wherein said controller further adjusts said turbine in response to auto-ignition timing. 8. The system of claim 7, wherein said turbine is adjusted by adjusting a bypass around the turbine. 9. The system of claim 7, wherein said turbine is adjusted by adjusting vanes of the turbine. 10. An engine, comprising: a combustion chamber; a piston disposed within the combustion chamber configured to compress a mixture of air and fuel; an intake passage communicating with the combustion chamber configured to supply air to the combustion chamber; an exhaust passage coupled to the combustion chamber configured to exhaust combustion products from the combustion chamber; an exhaust valve arranged between the combustion chamber and the exhaust passage, wherein the exhaust valve is configured to open and close to control a flow of combustion products from the combustion chamber into the exhaust passage; a compressor arranged in the intake passage upstream of the combustion chamber, wherein the compressor is configured to impart heating to the airflow; a variable geometry turbine coupled to the compressor and arranged in the exhaust passage downstream of the combustion chamber, wherein adjusting a condition of the turbine causes a condition of the compressor to vary; a throttle arranged in the intake passage upstream of the compressor; and a controller configured to adjust an operating condition of the engine so that the piston compresses the mixture of air and fuel to achieve auto-ignition of the mixture, adjust the throttle so that an airflow through the throttle is choked, adjust the geometry of the turbine to vary an amount of said heating imparted to the airflow to control a timing of said auto-ignition, and adjust at least one of a timing and a lift of the exhaust valve to control an amount of combustion residual remaining in the combustion chamber. 11. The engine of claim 10, further comprising a charge motion valve arranged in the intake passage between the compressor and the combustion chamber, wherein the charge motion valve is configured vary a condition of the air supplied to the combustion chamber. 12. The engine of claim 11, wherein the controller is further configured to adjust a condition of the charge motion valve to control the timing of said auto-ignition.
