* wasmtime: Implement fast Wasm stack walking
Why do we want Wasm stack walking to be fast? Because we capture stacks whenever
there is a trap and traps actually happen fairly frequently with short-lived
programs and WASI's `exit`.
Previously, we would rely on generating the system unwind info (e.g.
`.eh_frame`) and using the system unwinder (via the `backtrace`crate) to walk
the full stack and filter out any non-Wasm stack frames. This can,
unfortunately, be slow for two primary reasons:
1. The system unwinder is doing `O(all-kinds-of-frames)` work rather than
`O(wasm-frames)` work.
2. System unwind info and the system unwinder need to be much more general than
a purpose-built stack walker for Wasm needs to be. It has to handle any kind of
stack frame that any compiler might emit where as our Wasm frames are emitted by
Cranelift and always have frame pointers. This translates into implementation
complexity and general overhead. There can also be unnecessary-for-our-use-cases
global synchronization and locks involved, further slowing down stack walking in
the presence of multiple threads trying to capture stacks in parallel.
This commit introduces a purpose-built stack walker for traversing just our Wasm
frames. To find all the sequences of Wasm-to-Wasm stack frames, and ignore
non-Wasm stack frames, we keep a linked list of `(entry stack pointer, exit
frame pointer)` pairs. This linked list is maintained via Wasm-to-host and
host-to-Wasm trampolines. Within a sequence of Wasm-to-Wasm calls, we can use
frame pointers (which Cranelift preserves) to find the next older Wasm frame on
the stack, and we keep doing this until we reach the entry stack pointer,
meaning that the next older frame will be a host frame.
The trampolines need to avoid a couple stumbling blocks. First, they need to be
compiled ahead of time, since we may not have access to a compiler at
runtime (e.g. if the `cranelift` feature is disabled) but still want to be able
to call functions that have already been compiled and get stack traces for those
functions. Usually this means we would compile the appropriate trampolines
inside `Module::new` and the compiled module object would hold the
trampolines. However, we *also* need to support calling host functions that are
wrapped into `wasmtime::Func`s and there doesn't exist *any* ahead-of-time
compiled module object to hold the appropriate trampolines:
```rust
// Define a host function.
let func_type = wasmtime::FuncType::new(
vec![wasmtime::ValType::I32],
vec![wasmtime::ValType::I32],
);
let func = Func::new(&mut store, func_type, |_, params, results| {
// ...
Ok(())
});
// Call that host function.
let mut results = vec![wasmtime::Val::I32(0)];
func.call(&[wasmtime::Val::I32(0)], &mut results)?;
```
Therefore, we define one host-to-Wasm trampoline and one Wasm-to-host trampoline
in assembly that work for all Wasm and host function signatures. These
trampolines are careful to only use volatile registers, avoid touching any
register that is an argument in the calling convention ABI, and tail call to the
target callee function. This allows forwarding any set of arguments and any
returns to and from the callee, while also allowing us to maintain our linked
list of Wasm stack and frame pointers before transferring control to the
callee. These trampolines are not used in Wasm-to-Wasm calls, only when crossing
the host-Wasm boundary, so they do not impose overhead on regular calls. (And if
using one trampoline for all host-Wasm boundary crossing ever breaks branch
prediction enough in the CPU to become any kind of bottleneck, we can do fun
things like have multiple copies of the same trampoline and choose a random copy
for each function, sharding the functions across branch predictor entries.)
Finally, this commit also ends the use of a synthetic `Module` and allocating a
stubbed out `VMContext` for host functions. Instead, we define a
`VMHostFuncContext` with its own magic value, similar to `VMComponentContext`,
specifically for host functions.

<h3>Calls</h3>
There is, however, a small regression in raw Wasm-to-host and host-to-Wasm call
performance due the new trampolines. It seems to be on the order of about 2-10
nanoseconds per call, depending on the benchmark.
I believe this regression is ultimately acceptable because
1. this overhead will be vastly dominated by whatever work a non-nop callee
actually does,
2. we will need these trampolines, or something like them, when implementing the
Wasm exceptions proposal to do things like translate Wasm's exceptions into
Rust's `Result`s,
3. and because the performance improvements to trapping and capturing stack
traces are of such a larger magnitude than this call regressions.

</details>
* Add s390x support for frame pointer-based stack walking
* wasmtime: Allow `Caller::get_export` to get all exports
* fuzzing: Add a fuzz target to check that our stack traces are correct
We generate Wasm modules that keep track of their own stack as they call and
return between functions, and then we periodically check that if the host
captures a backtrace, it matches what the Wasm module has recorded.
* Remove VM offsets for `VMHostFuncContext` since it isn't used by JIT code
* Add doc comment with stack walking implementation notes
* Document the extra state that can be passed to `wasmtime_runtime::Backtrace` methods
* Add extensive comments for stack walking function
* Factor architecture-specific bits of stack walking out into modules
* Initialize store-related fields in a vmctx to null when there is no store yet
Rather than leaving them as uninitialized data.
* Use `set_callee` instead of manually setting the vmctx field
* Use a more informative compile error message for unsupported architectures
* Document unsafety of `prepare_host_to_wasm_trampoline`
* Use `bti c` instead of `hint #34` in inline aarch64 assembly
* Remove outdated TODO comment
* Remove setting of `last_wasm_exit_fp` in `set_jit_trap`
This is no longer needed as the value is plumbed through to the backtrace code
directly now.
* Only set the stack limit once, in the face of re-entrancy into Wasm
* Add comments for s390x-specific stack walking bits
* Use the helper macro for all libcalls
If we forget to use it, and then trigger a GC from the libcall, that means we
could miss stack frames when walking the stack, fail to find live GC refs, and
then get use after free bugs. Much less risky to always use the helper macro
that takes care of all of that for us.
* Use the `asm_sym!` macro in Wasm-to-libcall trampolines
This macro handles the macOS-specific underscore prefix stuff for us.
* wasmtime: add size and align to `externref` assertion error message
* Extend the `stacks` fuzzer to have host frames in between Wasm frames
This way we get one or more contiguous sequences of Wasm frames on the stack,
instead of exactly one.
* Add documentation for aarch64-specific backtrace helpers
* Clarify that we only support little-endian aarch64 in trampoline comment
* Use `.machine z13` in s390x assembly file
Since apparently our CI machines have pretty old assemblers that don't have
`.machine z14`. This should be fine though since these trampolines don't make
use of anything that is introduced in z14.
* Fix aarch64 build
* Fix macOS build
* Document the `asm_sym!` macro
* Add windows support to the `wasmtime-asm-macros` crate
* Add windows support to host<--->Wasm trampolines
* Fix trap handler build on windows
* Run `rustfmt` on s390x trampoline source file
* Temporarily disable some assertions about a trap's backtrace in the component model tests
Follow up to re-enable this and fix the associated issue:
https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/issues/4535
* Refactor libcall definitions with less macros
This refactors the `libcall!` macro to use the
`foreach_builtin_function!` macro to define all of the trampolines.
Additionally the macro surrounding each libcall itself is no longer
necessary and helps avoid too many macros.
* Use `VMOpaqueContext::from_vm_host_func_context` in `VMHostFuncContext::new`
* Move `backtrace` module to be submodule of `traphandlers`
This avoids making some things `pub(crate)` in `traphandlers` that really
shouldn't be.
* Fix macOS aarch64 build
* Use "i64" instead of "word" in aarch64-specific file
* Save/restore entry SP and exit FP/return pointer in the face of panicking imported host functions
Also clean up assertions surrounding our saved entry/exit registers.
* Put "typed" vs "untyped" in the same position of call benchmark names
Regardless if we are doing wasm-to-host or host-to-wasm
* Fix stacks test case generator build for new `wasm-encoder`
* Fix build for s390x
* Expand libcalls in s390x asm
* Disable more parts of component tests now that backtrace assertions are a bit tighter
* Remove assertion that can maybe fail on s390x

This commit builds on bytecodealliance/wasm-tools#690 to add support to
testing of the component model to execute functions when running
`*.wast` files. This support is all built on #4442 as functions are
invoked through a "dynamic" API. Right now the testing and integration
is fairly crude but I'm hoping that we can try to improve it over time
as necessary. For now this should provide a hopefully more convenient
syntax for unit tests and the like.
* Implement variant translation in fused adapters
This commit implements the most general case of variants for fused
adapter trampolines. Additionally a number of other primitive types are
filled out here to assist with testing variants. The implementation
internally was relatively straightforward given the shape of variants,
but there's room for future optimization as necessary especially around
converting locals to various types.
This commit also introduces a "one off" fuzzer for adapters to ensure
that the generated adapter is valid. I hope to extend this fuzz
generator as more types are implemented to assist in various corner
cases that might arise. For now the fuzzer simply tests that the output
wasm module is valid, not that it actually executes correctly. I hope to
integrate with a fuzzer along the lines of #4307 one day to test the
run-time-correctness of the generated adapters as well, at which point
this fuzzer would become obsolete.
Finally this commit also fixes an issue with `u8` translation where
upper bits weren't zero'd out and were passed raw across modules.
Instead smaller-than-32 types now all mask out their upper bits and do
sign-extension as appropriate for unsigned/signed variants.
* Fuzz memory64 in the new trampoline fuzzer
Currently memory64 isn't supported elsewhere in the component model
implementation of Wasmtime but the trampoline compiler seems as good a
place as any to ensure that it at least works in isolation. This plumbs
through fuzz input into a `memory64` boolean which gets fed into
compilation. Some miscellaneous bugs were fixed as a result to ensure
that memory64 trampolines all validate correctly.
* Tweak manifest for doc build
* Remove dependency on `more-asserts`
In my recent adventures to do a bit of gardening on our dependencies I
noticed that there's a new major version for the `more-asserts` crate.
Instead of updating to this though I've opted to instead remove the
dependency since I don't think we heavily lean on this crate and
otherwise one-off prints are probably sufficient to avoid the need for
pulling in a whole crate for this.
* Remove exemption for `more-asserts`
* Add cmake compatibility to c-api
* Add CMake documentation to wasmtime.h
* Add CMake instructions in examples
* Modify CI for CMake support
* Use correct rust in CI
* Trigger build
* Refactor run-examples
* Reintroduce example_to_run in run-examples
* Replace run-examples crate with cmake
* Fix markdown formatting in examples readme
* Fix cmake test quotes
* Build rust wasm before cmake tests
* Pass CTEST_OUTPUT_ON_FAILURE
* Another cmake test
* Handle os differences in cmake test
* Fix bugs in memory and multimemory examples
* wasmtime: Rename host->wasm trampolines
As we introduce new types of trampolines, having clear names for our existing
trampolines will be helpful.
* Fix typo in docs for `VMCOMPONENT_MAGIC`
* wasmtime: Add criterion micro benchmarks for traps
* Bump versions of wasm-tools crates
Note that this leaves new features in the component model, outer type
aliases for core wasm types, unimplemented for now.
* Move to crates.io-based versions of tools
* 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.
* support enums with more than 256 variants in derive macro
This addresses #4361. Technically, we now support up to 2^32 variants, which is
the maximum for the canonical ABI. In practice, though, the derived code for
enums with even just 2^16 variants takes a prohibitively long time to compile.

* Migrate from `winapi` to `windows-sys`
I believe that Microsoft itself is supporting the development of
`windows-sys` and it's also used by `cap-std` now so this switches
Wasmtime's dependencies on Windows APIs from the `winapi` crate to the
`windows-sys` crate. We still have `winapi` in our dependency graph but
that may get phased out over time.
* Make windows-sys a target-specific dependency
This updates to rustix 0.35.6, and updates wasi-common to use cap-std 0.25 and
windows-sys (instead of winapi).
Changes include:
- Better error code mappings on Windows.
- Fixes undefined references to `utimensat` on Darwin.
- Fixes undefined references to `preadv64` and `pwritev64` on Android.
- Updates to io-lifetimes 0.7, which matches the io_safety API in Rust.
- y2038 bug fixes for 32-bit platforms
Cargo recently added the ability to have an optional dependency without
implicitly introducing a new named feature on a crate. This is triggered
with some new directives in the `[features]` section, specifically:
* The `dep:foo` syntax means that `foo` is activated but no implicit
feature should be added named `foo`.
* Additionally `foo?/bar` means that the `bar` feature of `foo` is only
activated if `foo` is otherwise activated elsewhere, for example a
conditional activation.
These two features can help avoid extra feature names showing up that we
don't want (e.g. currently the `wasmtime` crate has a `rayon` feature)
and additionally can help avoid runtime dependencies in niche cases for
us (e.g. activating `all-arch` but disabling `cranelift` would
previously pull-in cranelift but no longer will).
This commit updates the wasm-tools family of crates, notably pulling in
the refactorings and updates from bytecodealliance/wasm-tools#621 for
the latest iteration of the component model. This commit additionally
updates all support for the component model for these changes, notably:
* Many bits and pieces of type information was refactored. Many
`FooTypeIndex` namings are now `TypeFooIndex`. Additionally there is
now `TypeIndex` as well as `ComponentTypeIndex` for the two type index
spaces in a component.
* A number of new sections are now processed to handle the core and
component variants.
* Internal maps were split such as the `funcs` map into
`component_funcs` and `funcs` (same for `instances`).
* Canonical options are now processed individually instead of one bulk
`into` definition.
Overall this was not a major update to the internals of handling the
component model in Wasmtime. Instead this was mostly a surface-level
refactoring to make sure that everything lines up with the new binary
format for components.
* All text syntax used in tests was updated to the new syntax.
Previously, `listenfd` depended on an old version of the `uuid` crate
which caused cargo deny failures.
https://github.com/mitsuhiko/listenfd/pull/13 upgrades the `uuid`
dependency and a new version of `listenfd` is published. This change
moves to the latest version of `listenfd`.

* Initial skeleton of some component model processing
This commit is the first of what will likely be many to implement the
component model proposal in Wasmtime. This will be structured as a
series of incremental commits, most of which haven't been written yet.
My hope is to make this incremental and over time to make this easier to
review and easier to test each step in isolation.
Here much of the skeleton of how components are going to work in
Wasmtime is sketched out. This is not a complete implementation of the
component model so it's not all that useful yet, but some things you can
do are:
* Process the type section into a representation amenable for working
with in Wasmtime.
* Process the module section and register core wasm modules.
* Process the instance section for core wasm modules.
* Process core wasm module imports.
* Process core wasm instance aliasing.
* Ability to compile a component with core wasm embedded.
* Ability to instantiate a component with no imports.
* Ability to get functions from this component.
This is already starting to diverge from the previous module linking
representation where a `Component` will try to avoid unnecessary
metadata about the component and instead internally only have the bare
minimum necessary to instantiate the module. My hope is we can avoid
constructing most of the index spaces during instantiation only for it
to all ge thrown away. Additionally I'm predicting that we'll need to
see through processing where possible to know how to generate adapters
and where they are fused.
At this time you can't actually call a component's functions, and that's
the next PR that I would like to make.
* Add tests for the component model support
This commit uses the recently updated wasm-tools crates to add tests for
the component model added in the previous commit. This involved updating
the `wasmtime-wast` crate for component-model changes. Currently the
component support there is quite primitive, but enough to at least
instantiate components and verify the internals of Wasmtime are all
working correctly. Additionally some simple tests for the embedding API
have also been added.
* Update the wasm-tools family of crates
This commit updates these crates as used by Wasmtime for the recently
published versions to pull in changes necessary to support the component
model. I've split this out from #4005 to make it clear what's impacted
here and #4005 can simply rebase on top of this to pick up the necessary
changes.
* More test fixes
As discussed previously, we need a way to be able to configure Wasmtime when running it in the Sightglass benchmark infrastructure. The easiest way to do this seemed to be to pass a string from Sightglass to the `bench-api` library and parse this in the same way that Wasmtime parses its CLI flags. The structure that contains these flags is `CommonOptions`, so it has been moved to its own crate to be depended on by both `wasmtime-cli` and `wasmtime-bench-api`. Also, this change adds an externally-visible function for parsing a string into `CommonOptions`, which is used for configuring an engine.
* 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.
This commit removes support for the `userfaultfd` or "uffd" syscall on
Linux. This support was originally added for users migrating from Lucet
to Wasmtime, but the recent developments of kernel-supported
copy-on-write support for memory initialization wound up being more
appropriate for these use cases than usefaultfd. The main reason for
moving to copy-on-write initialization are:
* The `userfaultfd` feature was never necessarily intended for this
style of use case with wasm and was susceptible to subtle and rare
bugs that were extremely difficult to track down. We were never 100%
certain that there were kernel bugs related to userfaultfd but the
suspicion never went away.
* Handling faults with userfaultfd was always slow and single-threaded.
Only one thread could handle faults and traveling to user-space to
handle faults is inherently slower than handling them all in the
kernel. The single-threaded aspect in particular presented a
significant scaling bottleneck for embeddings that want to run many
wasm instances in parallel.
* One of the major benefits of userfaultfd was lazy initialization of
wasm linear memory which is also achieved with the copy-on-write
initialization support we have right now.
* One of the suspected benefits of userfaultfd was less frobbing of the
kernel vma structures when wasm modules are instantiated. Currently
the copy-on-write support has a mitigation where we attempt to reuse
the memory images where possible to avoid changing vma structures.
When comparing this to userfaultfd's performance it was found that
kernel modifications of vmas aren't a worrisome bottleneck so
copy-on-write is suitable for this as well.
Overall there are no remaining benefits that userfaultfd gives that
copy-on-write doesn't, and copy-on-write solves a major downsides of
userfaultfd, the scaling issue with a single faulting thread.
Additionally copy-on-write support seems much more robust in terms of
kernel implementation since it's only using standard memory-management
syscalls which are heavily exercised. Finally copy-on-write support
provides a new bonus where read-only memory in WebAssembly can be mapped
directly to the same kernel cache page, even amongst many wasm instances
of the same module, which was never possible with userfaultfd.
In light of all this it's expected that all users of userfaultfd should
migrate to the copy-on-write initialization of Wasmtime (which is
enabled by default).
Relevant to Wasmtime, this fixes undefined references to `utimensat` and
`futimens` on macOS 10.12 and earlier. See bytecodealliance/rustix#157
for details.
It also contains a fix for s390x which isn't currently needed by Wasmtime
itself, but which is needed to make rustix's own testsuite pass on s390x,
which helps people packaging rustix for use in Wasmtime. See
bytecodealliance/rustix#277 for details.
* Update wasm-tools crates
This commit updates the wasm-tools family of crates as used in Wasmtime.
Notably this brings in the update which removes module linking support
as well as a number of internal refactorings around names and such
within wasmparser itself. This updates all of the wasm translation
support which binds to wasmparser as appropriate.
Other crates all had API-compatible changes for at least what Wasmtime
used so no further changes were necessary beyond updating version
requirements.
* Update a test expectation
* 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
* Update to rustix 0.33.5, to fix a link error on Android
This updates to rustix 0.33.5, which includes bytecodealliance/rustix#258,
which fixes bytecodealliance/rustix#256, a link error on Android.
Fixes#3965.
* Bump the rustix versions in the Cargo.toml files too.
* Support disabling backtraces at compile time
This commit adds support to Wasmtime to disable, at compile time, the
gathering of backtraces on traps. The `wasmtime` crate now sports a
`wasm-backtrace` feature which, when disabled, will mean that backtraces
are never collected at compile time nor are unwinding tables inserted
into compiled objects.
The motivation for this commit stems from the fact that generating a
backtrace is quite a slow operation. Currently backtrace generation is
done with libunwind and `_Unwind_Backtrace` typically found in glibc or
other system libraries. When thousands of modules are loaded into the
same process though this means that the initial backtrace can take
nearly half a second and all subsequent backtraces can take upwards of
hundreds of milliseconds. Relative to all other operations in Wasmtime
this is extremely expensive at this time. In the future we'd like to
implement a more performant backtrace scheme but such an implementation
would require coordination with Cranelift and is a big chunk of work
that may take some time, so in the meantime if embedders don't need a
backtrace they can still use this option to disable backtraces at
compile time and avoid the performance pitfalls of collecting
backtraces.
In general I tried to originally make this a runtime configuration
option but ended up opting for a compile-time option because `Trap::new`
otherwise has no arguments and always captures a backtrace. By making
this a compile-time option it was possible to configure, statically, the
behavior of `Trap::new`. Additionally I also tried to minimize the
amount of `#[cfg]` necessary by largely only having it at the producer
and consumer sites.
Also a noteworthy restriction of this implementation is that if
backtrace support is disabled at compile time then reference types
support will be unconditionally disabled at runtime. With backtrace
support disabled there's no way to trace the stack of wasm frames which
means that GC can't happen given our current implementation.
* Always enable backtraces for the C API
The goal of this new benchmark, `call`, is to help us measure the
overhead of both calling into WebAssembly from the host as well as
calling the host from WebAssembly. There's lots of various ways to
measure this so this benchmark is a bit large but should hopefully be
pretty thorough. It's expected that this benchmark will rarely be run in
its entirety but rather only a subset of the benchmarks will be run at
any one given time.
Some metrics measured here are:
* Typed vs Untyped vs Unchecked - testing the cost of both calling wasm
with these various methods as well as having wasm call the host where
the host function is defined with these various methods.
* With and without `call_hook` - helps to measure the overhead of the
`Store::call_hook` API.
* Synchronous and Asynchronous - measures the overhead of calling into
WebAssembly asynchronously (with and without the pooling allocator) in
addition to defining host APIs in various methods when wasm is called
asynchronously.
Currently all the numbers are as expected, notably:
* Host calling WebAssembly is ~25ns of overhead
* WebAssembly calling the host is ~3ns of overhead
* "Unchecked" is a bit slower than "typed", and "Untyped" is slower than
unchecked.
* Asynchronous wasm calling a synchronous host function has ~3ns of
overhead (nothing more than usual).
* Asynchronous calls are much slower, on the order of 2-3us due to
`madvise`.
Lots of other fiddly bits that can be measured here, but this will
hopefully help establish a benchmark through which we can measure in the
future in addition to measuring changes such as #3876
* fuzzing: Add a custom mutator based on `wasm-mutate`
* fuzz: Add a version of the `compile` fuzz target that uses `wasm-mutate`
* Update `wasmparser` dependencies
* Enable copy-on-write heap initialization by default
This commit enables the `Config::memfd` feature by default now that it's
been fuzzed for a few weeks on oss-fuzz, and will continue to be fuzzed
leading up to the next release of Wasmtime in early March. The
documentation of the `Config` option has been updated as well as adding
a CLI flag to disable the feature.
* Remove ubiquitous "memfd" terminology
Switch instead to forms of "memory image" or "cow" or some combination
thereof.
* Update new option names
* x64: enable VTune support by default
After significant work in the `ittapi-rs` crate, this dependency should
build without issue on Wasmtime's supported operating systems: Windows,
Linux, and macOS. The difference in the release binary is <20KB, so this
change makes `vtune` a default build feature. This change upgrades
`ittapi-rs` to v0.2.0 and updates the documentation.
* review: add configuration for defaults in more places
* review: remove OS conditional compilation, add architecture
* review: do not default vtune feature in wasmtime-jit
This commit has a few minor updates and some improvements to the
instantiation benchmark harness:
* A `once_cell::unsync::Lazy` type is now used to guard creation of
modules/engines/etc. This enables running singular benchmarks to be
much faster since the benchmark no longer compiles all other
benchmarks that are filtered out. Unfortunately I couldn't find a way
in criterion to test whether a `BenchmarkId` is filtered out or not so
we rely on the runtime laziness to initialize on the first run for
benchmarks that do so.
* All files located in `benches/instantiation` are now loaded for
benchmarking instead of a hardcoded list. This makes it a bit easier
to throw files into the directory and have them benchmarked instead of
having to recompile when working with new files.
* Finally a module deserialization benchmark was added to measure the
time it takes to deserialize a precompiled module from disk (inspired
by discussion on #3787)
While I was at it I also upped some limits to be able to instantiate
cfallin's `spidermonkey.wasm`.
This commit updates the `memfd` support in Wasmtime to have a runtime
toggle as to whether it's used or not. The compile-time feature gating
`memfd` support is now also re-enabled by default, but the new runtime
switch is still disabled-by-default.
Additionally this commit updates our fuzz oracle to turn on/off the
memfd flag to re-enable fuzzing with memfd on oss-fuzz.
This patch implements CLI options to insert pre-opened sockets.
`--listenfd` : Inherit environment variables and file descriptors following
the systemd listen fd specification (UNIX only).
`--tcplisten <SOCKET ADDRESS>`: Grant access to the given TCP listen socket.

Since memfd support just landed, and has had only ~0.5 weeks to bake
with fuzzing, we want to make release 0.34.0 of Wasmtime without it
enabled by default. This PR disables memfd by default; it can be enabled
by specifying the `memfd` feature for the `wasmtime` crate, or when
building the commandline binary.
We plan to explicitly add memfd-enabled fuzzing targets, let that go for
a while, then probably re-enable memfd in the subsequent release if no
issues come up.
* Tweak memfd-related features crates
This commit changes the `memfd` feature for the `wasmtime-cli` crate
from an always-on feature to a default-on feature which can be disabled
at compile time. Additionally the `pooling-allocator` feature is also
given similar treatment.
Additionally some documentation was added for the `memfd` feature on the
`wasmtime` crate.
* Don't store `Arc<T>` in `InstanceAllocationRequest`
Instead store `&Arc<T>` to avoid having the clone that lives in
`InstanceAllocationRequest` not actually going anywhere. Otherwise all
instance allocation requires an extra clone to create it for the request
and an extra decrement when the request goes away. Internally clones are
made as necessary when creating instances.
* Enable the pooling allocator by default for `wasmtime-cli`
While perhaps not the most useful option since the CLI doesn't have a
great way to take advantage of this it probably makes sense to at least
match the features of `wasmtime` itself.
* Fix some lints and issues
* More compile fixes
Following up on #3696, use the new is-terminal crate to test for a tty
rather than having platform-specific logic in Wasmtime. The is-terminal
crate has a platform-independent API which takes a handle.
This also updates the tree to cap-std 0.24 etc., to avoid depending on
multiple versions of io-lifetimes at once, as enforced by the cargo deny
check.
