This commit is intended to do almost everything necessary for processing
the alias section of module linking. Most of this is internal
refactoring, the highlights being:
* Type contents are now stored separately from a `wasmtime_env::Module`.
Given that modules can freely alias types and have them used all over
the place, it seemed best to have one canonical location to type
storage which everywhere else points to (with indices). A new
`TypeTables` structure is produced during compilation which is shared
amongst all member modules in a wasm blob.
* Instantiation is heavily refactored to account for module linking. The
main gotcha here is that imports are now listed as "initializers". We
have a sort of pseudo-bytecode-interpreter which interprets the
initialization of a module. This is more complicated than just
matching imports at this point because in the module linking proposal
the module, alias, import, and instance sections may all be
interleaved. This means that imports aren't guaranteed to show up at
the beginning of the address space for modules/instances.
Otherwise most of the changes here largely fell out from these two
design points. Aliases are recorded as initializers in this scheme.
Copying around type information and/or just knowing type information
during compilation is also pretty easy since everything is just a
pointer into a `TypeTables` and we don't have to actually copy any types
themselves. Lots of various refactorings were necessary to accomodate
these changes.
Tests are hoped to cover a breadth of functionality here, but not
necessarily a depth. There's still one more piece of the module linking
proposal missing which is exporting instances/modules, which will come
in a future PR.
It's also worth nothing that there's one large TODO which isn't
implemented in this change that I plan on opening an issue for.
With module linking when a set of modules comes back from compilation
each modules has all the trampolines for the entire set of modules. This
is quite a lot of duplicate trampolines across module-linking modules.
We'll want to refactor this at some point to instead have only one set
of trampolines per set of module linking modules and have them shared
from there. I figured it was best to separate out this change, however,
since it's purely related to resource usage, and doesn't impact
non-module-linking modules at all.

The JIT build_object routine currently rejects building object files
for any big-endian platform. However, most of the object builder
code works fine for either byte order, with the exception of a small
change in the ObjectBuilderTarget::new routine.
This patch adds that change and removes the assert in build_object.
This was added long ago at this point to assist with caching, but
caching has moved to a different level such that this wonky second level
of a `Module` isn't necessary. This commit removes the `ModuleLocal`
type to simplify accessors and generally make it easier to work with.
* Refactor where results of compilation are stored
This commit refactors the internals of compilation in Wasmtime to change
where results of individual function compilation are stored. Previously
compilation resulted in many maps being returned, and compilation
results generally held all these maps together. This commit instead
switches this to have all metadata stored in a `CompiledFunction`
instead of having a separate map for each item that can be stored.
The motivation for this is primarily to help out with future
module-linking-related PRs. What exactly "module level" is depends on
how we interpret modules and how many modules are in play, so it's a bit
easier for operations in wasmtime to work at the function level where
possible. This means that we don't have to pass around multiple
different maps and a function index, but instead just one map or just
one entry representing a compiled function.
Additionally this change updates where the parallelism of compilation
happens, pushing it into `wasmtime-jit` instead of `wasmtime-environ`.
This is another goal where `wasmtime-jit` will have more knowledge about
module-level pieces with module linking in play. User-facing-wise this
should be the same in terms of parallel compilation, though.
The ultimate goal of this refactoring is to make it easier for the
results of compilation to actually be a set of wasm modules. This means
we won't be able to have a map-per-metadata where the primary key is the
function index, because there will be many modules within one "object
file".
* Don't clear out fields, just don't store them
Persist a smaller set of fields in `CompilationArtifacts` instead of
trying to clear fields out and dynamically not accessing them.
* Compute instance exports on demand.
Instead having instances eagerly compute a Vec of Externs, and bumping
the refcount for each Extern, compute Externs on demand.
This also enables `Instance::get_export` to avoid doing a linear search.
This also means that the closure returned by `get0` and friends now
holds an `InstanceHandle` to dynamically hold the instance live rather
than being scoped to a lifetime.
* Compute module imports and exports on demand too.
And compute Extern::ty on demand too.
* Add a utility function for computing an ExternType.
* Add a utility function for looking up a function's signature.
* Add a utility function for computing the ValType of a Global.
* Rename wasmtime_environ::Export to EntityIndex.
This helps differentiate it from other Export types in the tree, and
describes what it is.
* Fix a typo in a comment.
* Simplify module imports and exports.
* Make `Instance::exports` return the export names.
This significantly simplifies the public API, as it's relatively common
to need the names, and this avoids the need to do a zip with
`Module::exports`.
This also changes `ImportType` and `ExportType` to have public members
instead of private members and accessors, as I find that simplifies the
usage particularly in cases where there are temporary instances.
* Remove `Instance::module`.
This doesn't quite remove `Instance`'s `module` member, it gets a step
closer.
* Use a InstanceHandle utility function.
* Don't consume self in the `Func::get*` methods.
Instead, just create a closure containing the instance handle and the
export for them to call.
* Use `ExactSizeIterator` to avoid needing separate `num_*` methods.
* Rename `Extern::func()` etc. to `into_func()` etc.
* Revise examples to avoid using `nth`.
* Add convenience methods to instance for getting specific extern types.
* Use the convenience functions in more tests and examples.
* Avoid cloning strings for `ImportType` and `ExportType`.
* Remove more obviated clone() calls.
* Simplify `Func`'s closure state.
* Make wasmtime::Export's fields private.
This makes them more consistent with ExportType.
* Fix compilation error.
* Make a lifetime parameter explicit, and use better lifetime names.
Instead of 'me, use 'instance and 'module to make it clear what the
lifetime is.
* More lifetime cleanups.
* Improve robustness of cache loading/storing
Today wasmtime incorrectly loads compiled compiled modules from the
global cache when toggling settings such as optimizations. For example
if you execute `wasmtime foo.wasm` that will cache globally an
unoptimized version of the wasm module. If you then execute `wasmtime -O
foo.wasm` it would then reload the unoptimized version from cache, not
realizing the compilation settings were different, and use that instead.
This can lead to very surprising behavior naturally!
This commit updates how the cache is managed in an attempt to make it
much more robust against these sorts of issues. This takes a leaf out of
rustc's playbook and models the cache with a function that looks like:
fn load<T: Hash>(
&self,
data: T,
compute: fn(T) -> CacheEntry,
) -> CacheEntry;
The goal here is that it guarantees that all the `data` necessary to
`compute` the result of the cache entry is hashable and stored into the
hash key entry. This was previously open-coded and manually managed
where items were hashed explicitly, but this construction guarantees
that everything reasonable `compute` could use to compile the module is
stored in `data`, which is itself hashable.
This refactoring then resulted in a few workarounds and a few fixes,
including the original issue:
* The `Module` type was split into `Module` and `ModuleLocal` where only
the latter is hashed. The previous hash function for a `Module` left
out items like the `start_func` and didn't hash items like the imports
of the module. Omitting the `start_func` was fine since compilation
didn't actually use it, but omitting imports seemed uncomfortable
because while compilation didn't use the import values it did use the
*number* of imports, which seems like it should then be put into the
cache key. The `ModuleLocal` type now derives `Hash` to guarantee that
all of its contents affect the hash key.
* The `ModuleTranslationState` from `cranelift-wasm` doesn't implement
`Hash` which means that we have a manual wrapper to work around that.
This will be fixed with an upstream implementation, since this state
affects the generated wasm code. Currently this is just a map of
signatures, which is present in `Module` anyway, so we should be good
for the time being.
* Hashing `dyn TargetIsa` was also added, where previously it was not
fully hashed. Previously only the target name was used as part of the
cache key, but crucially the flags of compilation were omitted (for
example the optimization flags). Unfortunately the trait object itself
is not hashable so we still have to manually write a wrapper to hash
it, but we likely want to add upstream some utilities to hash isa
objects into cranelift itself. For now though we can continue to add
hashed fields as necessary.
Overall the goal here was to use the compiler to expose what we're not
hashing, and then make sure we organize data and write the right code to
ensure everything is hashed, and nothing more.

This commit shrinks the `RelocationTarget` enumeration to remove
intrinsic-related relocations since they are no longer used. Instead
these function calls are done indirectly via a table in the `VMContext`.
This means that all of this is essentially dead code!
* Remove usage of `CompilationStrategy` from `Config`
This commit removes the public API usage of the internal
`CompilationStrategy` enumeration from the `Config` type in the
`wasmtime` crate. To do this the `enum` was copied locally into the
crate and renamed `Strategy`. The high-level description of this change
is:
* The `Config::strategy` method now takes a locally-defined `Strategy`
enumeration instead of an internal type.
* The contents of `Strategy` are always the same, not relying on Cargo
features to indicate which variants are present. This avoids
unnecessary downstream `#[cfg]`.
* A `lightbeam` feature was added to the `wasmtime` crate itself to
lightbeam compilation support.
* The `Config::strategy` method is now fallible. It returns a runtime
error if support for the selected strategy wasn't compiled in.
* The `Strategy` enum is listed as `#[non_exhaustive]` so we can safely
add variants over time to it.
This reduces the public crate dependencies of the `wasmtime` crate
itself, removing the need to reach into internal crates even more!
cc #708
* Fix fuzz targets
* Update nightly used to build releases
* Run rustfmt
* Migrate back to `std::` stylistically
This commit moves away from idioms such as `alloc::` and `core::` as
imports of standard data structures and types. Instead it migrates all
crates to uniformly use `std::` for importing standard data structures
and types. This also removes the `std` and `core` features from all
crates to and removes any conditional checking for `feature = "std"`
All of this support was previously added in #407 in an effort to make
wasmtime/cranelift "`no_std` compatible". Unfortunately though this
change comes at a cost:
* The usage of `alloc` and `core` isn't idiomatic. Especially trying to
dual between types like `HashMap` from `std` as well as from
`hashbrown` causes imports to be surprising in some cases.
* Unfortunately there was no CI check that crates were `no_std`, so none
of them actually were. Many crates still imported from `std` or
depended on crates that used `std`.
It's important to note, however, that **this does not mean that wasmtime
will not run in embedded environments**. The style of the code today and
idioms aren't ready in Rust to support this degree of multiplexing and
makes it somewhat difficult to keep up with the style of `wasmtime`.
Instead it's intended that embedded runtime support will be added as
necessary. Currently only `std` is necessary to build `wasmtime`, and
platforms that natively need to execute `wasmtime` will need to use a
Rust target that supports `std`. Note though that not all of `std` needs
to be supported, but instead much of it could be configured off to
return errors, and `wasmtime` would be configured to gracefully handle
errors.
The goal of this PR is to move `wasmtime` back to idiomatic usage of
features/`std`/imports/etc and help development in the short-term.
Long-term when platform concerns arise (if any) they can be addressed by
moving back to `no_std` crates (but fixing the issues mentioned above)
or ensuring that the target in Rust has `std` available.
