When targeting musl, libunwind is used for the `__register_frame`
implementation.
Unlike when targeting libgcc which expects an entire frame table, the libunwind
implementation expects a single FDE.
This change ensures Wasmtime registers each individual FDE when targeting musl.
Fixes#1904.
This allows embedders to take a different action when a WASI program
exits depending on whether it exited with an exit status or exited with
a trap.

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).

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.
* Add CLI flags for internal cranelift options
This commit adds two flags to the `wasmtime` CLI:
* `--enable-cranelift-debug-verifier`
* `--enable-cranelift-nan-canonicalization`
These previously weren't exposed from the command line but have been
useful to me at least for reproducing slowdowns found during fuzzing on
the CLI.
* Disable Cranelift debug verifier when fuzzing
This commit disables Cranelift's debug verifier for our fuzz targets.
We've gotten a good number of timeouts on OSS-Fuzz and some I've
recently had some discussion over at google/oss-fuzz#3944 about this
issue and what we can do. The result of that discussion was that there
are two primary ways we can speed up our fuzzers:
* One is independent of Wasmtime, which is to tweak the flags used to
compile code. The conclusion was that one flag was passed to LLVM
which significantly increased runtime for very little benefit. This
has now been disabled in rust-fuzz/cargo-fuzz#229.
* The other way is to reduce the amount of debug checks we run while
fuzzing wasmtime itself. To put this in perspective, a test case which
took ~100ms to instantiate was taking 50 *seconds* to instantiate in
the fuzz target. This 500x slowdown was caused by a ton of
multiplicative factors, but two major contributors were NaN
canonicalization and cranelift's debug verifier. I suspect the NaN
canonicalization itself isn't too pricy but when paired with the debug
verifier in float-heavy code it can create lots of IR to verify.
This commit is specifically tackling this second point in an attempt to
avoid slowing down our fuzzers too much. The intent here is that we'll
disable the cranelift debug verifier for now but leave all other checks
enabled. If the debug verifier gets a speed boost we can try re-enabling
it, but otherwise it seems like for now it's otherwise not catching any
bugs and creating lots of noise about timeouts that aren't relevant.
It's not great that we have to turn off internal checks since that's
what fuzzing is supposed to trigger, but given the timeout on OSS-Fuzz
and the multiplicative effects of all the slowdowns we have when
fuzzing, I'm not sure we can afford the massive slowdown of the debug verifier.
* Refactor how relocs are stored and handled
* refactor CompiledModule::instantiate and link_module
* Refactor DWARF creation: split generation and serialization
* Separate DWARF data transform from instantiation
* rm LinkContext
* Allow any type which implements Handle to act as stdio
There have been requests to allow more than just raw OS handles to
act as stdio in `wasi-common`. This commit makes this possible by
loosening the requirement of the `WasiCtxBuilder` to accept any
type `T: Handle + 'static` to act as any of the stdio handles.
A couple words about correctness of this approach. Currently, since
we only have a single `Handle` super-trait to represent all possible
WASI handle types (files, dirs, stdio, pipes, virtual, etc.), it
is possible to pass in any type to act as stdio which can be wrong.
However, I envision this being a problem only in the near(est) future
until we work out how to split `Handle` into several traits, each
representing a different type of WASI resource. In this particular
case, this would be a resource which would implement the interface
required for a handle to act as a stdio (with appropriate rights, etc.).

These libcalls are useful for 32-bit platforms.
On x86_32 in particular, commit 4ec16fa0 added support for legalizing
64-bit shifts through SIMD operations. However, that legalization
requires SIMD to be enabled and SSE 4.1 to be supported, which is not
acceptable as a hard requirement.

* Moves CodeMemory, VMInterrupts and SignatureRegistry from Compiler
* CompiledModule holds CodeMemory and GdbJitImageRegistration

* Makes "jit_int.rs" stuff Send+Sync
* Adds the threads example.
It isn't used by anything except for the C API and all of our embedder-exposed
APIs are already internally `Rc`-based, so it doesn't make sense to use with
them.
