* Support parsing the text format in `wasmtime` crate
This commit adds support to the `wasmtime::Module` type to parse the
text format. This is often quite convenient to support in testing or
tinkering with the runtime. Additionally the `wat` parser is pretty
lightweight and easy to add to builds, so it's relatively easy for us to
support as well!
The exact manner that this is now supported comes with a few updates to
the existing API:
* A new optional feature of the `wasmtime` crate, `wat`, has been added.
This is enabled by default.
* The `Module::new` API now takes `impl AsRef<[u8]>` instead of just
`&[u8]`, and when the `wat` feature is enabled it will attempt to
interpret it either as a wasm binary or as the text format. Note that
this check is quite cheap since you just check the first byte.
* A `Module::from_file` API was added as a convenience to parse a file
from disk, allowing error messages for `*.wat` files on disk to be a
bit nicer.
* APIs like `Module::new_unchecked` and `Module::validate` remain
unchanged, they require the binary format to be called.
The intention here is to make this as convenient as possible for new
developers of the `wasmtime` crate. By changing the default behavior
though this has ramifications such as, for example, supporting the text
format implicitly through the C API now.
* Handle review comments
* Update more tests to avoid usage of `wat` crate
* Go back to unchecked for now in wasm_module_new
Looks like C# tests rely on this?
* Don't require `Store` in `Instance` constructor
This can be inferred from the `Module` argument. Additionally add a
`store` accessor to an `Instance` in case it's needed to instantiate
another `Module`.
cc #708
* Update more constructors
* Fix a doctest
* Don't ignore store in `wasm_instance_new`
* Run rustfmt
* Remove `HostRef` from the `wasmtime` public API
This commit removes all remaining usages of `HostRef` in the public API
of the `wasmtime` crate. This involved a number of API decisions such
as:
* None of `Func`, `Global`, `Table`, or `Memory` are wrapped in `HostRef`
* All of `Func`, `Global`, `Table`, and `Memory` implement `Clone` now.
* Methods called `type` are renamed to `ty` to avoid typing `r#type`.
* Methods requiring mutability for external items now no longer require
mutability. The mutable reference here is sort of a lie anyway since
the internals are aliased by the underlying module anyway. This
affects:
* `Table::set`
* `Table::grow`
* `Memory::grow`
* `Instance::set_signal_handler`
* The `Val::FuncRef` type is now no longer automatically coerced to
`AnyRef`. This is technically a breaking change which is pretty bad,
but I'm hoping that we can live with this interim state while we sort
out the `AnyRef` story in general.
* The implementation of the C API was refactored and updated in a few
locations to account for these changes:
* Accessing the exports of an instance are now cached to ensure we
always hand out the same `HostRef` values.
* `wasm_*_t` for external values no longer have internal cache,
instead they all wrap `wasm_external_t` and have an unchecked
accessor for the underlying variant (since the type is proof that
it's there). This makes casting back and forth much more trivial.
This is all related to #708 and while there's still more work to be done
in terms of documentation, this is the major bulk of the rest of the
implementation work on #708 I believe.
* More API updates
* Run rustfmt
* Fix a doc test
* More test updates
This commit continues previous work and also #708 by removing the need
to use `HostRef<Module>` in the API of the `wasmtime` crate. The API
changes performed here are:
* The `Module` type is now itself internally reference counted.
* The `Module::store` function now returns the `Store` that was used to
create a `Module`
* Documentation for `Module` and its methods have been expanded.
* Remove the need for `HostRef<Module>`
This commit continues previous work and also #708 by removing the need
to use `HostRef<Module>` in the API of the `wasmtime` crate. The API
changes performed here are:
* The `Module` type is now itself internally reference counted.
* The `Module::store` function now returns the `Store` that was used to
create a `Module`
* Documentation for `Module` and its methods have been expanded.
* Fix compliation of test programs harness
* Fix the python extension
* Update `CodeMemory` to be `Send + Sync`
This commit updates the `CodeMemory` type in wasmtime to be both `Send`
and `Sync` by updating the implementation of `Mmap` to not store raw
pointers. This avoids the need for an `unsafe impl` and leaves the
unsafety as it is currently.
* Fix a typo
* Remove the need for `HostRef<Store>`
This commit goes through the public API of the `wasmtime` crate and
removes the need for `HostRef<Store>`, as discussed in #708. This commit
is accompanied with a few changes:
* The `Store` type now also implements `Default`, creating a new
`Engine` with default settings and returning that.
* The `Store` type now implements `Clone`, and is documented as being a
"cheap clone" aka being reference counted. As before there is no
supported way to create a deep clone of a `Store`.
* All APIs take/return `&Store` or `Store` instead of `HostRef<Store>`,
and `HostRef<T>` is left as purely a detail of the C API.
* The `global_exports` function is tagged as `#[doc(hidden)]` for now
while we await its removal.
* The `Store` type is not yet `Send` nor `Sync` due to the usage of
`global_exports`, but it is intended to become so eventually.
* Touch up comments on some examples
* Run rustfmt
This commit removes the need to use `HostRef<Engine>` in the Rust API.
Usage is retained in the C API in one location, but otherwise `Engine`
can always be used directly.
This is the first step of progress on #708 for the `Engine` type.
Changes here include:
* `Engine` is now `Clone`, and is documented as being cheap. It's not
intended that cloning an engine creates a deep copy.
* `Engine` is now both `Send` and `Sync`, and asserted to be so.
* Usage of `Engine` in APIs no longer requires or uses `HostRef`.
Several of the examples wrap the Instance in a HostRef, only to
immediately borrow it again to get the exports,and then never touch it
again. Simplify this by owning the Instance directly.
* Rename the `wasmtime_api` library to match the containing `wasmtime` crate
Commit d9ca508f80 renamed the
`wasmtime-api` crate to `wasmtime`, but left the name of the library it
contains as `wasmtime_api`.
It's fairly unusual for a crate to contain a library with a different
name, and it results in rather confusing error messages for a user; if
you list `wasmtime = "0.7"` in `Cargo.toml`, you can't `use
wasmtime::*`, you have to `use wasmtime_api::*;`.
Rename the `wasmtime_api` library to `wasmtime`.
* Stop renaming wasmtime to api on imports
Various users renamed the crate formerly known as wasmtime_api to api,
and then used api:: prefixes everywhere; change those all to wasmtime::
and drop the renaming.
* Tidy up the `hello` example for `wasmtime`
* Remove the `*.wat` and `*.wasm` files and instead just inline the
`*.wat` into the example.
* Touch up comments so they're not just a repeat of the `println!`
below.
* Move `*.wat` for `memory` example inline
No need to handle auxiliary files with the ability to parse it inline!
* Move `multi.wasm` inline into `multi.rs` example
* Move `*.wasm` for gcd example inline
* Move `*.wat` inline with `import_calling_export` test
* Remove checked in `lightbeam/test.wasm`
Instead move the `*.wat` into the source and parse it into wasm there.
* Run rustfmt
