Adds support for lowering clif instructions Fdiv and Fmul
for new vcode backend. Misc adds lowering and test for
sqrtss and removes a redundant to_string() func for the
SseOpcode struct.
This introduces two changes:
- first, a Cargo feature is added to make it possible to use the
Cranelift x64 backend directly from wasmtime's CLI.
- second, when passing a `cranelift-flags` parameter, and the given
parameter's name doesn't exist at the target-independent flag level, try
to set it as a target-dependent setting.
These two changes make it possible to try out the new x64 backend with:
cargo run --features experimental_x64 -- run --cranelift-flags use_new_backend=true -- /path/to/a.wasm
Right now, this will fail because most opcodes required by the
trampolines are actually not implemented yet.
This commit enables `wasmtime_runtime::Table` to internally hold elements of
either `funcref` (all that is currently supported) or `externref` (newly
introduced in this commit).
This commit updates `Table`'s API, but does NOT generally propagate those
changes outwards all the way through the Wasmtime embedding API. It only does
enough to get everything compiling and the current test suite passing. It is
expected that as we implement more of the reference types spec, we will bubble
these changes out and expose them to the embedding API.
This allows us to detect when stack walking has failed to walk the whole stack,
and we are potentially missing on-stack roots, and therefore it would be unsafe
to do a GC because we could free objects too early, leading to use-after-free.
When we detect this scenario, we skip the GC.
For host VM code, we use plain reference counting, where cloning increments
the reference count, and dropping decrements it. We can avoid many of the
on-stack increment/decrement operations that typically plague the
performance of reference counting via Rust's ownership and borrowing system.
Moving a `VMExternRef` avoids mutating its reference count, and borrowing it
either avoids the reference count increment or delays it until if/when the
`VMExternRef` is cloned.
When passing a `VMExternRef` into compiled Wasm code, we don't want to do
reference count mutations for every compiled `local.{get,set}`, nor for
every function call. Therefore, we use a variation of **deferred reference
counting**, where we only mutate reference counts when storing
`VMExternRef`s somewhere that outlives the activation: into a global or
table. Simultaneously, we over-approximate the set of `VMExternRef`s that
are inside Wasm function activations. Periodically, we walk the stack at GC
safe points, and use stack map information to precisely identify the set of
`VMExternRef`s inside Wasm activations. Then we take the difference between
this precise set and our over-approximation, and decrement the reference
count for each of the `VMExternRef`s that are in our over-approximation but
not in the precise set. Finally, the over-approximation is replaced with the
precise set.
The `VMExternRefActivationsTable` implements the over-approximized set of
`VMExternRef`s referenced by Wasm activations. Calling a Wasm function and
passing it a `VMExternRef` moves the `VMExternRef` into the table, and the
compiled Wasm function logically "borrows" the `VMExternRef` from the
table. Similarly, `global.get` and `table.get` operations clone the gotten
`VMExternRef` into the `VMExternRefActivationsTable` and then "borrow" the
reference out of the table.
When a `VMExternRef` is returned to host code from a Wasm function, the host
increments the reference count (because the reference is logically
"borrowed" from the `VMExternRefActivationsTable` and the reference count
from the table will be dropped at the next GC).

This is useful to have to allow resumable_trap to happen in loop
headers, for instance. This is the correct way to implement interrupt
checks in Spidermonkey, which are effectively resumable traps. Previous
implementation was using traps, which is wrong, since traps semantically
can't be resumed after.
This converts an `i32x4` into an `f32x4` with some rounding either by using an AVX512VL/F instruction--VCVTUDQ2PS--or a long sequence of SSE4.1 compatible instructions.
When a load/store instruction needs an address of the form `v0 +
uextend(v1)` or `v0 + sextend(v1)` (or the commuted forms thereof), we
currently generate a separate zero/sign-extend operation and then use a
plain `[rA, rB]` addressing mode. This patch extends `lower_address()`
to look at both addends of an address if it has two addends and a zero
offset, recognize extension operations, and incorporate them directly
into a `[rA, rB, UXTW]` or `[rA, rB, SXTW]` form. This should improve
our performence on WebAssembly workloads, at least, because we often see
a 64-bit linear memory base indexed by a 32-bit (Wasm) pointer value.

When we vendor Cranelift into Firefox, we need to be able to build with
the Firefox CI setup (unless we carry patches on top of upstream).
Unfortunately, the Firefox CI currently appears to build with a slightly
older version of Rust: I can't work out which version exactly, but one
without stable support for `matches!()`.
A recent attempt to version-bump Cranelift failed with build errors at
the two locations in this patch:
https://treeherder.mozilla.org/logviewer.html#/jobs?job_id=305994046&repo=autoland&lineNumber=24829
I also see a bunch of uses of `matches!()` in Peepmatic, but those
crates are not built by Firefox, so we can leave them be for now, I
think.
If stdio is not inherited nor associated with a file, WasiCtxBuilder
tries to open "/dev/null" ("NUL" on Windows) and attach stdio to it.
While most platforms today support those device files, it would be
good to avoid unnecessary access to the host device if possible. This
patch instead uses a virtual Handle that emulates the "NUL" device.
