* Consume fuel during function execution
This commit adds codegen infrastructure necessary to instrument wasm
code to consume fuel as it executes. Currently nothing is really done
with the fuel, but that'll come in later commits.
The focus of this commit is to implement the codegen infrastructure
necessary to consume fuel and account for fuel consumed correctly.
* Periodically check remaining fuel in wasm JIT code
This commit enables wasm code to periodically check to see if fuel has
run out. When fuel runs out an intrinsic is called which can do what it
needs to do in the result of fuel running out. For now a trap is thrown
to have at least some semantics in synchronous stores, but another
planned use for this feature is for asynchronous stores to periodically
yield back to the host based on fuel running out.
Checks for remaining fuel happen in the same locations as interrupt
checks, which is to say the start of the function as well as loop
headers.
* Improve codegen by caching `*const VMInterrupts`
The location of the shared interrupt value and fuel value is through a
double-indirection on the vmctx (load through the vmctx and then load
through that pointer). The second pointer in this chain, however, never
changes, so we can alter codegen to account for this and remove some
extraneous load instructions and hopefully reduce some register
pressure even maybe.
* Add tests fuel can abort infinite loops
* More fuzzing with fuel
Use fuel to time out modules in addition to time, using fuzz input to
figure out which.
* Update docs on trapping instructions
* Fix doc links
* Fix a fuzz test
* Change setting fuel to adding fuel
* Fix a doc link
* Squelch some rustdoc warnings
This commit is intended to do almost everything necessary for processing
the alias section of module linking. Most of this is internal
refactoring, the highlights being:
* Type contents are now stored separately from a `wasmtime_env::Module`.
Given that modules can freely alias types and have them used all over
the place, it seemed best to have one canonical location to type
storage which everywhere else points to (with indices). A new
`TypeTables` structure is produced during compilation which is shared
amongst all member modules in a wasm blob.
* Instantiation is heavily refactored to account for module linking. The
main gotcha here is that imports are now listed as "initializers". We
have a sort of pseudo-bytecode-interpreter which interprets the
initialization of a module. This is more complicated than just
matching imports at this point because in the module linking proposal
the module, alias, import, and instance sections may all be
interleaved. This means that imports aren't guaranteed to show up at
the beginning of the address space for modules/instances.
Otherwise most of the changes here largely fell out from these two
design points. Aliases are recorded as initializers in this scheme.
Copying around type information and/or just knowing type information
during compilation is also pretty easy since everything is just a
pointer into a `TypeTables` and we don't have to actually copy any types
themselves. Lots of various refactorings were necessary to accomodate
these changes.
Tests are hoped to cover a breadth of functionality here, but not
necessarily a depth. There's still one more piece of the module linking
proposal missing which is exporting instances/modules, which will come
in a future PR.
It's also worth nothing that there's one large TODO which isn't
implemented in this change that I plan on opening an issue for.
With module linking when a set of modules comes back from compilation
each modules has all the trampolines for the entire set of modules. This
is quite a lot of duplicate trampolines across module-linking modules.
We'll want to refactor this at some point to instead have only one set
of trampolines per set of module linking modules and have them shared
from there. I figured it was best to separate out this change, however,
since it's purely related to resource usage, and doesn't impact
non-module-linking modules at all.

This was added long ago at this point to assist with caching, but
caching has moved to a different level such that this wonky second level
of a `Module` isn't necessary. This commit removes the `ModuleLocal`
type to simplify accessors and generally make it easier to work with.
`funcref`s are implemented as `NonNull<VMCallerCheckedAnyfunc>`.
This should be more efficient than using a `VMExternRef` that points at a
`VMCallerCheckedAnyfunc` because it gets rid of an indirection, dynamic
allocation, and some reference counting.
Note that the null function reference is *NOT* a null pointer; it is a
`VMCallerCheckedAnyfunc` that has a null `func_ptr` member.
Part of #929
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).

Examination of Deferred Reference Counting and Cycle Detection* by Quinane:

cc #929Fixes#1804
`VMExternRef` is a reference-counted box for any kind of data that is
external and opaque to running Wasm. Sometimes it might hold a Wasmtime
thing, other times it might hold something from a Wasmtime embedder and is
opaque even to us. It is morally equivalent to `Rc<dyn Any>` in Rust, but
additionally always fits in a pointer-sized word. `VMExternRef` is
non-nullable, but `Option<VMExternRef>` is a null pointer.
The one part of `VMExternRef` that can't ever be opaque to us is the
reference count. Even when we don't know what's inside an `VMExternRef`, we
need to be able to manipulate its reference count as we add and remove
references to it. And we need to do this from compiled Wasm code, so it must
be `repr(C)`!
`VMExternRef` itself is just a pointer to an `VMExternData`, which holds the
opaque, boxed value, its reference count, and its vtable pointer.
The `VMExternData` struct is *preceded* by the dynamically-sized value boxed
up and referenced by one or more `VMExternRef`s:
```ignore
,-------------------------------------------------------.
| |
V |
+----------------------------+-----------+-----------+ |
| dynamically-sized value... | ref_count | value_ptr |---'
+----------------------------+-----------+-----------+
| VMExternData |
+-----------------------+
^
+-------------+ |
| VMExternRef |-------------------+
+-------------+ |
|
+-------------+ |
| VMExternRef |-------------------+
+-------------+ |
|
... ===
|
+-------------+ |
| VMExternRef |-------------------'
+-------------+
```
The `value_ptr` member always points backwards to the start of the
dynamically-sized value (which is also the start of the heap allocation for
this value-and-`VMExternData` pair). Because it is a `dyn` pointer, it is
fat, and also points to the value's `Any` vtable.
The boxed value and the `VMExternRef` footer are held a single heap
allocation. The layout described above is used to make satisfying the
value's alignment easy: we just need to ensure that the heap allocation used
to hold everything satisfies its alignment. It also ensures that we don't
need a ton of excess padding between the `VMExternData` and the value for
values with large alignment.
* Implement interrupting wasm code, reimplement stack overflow
This commit is a relatively large change for wasmtime with two main
goals:
* Primarily this enables interrupting executing wasm code with a trap,
preventing infinite loops in wasm code. Note that resumption of the
wasm code is not a goal of this commit.
* Additionally this commit reimplements how we handle stack overflow to
ensure that host functions always have a reasonable amount of stack to
run on. This fixes an issue where we might longjmp out of a host
function, skipping destructors.
Lots of various odds and ends end up falling out in this commit once the
two goals above were implemented. The strategy for implementing this was
also lifted from Spidermonkey and existing functionality inside of
Cranelift. I've tried to write up thorough documentation of how this all
works in `crates/environ/src/cranelift.rs` where gnarly-ish bits are.
A brief summary of how this works is that each function and each loop
header now checks to see if they're interrupted. Interrupts and the
stack overflow check are actually folded into one now, where function
headers check to see if they've run out of stack and the sentinel value
used to indicate an interrupt, checked in loop headers, tricks functions
into thinking they're out of stack. An interrupt is basically just
writing a value to a location which is read by JIT code.
When interrupts are delivered and what triggers them has been left up to
embedders of the `wasmtime` crate. The `wasmtime::Store` type has a
method to acquire an `InterruptHandle`, where `InterruptHandle` is a
`Send` and `Sync` type which can travel to other threads (or perhaps
even a signal handler) to get notified from. It's intended that this
provides a good degree of flexibility when interrupting wasm code. Note
though that this does have a large caveat where interrupts don't work
when you're interrupting host code, so if you've got a host import
blocking for a long time an interrupt won't actually be received until
the wasm starts running again.
Some fallout included from this change is:
* Unix signal handlers are no longer registered with `SA_ONSTACK`.
Instead they run on the native stack the thread was already using.
This is possible since stack overflow isn't handled by hitting the
guard page, but rather it's explicitly checked for in wasm now. Native
stack overflow will continue to abort the process as usual.
* Unix sigaltstack management is now no longer necessary since we don't
use it any more.
* Windows no longer has any need to reset guard pages since we no longer
try to recover from faults on guard pages.
* On all targets probestack intrinsics are disabled since we use a
different mechanism for catching stack overflow.
* The C API has been updated with interrupts handles. An example has
also been added which shows off how to interrupt a module.

* Improve robustness of cache loading/storing
Today wasmtime incorrectly loads compiled compiled modules from the
global cache when toggling settings such as optimizations. For example
if you execute `wasmtime foo.wasm` that will cache globally an
unoptimized version of the wasm module. If you then execute `wasmtime -O
foo.wasm` it would then reload the unoptimized version from cache, not
realizing the compilation settings were different, and use that instead.
This can lead to very surprising behavior naturally!
This commit updates how the cache is managed in an attempt to make it
much more robust against these sorts of issues. This takes a leaf out of
rustc's playbook and models the cache with a function that looks like:
fn load<T: Hash>(
&self,
data: T,
compute: fn(T) -> CacheEntry,
) -> CacheEntry;
The goal here is that it guarantees that all the `data` necessary to
`compute` the result of the cache entry is hashable and stored into the
hash key entry. This was previously open-coded and manually managed
where items were hashed explicitly, but this construction guarantees
that everything reasonable `compute` could use to compile the module is
stored in `data`, which is itself hashable.
This refactoring then resulted in a few workarounds and a few fixes,
including the original issue:
* The `Module` type was split into `Module` and `ModuleLocal` where only
the latter is hashed. The previous hash function for a `Module` left
out items like the `start_func` and didn't hash items like the imports
of the module. Omitting the `start_func` was fine since compilation
didn't actually use it, but omitting imports seemed uncomfortable
because while compilation didn't use the import values it did use the
*number* of imports, which seems like it should then be put into the
cache key. The `ModuleLocal` type now derives `Hash` to guarantee that
all of its contents affect the hash key.
* The `ModuleTranslationState` from `cranelift-wasm` doesn't implement
`Hash` which means that we have a manual wrapper to work around that.
This will be fixed with an upstream implementation, since this state
affects the generated wasm code. Currently this is just a map of
signatures, which is present in `Module` anyway, so we should be good
for the time being.
* Hashing `dyn TargetIsa` was also added, where previously it was not
fully hashed. Previously only the target name was used as part of the
cache key, but crucially the flags of compilation were omitted (for
example the optimization flags). Unfortunately the trait object itself
is not hashable so we still have to manually write a wrapper to hash
it, but we likely want to add upstream some utilities to hash isa
objects into cranelift itself. For now though we can continue to add
hashed fields as necessary.
Overall the goal here was to use the compiler to expose what we're not
hashing, and then make sure we organize data and write the right code to
ensure everything is hashed, and nothing more.

* Migrate back to `std::` stylistically
This commit moves away from idioms such as `alloc::` and `core::` as
imports of standard data structures and types. Instead it migrates all
crates to uniformly use `std::` for importing standard data structures
and types. This also removes the `std` and `core` features from all
crates to and removes any conditional checking for `feature = "std"`
All of this support was previously added in #407 in an effort to make
wasmtime/cranelift "`no_std` compatible". Unfortunately though this
change comes at a cost:
* The usage of `alloc` and `core` isn't idiomatic. Especially trying to
dual between types like `HashMap` from `std` as well as from
`hashbrown` causes imports to be surprising in some cases.
* Unfortunately there was no CI check that crates were `no_std`, so none
of them actually were. Many crates still imported from `std` or
depended on crates that used `std`.
It's important to note, however, that **this does not mean that wasmtime
will not run in embedded environments**. The style of the code today and
idioms aren't ready in Rust to support this degree of multiplexing and
makes it somewhat difficult to keep up with the style of `wasmtime`.
Instead it's intended that embedded runtime support will be added as
necessary. Currently only `std` is necessary to build `wasmtime`, and
platforms that natively need to execute `wasmtime` will need to use a
Rust target that supports `std`. Note though that not all of `std` needs
to be supported, but instead much of it could be configured off to
return errors, and `wasmtime` would be configured to gracefully handle
errors.
The goal of this PR is to move `wasmtime` back to idiomatic usage of
features/`std`/imports/etc and help development in the short-term.
Long-term when platform concerns arise (if any) they can be addressed by
moving back to `no_std` crates (but fixing the issues mentioned above)
or ensuring that the target in Rust has `std` available.
