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.
No point in resorting to LEB128 encoding for such constants,
using the native `u32` is faster and more compact.
Adds `write_u32` method to facilitate this.
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 commit extracts the two implementations of `Compiler` into two
separate crates, `wasmtime-cranelfit` and `wasmtime-lightbeam`. The
`wasmtime-jit` crate then depends on these two and instantiates them
appropriately. The goal here is to start reducing the weight of the
`wasmtime-environ` crate, which currently serves as a common set of
types between all `wasmtime-*` crates. Long-term I'd like to remove the
dependency on Cranelift from `wasmtime-environ`, but that's going to
take a lot more work.
In the meantime I figure it's a good way to get started by separating
out the lightbeam/cranelift function compilers from the
`wasmtime-environ` crate. We can continue to iterate on moving things
out in the future, too.

DEPRECATION NOTICE: the Cranelift developer team intends to stop maintaining
the `cranelift-faerie` crate and remove it from the `wasmtime` git repository
on or after August 3, 2020. We recommend users use its successor, the
`cranelift-object` crate.
This upgrade pulls in one memory-allocation reduction improvement
(bytecodealliance/regalloc.rs#95). There should be no change in behavior
as a result of this.
When storing an argument to a stack location for consumption by a
callee, or storing a return value to an on-stack return slot for
consumption by the caller, the ABI implementation was properly extending
the value but was then performing a store with only the original width.
This fixes the issue by always performing a 64-bit store of the extended
value.
Issue reported by @uweigand (thanks!).
We have observed that the ABI implementations for AArch64 and x64 are
very similar; in fact, x64's implementation started as a modified copy
of AArch64's implementation. This is an artifact of both a similar ABI
(both machines pass args and return values in registers first, then the
stack, and both machines give considerable freedom with stack-frame
layout) and a too-low-level ABI abstraction in the existing design. For
machines that fit the mainstream or most common ABI-design idioms, we
should be able to do much better.
This commit factors AArch64 into machine-specific and
machine-independent parts, but does not yet modify x64; that will come
next.
This should be completely neutral with respect to compile time and
generated code performance.
Although the string description for `TableOutOfBounds` isn't quite
matching what this error case is, it's a bit more descriptive than
`HeapOutOfBounds` anyway.
We've enabled bulk memory and reference types by default now which means
that wasmtime in its default settings no longer passes the spec test
suite (due to changes in error messages in initialization), so when
we're running the spec test fuzzer be sure to disable reference types
and bulk memory since that's required to pass.
The Wasm translation handles unreachable code sections
specially, skipping ops until the end of a block and a control-flow
merger at which code becomes reachable again. Unfortunately, while the
ordinary else-op handler properly sets up the value stack for the
else-branch with the parameters to the if/else, the unreachable-case
else-op handler did not. This resulted in a bad translation and CLIF
type error despite valid Wasm.
