wasmtime/crates/bench-api/src/lib.rs

//! A C API for benchmarking Wasmtime's WebAssembly compilation, instantiation,
//! and execution.
//!
//! The API expects sequential calls to:
//!
//!  - `wasm_bench_create`
//!  - `wasm_bench_compile`
//!  - `wasm_bench_instantiate`
//!  - `wasm_bench_execute`
//!  - `wasm_bench_free`
//!
//! You may repeat this sequence of calls multiple times to take multiple
//! measurements of compilation, instantiation, and execution time within a
//! single process.
//!
//! All API calls must happen on the same thread.
//!
//! Functions which return pointers use null as an error value. Function which
//! return `int` use `0` as OK and non-zero as an error value.
//!
//! # Example
//!
//! ```
//! use std::ptr;
//! use wasmtime_bench_api::*;
//!
//! let working_dir = std::env::current_dir().unwrap().display().to_string();
//! let mut bench_api = ptr::null_mut();
//! unsafe {
//!     let code = wasm_bench_create(working_dir.as_ptr(), working_dir.len(), &mut bench_api);
//!     assert_eq!(code, OK);
//!     assert!(!bench_api.is_null());
//! };
//!
//! let wasm = wat::parse_bytes(br#"
//!     (module
//!         (func $bench_start (import "bench" "start"))
//!         (func $bench_end (import "bench" "end"))
//!         (func $start (export "_start")
//!             call $bench_start
//!             i32.const 1
//!             i32.const 2
//!             i32.add
//!             drop
//!             call $bench_end
//!         )
//!     )
//! "#).unwrap();
//!
//! // Start your compilation timer here.
//! let code = unsafe { wasm_bench_compile(bench_api, wasm.as_ptr(), wasm.len()) };
//! // End your compilation timer here.
//! assert_eq!(code, OK);
//!
//! // The Wasm benchmark will expect us to provide functions to start ("bench"
//! // "start") and stop ("bench" "stop") the measurement counters/timers during
//! // execution.
//! extern "C" fn bench_start() {
//!     // Start your execution timer here.
//! }
//! extern "C" fn bench_stop() {
//!     // End your execution timer here.
//! }
//!
//! // Start your instantiation timer here.
//! let code = unsafe { wasm_bench_instantiate(bench_api, bench_start, bench_stop) };
//! // End your instantiation timer here.
//! assert_eq!(code, OK);
//!
//! // No need to start timers for the execution since, by convention, the timer
//! // functions we passed during instantiation will be called by the benchmark
//! // at the appropriate time (before and after the benchmarked section).
//! let code = unsafe { wasm_bench_execute(bench_api) };
//! assert_eq!(code, OK);
