This commit adds a `compile` command to the Wasmtime CLI.
The command can be used to Ahead-Of-Time (AOT) compile WebAssembly modules.
With the `all-arch` feature enabled, AOT compilation can be performed for
non-native architectures (i.e. cross-compilation).
The `Module::compile` method has been added to perform AOT compilation.
A few of the CLI flags relating to "on by default" Wasm features have been
changed to be "--disable-XYZ" flags.
A simple example of using the `wasmtime compile` command:
```text
$ wasmtime compile input.wasm
$ wasmtime input.cwasm
```
With `Module::{serialize,deserialize}` it should be possible to share
wasmtime modules across machines or CPUs. Serialization, however, embeds
a hash of all configuration values, including cranelift compilation
settings. By default wasmtime's selection of the native ISA would enable
ISA flags according to CPU features available on the host, but the same
CPU features may not be available across two machines.
This commit adds a `Config::cranelift_clear_cpu_flags` method which
allows clearing the target-specific ISA flags that are automatically
inferred by default for the native CPU. Options can then be
incrementally built back up as-desired with teh `cranelift_other_flag`
method.
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.
* 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
- 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 adds the MachInst, or Machine Instruction, infrastructure.
This is the machine-independent portion of the new backend design. It
contains the implementation of the "vcode" (virtual-registerized code)
container, the top-level lowering algorithm and compilation pipeline,
and the trait definitions that the machine backends will fill in.
This backend infrastructure is included in the compilation of the
`codegen` crate, but it is not yet tied into the public APIs; that patch
will come last, after all the other pieces are filled in.
This patch contains code written by Julian Seward <jseward@acm.org> and
Benjamin Bouvier <public@benj.me>, originally developed on a side-branch
before rebasing and condensing into this patch series. See the `arm64`
branch at `https://github.com/cfallin/wasmtime` for original development
history.
