* Reimplement how unwind information is stored
This commit is a major refactoring of how unwind information is stored
after compilation of a function has finished. Previously we would store
the raw `UnwindInfo` as a result of compilation and this would get
serialized/deserialized alongside the rest of the ELF object that
compilation creates. Whenever functions were registered with
`CodeMemory` this would also result in registering unwinding information
dynamically at runtime, which in the case of Unix, for example, would
dynamically created FDE/CIE entries on-the-fly.
Eventually I'd like to support compiling Wasmtime without Cranelift, but
this means that `UnwindInfo` wouldn't be easily available to decode into
and create unwinding information from. To solve this I've changed the
ELF object created to have the unwinding information encoded into it
ahead-of-time so loading code into memory no longer needs to create
unwinding tables. This change has two different implementations for
Windows/Unix:
* On Windows the implementation was much easier. The unwinding
information on Windows is already stored after the function itself in
the text section. This was actually slightly duplicated in object
building and in code memory allocation. Now the object building
continues to do the same, recording unwinding information after
functions, and code memory no longer manually tracks this.
Additionally Wasmtime will emit a special custom section in the object
file with unwinding information which is the list of
`RUNTIME_FUNCTION` structures that `RtlAddFunctionTable` expects. This
means that the object file has all the information precompiled into it
and registration at runtime is simply passing a few pointers around to
the runtime.
* Unix was a little bit more difficult than Windows. Today a `.eh_frame`
section is created on-the-fly with offsets in FDEs specified as the
absolute address that functions are loaded at. This absolute
address hindered the ability to precompile the FDE into the object
file itself. I've switched how addresses are encoded, though, to using
`DW_EH_PE_pcrel` which means that FDE addresses are now specified
relative to the FDE itself. This means that we can maintain a fixed
offset between the `.eh_frame` loaded in memory and the beginning of
code memory. When doing so this enables precompiling the `.eh_frame`
section into the object file and at runtime when loading an object no
further construction of unwinding information is needed.
The overall result of this commit is that unwinding information is no
longer stored in its cranelift-data-structure form on disk. This means
that this unwinding information format is only present during
compilation, which will make it that much easier to compile out
cranelift in the future.
This commit also significantly refactors `CodeMemory` since the way
unwinding information is handled is not much different from before.
Previously `CodeMemory` was suitable for incrementally adding more and
more functions to it, but nowadays a `CodeMemory` either lives per
module (in which case all functions are known up front) or it's created
once-per-`Func::new` with two trampolines. In both cases we know all
functions up front so the functionality of incrementally adding more and
more segments is no longer needed. This commit removes the ability to
add a function-at-a-time in `CodeMemory` and instead it can now only
load objects in their entirety. A small helper function is added to
build a small object file for trampolines in `Func::new` to handle
allocation there.
Finally, this commit also folds the `wasmtime-obj` crate directly into
the `wasmtime-cranelift` crate and its builder structure to be more
amenable to this strategy of managing unwinding tables.
It is not intentional to have any real functional change as a result of
this commit. This might accelerate loading a module from cache slightly
since less work is needed to manage the unwinding information, but
that's just a side benefit from the main goal of this commit which is to
remove the dependence on cranelift unwinding information being available
at runtime.
* Remove isa reexport from wasmtime-environ
* Trim down reexports of `cranelift-codegen`
Remove everything non-essential so that only the bits which will need to
be refactored out of cranelift remain.
* Fix debug tests
* Review comments
This commit started off by deleting the `cranelift_codegen::settings`
reexport in the `wasmtime-environ` crate and then basically played
whack-a-mole until everything compiled again. The main result of this is
that the `wasmtime-*` family of crates have generally less of a
dependency on the `TargetIsa` trait and type from Cranelift. While the
dependency isn't entirely severed yet this is at least a significant
start.
This commit is intended to be largely refactorings, no functional
changes are intended here. The refactorings are:
* A `CompilerBuilder` trait has been added to `wasmtime_environ` which
server as an abstraction used to create compilers and configure them
in a uniform fashion. The `wasmtime::Config` type now uses this
instead of cranelift-specific settings. The `wasmtime-jit` crate
exports the ability to create a compiler builder from a
`CompilationStrategy`, which only works for Cranelift right now. In a
cranelift-less build of Wasmtime this is expected to return a trait
object that fails all requests to compile.
* The `Compiler` trait in the `wasmtime_environ` crate has been souped
up with a number of methods that Wasmtime and other crates needed.
* The `wasmtime-debug` crate is now moved entirely behind the
`wasmtime-cranelift` crate.
* The `wasmtime-cranelift` crate is now only depended on by the
`wasmtime-jit` crate.
* Wasm types in `cranelift-wasm` no longer contain their IR type,
instead they only contain the `WasmType`. This is required to get
everything to align correctly but will also be required in a future
refactoring where the types used by `cranelift-wasm` will be extracted
to a separate crate.
* I moved around a fair bit of code in `wasmtime-cranelift`.
* Some gdb-specific jit-specific code has moved from `wasmtime-debug` to
`wasmtime-jit`.
* Move all trampoline compilation to `wasmtime-cranelift`
This commit moves compilation of all the trampolines used in wasmtime
behind the `Compiler` trait object to live in `wasmtime-cranelift`. The
long-term goal of this is to enable depending on cranelift *only* from
the `wasmtime-cranelift` crate, so by moving these dependencies we
should make that a little more flexible.
* Fix windows build
* Bump the wasm-tools crates
Pulls in some updates here and there, mostly for updating crates to the
latest version to prepare for later memory64 work.
* Update lightbeam
* Start a high-level architecture document for Wasmtime
This commit cleands up some existing documentation by removing a number
of "noop README files" and starting a high-level overview of the
architecture of Wasmtime. I've placed this documentation under the
contributing section of the book since it seems most useful for possible
contributors.
I've surely left some things out in this pass, and am happy to add more!
* Review comments
* More rewording
* typos
* Update wasm-tools crates
This brings in recent updates, notably including more improvements to
wasm-smith which will hopefully help exercise non-trapping wasm more.
* Fix some wat
* Fully support multiple returns in Wasmtime
For quite some time now Wasmtime has "supported" multiple return values,
but only in the mose bare bones ways. Up until recently you couldn't get
a typed version of functions with multiple return values, and never have
you been able to use `Func::wrap` with functions that return multiple
values. Even recently where `Func::typed` can call functions that return
multiple values it uses a double-indirection by calling a trampoline
which calls the real function.
The underlying reason for this lack of support is that cranelift's ABI
for returning multiple values is not possible to write in Rust. For
example if a wasm function returns two `i32` values there is no Rust (or
C!) function you can write to correspond to that. This commit, however
fixes that.
This commit adds two new ABIs to Cranelift: `WasmtimeSystemV` and
`WasmtimeFastcall`. The intention is that these Wasmtime-specific ABIs
match their corresponding ABI (e.g. `SystemV` or `WindowsFastcall`) for
everything *except* how multiple values are returned. For multiple
return values we simply define our own version of the ABI which Wasmtime
implements, which is that for N return values the first is returned as
if the function only returned that and the latter N-1 return values are
returned via an out-ptr that's the last parameter to the function.
These custom ABIs provides the ability for Wasmtime to bind these in
Rust meaning that `Func::wrap` can now wrap functions that return
multiple values and `Func::typed` no longer uses trampolines when
calling functions that return multiple values. Although there's lots of
internal changes there's no actual changes in the API surface area of
Wasmtime, just a few more impls of more public traits which means that
more types are supported in more places!
Another change made with this PR is a consolidation of how the ABI of
each function in a wasm module is selected. The native `SystemV` ABI,
for example, is more efficient at returning multiple values than the
wasmtime version of the ABI (since more things are in more registers).
To continue to take advantage of this Wasmtime will now classify some
functions in a wasm module with the "fast" ABI. Only functions that are
not reachable externally from the module are classified with the fast
ABI (e.g. those not exported, used in tables, or used with `ref.func`).
This should enable purely internal functions of modules to have a faster
calling convention than those which might be exposed to Wasmtime itself.

* Unwind info is a property of the target, not the ABI
* Remove lightbeam unused imports
* Attempt to fix arm64
* Document new ABIs aren't stable
* Fix filetests to use the right target
* Don't always do 64-bit stores with cranelift
This was overwriting upper bits when 32-bit registers were being stored
into return values, so fix the code inline to do a sized store instead
of one-size-fits-all store.

By doing this, it is easier to see which spec tests currently panic. The new tests correspond to recently-added instructions.
* Fix: ignore new spec tests for all backends
* Consume fuel during function execution
This commit adds codegen infrastructure necessary to instrument wasm
code to consume fuel as it executes. Currently nothing is really done
with the fuel, but that'll come in later commits.
The focus of this commit is to implement the codegen infrastructure
necessary to consume fuel and account for fuel consumed correctly.
* Periodically check remaining fuel in wasm JIT code
This commit enables wasm code to periodically check to see if fuel has
run out. When fuel runs out an intrinsic is called which can do what it
needs to do in the result of fuel running out. For now a trap is thrown
to have at least some semantics in synchronous stores, but another
planned use for this feature is for asynchronous stores to periodically
yield back to the host based on fuel running out.
Checks for remaining fuel happen in the same locations as interrupt
checks, which is to say the start of the function as well as loop
headers.
* Improve codegen by caching `*const VMInterrupts`
The location of the shared interrupt value and fuel value is through a
double-indirection on the vmctx (load through the vmctx and then load
through that pointer). The second pointer in this chain, however, never
changes, so we can alter codegen to account for this and remove some
extraneous load instructions and hopefully reduce some register
pressure even maybe.
* Add tests fuel can abort infinite loops
* More fuzzing with fuel
Use fuel to time out modules in addition to time, using fuzz input to
figure out which.
* Update docs on trapping instructions
* Fix doc links
* Fix a fuzz test
* Change setting fuel to adding fuel
* Fix a doc link
* Squelch some rustdoc warnings
This commit extracts the two implementations of `Compiler` into two
separate crates, `wasmtime-cranelfit` and `wasmtime-lightbeam`. The
`wasmtime-jit` crate then depends on these two and instantiates them
appropriately. The goal here is to start reducing the weight of the
`wasmtime-environ` crate, which currently serves as a common set of
types between all `wasmtime-*` crates. Long-term I'd like to remove the
dependency on Cranelift from `wasmtime-environ`, but that's going to
take a lot more work.
In the meantime I figure it's a good way to get started by separating
out the lightbeam/cranelift function compilers from the
`wasmtime-environ` crate. We can continue to iterate on moving things
out in the future, too.
