This also paves the way for unifying TargetIsa and MachBackend, since now they map one to one. In theory the two traits could be merged, which would be nice to limit the number of total concepts. Also they have quite different responsibilities, so it might be fine to keep them separate.
Interestingly, this PR started as removing RegInfo from the TargetIsa trait since the adapter returned a dummy value there. From the fallout, noticed that all Display implementations didn't needed an ISA anymore (since these were only used to render ISA specific registers). Also the whole family of RegInfo / ValueLoc / RegUnit was exclusively used for the old backend, and these could be removed. Notably, some IR instructions needed to be removed, because they were using RegUnit too: this was the oddball of regfill / regmove / regspill / copy_special, which were IR instructions inserted by the old regalloc. Fare thee well!
Cranelift crates have historically been much more verbose with debug-level
logging than most other crates in the Rust ecosystem. We log things like how
many parameters a basic block has, the color of virtual registers during
regalloc, etc. Even for Cranelift hackers, these things are largely only useful
when hacking specifically on Cranelift and looking at a particular test case,
not even when using some Cranelift embedding (such as Wasmtime).
Most of the time, when people want logging for their Rust programs, they do
something like:
RUST_LOG=debug cargo run
This means that they get all that mostly not useful debug logging out of
Cranelift. So they might want to disable logging for Cranelift, or change it to
a higher log level:
RUST_LOG=debug,cranelift=info cargo run
The problem is that this is already more annoying to type that `RUST_LOG=debug`,
and that Cranelift isn't one single crate, so you actually have to play
whack-a-mole with naming all the Cranelift crates off the top of your head,
something more like this:
RUST_LOG=debug,cranelift=info,cranelift_codegen=info,cranelift_wasm=info,...
Therefore, we're changing most of the `debug!` logs into `trace!` logs: anything
that is very Cranelift-internal, unlikely to be useful/meaningful to the
"average" Cranelift embedder, or prints a message for each instruction visited
during a pass. On the other hand, things that just report a one line statistic
for a whole pass, for example, are left as `debug!`. The more verbose the log
messages are, the higher the bar they must clear to be `debug!` rather than
`trace!`.
This is sometimes useful when performing analyses on the generated
machine code: for example, some kinds of code verifiers will want to do
a control-flow analysis, and it is much easier to do this if one does
not have to recover the CFG from the machine code (doing so requires
heavyweight analysis when indirect branches are involved). If one trusts
the control-flow lowering and only needs to verify other properties of
the code, this can be very useful.
* 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.

This PR propagates "value labels" all the way from CLIF to DWARF
metadata on the emitted machine code. The key idea is as follows:
- Translate value-label metadata on the input into "value_label"
pseudo-instructions when lowering into VCode. These
pseudo-instructions take a register as input, denote a value label,
and semantically are like a "move into value label" -- i.e., they
update the current value (as seen by debugging tools) of the given
local. These pseudo-instructions emit no machine code.
- Perform a dataflow analysis *at the machine-code level*, tracking
value-labels that propagate into registers and into [SP+constant]
stack storage. This is a forward dataflow fixpoint analysis where each
storage location can contain a *set* of value labels, and each value
label can reside in a *set* of storage locations. (Meet function is
pairwise intersection by storage location.)
This analysis traces value labels symbolically through loads and
stores and reg-to-reg moves, so it will naturally handle spills and
reloads without knowing anything special about them.
- When this analysis converges, we have, at each machine-code offset, a
mapping from value labels to some number of storage locations; for
each offset for each label, we choose the best location (prefer
registers). Note that we can choose any location, as the symbolic
dataflow analysis is sound and guarantees that the value at the
value_label instruction propagates to all of the named locations.
- Then we can convert this mapping into a format that the DWARF
generation code (wasmtime's debug crate) can use.
This PR also adds the new-backend variant to the gdb tests on CI.
One critical bit of plumbing was missing: the `StackMapSink` passed to
`compile_and_emit` was not actually receiving stackmaps. This seemingly
very basic issue was not caught because the other major user of reftype
support, SpiderMonkey, extracts stackmaps with a lower-level API. The
SM integration was built this way to avoid an awkward API quirk when
passing stackmaps through a `CodeSink` that proxies them to a
`StackMapSink`: the `CodeSink` wants `Value`s for each reference slot,
while the actual `StackMapSink` does not require these. This PR tweaks
the plumbing in a slightly different way to make `wasmtime` GC tests,
and presumably other consumers of stack-map info from the top-level
Cranelift interface, happy.
* Make cranelift_codegen::isa::unwind::input public
* Move UnwindCode's common offset field out of the structure
* Make MachCompileResult::unwind_info more generic
* Record initial stack pointer offset
This allows for more flexibility of when/where to harvest LHS candidates. For
example, we could choose to harvest candidates that overlap with and supercede
our current preopt peepholes.
This commit also makes sure that we compute the CFG before running preopt, when
harvesting LHS candidates via `clif-util souper-harvest`.
Given a clif function, harvest all its integer subexpressions, so that they can
be fed into [Souper](https://github.com/google/souper) as candidates for
superoptimization. For some of these candidates, Souper will successfully
synthesize a right-hand side that is equivalent but has lower cost than the
left-hand side. Then, we can combine these left- and right-hand sides into a
complete optimization, and add it to our peephole passes.
To harvest the expression that produced a given value `x`, we do a post-order
traversal of the dataflow graph starting from `x`. As we do this traversal, we
maintain a map from clif values to their translated Souper values. We stop
traversing when we reach anything that can't be translated into Souper IR: a
memory load, a float-to-int conversion, a block parameter, etc. For values
produced by these instructions, we create a Souper `var`, which is an input
variable to the optimization. For instructions that have a direct mapping into
Souper IR, we get the Souper version of each of its operands and then create the
Souper version of the instruction itself. It should now be clear why we do a
post-order traversal: we need an instruction's translated operands in order to
translate the instruction itself. Once this instruction is translated, we update
the clif-to-souper map with this new translation so that any other instruction
that uses this result as an operand has access to the translated value. When the
traversal is complete we return the translation of `x` as the root of left-hand
side candidate.
This patch includes:
- A complete rework of the way that CLIF blocks and edge blocks are
lowered into VCode blocks. The new mechanism in `BlockLoweringOrder`
computes RPO over the CFG, but with a twist: it merges edge blocks intto
heads or tails of original CLIF blocks wherever possible, and it does
this without ever actually materializing the full nodes-plus-edges
graph first. The backend driver lowers blocks in final order so
there's no need to reshuffle later.
- A new `MachBuffer` that replaces the `MachSection`. This is a special
version of a code-sink that is far more than a humble `Vec<u8>`. In
particular, it keeps a record of label definitions and label uses,
with a machine-pluggable `LabelUse` trait that defines various types
of fixups (basically internal relocations).
Importantly, it implements some simple peephole-style branch rewrites
*inline in the emission pass*, without any separate traversals over
the code to use fallthroughs, swap taken/not-taken arms, etc. It
tracks branches at the tail of the buffer and can (i) remove blocks
that are just unconditional branches (by redirecting the label), (ii)
understand a conditional/unconditional pair and swap the conditional
polarity when it's helpful; and (iii) remove branches that branch to
the fallthrough PC.
The `MachBuffer` also implements branch-island support. On
architectures like AArch64, this is needed to allow conditional
branches within plausibly-attainable ranges (+/- 1MB on AArch64
specifically). It also does this inline while streaming through the
emission, without any sort of fixpoint algorithm or later moving of
code, by simply tracking outstanding references and "deadlines" and
emitting an island just-in-time when we're in danger of going out of
range.
- A rework of the instruction selector driver. This is largely following
the same algorithm as before, but is cleaned up significantly, in
particular in the API: the machine backend can ask for an input arg
and get any of three forms (constant, register, producing
instruction), indicating it needs the register or can merge the
constant or producing instruction as appropriate. This new driver
takes special care to emit constants right at use-sites (and at phi
inputs), minimizing their live-ranges, and also special-cases the
"pinned register" to avoid superfluous moves.
Overall, on `bz2.wasm`, the results are:
wasmtime full run (compile + runtime) of bz2:
baseline: 9774M insns, 9742M cycles, 3.918s
w/ changes: 7012M insns, 6888M cycles, 2.958s (24.5% faster, 28.3% fewer insns)
clif-util wasm compile bz2:
baseline: 2633M insns, 3278M cycles, 1.034s
w/ changes: 2366M insns, 2920M cycles, 0.923s (10.7% faster, 10.1% fewer insns)
All numbers are averages of two runs on an Ampere eMAG.
that only one value ever flows. Has been observed to improve generated code
run times by up to 8%. Compilation cost increases by about 0.6%, but up to 7%
total cost has been observed to be saved; iow it can be a significant win in
terms of compilation time, overall.
This commit makes the following changes to unwind information generation in
Cranelift:
* Remove frame layout change implementation in favor of processing the prologue
and epilogue instructions when unwind information is requested. This also
means this work is no longer performed for Windows, which didn't utilize it.
It also helps simplify the prologue and epilogue generation code.
* Remove the unwind sink implementation that required each unwind information
to be represented in final form. For FDEs, this meant writing a
complete frame table per function, which wastes 20 bytes or so for each
function with duplicate CIEs. This also enables Cranelift users to collect the
unwind information and write it as a single frame table.
* For System V calling convention, the unwind information is no longer stored
in code memory (it's only a requirement for Windows ABI to do so). This allows
for more compact code memory for modules with a lot of functions.
* Deletes some duplicate code relating to frame table generation. Users can
now simply use gimli to create a frame table from each function's unwind
information.
Fixes#1181.
- Undo temporary changes to default features (`all-arch`) and a
signal-handler test.
- Remove `SIGTRAP` handler: no longer needed now that we've found an
"undefined opcode" option on ARM64.
- Rename pp.rs to pretty_print.rs in machinst/.
- Only use empty stack-probe on non-x86. As per a comment in
rust-lang/compiler-builtins [1], LLVM only supports stack probes on
x86 and x86-64. Thus, on any other CPU architecture, we cannot refer
to `__rust_probestack`, because it does not exist.
- Rename arm64 to aarch64.
- Use `target` directive in vcode filetests.
- Run the flags verifier, but without encinfo, when using new backends.
- Clean up warning overrides.
- Fix up use of casts: use u32::from(x) and siblings when possible,
u32::try_from(x).unwrap() when not, to avoid silent truncation.
- Take immutable `Function` borrows as input; we don't actually
mutate the input IR.
- Lots of other miscellaneous cleanups.

This patch ties together the new backend infrastructure with the
existing Cranelift codegen APIs.
With all patches in this series up to this patch applied, the ARM64
compiler is now functional and can be used. Two uses of this
functionality -- filecheck-based tests and integration into wasmtime --
will come in subsequent patches.
Preserve FPRs as required by the Windows fastcall calling convention.
This exposes an implementation limit due to Cranelift's approach to stack layout, which conflicts with expectations Windows makes in SEH layout - functions where the Cranelift user desires fastcall unwind information, that require preservation of an ABI-reserved FPR, that have a stack frame 240 bytes or larger, now produce an error when compiled. Several wasm spectests were disabled because they would trip this limit. This is a temporary constraint that should be fixed promptly.

* Implement emitting Windows unwind information for fastcall functions.
This commit implements emitting Windows unwind information for x64 fastcall
calling convention functions.
The unwind information can be used to construct a Windows function table at
runtime for JIT'd code, enabling stack walking and unwinding by the operating
system.
* Address code review feedback.
This commit addresses code review feedback:
* Remove unnecessary unsafe code.
* Emit the unwind information always as little endian.
* Fix comments.
A dependency from cranelift-codegen to the byteorder crate was added.
The byteorder crate is a no-dependencies crate with a reasonable
abstraction for writing binary data for a specific endianness.
* Address code review feedback.
* Disable default features for the `byteorder` crate.
* Add a comment regarding the Windows ABI unwind code numerical values.
* Panic if we encounter a Windows function with a prologue greater than 256
bytes in size.
This patch:
* removes the "default" opt level, on the basis that it has no definition and
is referred to nowhere in the compiler.
* renames the "fastest" level to "none". The resulting set of transformations
is unchanged.
* renames the "best" level to "speed_and_size". The resulting set of
transformations is unchanged.
* adds a new level, "speed". This is the same as "speed_and_size" except that
it omits transformations aimed only at reducing code size. Currently it
omits only the insn shrinking pass.
Converting something like iadd.i64 on a 32-bits architecture into a
iadd_imm.i64 will result in the instruction being legalized back to an
iadd.i64 later on, creating unnecessary churn.
This commit implements avoid doing so, and changes the target ISA to a
64-bits platform for tests than ran into this, as well as making sure
this won't happen on 32-bits platforms.
When using basic block instructions cannot be added in-between jump instructions which are ending basic blocks. These changes create extra basic blocks such that extra space is available for the spilling and moving registers where they are expected.
-Add resumable_trap, safepoint, isnull, and null instructions
-Add Stackmap struct and StackmapSink trait

The result of the emitter is a vector of bytes holding machine code,
jump tables, and (in the future) other read-only data. Some clients,
notably Firefox's Wasm compiler, needs to separate the machine code
from the data in order to insert more code directly after the code
generated by Cranelift.
To make such separation possible, we record more information about the
emitted bytes: the sizes of each of the sections of code, jump tables,
and read-only data, as well as the locations within the code that
reference (PC-relatively) the jump tables and read-only data.
- Both the `wasm` and `compile` commands get this new subcommand, and it defaults to false. This means that test runs with `wasm` can request disassembly (the main reason I am doing this) while test runs with `compile` now must request it, this changes current behavior.
- Switch to using context.compile_and_emit directly, and make the reloc and trap printers just accumulate output, not print it. This allows us to factor the printing code into the disasm module.
