* More use of `anyhow`.
* Change `make_accessible` into `protect_linear_memory` to better demonstrate
what it is used for; this will make the uffd implementation make a little
more sense.
* Remove `create_memory_map` in favor of just creating the `Mmap` instances in
the pooling allocator. This also removes the need for `MAP_NORESERVE` in the
uffd implementation.
* Moar comments.
* Remove `BasePointerIterator` in favor of `impl Iterator`.
* The uffd implementation now only monitors linear memory pages and will only
receive faults on pages that could potentially be accessible and never on a
statically known guard page.
* Stop allocating memory or table pools if the maximum limit of the memory or
table is 0.
This commit implements the pooling instance allocator.
The allocation strategy can be set with `Config::with_allocation_strategy`.
The pooling strategy uses the pooling instance allocator to preallocate a
contiguous region of memory for instantiating modules that adhere to various
limits.
The intention of the pooling instance allocator is to reserve as much of the
host address space needed for instantiating modules ahead of time and to reuse
committed memory pages wherever possible.
* 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.
* Run rustfmt
* Rename `offset` to `ptr`
* 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
Calls to `VirtualFree` that pass `MEM_RELEASE` must specify a size of 0
as the OS will be freeing the original range for the given base address.
The calls to free `MMap` memory on Windows were silently failing because
of an incorrect assertion (on Windows, `VirtualFree` returns non-zero
for success).
This was caught via AppVerifier while investigating a heap overrun issue
on a different PR.
* Migrate back to `std::` stylistically
This commit moves away from idioms such as `alloc::` and `core::` as
imports of standard data structures and types. Instead it migrates all
crates to uniformly use `std::` for importing standard data structures
and types. This also removes the `std` and `core` features from all
crates to and removes any conditional checking for `feature = "std"`
All of this support was previously added in #407 in an effort to make
wasmtime/cranelift "`no_std` compatible". Unfortunately though this
change comes at a cost:
* The usage of `alloc` and `core` isn't idiomatic. Especially trying to
dual between types like `HashMap` from `std` as well as from
`hashbrown` causes imports to be surprising in some cases.
* Unfortunately there was no CI check that crates were `no_std`, so none
of them actually were. Many crates still imported from `std` or
depended on crates that used `std`.
It's important to note, however, that **this does not mean that wasmtime
will not run in embedded environments**. The style of the code today and
idioms aren't ready in Rust to support this degree of multiplexing and
makes it somewhat difficult to keep up with the style of `wasmtime`.
Instead it's intended that embedded runtime support will be added as
necessary. Currently only `std` is necessary to build `wasmtime`, and
platforms that natively need to execute `wasmtime` will need to use a
Rust target that supports `std`. Note though that not all of `std` needs
to be supported, but instead much of it could be configured off to
return errors, and `wasmtime` would be configured to gracefully handle
errors.
The goal of this PR is to move `wasmtime` back to idiomatic usage of
features/`std`/imports/etc and help development in the short-term.
Long-term when platform concerns arise (if any) they can be addressed by
moving back to `no_std` crates (but fixing the issues mentioned above)
or ensuring that the target in Rust has `std` available.
