* x64: Take SIGFPE signals for divide traps Prior to this commit Wasmtime would configure `avoid_div_traps=true` unconditionally for Cranelift. This, for the division-based instructions, would change emitted code to explicitly trap on trap conditions instead of letting the `div` x86 instruction trap. There's no specific reason for Wasmtime, however, to specifically avoid traps in the `div` instruction. This means that the extra generated branches on x86 aren't necessary since the `div` and `idiv` instructions already trap for similar conditions as wasm requires. This commit instead disables the `avoid_div_traps` setting for Wasmtime's usage of Cranelift. Subsequently the codegen rules were updated slightly: * When `avoid_div_traps=true`, traps are no longer emitted for `div` instructions. * The `udiv`/`urem` instructions now list their trap as divide-by-zero instead of integer overflow. * The lowering for `sdiv` was updated to still explicitly check for zero but the integer overflow case is deferred to the instruction itself. * The lowering of `srem` no longer checks for zero and the listed trap for the `div` instruction is a divide-by-zero. This means that the codegen for `udiv` and `urem` no longer have any branches. The codegen for `sdiv` removes one branch but keeps the zero-check to differentiate the two kinds of traps. The codegen for `srem` removes one branch but keeps the -1 check since the semantics of `srem` mismatch with the semantics of `idiv` with a -1 divisor (specifically for INT_MIN). This is unlikely to have really all that much of a speedup but was something I noticed during #6008 which seemed like it'd be good to clean up. Plus Wasmtime's signal handling was already set up to catch `SIGFPE`, it was just never firing. * Remove the `avoid_div_traps` cranelift setting With no known users currently removing this should be possible and helps simplify the x64 backend. * x64: GC more support for avoid_div_traps Remove the `validate_sdiv_divisor*` pseudo-instructions and clean up some of the ISLE rules now that `div` is allowed to itself trap unconditionally. * x64: Store div trap code in instruction itself * Keep divisors in registers, not in memory Don't accidentally fold multiple traps together * Handle EXC_ARITHMETIC on macos * Update emit tests * Update winch and tests

A standalone runtime for WebAssembly
A Bytecode Alliance project

Installation
The Wasmtime CLI can be installed on Linux and macOS (locally) with a small install script:
curl https://wasmtime.dev/install.sh -sSf | bash
Windows or otherwise interested users can download installers and binaries directly from the GitHub Releases page.
Example
If you've got the Rust compiler installed then you can take some Rust source code:
fn main() {
println!("Hello, world!");
}
and compile/run it with:
$ rustup target add wasm32-wasi
$ rustc hello.rs --target wasm32-wasi
$ wasmtime hello.wasm
Hello, world!
Features
-
Fast. Wasmtime is built on the optimizing Cranelift code generator to quickly generate high-quality machine code either at runtime or ahead-of-time. Wasmtime is optimized for efficient instantiation, low-overhead calls between the embedder and wasm, and scalability of concurrent instances.
-
Secure. Wasmtime's development is strongly focused on correctness and security. Building on top of Rust's runtime safety guarantees, each Wasmtime feature goes through careful review and consideration via an RFC process. Once features are designed and implemented, they undergo 24/7 fuzzing donated by Google's OSS Fuzz. As features stabilize they become part of a release, and when things go wrong we have a well-defined security policy in place to quickly mitigate and patch any issues. We follow best practices for defense-in-depth and integrate protections and mitigations for issues like Spectre. Finally, we're working to push the state-of-the-art by collaborating with academic researchers to formally verify critical parts of Wasmtime and Cranelift.
-
Configurable. Wasmtime uses sensible defaults, but can also be configured to provide more fine-grained control over things like CPU and memory consumption. Whether you want to run Wasmtime in a tiny environment or on massive servers with many concurrent instances, we've got you covered.
-
WASI. Wasmtime supports a rich set of APIs for interacting with the host environment through the WASI standard.
-
Standards Compliant. Wasmtime passes the official WebAssembly test suite, implements the official C API of wasm, and implements future proposals to WebAssembly as well. Wasmtime developers are intimately engaged with the WebAssembly standards process all along the way too.
