* Remove duplicate `TypeTables` type
This was once needed historically but it is no longer needed.
* Make the internals of `TypeTables` private
Instead of reaching internally for the `wasm_signatures` map an `Index`
implementation now exists to indirect accesses through the type of the
index being accessed. For the component model this table of types will
grow a number of other tables and this'll assist in consuming sites not
having to worry so much about which map they're reaching into.
* Remove the module linking implementation in Wasmtime
This commit removes the experimental implementation of the module
linking WebAssembly proposal from Wasmtime. The module linking is no
longer intended for core WebAssembly but is instead incorporated into
the component model now at this point. This means that very large parts
of Wasmtime's implementation of module linking are no longer applicable
and would change greatly with an implementation of the component model.
The main purpose of this is to remove Wasmtime's reliance on the support
for module-linking in `wasmparser` and tooling crates. With this
reliance removed we can move over to the `component-model` branch of
`wasmparser` and use the updated support for the component model.
Additionally given the trajectory of the component model proposal the
embedding API of Wasmtime will not look like what it looks like today
for WebAssembly. For example the core wasm `Instance` will not change
and instead a `Component` is likely to be added instead.
Some more rationale for this is in #3941, but the basic idea is that I
feel that it's not going to be viable to develop support for the
component model on a non-`main` branch of Wasmtime. Additionaly I don't
think it's viable, for the same reasons as `wasm-tools`, to support the
old module linking proposal and the new component model at the same
time.
This commit takes a moment to not only delete the existing module
linking implementation but some abstractions are also simplified. For
example module serialization is a bit simpler that there's only one
module. Additionally instantiation is much simpler since the only
initializer we have to deal with are imports and nothing else.
Closes#3941
* Fix doc link
* Update comments
* Delete historical interruptable support in Wasmtime
This commit removes the `Config::interruptable` configuration along with
the `InterruptHandle` type from the `wasmtime` crate. The original
support for adding interruption to WebAssembly was added pretty early on
in the history of Wasmtime when there was no other method to prevent an
infinite loop from the host. Nowadays, however, there are alternative
methods for interruption such as fuel or epoch-based interruption.
One of the major downsides of `Config::interruptable` is that even when
it's not enabled it forces an atomic swap to happen when entering
WebAssembly code. This technically could be a non-atomic swap if the
configuration option isn't enabled but that produces even more branch-y
code on entry into WebAssembly which is already something we try to
optimize. Calling into WebAssembly is on the order of a dozens of
nanoseconds at this time and an atomic swap, even uncontended, can add
up to 5ns on some platforms.
The main goal of this PR is to remove this atomic swap on entry into
WebAssembly. This is done by removing the `Config::interruptable` field
entirely, moving all existing consumers to epochs instead which are
suitable for the same purposes. This means that the stack overflow check
is no longer entangled with the interruption check and perhaps one day
we could continue to optimize that further as well.
Some consequences of this change are:
* Epochs are now the only method of remote-thread interruption.
* There are no more Wasmtime traps that produces the `Interrupted` trap
code, although we may wish to move future traps to this so I left it
in place.
* The C API support for interrupt handles was also removed and bindings
for epoch methods were added.
* Function-entry checks for interruption are a tiny bit less efficient
since one check is performed for the stack limit and a second is
performed for the epoch as opposed to the `Config::interruptable`
style of bundling the stack limit and the interrupt check in one. It's
expected though that this is likely to not really be measurable.
* The old `VMInterrupts` structure is renamed to `VMRuntimeLimits`.
* Implement runtime checks for compilation settings
This commit fills out a few FIXME annotations by implementing run-time
checks that when a `Module` is created it has compatible codegen
settings for the current host (as `Module` is proof of "this code can
run"). This is done by implementing new `Engine`-level methods which
validate compiler settings. These settings are validated on
`Module::new` as well as when loading serialized modules.
Settings are split into two categories, one for "shared" top-level
settings and one for ISA-specific settings. Both categories now have
allow-lists hardcoded into `Engine` which indicate the acceptable values
for each setting (if applicable). ISA-specific settings are checked with
the Rust standard library's `std::is_x86_feature_detected!` macro. Other
macros for other platforms are not stable at this time but can be added
here if necessary.

* Fix fall-through logic to actually be correct
* Use a `OnceCell`, not an `AtomicBool`
* Fix some broken tests
* Shrink the size of the anyfunc table in `VMContext`
This commit shrinks the size of the `VMCallerCheckedAnyfunc` table
allocated into a `VMContext` to be the size of the number of "escaped"
functions in a module rather than the number of functions in a module.
Escaped functions include exports, table elements, etc, and are
typically an order of magnitude smaller than the number of functions in
general. This should greatly shrink the `VMContext` for some modules
which while we aren't necessarily having any problems with that today
shouldn't cause any problems in the future.
The original motivation for this was that this came up during the recent
lazy-table-initialization work and while it no longer has a direct
performance benefit since tables aren't initialized at all on
instantiation it should still improve long-running instances
theoretically with smaller `VMContext` allocations as well as better
locality between anyfuncs.

* Remove redundant hash set

* Remove the `ModuleLimits` pooling configuration structure
This commit is an attempt to improve the usability of the pooling
allocator by removing the need to configure a `ModuleLimits` structure.
Internally this structure has limits on all forms of wasm constructs but
this largely bottoms out in the size of an allocation for an instance in
the instance pooling allocator. Maintaining this list of limits can be
cumbersome as modules may get tweaked over time and there's otherwise no
real reason to limit the number of globals in a module since the main
goal is to limit the memory consumption of a `VMContext` which can be
done with a memory allocation limit rather than fine-tuned control over
each maximum and minimum.
The new approach taken in this commit is to remove `ModuleLimits`. Some
fields, such as `tables`, `table_elements` , `memories`, and
`memory_pages` are moved to `InstanceLimits` since they're still
enforced at runtime. A new field `size` is added to `InstanceLimits`
which indicates, in bytes, the maximum size of the `VMContext`
allocation. If the size of a `VMContext` for a module exceeds this value
then instantiation will fail.
This involved adding a few more checks to `{Table, Memory}::new_static`
to ensure that the minimum size is able to fit in the allocation, since
previously modules were validated at compile time of the module that
everything fit and that validation no longer happens (it happens at
runtime).
A consequence of this commit is that Wasmtime will have no built-in way
to reject modules at compile time if they'll fail to be instantiated
within a particular pooling allocator configuration. Instead a module
must attempt instantiation see if a failure happens.

* Update `wasmparser` dependencies
In #3820 we see an issue with the new heuristics that control use of
memfd: it's entirely possible for a reasonable Wasm module produced by a
snapshotting system to have a relatively sparse heap (less than 50%
filled). A system that avoids memfd because of this would have an
undesirable performance reduction on such modules.
Ultimately we should try to implement a hybrid scheme where we support
outlier/leftover initializers, but for now this PR makes the "always
allow dense" limit configurable. This way, embedders that want to ensure
that memfd is used can do so, if they have other knowledge about the
maximum heap size allowed in their system.
(Partially addresses #3820 but let's leave it open to track the hybrid
idea)
* Fix typo
* Move vmoffset field size and field name together
The previous code was quite confusing about what applied to which field.
The new code also makes it easier to move fields around and insert and
delete fields.
* Move builtin_functions before all variable sized fields
This allows the offset to be calculated at compile time
* Add cadd and cmul convenience functions
* Remove comment
* Change fields! syntax as per review
* Add implicit u32::from to fields!
* Update memfd image construction to avoid excessively large images
Previously memfd-based image construction had a hard limit of a 1GB
memory image but this mean that tiny wasm modules could allocate up to
1GB of memory which became a bit excessive especially in terms of memory
usage during fuzzing. To fix this the conversion to a static memory
image has been updated to first do a conversion to paged memory
initialization, which is sparse, followed by a second conversion to
static memory initialization.
The sparse construction for the paged step should make it such that the
upper/lower bounds of the initialization image are easily computed, and
then afterwards this limit can be checked against some heuristics to
determine if we're willing to commit to building up a whole static image
for that module. The heuristics have been tweaked from "must be less
than 1GB" to one of two conditions must be true:
* Either the total memory image size is at most twice the size of the
original paged data itself.
* Otherwise the memory image size must be smaller than a reasonable
threshold, currently 1MB.
We'll likely need to tweak this over time and it's still possible to
cause a lot of extra memory consumption, but for now this should be
enough to appease the fuzzers.
Closes#3815
* Review comments
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.
* Shrink the size of `FuncData`
Before this commit on a 64-bit system the `FuncData` type had a size of
88 bytes and after this commit it has a size of 32 bytes. A `FuncData`
is required for all host functions in a store, including those inserted
from a `Linker` into a store used during linking. This means that
instantiation ends up creating a nontrivial number of these types and
pushing them into the store. Looking at some profiles there were some
surprisingly expensive movements of `FuncData` from the stack to a
vector for moves-by-value generated by Rust. Shrinking this type enables
more efficient code to be generated and additionally means less storage
is needed in a store's function array.
For instantiating the spidermonkey and rustpython modules this improves
instantiation by 10% since they each import a fair number of host
functions and the speedup here is relative to the number of items
imported.
* Use `ptr::copy_nonoverlapping` during initialization
Prevoiusly `ptr::copy` was used for copying imports into place which
translates to `memmove`, but `ptr::copy_nonoverlapping` can be used here
since it's statically known these areas don't overlap. While this
doesn't end up having a performance difference it's something I kept
noticing while looking at the disassembly of `initialize_vmcontext` so I
figured I'd go ahead and implement.
* Indirect shared signature ids in the VMContext
This commit is a small improvement for the instantiation time of modules
by avoiding copying a list of `VMSharedSignatureIndex` entries into each
`VMContext`, instead building one inside of a module and sharing that
amongst all instances. This involves less lookups at instantiation time
and less movement of data during instantiation. The downside is that
type-checks on `call_indirect` now involve an additionally load, but I'm
assuming that these are somewhat pessimized enough as-is that the
runtime impact won't be much there.
For instantiation performance this is a 5-10% win with
rustpyhon/spidermonky instantiation. This should also reduce the size of
each `VMContext` for an instantiation since signatures are no longer
stored inline but shared amongst all instances with one module.
Note that one subtle change here is that the array of
`VMSharedSignatureIndex` was previously indexed by `TypeIndex`, and now
it's indexed by `SignaturedIndex` which is a deduplicated form of
`TypeIndex`. This is done because we already had a list of those lying
around in `Module`, so it was easier to reuse that than to build a
separate array and store it somewhere.
* Reserve space in `Store<T>` with `InstancePre`
This commit updates the instantiation process to reserve space in a
`Store<T>` for the functions that an `InstancePre<T>`, as part of
instantiation, will insert into it. Using an `InstancePre<T>` to
instantiate allows pre-computing the number of host functions that will
be inserted into a store, and by pre-reserving space we can avoid costly
reallocations during instantiation by ensuring the function vector has
enough space to fit everything during the instantiation process.
Overall this makes instantiation of rustpython/spidermonkey about 8%
faster locally.
* Fix tests
* Use checked arithmetic
* Skip memfd creation with precompiled modules
This commit updates the memfd support internally to not actually use a
memfd if a compiled module originally came from disk via the
`wasmtime::Module::deserialize_file` API. In this situation we already
have a file descriptor open and there's no need to copy a module's heap
image to a new file descriptor.
To facilitate a new source of `mmap` the currently-memfd-specific-logic
of creating a heap image is generalized to a new form of
`MemoryInitialization` which is attempted for all modules at
module-compile-time. This means that the serialized artifact to disk
will have the memory image in its entirety waiting for us. Furthermore
the memory image is ensured to be padded and aligned carefully to the
target system's page size, notably meaning that the data section in the
final object file is page-aligned and the size of the data section is
also page aligned.
This means that when a precompiled module is mapped from disk we can
reuse the underlying `File` to mmap all initial memory images. This
means that the offset-within-the-memory-mapped-file can differ for
memfd-vs-not, but that's just another piece of state to track in the
memfd implementation.
In the limit this waters down the term "memfd" for this technique of
quickly initializing memory because we no longer use memfd
unconditionally (only when the backing file isn't available).
This does however open up an avenue in the future to porting this
support to other OSes because while `memfd_create` is Linux-specific
both macOS and Windows support mapping a file with copy-on-write. This
porting isn't done in this PR and is left for a future refactoring.
Closes#3758
* Enable "memfd" support on all unix systems
Cordon off the Linux-specific bits and enable the memfd support to
compile and run on platforms like macOS which have a Linux-like `mmap`.
This only works if a module is mapped from a precompiled module file on
disk, but that's better than not supporting it at all!

* Move function names out of `Module`
This commit moves function names in a module out of the
`wasmtime_environ::Module` type and into separate sections stored in the
final compiled artifact. Spurred on by #3787 to look at module load
times I noticed that a huge amount of time was spent in deserializing
this map. The `spidermonkey.wasm` file, for example, has a 3MB name
section which is a lot of unnecessary data to deserialize at module load
time.
The names of functions are now split out into their own dedicated
section of the compiled artifact and metadata about them is stored in a
more compact format at runtime by avoiding a `BTreeMap` and instead
using a sorted array. Overall this improves deserialize times by up to
80% for modules with large name sections since the name section is no
longer deserialized at load time and it's lazily paged in as names are
actually referenced.
* Fix a typo
* Fix compiled module determinism
Need to not only sort afterwards but also first to ensure the data of
the name section is consistent.
During instance initialization, we build two sorts of arrays eagerly:
- We create an "anyfunc" (a `VMCallerCheckedAnyfunc`) for every function
in an instance.
- We initialize every element of a funcref table with an initializer to
a pointer to one of these anyfuncs.
Most instances will not touch (via call_indirect or table.get) all
funcref table elements. And most anyfuncs will never be referenced,
because most functions are never placed in tables or used with
`ref.func`. Thus, both of these initialization tasks are quite wasteful.
Profiling shows that a significant fraction of the remaining
instance-initialization time after our other recent optimizations is
going into these two tasks.
This PR implements two basic ideas:
- The anyfunc array can be lazily initialized as long as we retain the
information needed to do so. For now, in this PR, we just recreate the
anyfunc whenever a pointer is taken to it, because doing so is fast
enough; in the future we could keep some state to know whether the
anyfunc has been written yet and skip this work if redundant.
This technique allows us to leave the anyfunc array as uninitialized
memory, which can be a significant savings. Filling it with
initialized anyfuncs is very expensive, but even zeroing it is
expensive: e.g. in a large module, it can be >500KB.
- A funcref table can be lazily initialized as long as we retain a link
to its corresponding instance and function index for each element. A
zero in a table element means "uninitialized", and a slowpath does the
initialization.
Funcref tables are a little tricky because funcrefs can be null. We need
to distinguish "element was initially non-null, but user stored explicit
null later" from "element never touched" (ie the lazy init should not
blow away an explicitly stored null). We solve this by stealing the LSB
from every funcref (anyfunc pointer): when the LSB is set, the funcref
is initialized and we don't hit the lazy-init slowpath. We insert the
bit on storing to the table and mask it off after loading.
We do have to set up a precomputed array of `FuncIndex`s for the table
in order for this to work. We do this as part of the module compilation.
This PR also refactors the way that the runtime crate gains access to
information computed during module compilation.

* Consolidate methods of memory initialization
This commit consolidates the few locations that we have which are
performing memory initialization. Namely the uffd logic for creating
paged memory as well as the memfd logic for creating a memory image now
share an implementation to avoid duplicating bounds-checks or other
validation conditions. The main purpose of this commit is to fix a
fuzz-bug where a multiplication overflowed. The overflow itself was
benign but it seemed better to fix the overflow in only one place
instead of multiple.
The overflow in question is specifically when an initializer is checked
to be statically out-of-bounds and multiplies a memory's minimum size by
the wasm page size, returning the result as a `u64`. For
memory64-memories of size `1 << 48` this multiplication will overflow.
This was actually a preexisting bug with the `try_paged_init` function
which was copied for memfd, but cropped up here since memfd is used more
often than paged initialization. The fix here is to skip validation of
the `end` index if the size of memory is `1 << 64` since if the `end`
index can be represented as a `u64` then it's in-bounds. This is
somewhat of an esoteric case, though, since a memory of minimum size `1
<< 64` can't ever exist (we can't even ask the os for that much memory,
and even if we could it would fail).
* Fix memfd test
* Fix some tests
* Remove InitMemory enum
* Add an `is_segmented` helper method
* More clear variable name
* Make arguments to `init_memory` more descriptive
As first suggested by Jan on the Zulip here [1], a cheap and effective
way to obtain copy-on-write semantics of a "backing image" for a Wasm
memory is to mmap a file with `MAP_PRIVATE`. The `memfd` mechanism
provided by the Linux kernel allows us to create anonymous,
in-memory-only files that we can use for this mapping, so we can
construct the image contents on-the-fly then effectively create a CoW
overlay. Furthermore, and importantly, `madvise(MADV_DONTNEED, ...)`
will discard the CoW overlay, returning the mapping to its original
state.
By itself this is almost enough for a very fast
instantiation-termination loop of the same image over and over,
without changing the address space mapping at all (which is
expensive). The only missing bit is how to implement
heap *growth*. But here memfds can help us again: if we create another
anonymous file and map it where the extended parts of the heap would
go, we can take advantage of the fact that a `mmap()` mapping can
be *larger than the file itself*, with accesses beyond the end
generating a `SIGBUS`, and the fact that we can cheaply resize the
file with `ftruncate`, even after a mapping exists. So we can map the
"heap extension" file once with the maximum memory-slot size and grow
the memfd itself as `memory.grow` operations occur.
The above CoW technique and heap-growth technique together allow us a
fastpath of `madvise()` and `ftruncate()` only when we re-instantiate
the same module over and over, as long as we can reuse the same
slot. This fastpath avoids all whole-process address-space locks in
the Linux kernel, which should mean it is highly scalable. It also
avoids the cost of copying data on read, as the `uffd` heap backend
does when servicing pagefaults; the kernel's own optimized CoW
logic (same as used by all file mmaps) is used instead.

* Don't copy `VMBuiltinFunctionsArray` into each `VMContext`
This is another PR along the lines of "let's squeeze all possible
performance we can out of instantiation". Before this PR we would copy,
by value, the contents of `VMBuiltinFunctionsArray` into each
`VMContext` allocated. This array of function pointers is modestly-sized
but growing over time as we add various intrinsics. Additionally it's
the exact same for all `VMContext` allocations.
This PR attempts to speed up instantiation slightly by instead storing
an indirection to the function array. This means that calling a builtin
intrinsic is a tad bit slower since it requires two loads instead of one
(one to get the base pointer, another to get the actual address).
Otherwise though `VMContext` initialization is now simply setting one
pointer instead of doing a `memcpy` from one location to another.
With some macro-magic this commit also replaces the previous
implementation with one that's more `const`-friendly which also gets us
compile-time type-checks of libcalls as well as compile-time
verification that all libcalls are defined.
Overall, as with #3739, the win is very modest here. Locally I measured
a speedup from 1.9us to 1.7us taken to instantiate an empty module with
one function. While small at these scales it's still a 10% improvement!
* Review comments
This PR introduces a new way of performing cooperative timeslicing that
is intended to replace the "fuel" mechanism. The tradeoff is that this
mechanism interrupts with less precision: not at deterministic points
where fuel runs out, but rather when the Engine enters a new epoch. The
generated code instrumentation is substantially faster, however, because
it does not need to do as much work as when tracking fuel; it only loads
the global "epoch counter" and does a compare-and-branch at backedges
and function prologues.
This change has been measured as ~twice as fast as fuel-based
timeslicing for some workloads, especially control-flow-intensive
workloads such as the SpiderMonkey JS interpreter on Wasm/WASI.
The intended interface is that the embedder of the `Engine` performs an
`engine.increment_epoch()` call periodically, e.g. once per millisecond.
An async invocation of a Wasm guest on a `Store` can specify a number of
epoch-ticks that are allowed before an async yield back to the
executor's event loop. (The initial amount and automatic "refills" are
configured on the `Store`, just as for fuel.) This call does only
signal-safe work (it increments an `AtomicU64`) so could be invoked from
a periodic signal, or from a thread that wakes up once per period.
* Add a compilation section to disable address maps
This commit adds a new `Config::generate_address_map` compilation
setting which is used to disable emission of the `.wasmtime.addrmap`
section of compiled artifacts. This section is currently around the size
of the entire `.text` section itself unfortunately and for size reasons
may wish to be omitted. Functionality-wise all that is lost is knowing
the precise wasm module offset address of a faulting instruction or in a
backtrace of instructions. This also means that if the module has DWARF
debugging information available with it Wasmtime isn't able to produce a
filename and line number in the backtrace.
This option remains enabled by default. This option may not be needed in
the future with #3547 perhaps, but in the meantime it seems reasonable
enough to support a configuration mode where the section is entirely
omitted if the smallest module possible is desired.

* Do less work in compilation for address maps
But only when disabled
Co-authored-by: Nick Fitzgerald <fitzgen@gmail.com>
This commit fixes a panic which can happen on a module with an invalid
name section where one of the functions named has the index `u32::MAX`.
Previously Wasmtime would create a new `FuncIndex` with the indices
found in the name section but the sentinel `u32::MAX` causes a panic.
Cranelift otherwise limits the number of functions through `wasmparser`
which has a hard limit (lower than `u32::MAX`) so this commit applies a
fix of only recording function names for function indices that are
actually present in the module.
* Update the spec reference testsuite submodule
This commit brings in recent updates to the spec test suite. Most of the
changes here were already fixed in `wasmparser` with some tweaks to
esoteric modules, but Wasmtime also gets a bug fix where where import
matching for the size of tables/memories is based on the current runtime
size of the table/memory rather than the original type of the
table/memory. This means that during type matching the actual value is
consulted for its size rather than using the minimum size listed in its
type.
* Fix now-missing directories in build script
We _must not_ trigger a GC when moving refs from host code into
Wasm (e.g. returned from a host function or passed as arguments to a Wasm
function). After insertion into the table, this reference is no longer
rooted. If multiple references are being sent from the host into Wasm and we
allowed GCs during insertion, then the following events could happen:
* Reference A is inserted into the activations table. This does not trigger a
GC, but does fill the table to capacity.
* The caller's reference to A is removed. Now the only reference to A is from
the activations table.
* Reference B is inserted into the activations table. Because the table is at
capacity, a GC is triggered.
* A is reclaimed because the only reference keeping it alive was the activation
table's reference (it isn't inside any Wasm frames on the stack yet, so stack
scanning and stack maps don't increment its reference count).
* We transfer control to Wasm, giving it A and B. Wasm uses A. That's a use
after free.
To prevent uses after free, we cannot GC when moving refs into the
`VMExternRefActivationsTable` because we are passing them from the host to Wasm.
On the other hand, when we are *cloning* -- as opposed to moving -- refs from
the host to Wasm, then it is fine to GC while inserting into the activations
table, because the original referent that we are cloning from is still alive and
rooting the ref.
* 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.
* 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.
* 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.
* Fix determinism of compiled modules
Currently wasmtime's compilation artifacts are not deterministic due to
the usage of `HashMap` during serialization which has randomized order
of its elements. This commit fixes that by switching to a sorted
`BTreeMap` for various maps. A test is also added to ensure determinism.
If in the future the performance of `BTreeMap` is not as good as
`HashMap` for some of these cases we can implement a fancier
`serialize_with`-style solution where we sort keys during serialization,
but only during serialization and otherwise use a `HashMap`.
* fix lightbeam
This was historically defined in `wasmtime-environ` but it's only used
in `wasmtime-cranelift`, so this commit moves the definition to the
`debug` module where it's primarily used.
* Implement a setting for reserved dynamic memory growth
Dynamic memories aren't really that heavily used in Wasmtime right now
because for most 32-bit memories they're classified as "static" which
means they reserve 4gb of address space and never move. Growth of a
static memory is simply making pages accessible, so it's quite fast.
With the memory64 feature, however, this is no longer true since all
memory64 memories are classified as "dynamic" at this time. Previous to
this commit growth of a dynamic memory unconditionally moved the entire
linear memory in the host's address space, always resulting in a new
`Mmap` allocation. This behavior is causing fuzzers to time out when
working with 64-bit memories because incrementally growing a memory by 1
page at a time can incur a quadratic time complexity as bytes are
constantly moved.
This commit implements a scheme where there is now a tunable setting for
memory to be reserved at the end of a dynamic memory to grow into. This
means that dynamic memory growth is ideally amortized as most calls to
`memory.grow` will be able to grow into the pre-reserved space. Some
calls, though, will still need to copy the memory around.
This helps enable a commented out test for 64-bit memories now that it's
fast enough to run in debug mode. This is because the growth of memory
in the test no longer needs to copy 4gb of zeros.
* Test fixes & review comments
* More comments
* Disable default features of `gimli`
For cranelift-less builds this avoids pulling in extra dependencies into
`gimli` that we don't need, improving build times slightly.
* Enable read features where necessary
* 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
The main purpose for doing this is that this is a large piece of
functionality used by Wasmtime which is entirely independent of
Cranelift. Eventually Wasmtime wants to be able to compile without
Cranelift, but it can't also depend on `cranelift-wasm` in that
situation for module translation which means that something needs to
happen. One option is to refactor what's in `cranelift-wasm` into a
separate crate (since all these pieces don't actually depend on
`cranelift-codegen`), but I personally chose to not do this because:
* The `ModuleEnvironment` trait, AFAIK, only has a primary user of
Wasmtime. The Spidermonkey integration, for example, does not use this.
* This is an extra layer of abstraction between Wasmtime and the
compilation phase which was a bit of a pain to maintain. It couldn't
be Wasmtime-specific as it was part of Cranelift but at the same time
it had lots of Wasmtime-centric functionality (such as module
linking).
* Updating the "dummy" implementation has become pretty onerous over
time as frequent additions are made and the "dummy" implementation was
never actually used anywhere. This ended up feeling like effectively
busy-work to update this.
For these reasons I've opted to to move the meat of `cranelift-wasm`
used by `wasmtime-environ` directly into `wasmtime-environ`. This means
that the only real meat that Wasmtime uses from `cranelift-wasm` is the
function-translation bits in the `wasmtime-cranelift` crate.
The changes in `wasmtime-environ` are largely to inline module parsing
together so it's a bit easier to follow instead of trying to connect
the dots between lots of various function calls.
* 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
