* Implement module imports into components
As a step towards implementing function imports into a component this
commit implements importing modules into a component. This fills out
missing pieces of functionality such as exporting modules as well. The
previous translation code had initial support for translating imported
modules but some of the AST type information was restructured with
feedback from this implementation, namely splitting the
`InstantiateModule` initializer into separate upvar/import variants to
clarify that the item orderings for imports are resolved differently at
runtime.
Much of this commit is also adding infrastructure for any imports at all
into a component. For example a `Linker` type (analagous to
`wasmtime::Linker`) was added here as well. For now this type is quite
limited due to the inability to define host functions (it can only work
with instances and instances-of-modules) but it's enough to start
writing `*.wast` tests which exercise lots of module-related functionality.
* Fix a warning
* 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
* 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
* Remove the module linking implementation in Wasmtime
This commit removes the experimental implementation of the module
linking WebAssembly proposal from Wasmtime. The module linking is no
longer intended for core WebAssembly but is instead incorporated into
the component model now at this point. This means that very large parts
of Wasmtime's implementation of module linking are no longer applicable
and would change greatly with an implementation of the component model.
The main purpose of this is to remove Wasmtime's reliance on the support
for module-linking in `wasmparser` and tooling crates. With this
reliance removed we can move over to the `component-model` branch of
`wasmparser` and use the updated support for the component model.
Additionally given the trajectory of the component model proposal the
embedding API of Wasmtime will not look like what it looks like today
for WebAssembly. For example the core wasm `Instance` will not change
and instead a `Component` is likely to be added instead.
Some more rationale for this is in #3941, but the basic idea is that I
feel that it's not going to be viable to develop support for the
component model on a non-`main` branch of Wasmtime. Additionaly I don't
think it's viable, for the same reasons as `wasm-tools`, to support the
old module linking proposal and the new component model at the same
time.
This commit takes a moment to not only delete the existing module
linking implementation but some abstractions are also simplified. For
example module serialization is a bit simpler that there's only one
module. Additionally instantiation is much simpler since the only
initializer we have to deal with are imports and nothing else.
Closes#3941
* Fix doc link
* Update comments
This commit removes the Lightbeam backend from Wasmtime as per [RFC 14].
This backend hasn't received maintenance in quite some time, and as [RFC
14] indicates this doesn't meet the threshold for keeping the code
in-tree, so this commit removes it.
A fast "baseline" compiler may still be added in the future. The
addition of such a backend should be in line with [RFC 14], though, with
the principles we now have for stable releases of Wasmtime. I'll close
out Lightbeam-related issues once this is merged.

* Optimize `Func::call` and its C API
This commit is an alternative to #3298 which achieves effectively the
same goal of optimizing the `Func::call` API as well as its C API
sibling of `wasmtime_func_call`. The strategy taken here is different
than #3298 though where a new API isn't created, rather a small tweak to
an existing API is done. Specifically this commit handles the major
sources of slowness with `Func::call` with:
* Looking up the type of a function, to typecheck the arguments with and
use to guide how the results should be loaded, no longer hits the
rwlock in the `Engine` but instead each `Func` contains its own
`FuncType`. This can be an unnecessary allocation for funcs not used
with `Func::call`, so this is a downside of this implementation
relative to #3298. A mitigating factor, though, is that instance
exports are loaded lazily into the `Store` and in theory not too many
funcs are active in the store as `Func` objects.
* Temporary storage is amortized with a long-lived `Vec` in the `Store`
rather than allocating a new vector on each call. This is basically
the same strategy as #3294 only applied to different types in
different places. Specifically `wasmtime::Store` now retains a
`Vec<u128>` for `Func::call`, and the C API retains a `Vec<Val>` for
calling `Func::call`.
* Finally, an API breaking change is made to `Func::call` and its type
signature (as well as `Func::call_async`). Instead of returning
`Box<[Val]>` as it did before this function now takes a
`results: &mut [Val]` parameter. This allows the caller to manage the
allocation and we can amortize-remove it in `wasmtime_func_call` by
using space after the parameters in the `Vec<Val>` we're passing in.
This change is naturally a breaking change and we'll want to consider
it carefully, but mitigating factors are that most embeddings are
likely using `TypedFunc::call` instead and this signature taking a
mutable slice better aligns with `Func::new` which receives a mutable
slice for the results.
Overall this change, in the benchmark of "call a nop function from the C
API" is not quite as good as #3298. It's still a bit slower, on the
order of 15ns, because there's lots of capacity checks around vectors
and the type checks are slightly less optimized than before. Overall
though this is still significantly better than today because allocations
and the rwlock to acquire the type information are both avoided. I
personally feel that this change is the best to do because it has less
of an API impact than #3298.
* Rebase issues
* Remove unnecessary into_iter/map
Forgotten from a previous refactoring, this variable was already of the
right type!
* Move `wasmtime_jit::Compiler` into `wasmtime`
This `Compiler` struct is mostly a historical artifact at this point and
wasn't necessarily pulling much weight any more. This organization also
doesn't lend itself super well to compiling out `cranelift` when the
`Compiler` here is used for both parallel iteration configuration
settings as well as compilation.
The movement into `wasmtime` is relatively small, with
`Module::build_artifacts` being the main function added here which is a
merging of the previous functions removed from the `wasmtime-jit` crate.
* Add a `cranelift` compile-time feature to `wasmtime`
This commit concludes the saga of refactoring Wasmtime and making
Cranelift an optional dependency by adding a new Cargo feature to the
`wasmtime` crate called `cranelift`, which is enabled by default.
This feature is implemented by having a new cfg for `wasmtime` itself,
`cfg(compiler)`, which is used wherever compilation is necessary. This
bubbles up to disable APIs such as `Module::new`, `Func::new`,
`Engine::precompile_module`, and a number of `Config` methods affecting
compiler configuration. Checks are added to CI that when built in this
mode Wasmtime continues to successfully build. It's hoped that although
this is effectively "sprinkle `#[cfg]` until things compile" this won't
be too too bad to maintain over time since it's also an use case we're
interested in supporting.
With `cranelift` disabled the only way to create a `Module` is with the
`Module::deserialize` method, which requires some form of precompiled
artifact.
Two consequences of this change are:
* `Module::serialize` is also disabled in this mode. The reason for this
is that serialized modules contain ISA/shared flags encoded in them
which were used to produce the compiled code. There's no storage for
this if compilation is disabled. This could probably be re-enabled in
the future if necessary, but it may not end up being all that necessary.
* Deserialized modules are not checked to ensure that their ISA/shared
flags are compatible with the host CPU. This is actually already the
case, though, with normal modules. We'll likely want to fix this in
the future using a shared implementation for both these locations.
Documentation should be updated to indicate that `cranelift` can be
disabled, although it's not really the most prominent documentation
because this is expected to be a somewhat niche use case (albeit
important, just not too common).
* Always enable cranelift for the C API
* Fix doc example builds
* Fix check tests on GitHub Actions
* Implement the memory64 proposal in Wasmtime
This commit implements the WebAssembly [memory64 proposal][proposal] in
both Wasmtime and Cranelift. In terms of work done Cranelift ended up
needing very little work here since most of it was already prepared for
64-bit memories at one point or another. Most of the work in Wasmtime is
largely refactoring, changing a bunch of `u32` values to something else.
A number of internal and public interfaces are changing as a result of
this commit, for example:
* Acessors on `wasmtime::Memory` that work with pages now all return
`u64` unconditionally rather than `u32`. This makes it possible to
accommodate 64-bit memories with this API, but we may also want to
consider `usize` here at some point since the host can't grow past
`usize`-limited pages anyway.
* The `wasmtime::Limits` structure is removed in favor of
minimum/maximum methods on table/memory types.
* Many libcall intrinsics called by jit code now unconditionally take
`u64` arguments instead of `u32`. Return values are `usize`, however,
since the return value, if successful, is always bounded by host
memory while arguments can come from any guest.
* The `heap_addr` clif instruction now takes a 64-bit offset argument
instead of a 32-bit one. It turns out that the legalization of
`heap_addr` already worked with 64-bit offsets, so this change was
fairly trivial to make.
* The runtime implementation of mmap-based linear memories has changed
to largely work in `usize` quantities in its API and in bytes instead
of pages. This simplifies various aspects and reflects that
mmap-memories are always bound by `usize` since that's what the host
is using to address things, and additionally most calculations care
about bytes rather than pages except for the very edge where we're
going to/from wasm.
Overall I've tried to minimize the amount of `as` casts as possible,
using checked `try_from` and checked arithemtic with either error
handling or explicit `unwrap()` calls to tell us about bugs in the
future. Most locations have relatively obvious things to do with various
implications on various hosts, and I think they should all be roughly of
the right shape but time will tell. I mostly relied on the compiler
complaining that various types weren't aligned to figure out
type-casting, and I manually audited some of the more obvious locations.
I suspect we have a number of hidden locations that will panic on 32-bit
hosts if 64-bit modules try to run there, but otherwise I think we
should be generally ok (famous last words). In any case I wouldn't want
to enable this by default naturally until we've fuzzed it for some time.
In terms of the actual underlying implementation, no one should expect
memory64 to be all that fast. Right now it's implemented with
"dynamic" heaps which have a few consequences:
* All memory accesses are bounds-checked. I'm not sure how aggressively
Cranelift tries to optimize out bounds checks, but I suspect not a ton
since we haven't stressed this much historically.
* Heaps are always precisely sized. This means that every call to
`memory.grow` will incur a `memcpy` of memory from the old heap to the
new. We probably want to at least look into `mremap` on Linux and
otherwise try to implement schemes where dynamic heaps have some
reserved pages to grow into to help amortize the cost of
`memory.grow`.
The memory64 spec test suite is scheduled to now run on CI, but as with
all the other spec test suites it's really not all that comprehensive.
I've tried adding more tests for basic things as I've had to implement
guards for them, but I wouldn't really consider the testing adequate
from just this PR itself. I did try to take care in one test to actually
allocate a 4gb+ heap and then avoid running that in the pooling
allocator or in emulation because otherwise that may fail or take
excessively long.

This commit cleands up some existing documentation by removing a number
of "noop README files" and starting a high-level overview of the

contributors.
I've surely left some things out in this pass, and am happy to add more!

Implement Wasmtime's new API as designed by RFC 11. This is quite a large commit which has had lots of discussion externally, so for more information it's best to read the RFC thread and the PR thread.
* Add resource limiting to the Wasmtime API.
This commit adds a `ResourceLimiter` trait to the Wasmtime API.
When used in conjunction with `Store::new_with_limiter`, this can be used to
monitor and prevent WebAssembly code from growing linear memories and tables.
This is particularly useful when hosts need to take into account host resource
usage to determine if WebAssembly code can consume more resources.
A simple `StaticResourceLimiter` is also included with these changes that will
simply limit the size of linear memories or tables for all instances created in
the store based on static values.
* Code review feedback.
* Implemented `StoreLimits` and `StoreLimitsBuilder`.
* Moved `max_instances`, `max_memories`, `max_tables` out of `Config` and into
`StoreLimits`.
* Moved storage of the limiter in the runtime into `Memory` and `Table`.
* Made `InstanceAllocationRequest` use a reference to the limiter.
* Updated docs.
* Made `ResourceLimiterProxy` generic to remove a level of indirection.
* Fixed the limiter not being used for `wasmtime::Memory` and
`wasmtime::Table`.
* Code review feedback and bug fix.
* `Memory::new` now returns `Result<Self>` so that an error can be returned if
the initial requested memory exceeds any limits placed on the store.
* Changed an `Arc` to `Rc` as the `Arc` wasn't necessary.
* Removed `Store` from the `ResourceLimiter` callbacks. Custom resource limiter
implementations are free to capture any context they want, so no need to
unnecessarily store a weak reference to `Store` from the proxy type.
* Fixed a bug in the pooling instance allocator where an instance would be
leaked from the pool. Previously, this would only have happened if the OS was
unable to make the necessary linear memory available for the instance. With
these changes, however, the instance might not be created due to limits
placed on the store. We now properly deallocate the instance on error.
* Added more tests, including one that covers the fix mentioned above.
* Code review feedback.
* Add another memory to `test_pooling_allocator_initial_limits_exceeded` to
ensure a partially created instance is successfully deallocated.
* Update some doc comments for better documentation of `Store` and
`ResourceLimiter`.
* Update wasm-tools crates
* Update Wasm SIMD spec tests
* Invert 'experimental_x64_should_panic' logic
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
This commit goes through the dependencies that wasmtime has and updates
versions where possible. This notably brings in a wasmparser/wast update
which has some simd spec changes with new instructions. Otherwise most
of these are just routine updates.
This commit updates the various tooling used by wasmtime which has new
updates to the module linking proposal. This is done primarily to sync
with WebAssembly/module-linking#26. The main change implemented here is
that wasmtime now supports creating instances from a set of values, nott
just from instantiating a module. Additionally subtyping handling of
modules with respect to imports is now properly handled by desugaring
two-level imports to imports of instances.
A number of small refactorings are included here as well, but most of
them are in accordance with the changes to `wasmparser` and the updated
binary format for module linking.
This commit updates all the wasm-tools crates that we use and enables
fuzzing of the module linking proposal in our various fuzz targets. This
also refactors some of the dummy value generation logic to not be
fallible and to always succeed, the thinking being that we don't want to
accidentally hide errors while fuzzing. Additionally instantiation is
only allowed to fail with a `Trap`, other failure reasons are unwrapped.
* Implement imported/exported modules/instances
This commit implements the final piece of the module linking proposal
which is to flesh out the support for importing/exporting instances and
modules. This ended up having a few changes:
* Two more `PrimaryMap` instances are now stored in an `Instance`. The value
for instances is `InstanceHandle` (pretty easy) and for modules it's
`Box<dyn Any>` (less easy).
* The custom host state for `InstanceHandle` for `wasmtime` is now
`Arc<TypeTables` to be able to fully reconstruct an instance's types
just from its instance.
* Type matching for imports now has been updated to take
instances/modules into account.
One of the main downsides of this implementation is that type matching
of imports is duplicated between wasmparser and wasmtime, leading to
posssible bugs especially in the subtelties of module linking. I'm not
sure how best to unify these two pieces of validation, however, and it
may be more trouble than it's worth.
cc #2094
* Update wat/wast/wasmparser
* Review comments
* Fix a bug in publish script to vendor the right witx
Currently there's two witx binaries in our repository given the two wasi
spec submodules, so this updates the publication script to vendor the
right one.
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.
cc #2094
With the module linking proposal the field name on imports is now
optional, and only the module is required to be specified. This commit
propagates this API change to the boundary of wasmtime's API, ensuring
consumers are aware of what's optional with module linking and what
isn't. Note that it's expected that all existing users will either
update accordingly or unwrap the result since module linking is
presumably disabled.
