* wasi-common: update wasi submodule

This updates the WASI submodule, pulling in changes to the witx crate,
now that there is a 0.9.1 version including some bug fixes. See
WebAssembly/WASI#434 for more information.

* wiggle: update witx dependencies

* publish: verify and vendor witx-cli

* adjust root workspace members

This commit removes some items from the root manifest's workspace
members array, and adds `witx-cli` to the root `workspace.exclude`
array.

The motivation for this stems from a cargo bug described in
rust-lang/cargo#6745: `workspace.exclude` does not work if it is nested
under a `workspace.members` path.

See WebAssembly/WASI#438 for the underlying change to the WASI submodule
which reorganized the `witx-cli` crate, and WebAssembly/WASI#398 for the
original PR introducing `witx-cli`.

See [this
comment](https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/pull/3025#issuecomment-867741175)
for more details about the compilation errors, and failed alternative
approaches that necessitated this change.

N.B. This is not a functional change, these crates are still implicitly
workspace members as transitive dependencies, but this will allow us to
side-step the aforementioned cargo bug.

wasi-common

A Bytecode Alliance project

A library providing a common implementation of WASI hostcalls for re-use in any WASI-enabled runtime.

Crates.io version Download docs.rs docs

The wasi-common crate will ultimately serve as a library providing a common implementation of WASI hostcalls for re-use in any WASI (and potentially non-WASI) runtimes such as Wasmtime and Lucet.

The library is an adaption of lucet-wasi crate from the Lucet project, and it is currently based on 40ae1df git revision.

Please note that the library requires Rust compiler version at least 1.37.0.

Supported syscalls

*nix

In our *nix implementation, we currently support the entire WASI API with the exception of socket hostcalls:

  • sock_recv
  • sock_send
  • sock_shutdown

We expect these to be implemented when network access is standardised.

We also currently do not support the proc_raise hostcall, as it is expected to be dropped entirely from WASI.

Windows

In our Windows implementation, we currently support the minimal subset of WASI API which allows for running the very basic "Hello world!" style WASM apps. More coming shortly, so stay tuned!

Development hints

When testing the crate, you may want to enable and run full wasm32 integration testsuite. This requires wasm32-wasi target installed which can be done as follows using rustup

rustup target add wasm32-wasi

Now, you should be able to run the integration testsuite by running cargo test on the test-programs package with test-programs/test_programs feature enabled:

cargo test --features test-programs/test_programs --package test-programs
