This will hopefully remove a small thorn in our side with periodic
nightly breakage due to nightly features changing. This commit moves
lightbeam to stable Rust, swapping out `staticvec` for `arrayvec` and
otherwise updating some dependencies (namely `dynasm`) to compile with
stable.
This then also updates CI appropriately to not use a pinned nightly and
instead us a floating `nightly` channel so we can head off any breakage
coming up ASAP.
This adds a new feature experimental_x64 for CLIF tests.
A test is run in the new x64 backend iff:
- either the test doesn't have an x86_64 target requirement, signaling
it must be target agnostic or not run on this target.
- or the test does require the x86_64 target, and the test is marked
with the `experimental_x64` feature.
This required one workaround in the parser. The reason is that the
parser will try to use information not provided by the TargetIsa adapter
for the Mach backends, like register names. In particular, parsing test
may fail before the test runner realizes that the test must not be run.
In this case, we early return an almost-empty TestFile from the parser,
under the same conditions as above, so that the caller may filter out
the test properly.
This also copies two tests from the test suite using the new backend,
for demonstration purposes.
Given a clif function, harvest all its integer subexpressions, so that they can
be fed into [Souper](https://github.com/google/souper) as candidates for
superoptimization. For some of these candidates, Souper will successfully
synthesize a right-hand side that is equivalent but has lower cost than the
left-hand side. Then, we can combine these left- and right-hand sides into a
complete optimization, and add it to our peephole passes.
To harvest the expression that produced a given value `x`, we do a post-order
traversal of the dataflow graph starting from `x`. As we do this traversal, we
maintain a map from clif values to their translated Souper values. We stop
traversing when we reach anything that can't be translated into Souper IR: a
memory load, a float-to-int conversion, a block parameter, etc. For values
produced by these instructions, we create a Souper `var`, which is an input
variable to the optimization. For instructions that have a direct mapping into
Souper IR, we get the Souper version of each of its operands and then create the
Souper version of the instruction itself. It should now be clear why we do a
post-order traversal: we need an instruction's translated operands in order to
translate the instruction itself. Once this instruction is translated, we update
the clif-to-souper map with this new translation so that any other instruction
that uses this result as an operand has access to the translated value. When the
traversal is complete we return the translation of `x` as the root of left-hand
side candidate.

DEPRECATION NOTICE: the Cranelift developer team intends to stop maintaining
the `cranelift-faerie` crate and remove it from the `wasmtime` git repository
on or after August 3, 2020. We recommend users use its successor, the
`cranelift-object` crate.
Before this patch, running the x64 new backend would require both
compiling with --features experimental_x64 and running with
`use_new_backend`.
This patches changes this behavior so that the runtime flag is not
needed anymore: using the feature flag will enforce usage of the new
backend everywhere, making using and testing it much simpler:
cargo run --features experimental_x64 ;; other CLI options/flags
This also gives a hint at what the meta language generation would look
like after switching to the new backend.
Compiling only with the x64 codegen flag gives a nice compile time speedup.
* This PR is against a branch called `main`
* Internally all docs/CI/etc is updated
* The default branch of the repo is now `main`
* All active PRs have been updated to retarget `main`
Closes#1914
Rather than outright replacing parts of our existing peephole optimizations
passes, this makes peepmatic an optional cargo feature that can be enabled. This
allows us to take a conservative approach with enabling peepmatic everywhere,
while also allowing us to get it in-tree and make it easier to collaborate on
improving it quickly.
* Wasmtime 0.15.0 and Cranelift 0.62.0. (#1398)
* Bump more ad-hoc versions.
* Add build.rs to wasi-common's Cargo.toml.
* Update the env var name in more places.
* Remove a redundant echo.
Removes an edge towards the `synstructure` dependency in our dependency
graph which, if removed entirely, is hoped to reduce build times locally
and on CI as you switch between `cargo build` and `cargo test` because
deep dependencies like `syn` won't have their features alternating back
and forth.
This patch updates or removes all references to the Cranelift repository. It affects links in README documents, issues that were transferred to the Wasmtime repository, CI badges, and a small bunch of sundry items.
Update the documentation for the merger, and also for various changes in
Cranelift. Remove some old obsolete documentation, and convert the remaining
Sphinx files to Markdown. Some of the remaining content is still out of
date, but this is a step forward.
* All: Drop 'basic-blocks' feature
This makes it so that 'basic-blocks' cannot be disabled and we can
start assuming it everywhere.
* Tests: Replace non-bb filetests with bb version
* Tests: Adapt solver-fixedconflict filetests to use basic blocks
This commit moves the cranelift tests and tools from the `wabt` crate on
crates.io (which compiles the wabt C++ codebase) to the `wat` crate on
crates.io which is a Rust parser for the `*.wat` format. This was
motivated by me noticing that release builds on Windows are ~5 minutes
longer than Linux builds, and local timing graphs showed that `wabt-sys`
was by far the longest build step in the build process.
This commit changes the `clif-util` binary where the `--enable-simd`
flag is no longer respected with the text format as input, since the
`wat` crate has no feature gating. This was already sort of not
respected, though, since `--enable-simd` wasn't consulted for binary
inputs which `clif-util` supports as well. If this isn't ok though then
it should be ok to close this PR!
* Bump version to 0.48.0
* Re-enable `byteorder`'s default features.
The code uses `WriteBytesExt` which depends on the `std` feature being
enabled. So for now, just enable `std`.
