Dan Gohman 9b3477f602 Implement the remaining socket-related WASI functions. (#4776)
* Implement the remaining socket-related WASI functions.

The original WASI specification included `sock_read`, `sock_write`, and
`shutdown`. Now that we have some sockets support, implement these
additional functions, to make it easier for people porting existing code
to WASI.

It's expected that this will all be subsumed by the wasi-sockets
proposal, but for now, this is a relatively small change which should
hopefully unblock people trying to use the current `accept` support.

* Update to system-interface 0.22, which has fixes for Windows.

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 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
