* Remove some allocations in `CodeMemory`
This commit removes the `FinishedFunctions` type as well as allocations
associated with trampolines when allocating inside of a `CodeMemory`.
The main goal of this commit is to improve the time spent in
`CodeMemory` where currently today a good portion of time is spent
simply parsing symbol names and trying to extract function indices from
them. Instead this commit implements a new strategy (different from #3236)
where compilation records offset/length information for all
functions/trampolines so this doesn't need to be re-learned from the
object file later.
A consequence of this commit is that this offset information will be
decoded/encoded through `bincode` unconditionally, but we can also
optimize that later if necessary as well.
Internally this involved quite a bit of refactoring since the previous
map for `FinishedFunctions` was relatively heavily relied upon.

* Use an mmap-friendly serialization format
This commit reimplements the main serialization format for Wasmtime's
precompiled artifacts. Previously they were generally a binary blob of
`bincode`-encoded metadata prefixed with some versioning information.
The downside of this format, though, is that loading a precompiled
artifact required pushing all information through `bincode`. This is
inefficient when some data, such as trap/address tables, are rarely
accessed.
The new format added in this commit is one which is designed to be
`mmap`-friendly. This means that the relevant parts of the precompiled
artifact are already page-aligned for updating permissions of pieces
here and there. Additionally the artifact is optimized so that if data
is rarely read then we can delay reading it until necessary.
The new artifact format for serialized modules is an ELF file. This is
not a public API guarantee, so it cannot be relied upon. In the meantime
though this is quite useful for exploring precompiled modules with
standard tooling like `objdump`. The ELF file is already constructed as
part of module compilation, and this is the main contents of the
serialized artifact.
THere is some extra information, though, not encoded in each module's
individual ELF file such as type information. This information continues
to be `bincode`-encoded, but it's intended to be much smaller and much
faster to deserialize. This extra information is appended to the end of
the ELF file. This means that the original ELF file is still a valid ELF
file, we just get to have extra bits at the end. More information on the
new format can be found in the module docs of the serialization module
of Wasmtime.
Another refatoring implemented as part of this commit is to deserialize
and store object files directly in `mmap`-backed storage. This avoids
the need to copy bytes after the artifact is loaded into memory for each
compiled module, and in a future commit it opens up the door to avoiding
copying the text section into a `CodeMemory`. For now, though, the main
change is that copies are not necessary when loading from a precompiled
compilation artifact once the artifact is itself in mmap-based memory.
To assist with managing `mmap`-based memory a new `MmapVec` type was
added to `wasmtime_jit` which acts as a form of `Vec<T>` backed by a
`wasmtime_runtime::Mmap`. This type notably supports `drain(..N)` to
slice the buffer into disjoint regions that are all separately owned,
such as having a separately owned window into one artifact for all
object files contained within.
Finally this commit implements a small refactoring in `wasmtime-cache`
to use the standard artifact format for cache entries rather than a
bincode-encoded version. This required some more hooks for
serializing/deserializing but otherwise the crate still performs as
before.
* Review comments
This commit moves the `traps` field of `FunctionInfo` into a section of
the compiled artifact produced by Cranelift. This section is quite large
and when previously encoded/decoded with `bincode` this can take quite
some time to process. Traps are expected to be relatively rare and it's
not necessarily the right tradeoff to spend so much time
serializing/deserializing this data, so this commit offloads the section
into a custom-encoded binary format located elsewhere in the compiled image.
This is similar to #3240 in its goal which is to move very large pieces
of metadata to their own sections to avoid decoding anything when we
load a precompiled modules. This also has a small benefit that it's
slightly more efficient storage for the trap information too, but that's
a negligible benefit.
This is part of #3230 to make loading modules fast.
This commit moves the `address_map` field of `FunctionInfo` into a
custom-encoded section of the executable. The goal of this commit is, as
previous commits, to push less data through `bincode`. The `address_map`
field is actually extremely large and has huge benefits of not being
decoded when we load a module. This data is only used for traps and such
as well, so it's not overly important that it's massaged in to precise
data the runtime can extremely speedily use.
The `FunctionInfo` type does retain a tiny bit of information about the
function itself (it's start source location), but other than that the
`FunctionAddressMap` structure is moved from `wasmtime-environ` to
`wasmtime-cranelift` since it's now no longer needed outside of that
context.
* Convert compilation artifacts to just bytes
This commit strips the `CompilationArtifacts` type down to simply a list
of bytes. This moves all extra metadata elsewhere to live within the
list of bytes itself as `bincode`-encoded information.
Small affordance is made to avoid an in-process
serialize-then-deserialize round-trip for use cases like `Module::new`,
but otherwise this is mostly just moving some data around.
* Rename data section to `.rodata.wasm`
* Merge `wasmtime-jit` and `wasmtime-profiling`
This commit merges the `wasmtime-profiling` crate into the
`wasmtime-jit` crate. It wasn't really buying a ton being a separate
crate and an upcoming refactoring I'd like to do is to remove the
`FinishedFunctions` structure. To enable the profilers to work as they
used to this commit changes them to pass `CompiledModule` as the
argument, but this only works if the profiling trait can see the
`CompiledModule` type.
* Fix a length calculation
This refactoring primarily removes the dependency of the gdbjit image
creation on the `finished_functions` array, which shouldn't be necessary
given the input object being passed in since information can be read
from the object instead. Additionally, though, this commit also removes
all `unsafe` from the file, relying on various tools in the `object`
crate to parse the internals and update various fields.
* Move wasm data/debuginfo into the ELF compilation image
This commit moves existing allocations of `Box<[u8]>` stored separately
from compilation's final ELF image into the ELF image itself. The goal
of this commit is to reduce the amount of data which `bincode` will need
to process in the future. DWARF debugging information and wasm data
segments can be quite large, and they're relatively rarely read, so
there's typically no need to copy them around. Instead by moving them
into the ELF image this opens up the opportunity in the future to
eliminate copies and use data directly as-found in the image itself.
For information accessed possibly-multiple times, such as the wasm data
ranges, the indexes of the data within the ELF image are computed when
a `CompiledModule` is created. These indexes are then used to directly
index into the image without having to root around in the ELF file each
time they're accessed.
One other change located here is that the symbolication context
previously cloned the debug information into it to adhere to the
`'static` lifetime safely, but this isn't actually ever used in
`wasmtime` right now so the unsafety around this has been removed and
instead borrowed data is returned (no more clones, yay!).
* Fix lightbeam
* Reduce indentation in `to_paged`
Use a few early-returns from `match` to avoid lots of extra indentation.
* Move wasm data sections out of `wasmtime_environ::Module`
This is the first step down the road of #3230. The long-term goal is
that `Module` is always `bincode`-decoded, but wasm data segments are a
possibly very-large portion of this residing in modules which we don't
want to shove through bincode. This refactors the internals of wasmtime
to be ok with this data living separately from the `Module` itself,
providing access at necessary locations.
Wasm data segments are now extracted from a wasm module and
concatenated directly. Data sections then describe ranges within this
concatenated list of data, and passive data works the same way. This
implementation does not lend itself to eventually optimizing the case
where passive data is dropped and no longer needed. That's left for a
future PR.
This commit removes the unsafety present in the `link_module` function
by bounds-checking all relocations that we apply, using utilities from
the `object` crate for convenience. This isn't intended to have any
actual functional change, just ideally improving the safety a bit here
in the case of future bugs.
* Remove unnecessary into_iter/map
Forgotten from a previous refactoring, this variable was already of the
right type!
* Move `wasmtime_jit::Compiler` into `wasmtime`
This `Compiler` struct is mostly a historical artifact at this point and
wasn't necessarily pulling much weight any more. This organization also
doesn't lend itself super well to compiling out `cranelift` when the
`Compiler` here is used for both parallel iteration configuration
settings as well as compilation.
The movement into `wasmtime` is relatively small, with
`Module::build_artifacts` being the main function added here which is a
merging of the previous functions removed from the `wasmtime-jit` crate.
* Add a `cranelift` compile-time feature to `wasmtime`
This commit concludes the saga of refactoring Wasmtime and making
Cranelift an optional dependency by adding a new Cargo feature to the
`wasmtime` crate called `cranelift`, which is enabled by default.
This feature is implemented by having a new cfg for `wasmtime` itself,
`cfg(compiler)`, which is used wherever compilation is necessary. This
bubbles up to disable APIs such as `Module::new`, `Func::new`,
`Engine::precompile_module`, and a number of `Config` methods affecting
compiler configuration. Checks are added to CI that when built in this
mode Wasmtime continues to successfully build. It's hoped that although
this is effectively "sprinkle `#[cfg]` until things compile" this won't
be too too bad to maintain over time since it's also an use case we're
interested in supporting.
With `cranelift` disabled the only way to create a `Module` is with the
`Module::deserialize` method, which requires some form of precompiled
artifact.
Two consequences of this change are:
* `Module::serialize` is also disabled in this mode. The reason for this
is that serialized modules contain ISA/shared flags encoded in them
which were used to produce the compiled code. There's no storage for
this if compilation is disabled. This could probably be re-enabled in
the future if necessary, but it may not end up being all that necessary.
* Deserialized modules are not checked to ensure that their ISA/shared
flags are compatible with the host CPU. This is actually already the
case, though, with normal modules. We'll likely want to fix this in
the future using a shared implementation for both these locations.
Documentation should be updated to indicate that `cranelift` can be
disabled, although it's not really the most prominent documentation
because this is expected to be a somewhat niche use case (albeit
important, just not too common).
* Always enable cranelift for the C API
* Fix doc example builds
* Fix check tests on GitHub Actions
* Move `CompiledFunction` into wasmtime-cranelift
This commit moves the `wasmtime_environ::CompiledFunction` type into the
`wasmtime-cranelift` crate. This type has lots of Cranelift-specific
pieces of compilation and doesn't need to be generated by all Wasmtime
compilers. This replaces the usage in the `Compiler` trait with a
`Box<Any>` type that each compiler can select. Each compiler must still
produce a `FunctionInfo`, however, which is shared information we'll
deserialize for each module.
The `wasmtime-debug` crate is also folded into the `wasmtime-cranelift`
crate as a result of this commit. One possibility was to move the
`CompiledFunction` commit into its own crate and have `wasmtime-debug`
depend on that, but since `wasmtime-debug` is Cranelift-specific at this
time it didn't seem like it was too too necessary to keep it separate.
If `wasmtime-debug` supports other backends in the future we can
recreate a new crate, perhaps with it refactored to not depend on
Cranelift.
* Move wasmtime_environ::reference_type
This now belongs in wasmtime-cranelift and nowhere else
* Remove `Type` reexport in wasmtime-environ
One less dependency on `cranelift-codegen`!
* Remove `types` reexport from `wasmtime-environ`
Less cranelift!
* Remove `SourceLoc` from wasmtime-environ
Change the `srcloc`, `start_srcloc`, and `end_srcloc` fields to a custom
`FilePos` type instead of `ir::SourceLoc`. These are only used in a few
places so there's not much to lose from an extra abstraction for these
leaf use cases outside of cranelift.
* Remove wasmtime-environ's dep on cranelift's `StackMap`
This commit "clones" the `StackMap` data structure in to
`wasmtime-environ` to have an independent representation that that
chosen by Cranelift. This allows Wasmtime to decouple this runtime
dependency of stack map information and let the two evolve
independently, if necessary.
An alternative would be to refactor cranelift's implementation into a
separate crate and have wasmtime depend on that but it seemed a bit like
overkill to do so and easier to clone just a few lines for this.
* Define code offsets in wasmtime-environ with `u32`
Don't use Cranelift's `binemit::CodeOffset` alias to define this field
type since the `wasmtime-environ` crate will be losing the
`cranelift-codegen` dependency soon.
* Commit to using `cranelift-entity` in Wasmtime
This commit removes the reexport of `cranelift-entity` from the
`wasmtime-environ` crate and instead directly depends on the
`cranelift-entity` crate in all referencing crates. The original reason
for the reexport was to make cranelift version bumps easier since it's
less versions to change, but nowadays we have a script to do that.
Otherwise this encourages crates to use whatever they want from
`cranelift-entity` since we'll always depend on the whole crate.
It's expected that the `cranelift-entity` crate will continue to be a
lean crate in dependencies and suitable for use at both runtime and
compile time. Consequently there's no need to avoid its usage in
Wasmtime at runtime, since "remove Cranelift at compile time" is
primarily about the `cranelift-codegen` crate.
* Remove most uses of `cranelift-codegen` in `wasmtime-environ`
There's only one final use remaining, which is the reexport of
`TrapCode`, which will get handled later.
* Limit the glob-reexport of `cranelift_wasm`
This commit removes the glob reexport of `cranelift-wasm` from the
`wasmtime-environ` crate. This is intended to explicitly define what
we're reexporting and is a transitionary step to curtail the amount of
dependencies taken on `cranelift-wasm` throughout the codebase. For
example some functions used by debuginfo mapping are better imported
directly from the crate since they're Cranelift-specific. Note that
this is intended to be a temporary state affairs, soon this reexport
will be gone entirely.
Additionally this commit reduces imports from `cranelift_wasm` and also
primarily imports from `crate::wasm` within `wasmtime-environ` to get a
better sense of what's imported from where and what will need to be
shared.
* Extract types from cranelift-wasm to cranelift-wasm-types
This commit creates a new crate called `cranelift-wasm-types` and
extracts type definitions from the `cranelift-wasm` crate into this new
crate. The purpose of this crate is to be a shared definition of wasm
types that can be shared both by compilers (like Cranelift) as well as
wasm runtimes (e.g. Wasmtime). This new `cranelift-wasm-types` crate
doesn't depend on `cranelift-codegen` and is the final step in severing
the unconditional dependency from Wasmtime to `cranelift-codegen`.
The final refactoring in this commit is to then reexport this crate from
`wasmtime-environ`, delete the `cranelift-codegen` dependency, and then
update all `use` paths to point to these new types.
The main change of substance here is that the `TrapCode` enum is
mirrored from Cranelift into this `cranelift-wasm-types` crate. While
this unfortunately results in three definitions (one more which is
non-exhaustive in Wasmtime itself) it's hopefully not too onerous and
ideally something we can patch up in the future.
* Get lightbeam compiling
* Remove unnecessary dependency
* Fix compile with uffd
* Update publish script
* Fix more uffd tests
* Rename cranelift-wasm-types to wasmtime-types
This reflects the purpose a bit more where it's types specifically
intended for Wasmtime and its support.
* Fix publish script
* 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
* Bump the wasm-tools crates
Pulls in some updates here and there, mostly for updating crates to the
latest version to prepare for later memory64 work.
* Update lightbeam
* Start a high-level architecture document for Wasmtime
This commit cleands up some existing documentation by removing a number
of "noop README files" and starting a high-level overview of the
architecture of Wasmtime. I've placed this documentation under the
contributing section of the book since it seems most useful for possible
contributors.
I've surely left some things out in this pass, and am happy to add more!
* Review comments
* More rewording
* typos
* Update wasm-tools crates
This brings in recent updates, notably including more improvements to
wasm-smith which will hopefully help exercise non-trapping wasm more.
* Fix some wat
This adds benchmarks around module instantiation using criterion.
Both the default (i.e. on-demand) and pooling allocators are tested
sequentially and in parallel using a thread pool.
Instantiation is tested with an empty module, a module with a single page
linear memory, a larger linear memory with a data initializer, and a "hello
world" Rust WASI program.
* Upgrade to the latest versions of gimli, addr2line, object
And adapt to API changes. New gimli supports wasm dwarf, resulting in
some simplifications in the debug crate.
* upgrade gimli usage in linux-specific profiling too
* Add "continue" statement after interpreting a wasm local dwarf opcode
* Make `FunctionInfo` public and `CompiledModule::func_info` return it.
* Make the `StackMapLookup` trait unsafe.
* Add comments for the purpose of `EngineHostFuncs`.
* Rework ownership model of shared signatures: `SignatureCollection` in
conjunction with `SignatureRegistry` is now used so that the `Engine`,
`Store`, and `Module` don't need to worry about unregistering shared
signatures.
* Implement `Func::param_arity` and `Func::result_arity` in terms of
`Func::ty`.
* Make looking up a trampoline with the module registry more efficient by doing
a binary search on the function's starting PC value for the owning module and
then looking up the trampoline with only that module.
* Remove reference to the shared signatures from `GlobalRegisteredModule`.
This commit removes the stack map registry and instead uses the existing
information from the store's module registry to lookup stack maps.
A trait is now used to pass the lookup context to the runtime, implemented by
`Store` to do the lookup.
With this change, module registration in `Store` is now entirely limited to
inserting the module into the module registry.
This commit is intended to be a perf improvement for instantiation of
modules with lots of functions. Previously the `lookup_shared_signature`
callback was showing up quite high in profiles as part of instantiation.
As some background, this callback is used to translate from a module's
`SignatureIndex` to a `VMSharedSignatureIndex` which the instance
stores. This callback is called for two reasons, one is to translate all
of the module's own types into `VMSharedSignatureIndex` for the purposes
of `call_indirect` (the translation of that loads from this table to
compare indices). The second reason is that a `VMCallerCheckedAnyfunc`
is prepared for all functions and this embeds a `VMSharedSignatureIndex`
inside of it.
The slow part today is that the lookup callback was called
once-per-function and each lookup involved hashing a full
`WasmFuncType`. Albeit our hash algorithm is still Rust's default
SipHash algorithm which is quite slow, but we also shouldn't need to
re-hash each signature if we see it multiple times anyway.
The fix applied in this commit is to change this lookup callback to an
`enum` where one variant is that there's a table to lookup from. This
table is a `PrimaryMap` which means that lookup is quite fast. The only
thing we need to do is to prepare the table ahead of time. Currently
this happens on the instantiation path because in my measurments the
creation of the table is quite fast compared to the rest of
instantiation. If this becomes an issue, though, we can look into
creating the table as part of `SigRegistry::register_module` and caching
it somewhere (I'm not entirely sure where but I'm sure we can figure it
out).
There's in generally not a ton of efficiency around the `SigRegistry`
type. I'm hoping though that this fixes the next-lowest-hanging-fruit in
terms of performance without complicating the implementation too much. I
tried a few variants and this change seemed like the best balance
between simplicity and still a nice performance gain.
Locally I measured an improvement in instantiation time for a large-ish
module by reducing the time from ~3ms to ~2.6ms per instance.
* Remove `once-cell` dependency.
* Remove function address `BTreeMap` from `CompiledModule` in favor of binary
searching finished functions directly.
* Use `with_capacity` when populating `CompiledModule` finished functions and
trampolines.
This commit refactors the store frame information to eliminate the copying of
data out from `CompiledModule`.
It also moves the population of a `BTreeMap` out of the frame information and
into `CompiledModule` where it is only ever calculated once rather than at
every new module instantiation into a `Store`. The map is also lazy-initialized
so the cost of populating the map is incurred only when a trap occurs.
This should help improve instantiation time of modules with a large number of
functions and functions with lots of instructions.
* Fully support multiple returns in Wasmtime
For quite some time now Wasmtime has "supported" multiple return values,
but only in the mose bare bones ways. Up until recently you couldn't get
a typed version of functions with multiple return values, and never have
you been able to use `Func::wrap` with functions that return multiple
values. Even recently where `Func::typed` can call functions that return
multiple values it uses a double-indirection by calling a trampoline
which calls the real function.
The underlying reason for this lack of support is that cranelift's ABI
for returning multiple values is not possible to write in Rust. For
example if a wasm function returns two `i32` values there is no Rust (or
C!) function you can write to correspond to that. This commit, however
fixes that.
This commit adds two new ABIs to Cranelift: `WasmtimeSystemV` and
`WasmtimeFastcall`. The intention is that these Wasmtime-specific ABIs
match their corresponding ABI (e.g. `SystemV` or `WindowsFastcall`) for
everything *except* how multiple values are returned. For multiple
return values we simply define our own version of the ABI which Wasmtime
implements, which is that for N return values the first is returned as
if the function only returned that and the latter N-1 return values are
returned via an out-ptr that's the last parameter to the function.
These custom ABIs provides the ability for Wasmtime to bind these in
Rust meaning that `Func::wrap` can now wrap functions that return
multiple values and `Func::typed` no longer uses trampolines when
calling functions that return multiple values. Although there's lots of
internal changes there's no actual changes in the API surface area of
Wasmtime, just a few more impls of more public traits which means that
more types are supported in more places!
Another change made with this PR is a consolidation of how the ABI of
each function in a wasm module is selected. The native `SystemV` ABI,
for example, is more efficient at returning multiple values than the
wasmtime version of the ABI (since more things are in more registers).
To continue to take advantage of this Wasmtime will now classify some
functions in a wasm module with the "fast" ABI. Only functions that are
not reachable externally from the module are classified with the fast
ABI (e.g. those not exported, used in tables, or used with `ref.func`).
This should enable purely internal functions of modules to have a faster
calling convention than those which might be exposed to Wasmtime itself.

development and testing for some time now.
The old backend is still available by default in builds with the
`old-x86-backend` feature, or by requesting `BackendVariant::Legacy`
from the appropriate APIs.
As part of that switch, it adds some more runtime-configurable plumbing
to the testing infrastructure so that tests can be run using the
appropriate backend. `clif-util test` is now capable of parsing a
backend selector option from filetests and instantiating the correct
backend.
CI has been updated so that the old x86 backend continues to run its
tests, just as we used to run the new x64 backend separately.
At some point, we will remove the old x86 backend entirely, once we are
satisfied that the new backend has not caused any unforeseen issues and
we do not need to revert.
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
```
Previously each module in a module-linking-using-module would compile
all the trampolines for all signatures for all modules. In forest-like
situations with lots of modules this would cause quite a few trampolines
to get compiled. The original intention was to have one global list of
trampolines for all modules in the module-linking graph that they could
all share. With the current design of module linking, however, the
intention is for modules to be relatively isolated from one another
which would make achieving this difficult.
In lieu of total sharing (which would be good for the global scope
anyway but we also don't do that right now) this commit implements an
alternative strategy where each module simply compiles its own
trampolines that it itself can reach. This should mean that
module-linking modules behave more similarly to standalone modules in
terms of trampoline duplication. If we ever do global trampoline
deduplication we can likely batch this all together into one, but for
now this should fix the performance issues seen in fuzzing.
Closes#2525
* 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
This bumps target-lexicon and adds support for the AppleAarch64 calling
convention. Specifically for WebAssembly support, we only have to worry
about the new stack slots convention. Stack slots don't need to be at
least 8-bytes, they can be as small as the data type's size. For
instance, if we need stack slots for (i32, i32), they can be located at
offsets (+0, +4). Note that they still need to be properly aligned on
the data type they're containing, though, so if we need stack slots for
(i32, i64), we can't start the i64 slot at the +4 offset (it must start
at the +8 offset).
Added one test that was failing on the Mac M1, as well as other tests
stressing different yet similar situations.
* More use of `anyhow`.
* Change `make_accessible` into `protect_linear_memory` to better demonstrate
what it is used for; this will make the uffd implementation make a little
more sense.
* Remove `create_memory_map` in favor of just creating the `Mmap` instances in
the pooling allocator. This also removes the need for `MAP_NORESERVE` in the
uffd implementation.
* Moar comments.
* Remove `BasePointerIterator` in favor of `impl Iterator`.
* The uffd implementation now only monitors linear memory pages and will only
receive faults on pages that could potentially be accessible and never on a
statically known guard page.
* Stop allocating memory or table pools if the maximum limit of the memory or
table is 0.
