In order to register traps for `load_splat`, several instruction formats need knowledge of `SourceLoc`s; however, since the x64 backend does not correctly and completely register traps for `RegMem::Mem` variants I opened https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/issues/2290 to discuss and resolve this issue. In the meantime, the current behavior (i.e. remaining largely unaware of `SourceLoc`s) is retained.
A new associated type Info is added to MachInstEmit, which is the
immutable counterpart to State. It can't easily be constructed from an
ABICallee, since it would require adding an associated type to the
latter, and making so leaks the associated type in a lot of places in
the code base and makes the code harder to read. Instead, the EmitInfo
state can simply be passed to the `Vcode::emit` function directly.
This approach is not the best but avoids an extra instruction; perhaps at some point, as mentioned in https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/pull/2248, we will add the extra instruction or refactor things in such a way that this `Inst` variant is unnecessary.
In particular:
- try to optimize the integer emission into a 32-bit emission, when the
high bits are all zero, and stop relying on the caller of `imm_r` to
ensure this.
- rename `Inst::imm_r`/`Inst::Imm_R` to `Inst::imm`/`Inst::Imm`.
- generate a sign-extending mov 32-bit immediate to 64-bits, whenever
possible.
- fix a few places where the previous commit did introduce the
generation of zero-constants with xor, when calling `put_input_to_reg`,
thus clobbering the flags before they were read.
It does this by providing an implementation of the CLIF instructions `AtomicRmw`, `AtomicCas`,
`AtomicLoad`, `AtomicStore` and `Fence`.
The translation is straightforward. `AtomicCas` is translated into x64 `cmpxchg`, `AtomicLoad`
becomes a normal load because x64-TSO provides adequate sequencing, `AtomicStore` becomes a
normal store followed by `mfence`, and `Fence` becomes `mfence`. `AtomicRmw` is the only
complex case: it becomes a normal load, followed by a loop which computes an updated value,
tries to `cmpxchg` it back to memory, and repeats if necessary.
This is a minimum-effort initial implementation. `AtomicRmw` could be implemented more
efficiently using LOCK-prefixed integer read-modify-write instructions in the case where the old
value in memory is not required. Subsequent work could add that, if required.
The x64 emitter has been updated to emit the new instructions, obviously. The `LegacyPrefix`
mechanism has been revised to handle multiple prefix bytes, not just one, since it is now
sometimes necessary to emit both 0x66 (Operand Size Override) and F0 (Lock).
In the aarch64 implementation of atomics, there has been some minor renaming for the sake of
clarity, and for consistency with this x64 implementation.
This change primarily adds the ability to lower packed `[move|load|store]` instructions (the vector types were previously unimplemented), but with the addition of the utility `Inst::[move|load|store]` functions it became possible to remove duplicated code (e.g. `stack_load` and `stack_store`) and use these utility functions elsewhere (though not exhaustively).
This change is a pure refactoring--no change to functionality. It removes `use crate::ir::types::*` imports and uses instead `types::I32`, e.g., throughout the x64 code. Though it increases code verbosity, this change makes it more clear where the type identifiers come from (they are generated by `cranelif-codegen-meta` so without a prefix it is difficult to find their origin), avoids IDE confusion (e.g. CLion flags the un-prefixed identifiers as errors), and avoids importing unwanted identifiers into the namespace.
The jump table offset that's loaded out of the jump table could be
signed (if it's an offset to before the jump table itself), so we should
use a signed extension there, not an unsigned extension.
Using an input register that doesn't belong to the ABCD family (al,
etc.) as the source of movsx/movzx requires a redundant REX prefix, that
was not emitted.
