* Reimplement how unwind information is stored
This commit is a major refactoring of how unwind information is stored
after compilation of a function has finished. Previously we would store
the raw `UnwindInfo` as a result of compilation and this would get
serialized/deserialized alongside the rest of the ELF object that
compilation creates. Whenever functions were registered with
`CodeMemory` this would also result in registering unwinding information
dynamically at runtime, which in the case of Unix, for example, would
dynamically created FDE/CIE entries on-the-fly.
Eventually I'd like to support compiling Wasmtime without Cranelift, but
this means that `UnwindInfo` wouldn't be easily available to decode into
and create unwinding information from. To solve this I've changed the
ELF object created to have the unwinding information encoded into it
ahead-of-time so loading code into memory no longer needs to create
unwinding tables. This change has two different implementations for
Windows/Unix:
* On Windows the implementation was much easier. The unwinding
information on Windows is already stored after the function itself in
the text section. This was actually slightly duplicated in object
building and in code memory allocation. Now the object building
continues to do the same, recording unwinding information after
functions, and code memory no longer manually tracks this.
Additionally Wasmtime will emit a special custom section in the object
file with unwinding information which is the list of
`RUNTIME_FUNCTION` structures that `RtlAddFunctionTable` expects. This
means that the object file has all the information precompiled into it
and registration at runtime is simply passing a few pointers around to
the runtime.
* Unix was a little bit more difficult than Windows. Today a `.eh_frame`
section is created on-the-fly with offsets in FDEs specified as the
absolute address that functions are loaded at. This absolute
address hindered the ability to precompile the FDE into the object
file itself. I've switched how addresses are encoded, though, to using
`DW_EH_PE_pcrel` which means that FDE addresses are now specified
relative to the FDE itself. This means that we can maintain a fixed
offset between the `.eh_frame` loaded in memory and the beginning of
code memory. When doing so this enables precompiling the `.eh_frame`
section into the object file and at runtime when loading an object no
further construction of unwinding information is needed.
The overall result of this commit is that unwinding information is no
longer stored in its cranelift-data-structure form on disk. This means
that this unwinding information format is only present during
compilation, which will make it that much easier to compile out
cranelift in the future.
This commit also significantly refactors `CodeMemory` since the way
unwinding information is handled is not much different from before.
Previously `CodeMemory` was suitable for incrementally adding more and
more functions to it, but nowadays a `CodeMemory` either lives per
module (in which case all functions are known up front) or it's created
once-per-`Func::new` with two trampolines. In both cases we know all
functions up front so the functionality of incrementally adding more and
more segments is no longer needed. This commit removes the ability to
add a function-at-a-time in `CodeMemory` and instead it can now only
load objects in their entirety. A small helper function is added to
build a small object file for trampolines in `Func::new` to handle
allocation there.
Finally, this commit also folds the `wasmtime-obj` crate directly into
the `wasmtime-cranelift` crate and its builder structure to be more
amenable to this strategy of managing unwinding tables.
It is not intentional to have any real functional change as a result of
this commit. This might accelerate loading a module from cache slightly
since less work is needed to manage the unwinding information, but
that's just a side benefit from the main goal of this commit which is to
remove the dependence on cranelift unwinding information being available
at runtime.
* Remove isa reexport from wasmtime-environ
* Trim down reexports of `cranelift-codegen`
Remove everything non-essential so that only the bits which will need to
be refactored out of cranelift remain.
* Fix debug tests
* Review comments
This commit started off by deleting the `cranelift_codegen::settings`
reexport in the `wasmtime-environ` crate and then basically played
whack-a-mole until everything compiled again. The main result of this is
that the `wasmtime-*` family of crates have generally less of a
dependency on the `TargetIsa` trait and type from Cranelift. While the
dependency isn't entirely severed yet this is at least a significant
start.
This commit is intended to be largely refactorings, no functional
changes are intended here. The refactorings are:
* A `CompilerBuilder` trait has been added to `wasmtime_environ` which
server as an abstraction used to create compilers and configure them
in a uniform fashion. The `wasmtime::Config` type now uses this
instead of cranelift-specific settings. The `wasmtime-jit` crate
exports the ability to create a compiler builder from a
`CompilationStrategy`, which only works for Cranelift right now. In a
cranelift-less build of Wasmtime this is expected to return a trait
object that fails all requests to compile.
* The `Compiler` trait in the `wasmtime_environ` crate has been souped
up with a number of methods that Wasmtime and other crates needed.
* The `wasmtime-debug` crate is now moved entirely behind the
`wasmtime-cranelift` crate.
* The `wasmtime-cranelift` crate is now only depended on by the
`wasmtime-jit` crate.
* Wasm types in `cranelift-wasm` no longer contain their IR type,
instead they only contain the `WasmType`. This is required to get
everything to align correctly but will also be required in a future
refactoring where the types used by `cranelift-wasm` will be extracted
to a separate crate.
* I moved around a fair bit of code in `wasmtime-cranelift`.
* Some gdb-specific jit-specific code has moved from `wasmtime-debug` to
`wasmtime-jit`.
* Move all trampoline compilation to `wasmtime-cranelift`
This commit moves compilation of all the trampolines used in wasmtime
behind the `Compiler` trait object to live in `wasmtime-cranelift`. The
long-term goal of this is to enable depending on cranelift *only* from
the `wasmtime-cranelift` crate, so by moving these dependencies we
should make that a little more flexible.
* Fix windows build
* Use stable Rust on CI to test the x64 backend
This commit leverages the newly-released 1.51.0 compiler to test the
new backend on Windows and Linux with a stable compiler instead of a
nightly compiler. This isolates the nightly build to just the nightly
documentation generation and fuzzing, both of which rely on nightly for
the best results right now.
* Use updated stable in book build job
* Run rustfmt for new stable
* Silence new warnings for wasi-nn
* Allow some dead code in the x64 backend
Looks like new rustc is better about emitting some dead-code warnings
* Update rust in peepmatic job
* Fix a test in the pooling allocator
* Remove `package.metdata.docs.rs` temporarily
Needs resolution of https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/9300 first
* Fix a warning in a wasi-nn example
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 commit calls `__register_frame` once for the entire frame table on
Linux.
On macOS, it still manually walks the frame table and registers each frame with
`__register_frame`.
This commit makes the following changes to unwind information generation in
Cranelift:
* Remove frame layout change implementation in favor of processing the prologue
and epilogue instructions when unwind information is requested. This also
means this work is no longer performed for Windows, which didn't utilize it.
It also helps simplify the prologue and epilogue generation code.
* Remove the unwind sink implementation that required each unwind information
to be represented in final form. For FDEs, this meant writing a
complete frame table per function, which wastes 20 bytes or so for each
function with duplicate CIEs. This also enables Cranelift users to collect the
unwind information and write it as a single frame table.
* For System V calling convention, the unwind information is no longer stored
in code memory (it's only a requirement for Windows ABI to do so). This allows
for more compact code memory for modules with a lot of functions.
* Deletes some duplicate code relating to frame table generation. Users can
now simply use gimli to create a frame table from each function's unwind
information.
Fixes#1181.
