* add clif-util compile option to output object file
* switch from a box to a borrow
* update objectmodule tests to use borrowed isa
* put targetisa into an arc
* Switch duplicate loads w/ dynamic memories test to `min_size = 0`
This test was accidentally hitting a special case for bounds checks for when we
know that `offset + access_size < min_size` and can skip some steps. This
commit changes the `min_size` of the memory to zero so that we are forced to do
fully general bounds checks.
* Cranelift: Mark `uadd_overflow_trap` as okay for GVN
Although this improves our test sequence for duplicate loads with dynamic
memories, it unfortunately doesn't have any effect on sightglass benchmarks:

This adds support for `.wat` tests in `cranelift-filetest`. The test runner
translates the WAT to Wasm and then uses `cranelift-wasm` to translate the Wasm
to CLIF.
These tests are always precise output tests. The test expectations can be
updated by running tests with the `CRANELIFT_TEST_BLESS=1` environment variable
set, similar to our compile precise output tests. The test's expected output is
contained in the last comment in the test file.
The tests allow for configuring the kinds of heaps used to implement Wasm linear
memory via TOML in a `;;!` comment at the start of the test.
To get ISA and Cranelift flags parsing available in the filetests crate, I had
to move the `parse_sets_and_triple` helper from the `cranelift-tools` binary
crate to the `cranelift-reader` crate, where I think it logically
fits.
Additionally, I had to make some more bits of `cranelift-wasm`'s dummy
environment `pub` so that I could properly wrap and compose it with the
environment used for the `.wat` tests. I don't think this is a big deal, but if
we eventually want to clean this stuff up, we can probably remove the dummy
environments completely, remove `translate_module`, and fold them into these new
test environments and test runner (since Wasmtime isn't using those things
anyways).
* Cranelift: Make `heap_addr` return calculated `base + index + offset`
Rather than return just the `base + index`.
(Note: I've chosen to use the nomenclature "index" for the dynamic operand and
"offset" for the static immediate.)
This move the addition of the `offset` into `heap_addr`, instead of leaving it
for the subsequent memory operation, so that we can Spectre-guard the full
address, and not allow speculative execution to read the first 4GiB of memory.
Before this commit, we were effectively doing
load(spectre_guard(base + index) + offset)
Now we are effectively doing
load(spectre_guard(base + index + offset))
Finally, this also corrects `heap_addr`'s documented semantics to say that it
returns an address that will trap on access if `index + offset + access_size` is
out of bounds for the given heap, rather than saying that the `heap_addr` itself
will trap. This matches the implemented behavior for static memories, and after
https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/pull/5190 lands (which is blocked
on this commit) will also match the implemented behavior for dynamic memories.
* Update heap_addr docs
* Factor out `offset + size` to a helper
* cranelift: improve syscall error/oom handling in JIT module
The JIT module has several places where it `expect`s or `panic`s
on syscall or allocator errors. For example, `mmap` and `mprotect`
can fail if Linux `vm.max_map_count` is not high enough, and some
users may wish to handle this error rather than immediately
crashing.
This commit plumbs these errors upward as new `ModuleError`
types, so that callers of jit module functions like
`finalize_definitions` and `define_function` can handle them
(or just `unwrap()`, as desired).
* cranelift: Remove ModuleError::Syscall variant
Syscall errors can just be folded into the generic Backend error,
which is an anyhow::Error
* cranelift-jit: return io::ErrorKind::OutOfMemory for alloc failure
Just using `io::Error::last_os_error()` is not correct as global
allocator impls are not required to set errno
Remove the boolean types from cranelift, and the associated instructions breduce, bextend, bconst, and bint. Standardize on using 1/0 for the return value from instructions that produce scalar boolean results, and -1/0 for boolean vector elements.

Rather than recursively computing the lowest-cost node for a given

this is sufficient. The behavior may slightly differ from the earlier
behavior because we cannot short-circuit costs to zero once a node is
elaborated; but in practice this should not matter.

* Replace resize+copy_from_slice with extend_from_slice
Vec::resize initializes the new space, which is wasted effort if we're
just going to call `copy_from_slice` on it immediately afterward. Using
`extend_from_slice` is simpler, and very slightly faster.
If the new size were bigger than the buffer we're copying from, then it
would make sense to initialize the excess. But it isn't: it's always
exactly the same size.
* Move helpers from Context to CompiledCode
These methods only use information from Context::compiled_code, so they
should live on CompiledCode instead.
* Remove an unnecessary #[cfg_attr]
There are other uses of `#[allow(clippy::too_many_arguments)]` in this
file, so apparently it doesn't need to be guarded by the "cargo-clippy"
feature.
* Fix a few comments
Two of these were wrong/misleading:
- `FunctionBuilder::new` does not clear the provided func_ctx. It does
debug-assert that the context is already clear, but I don't think
that's worth a comment.
- `switch_to_block` does not "create values for the arguments." That's
done by the combination of `append_block_params_for_function_params`
and `declare_wasm_parameters`.
* wasmtime-cranelift: Misc cleanups
The main change is to use the `CompiledCode` reference we already had
instead of getting it out of `Context` repeatedly. This removes a bunch
of `unwrap()` calls.
* wasmtime-cranelift: Factor out uncached compile
* cranelift: Implement `bnot` in interpreter
* cranelift: Register all functions in test file for interpreter
* cranelift: Relax signature checking for bools and vectors
* cranelift: Change test runner order
Changes the ordering of runtests to run per target and then per function.
This change doesn't do a lot by itself, but helps future refactorings of runtests.
* cranelift: Rename SingleFunctionCompiler to TestCaseCompiler
* cranelift: Skip runtests per target instead of per run
* cranelift: Deduplicate test names
With the upcoming changes to the runtest infrastructure we require unique ExtNames for all tests.
Note that for test names we have a 16 character limit on test names, and must be unique within those 16 characters.
* cranelift: Add TestFileCompiler to runtests
TestFileCompiler allows us to compile the entire file once, and then call the trampolines for each test.
The previous code was compiling the function for each invocation of a test.
* cranelift: Deduplicate ExtName for avg_round tests
* cranelift: Rename functions as they are defined.
The JIT internally only deals with User functions, and cannot link test name funcs.
This also caches trampolines by signature.
* cranelift: Preserve original name when reporting errors.
* cranelift: Rename aarch64 test functions
* cranelift: Add `call` and `call_indirect` tests!
* cranelift: Add pauth runtests for aarch64
* cranelift: Rename duplicate s390x tests
* cranelift: Delete `i128_bricmp_of` function from i128-bricmp
It looks like we forgot to delete it when it was moved to
`i128-bricmp-overflow`, and since it didn't have a run invocation
it was never compiled.
However, s390x does not support this, and panics when lowering.
* cranelift: Add `colocated` call tests
* cranelift: Rename *more* `s390x` tests
* cranelift: Add pauth + sign_return_address call tests
* cranelift: Undeduplicate test names
With the latest main changes we now support *unlimited* length test names.

This is the implementation of https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/issues/4155, using the "inverted API" approach suggested by @cfallin (thanks!) in Cranelift, and trait object to provide a backend for an all-included experience in Wasmtime.
After the suggestion of Chris, `Function` has been split into mostly two parts:
- on the one hand, `FunctionStencil` contains all the fields required during compilation, and that act as a compilation cache key: if two function stencils are the same, then the result of their compilation (`CompiledCodeBase<Stencil>`) will be the same. This makes caching trivial, as the only thing to cache is the `FunctionStencil`.
- on the other hand, `FunctionParameters` contain the... function parameters that are required to finalize the result of compilation into a `CompiledCode` (aka `CompiledCodeBase<Final>`) with proper final relocations etc., by applying fixups and so on.
Most changes are here to accomodate those requirements, in particular that `FunctionStencil` should be `Hash`able to be used as a key in the cache:
- most source locations are now relative to a base source location in the function, and as such they're encoded as `RelSourceLoc` in the `FunctionStencil`. This required changes so that there's no need to explicitly mark a `SourceLoc` as the base source location, it's automatically detected instead the first time a non-default `SourceLoc` is set.
- user-defined external names in the `FunctionStencil` (aka before this patch `ExternalName::User { namespace, index }`) are now references into an external table of `UserExternalNameRef -> UserExternalName`, present in the `FunctionParameters`, and must be explicitly declared using `Function::declare_imported_user_function`.
- some refactorings have been made for function names:
- `ExternalName` was used as the type for a `Function`'s name; while it thus allowed `ExternalName::Libcall` in this place, this would have been quite confusing to use it there. Instead, a new enum `UserFuncName` is introduced for this name, that's either a user-defined function name (the above `UserExternalName`) or a test case name.
- The future of `ExternalName` is likely to become a full reference into the `FunctionParameters`'s mapping, instead of being "either a handle for user-defined external names, or the thing itself for other variants". I'm running out of time to do this, and this is not trivial as it implies touching ISLE which I'm less familiar with.
The cache computes a sha256 hash of the `FunctionStencil`, and uses this as the cache key. No equality check (using `PartialEq`) is performed in addition to the hash being the same, as we hope that this is sufficient data to avoid collisions.
A basic fuzz target has been introduced that tries to do the bare minimum:
- check that a function successfully compiled and cached will be also successfully reloaded from the cache, and returns the exact same function.
- check that a trivial modification in the external mapping of `UserExternalNameRef -> UserExternalName` hits the cache, and that other modifications don't hit the cache.
- This last check is less efficient and less likely to happen, so probably should be rethought a bit.
Thanks to both @alexcrichton and @cfallin for your very useful feedback on Zulip.
Some numbers show that for a large wasm module we're using internally, this is a 20% compile-time speedup, because so many `FunctionStencil`s are the same, even within a single module. For a group of modules that have a lot of code in common, we get hit rates up to 70% when they're used together. When a single function changes in a wasm module, every other function is reloaded; that's still slower than I expect (between 10% and 50% of the overall compile time), so there's likely room for improvement.
Fixes#4155.
This implements the s390x back-end portion of the solution for
https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/issues/4566
We now support both big- and little-endian vector lane order
in code generation. The order used for a function is determined
by the function's ABI: if it uses a Wasmtime ABI, it will use
little-endian lane order, and big-endian lane order otherwise.
(This ensures that all raw_bitcast instructions generated by
both wasmtime and other cranelift frontends can always be
implemented as a no-op.)
Lane order affects the implementation of a number of operations:
- Vector immediates
- Vector memory load / store (in big- and little-endian variants)
- Operations explicitly using lane numbers
(insertlane, extractlane, shuffle, swizzle)
- Operations implicitly using lane numbers
(iadd_pairwise, narrow/widen, promote/demote, fcvt_low, vhigh_bits)
In addition, when calling a function using a different lane order,
we need to lane-swap all vector values passed or returned in registers.
A small number of changes to common code were also needed:
- Ensure we always select a Wasmtime calling convention on s390x
in crates/cranelift (func_signature).
- Fix vector immediates for filetests/runtests. In PR #4427,
I attempted to fix this by byte-swapping the V128 value, but
with the new scheme, we'd instead need to perform a per-lane
byte swap. Since we do not know the actual type in write_to_slice
and read_from_slice, this isn't easily possible.
Revert this part of PR #4427 again, and instead just mark the
memory buffer as little-endian when emitting the trampoline;
the back-end will then emit correct code to load the constant.
- Change a runtest in simd-bitselect-to-vselect.clif to no longer
make little-endian lane order assumptions.
- Remove runtests in simd-swizzle.clif that make little-endian
lane order assumptions by relying on implicit type conversion
when using a non-i16x8 swizzle result type (this feature should
probably be removed anyway).
Tested with both wasmtime and cg_clif.
* cranelift: Use JIT in runtests
Using `cranelift-jit` in run tests allows us to preform relocations and
libcalls. This is important since some instruction lowerings fallback
to libcall's when an extension is missing, or when it's too complicated
to implement manually.
This is also a first step to being able to test `call`'s between functions
in the runtest suite. It should also make it easier to eventually test
TLS relocations, symbol resolution and ABI's.
Another benefit of this is that we also get to test the JIT more, since
it now runs the runtests, and gets some fuzzing via `fuzzgen` (which
uses the `SingleFunctionCompiler`).
This change causes regressions in terms of runtime for the filetests.
I haven't done any serious benchmarking but what I've been seeing is
that it now takes about ~3 seconds to run the testsuite while it
previously took around 2 seconds.
* Add FMA tests for X86
* Cranelift: Don't print "skipped TEST can't run aarch64" on x64, etc
It's way too noisy. Move it to the logs.
* Cranelift: Enable Cranelift trace logs in `clif-util` by default
* cranelift-filetest: use `log::warn!` for warnings
Instead of `println!`
* rustfmt
* Move `emit_to_memory` to `MachCompileResult`
This small refactoring makes it clearer to me that emitting to memory
doesn't require anything else from the compilation `Context`. While it's
a trivial change, it's a small public API change that shouldn't cause
too much trouble, and doesn't seem RFC-worthy. Happy to hear different
opinions about this, though!
* hide the MachCompileResult behind a method
* Add a `CompileError` wrapper type that references a `Function`
* Rename MachCompileResult to CompiledCode
* Additionally remove the last unsafe API in cranelift-codegen
This PR adds a basic *alias analysis*, and optimizations that use it.
This is a "mid-end optimization": it operates on CLIF, the
machine-independent IR, before lowering occurs.
The alias analysis (or maybe more properly, a sort of memory-value
analysis) determines when it can prove a particular memory
location is equal to a given SSA value, and when it can, it replaces any
loads of that location.
This subsumes two common optimizations:
* Redundant load elimination: when the same memory address is loaded two
times, and it can be proven that no intervening operations will write
to that memory, then the second load is *redundant* and its result
must be the same as the first. We can use the first load's result and
remove the second load.
* Store-to-load forwarding: when a load can be proven to access exactly
the memory written by a preceding store, we can replace the load's
result with the store's data operand, and remove the load.
Both of these optimizations rely on a "last store" analysis that is a
sort of coloring mechanism, split across disjoint categories of abstract
state. The basic idea is that every memory-accessing operation is put
into one of N disjoint categories; it is disallowed for memory to ever
be accessed by an op in one category and later accessed by an op in
another category. (The frontend must ensure this.)
Then, given this, we scan the code and determine, for each
memory-accessing op, when a single prior instruction is a store to the
same category. This "colors" the instruction: it is, in a sense, a
static name for that version of memory.
This analysis provides an important invariant: if two operations access
memory with the same last-store, then *no other store can alias* in the
time between that last store and these operations. This must-not-alias
property, together with a check that the accessed address is *exactly
the same* (same SSA value and offset), and other attributes of the
access (type, extension mode) are the same, let us prove that the
results are the same.
Given last-store info, we scan the instructions and build a table from
"memory location" key (last store, address, offset, type, extension) to
known SSA value stored in that location. A store inserts a new mapping.
A load may also insert a new mapping, if we didn't already have one.
Then when a load occurs and an entry already exists for its "location",
we can reuse the value. This will be either RLE or St-to-Ld depending on
where the value came from.
Note that this *does* work across basic blocks: the last-store analysis
is a full iterative dataflow pass, and we are careful to check dominance
of a previously-defined value before aliasing to it at a potentially
redundant load. So we will do the right thing if we only have a
"partially redundant" load (loaded already but only in one predecessor
block), but we will also correctly reuse a value if there is a store or
load above a loop and a redundant load of that value within the loop, as
long as no potentially-aliasing stores happen within the loop.
Addresses #3809: when we are asked to create a Cranelift backend with
shared flags that indicate support for SIMD, we should check that the
ISA level needed for our SIMD lowerings is present.
In #3721, we have been discussing what to do about the ARM32 backend in
Cranelift. Currently, this backend supports only 32-bit types, which is
insufficient for full Wasm-MVP; it's missing other critical bits, like
floating-point support; and it has only ever been exercised, AFAIK, via
the filetests for the individual CLIF instructions that are implemented.
We were very very thankful for the original contribution of this
backend, even in its partial state, and we had hoped at the time that we
could eventually mature it in-tree until it supported e.g. Wasm and
other use-cases. But that hasn't yet happened -- to the blame of no-one,
to be clear, we just haven't had a contributor with sufficient time.
Unfortunately, the existence of the backend and lack of active
maintainer now potentially pose a bit of a burden as we hope to make
continuing changes to the backend framework. For example, the ISLE
migration, and the use of regalloc2 that it will allow, would need all
of the existing lowering patterns in the hand-written ARM32 backend to
be rewritten as ISLE rules.
Given that we don't currently have the resources to do this, we think
it's probably best if we, sadly, for now remove this partial backend.
This is not in any way a statement of what we might accept in the
future, though. If, in the future, an ARM32 backend updated to our
latest codebase with an active maintainer were to appear, we'd be happy
to merge it (and likewise for any other architecture!). But for now,
this is probably the best path. Thanks again to the original contributor
@jmkrauz and we hope that this work can eventually be brought back and
reused if someone has the time to do so!
* Update lots of `isa/*/*.clif` tests to `precise-output`
This commit goes through the `aarch64` and `x64` subdirectories and
subjectively changes tests from `test compile` to add `precise-output`.
This then auto-updates all the test expectations so they can be
automatically instead of manually updated in the future. Not all tests
were migrated, largely subject to the whims of myself, mainly looking to
see if the test was looking for specific instructions or just checking
the whole assembly output.
* Filter out `;;` comments from test expctations
Looks like the cranelift parser picks up all comments, not just those
trailing the function, so use a convention where `;;` is used for
human-readable-comments in test cases and `;`-prefixed comments are the
test expectation.
* cranelift: Add ability to auto-update test expectations
One of the problems of the current `*.clif` testing is that the files
are difficult to update when widespread changes are made (such as
removing modification of the frame pointer). Additionally when changing
register allocation or similar it can cause a large number of changes in
tests but the tests themselves didn't actually break. For this reason
this commit adds the ability to automatically update test expectations.
The idea behind this commit is that tests of the form `test compile` can
also optionally be flagged with the `precise-output` flag:
test compile precise-output
and when doing so the compiled form of each function is asserted to 100%
match the following comments and their test expectations. If a match is
not found then a `BLESS=1` environment variable can be used to
automatically rewrite the test file itself with the correct assertion.
If the environment variable isn't present and the expectation doesn't
match then the test fails.
It's hoped that, if approved, a follow-up commit can add
`precise-output` to all current `test compile` tests (or make it the
default) and all tests can be mass-updated. When developing locally test
expectations need not be written and instead tests can be run with
`BLESS=1` and the output can be manually verified. The environment
variable will not be present on CI which means that changes to the
output which don't also change the test expectation will cause CI to
fail. Furthermore this should still make updates to the test output
easily readable in review on CI because the test expectations are
intended to look the same as before.
Closes#1539
* Use raw vcode output in tests
* Fix a merge conflict
* Review comments
This commit translates the `rotl` and `rotr` lowerings already existing
to ISLE. The port was relatively straightforward with the biggest
changing being the instructions generated around i128 rotl/rotr
primarily due to register changes.
Peepmatic was an early attempt at a DSL for peephole optimizations, with the
idea that maybe sometime in the future we could user it for instruction
selection as well. It didn't really pan out, however:
* Peepmatic wasn't quite flexible enough, and adding new operators or snippets
of code implemented externally in Rust was a bit of a pain.
* The performance was never competitive with the hand-written peephole
optimizers. It was *very* size efficient, but that came at the cost of
run-time efficiency. Everything was table-based and interpreted, rather than
generating any Rust code.
Ultimately, because of these reasons, we never turned Peepmatic on by default.
These days, we just landed the ISLE domain-specific language, and it is better
suited than Peepmatic for all the things that Peepmatic was originally designed
to do. It is more flexible and easy to integrate with external Rust code. It is
has better time efficiency, meeting or even beating hand-written code. I think a
small part of the reason why ISLE excels in these things is because its design
was informed by Peepmatic's failures. I still plan on continuing Peepmatic's
mission to make Cranelift's peephole optimizer passes generated from DSL rewrite
rules, but using ISLE instead of Peepmatic.
Thank you Peepmatic, rest in peace!
With the old backends, this would log the lowered+legalized clif, but the log is
useles now with the new backends. Logging the disasm is the new moral
equivalent.
This also paves the way for unifying TargetIsa and MachBackend, since now they map one to one. In theory the two traits could be merged, which would be nice to limit the number of total concepts. Also they have quite different responsibilities, so it might be fine to keep them separate.
Interestingly, this PR started as removing RegInfo from the TargetIsa trait since the adapter returned a dummy value there. From the fallout, noticed that all Display implementations didn't needed an ISA anymore (since these were only used to render ISA specific registers). Also the whole family of RegInfo / ValueLoc / RegUnit was exclusively used for the old backend, and these could be removed. Notably, some IR instructions needed to be removed, because they were using RegUnit too: this was the oddball of regfill / regmove / regspill / copy_special, which were IR instructions inserted by the old regalloc. Fare thee well!
