* Leverage Cargo's workspace inheritance feature
This commit is an attempt to reduce the complexity of the Cargo
manifests in this repository with Cargo's workspace-inheritance feature
becoming stable in Rust 1.64.0. This feature allows specifying fields in
the root workspace `Cargo.toml` which are then reused throughout the
workspace. For example this PR shares definitions such as:
* All of the Wasmtime-family of crates now use `version.workspace =
true` to have a single location which defines the version number.
* All crates use `edition.workspace = true` to have one default edition
for the entire workspace.
* Common dependencies are listed in `[workspace.dependencies]` to avoid
typing the same version number in a lot of different places (e.g. the
`wasmparser = "0.89.0"` is now in just one spot.
Currently the workspace-inheritance feature doesn't allow having two
different versions to inherit, so all of the Cranelift-family of crates
still manually specify their version. The inter-crate dependencies,
however, are shared amongst the root workspace.
This feature can be seen as a method of "preprocessing" of sorts for
Cargo manifests. This will help us develop Wasmtime but shouldn't have
any actual impact on the published artifacts -- everything's dependency
lists are still the same.
* Fix wasi-crypto tests
This commit replaces #4869 and represents the actual version bump that
should have happened had I remembered to bump the in-tree version of
Wasmtime to 1.0.0 prior to the branch-cut date. Alas!
* Update tracing-core to a version which doesn't depend on lazy-static.
* Update crossbeam-utils to a version that doesn't depend on lazy-static.
* Update crossbeam-epoch to a version that doesn't depend on lazy-static.
* Update clap to a version that doesn't depend on lazy-static.
* Convert Wasmtime's own use of lazy_static to once_cell.
* Make `GDB_REGISTRATION`'s comment a doc comment.
* Fix compilation on Windows.
* Update to clap 3.0
This commit migrates all CLI commands internally used in this project
from structopt/clap2 to clap 3. The intent here is to ensure that we're
using maintained versions of the dependencies as structopt and clap 2
are less maintained nowadays. Most transitions were pretty
straightforward and mostly dealing with structopt/clap3 differences.
* Fix a number of `cargo deny` errors
This commit fixes a few errors around duplicate dependencies which
arose from the prior update to clap3. This also uses a new feature in
`deny.toml`, `skip-tree`, which allows having a bit more targeted
ignores for skips of duplicate version checks. This showed a few more
locations in Wasmtime itself where we could update some dependencies.
* Upgrade all crates to the Rust 2021 edition
I've personally started using the new format strings for things like
`panic!("some message {foo}")` or similar and have been upgrading crates
on a case-by-case basis, but I think it probably makes more sense to go
ahead and blanket upgrade everything so 2021 features are always
available.
* Fix compile of the C API
* Fix a warning
* Fix another warning
* Bump to 0.36.0
* Add a two-week delay to Wasmtime's release process
This commit is a proposal to update Wasmtime's release process with a
two-week delay from branching a release until it's actually officially
released. We've had two issues lately that came up which led to this proposal:
* In #3915 it was realized that changes just before the 0.35.0 release
weren't enough for an embedding use case, but the PR didn't meet the
expectations for a full patch release.
* At Fastly we were about to start rolling out a new version of Wasmtime
when over the weekend the fuzz bug #3951 was found. This led to the
desire internally to have a "must have been fuzzed for this long"
period of time for Wasmtime changes which we felt were better
reflected in the release process itself rather than something about
Fastly's own integration with Wasmtime.
This commit updates the automation for releases to unconditionally
create a `release-X.Y.Z` branch on the 5th of every month. The actual
release from this branch is then performed on the 20th of every month,
roughly two weeks later. This should provide a period of time to ensure
that all changes in a release are fuzzed for at least two weeks and
avoid any further surprises. This should also help with any last-minute
changes made just before a release if they need tweaking since
backporting to a not-yet-released branch is much easier.
Overall there are some new properties about Wasmtime with this proposal
as well:
* The `main` branch will always have a section in `RELEASES.md` which is
listed as "Unreleased" for us to fill out.
* The `main` branch will always be a version ahead of the latest
release. For example it will be bump pre-emptively as part of the
release process on the 5th where if `release-2.0.0` was created then
the `main` branch will have 3.0.0 Wasmtime.
* Dates for major versions are automatically updated in the
`RELEASES.md` notes.
The associated documentation for our release process is updated and the
various scripts should all be updated now as well with this commit.
* Add notes on a security patch
* Clarify security fixes shouldn't be previewed early on CI
The implementation is pretty straightforward. Wasm atomic instructions fall
into 5 groups
* atomic read-modify-write
* atomic compare-and-swap
* atomic loads
* atomic stores
* fences
and the implementation mirrors that structure, at both the CLIF and AArch64
levels.
At the CLIF level, there are five new instructions, one for each group. Some
comments about these:
* for those that take addresses (all except fences), the address is contained
entirely in a single `Value`; there is no offset field as there is with
normal loads and stores. Wasm atomics require alignment checks, and
removing the offset makes implementation of those checks a bit simpler.
* atomic loads and stores get their own instructions, rather than reusing the
existing load and store instructions, for two reasons:
- per above comment, makes alignment checking simpler
- reuse of existing loads and stores would require extension of `MemFlags`
to indicate atomicity, which sounds semantically unclean. For example,
then *any* instruction carrying `MemFlags` could be marked as atomic, even
in cases where it is meaningless or ambiguous.
* I tried to specify, in comments, the behaviour of these instructions as
tightly as I could. Unfortunately there is no way (per my limited CLIF
knowledge) to enforce the constraint that they may only be used on I8, I16,
I32 and I64 types, and in particular not on floating point or vector types.
The translation from Wasm to CLIF, in `code_translator.rs` is unremarkable.
At the AArch64 level, there are also five new instructions, one for each
group. All of them except `::Fence` contain multiple real machine
instructions. Atomic r-m-w and atomic c-a-s are emitted as the usual
load-linked store-conditional loops, guarded at both ends by memory fences.
Atomic loads and stores are emitted as a load preceded by a fence, and a store
followed by a fence, respectively. The amount of fencing may be overkill, but
it reflects exactly what the SM Wasm baseline compiler for AArch64 does.
One reason to implement r-m-w and c-a-s as a single insn which is expanded
only at emission time is that we must be very careful what instructions we
allow in between the load-linked and store-conditional. In particular, we
cannot allow *any* extra memory transactions in there, since -- particularly
on low-end hardware -- that might cause the transaction to fail, hence
deadlocking the generated code. That implies that we can't present the LL/SC
loop to the register allocator as its constituent instructions, since it might
insert spills anywhere. Hence we must present it as a single indivisible
unit, as we do here. It also has the benefit of reducing the total amount of
work the RA has to do.
The only other notable feature of the r-m-w and c-a-s translations into
AArch64 code, is that they both need a scratch register internally. Rather
than faking one up by claiming, in `get_regs` that it modifies an extra
scratch register, and having to have a dummy initialisation of it, these new
instructions (`::LLSC` and `::CAS`) simply use fixed registers in the range
x24-x28. We rely on the RA's ability to coalesce V<-->R copies to make the
cost of the resulting extra copies zero or almost zero. x24-x28 are chosen so
as to be call-clobbered, hence their use is less likely to interfere with long
live ranges that span calls.
One subtlety regarding the use of completely fixed input and output registers
is that we must be careful how the surrounding copy from/to of the arg/result
registers is done. In particular, it is not safe to simply emit copies in
some arbitrary order if one of the arg registers is a real reg. For that
reason, the arguments are first moved into virtual regs if they are not
already there, using a new method `<LowerCtx for Lower>::ensure_in_vreg`.
Again, we rely on coalescing to turn them into no-ops in the common case.
There is also a ridealong fix for the AArch64 lowering case for
`Opcode::Trapif | Opcode::Trapff`, which removes a bug in which two trap insns
in a row were generated.
In the patch as submitted there are 6 "FIXME JRS" comments, which mark things
which I believe to be correct, but for which I would appreciate a second
opinion. Unless otherwise directed, I will remove them for the final commit
but leave the associated code/comments unchanged.
The InsertLane format has an ordering (`value().imm().value()`) and immediate name (`"lane"`) that make it awkward to use for other instructions. This changes the ordering (`value().value().imm()`) and uses the default name (`"imm"`) throughout the codebase.
* Wasmtime 0.15.0 and Cranelift 0.62.0. (#1398)
* Bump more ad-hoc versions.
* Add build.rs to wasi-common's Cargo.toml.
* Update the env var name in more places.
* Remove a redundant echo.
This patch updates or removes all references to the Cranelift repository. It affects links in README documents, issues that were transferred to the Wasmtime repository, CI badges, and a small bunch of sundry items.
