* Implement `canon lower` of a `canon lift` function in the same component
This commit implements the "degenerate" logic for implementing a
function within a component that is lifted and then immediately lowered
again. In this situation the lowered function will immediately generate
a trap and doesn't need to implement anything else.
The implementation in this commit is somewhat heavyweight but I think is
probably justified moreso in future additions to the component model
rather than what exactly is here right now. It's not expected that this
"always trap" functionality will really be used all that often since it
would generally mean a buggy component, but the functionality plumbed
through here is hopefully going to be useful for implementing
component-to-component adapter trampolines.
Specifically this commit implements a strategy where the `canon.lower`'d
function is generated by Cranelift and simply has a single trap
instruction when called, doing nothing else. The main complexity comes
from juggling around all the data associated with these functions,
primarily plumbing through the traps into the `ModuleRegistry` to
ensure that the global `is_wasm_trap_pc` function returns `true` and at
runtime when we lookup information about the trap it's all readily
available (e.g. translating the trapping pc to a `TrapCode`).
* Fix non-component build
* Fix some offset calculations
* Only create one "always trap" per signature
Use an internal map to deduplicate during compilation.
Currently I don't know how we can reasonably implement this. Given all
the signatures of how we call functions and how functions are called on
the host there's no real feasible way that I know of to hook these two
up "seamlessly". This means that a component which reexports an imported
function can't be run in Wasmtime.
One of the main reasons for this is that when calling a component
function Wasmtime wants to lower arguments first and then have them
lifted when the host is called. With a reexport though there's not
actually anything to lower into so we'd sort of need something similar
to a table on the side or maybe a linear memory and that seems like it'd
get quite complicated quite quickly for not really all that much
benefit. As-such for now this simply returns a first-class error (rather
than the current panic) in situations like this.
* Implement lowered-then-lifted functions
This commit is a few features bundled into one, culminating in the
implementation of lowered-then-lifted functions for the component model.
It's probably not going to be used all that often but this is possible
within a valid component so Wasmtime needs to do something relatively
reasonable. The main things implemented in this commit are:
* Component instances are now assigned a `RuntimeComponentInstanceIndex`
to differentiate each one. This will be used in the future to detect
fusion (one instance lowering a function from another instance). For
now it's used to allocate separate `VMComponentFlags` for each
internal component instance.
* The `CoreExport<FuncIndex>` of lowered functions was changed to a
`CoreDef` since technically a lowered function can use another lowered
function as the callee. This ended up being not too difficult to plumb
through as everything else was already in place.
* A need arose to compile host-to-wasm trampolines which weren't already
present. Currently wasm in a component is always entered through a
host-to-wasm trampoline but core wasm modules are the source of all
the trampolines. In the case of a lowered-then-lifted function there
may not actually be any core wasm modules, so component objects now
contain necessary trampolines not otherwise provided by the core wasm
objects. This feature required splitting a new function into the
`Compiler` trait for creating a host-to-wasm trampoline. After doing
this core wasm compilation was also updated to leverage this which
further enabled compiling trampolines in parallel as opposed to the
previous synchronous compilation.
* Review comments
This commit implements the `post-return` feature of the canonical ABI in
the component model. This attribute is an optionally-specified function
which is to be executed after the return value has been processed by the
caller to optionally clean-up the return value. This enables, for
example, returning an allocated string and the host then knows how to
clean it up to prevent memory leaks in the original module.
The API exposed in this PR changes the prior `TypedFunc::call` API in
behavior but not in its signature. Previously the `TypedFunc::call`
method would set the `may_enter` flag on the way out, but now that
operation is deferred until a new `TypedFunc::post_return` method is
called. This means that once a method on an instance is invoked then
nothing else can be done on the instance until the `post_return` method
is called. Note that the method must be called irrespective of whether
the `post-return` canonical ABI option was specified or not. Internally
wasm will be invoked if necessary.
This is a pretty wonky and unergonomic API to work with. For now I
couldn't think of a better alternative that improved on the ergonomics.
In the theory that the raw Wasmtime bindings for a component may not be
used all that heavily (instead `wit-bindgen` would largely be used) I'm
hoping that this isn't too much of an issue in the future.

* Add support for nested components
This commit is an implementation of a number of features of the
component model including:
* Defining nested components
* Outer aliases to components and modules
* Instantiating nested components
The implementation here is intended to be a foundational pillar of
Wasmtime's component model support since recursion and nested components
are the bread-and-butter of the component model. At a high level the
intention for the component model implementation in Wasmtime has long
been that the recursive nature of components is "erased" at compile time
to something that's more optimized and efficient to process. This commit
ended up exemplifying this quite well where the vast majority of the
internal changes here are in the "compilation" phase of a component
rather than the runtime instantiation phase. The support in the
`wasmtime` crate, the runtime instantiation support, only had minor
updates here while the internals of translation have seen heavy updates.
The `translate` module was greatly refactored here in this commit.
Previously it would, as a component is parsed, create a final
`Component` to hand off to trampoline compilation and get persisted at
runtime. Instead now it's a thin layer over `wasmparser` which simply
records a list of `LocalInitializer` entries for how to instantiate the
component and its index spaces are built. This internal representation
of the instantiation of a component is pretty close to the binary format
intentionally.
Instead of performing dataflow legwork the `translate` phase of a
component is now responsible for two primary tasks:
1. All components and modules are discovered within a component. They're
assigned `Static{Component,Module}Index` depending on where they're
found and a `{Module,}Translation` is prepared for each one. This
"flattens" the recursive structure of the binary into an indexed list
processable later.
2. The lexical scope of components is managed here to implement outer
module and component aliases. This is a significant design
implementation because when closing over an outer component or module
that item may actually be imported or something like the result of a
previous instantiation. This means that the capture of
modules and components is both a lexical concern as well as a runtime
concern. The handling of the "runtime" bits are handled in the next
phase of compilation.
The next and currently final phase of compilation is a new pass where
much of the historical code in `translate.rs` has been moved to (but
heavily refactored). The goal of compilation is to produce one "flat"
list of initializers for a component (as happens prior to this PR) and
to achieve this an "inliner" phase runs which runs through the
instantiation process at compile time to produce a list of initializers.
This `inline` module is the main addition as part of this PR and is now
the workhorse for dataflow analysis and tracking what's actually
referring to what.
During the `inline` phase the local initializers recorded in the
`translate` phase are processed, in sequence, to instantiate a
component. Definitions of items are tracked to correspond to their root
definition which allows seeing across instantiation argument boundaries
and such. Handling "upvars" for component outer aliases is handled in
the `inline` phase as well by creating state for a component whenever a
component is defined as was recorded during the `translate` phase.
Finally this phase is chiefly responsible for doing all string-based
name resolution at compile time that it can. This means that at runtime
no string maps will need to be consulted for item exports and such.
The final result of inlining is a list of "global initializers" which is
a flat list processed during instantiation time. These are almost
identical to the initializers that were processed prior to this PR.
There are certainly still more gaps of the component model to implement
but this should be a major leg up in terms of functionality that
Wasmtime implements. This commit, however leaves behind a "hole" which
is not intended to be filled in at this time, namely importing and
exporting components at the "root" level from and to the host. This is
tracked and explained in more detail as part of #4283.
