Alex Crichton a3b21031d4 Add a MachBuffer::defer_trap method (#6011)
* Add a `MachBuffer::defer_trap` method

This commit adds a new method to `MachBuffer` to defer trap opcodes to
the end of a function in a similar manner to how constants are deferred
to the end of the function. This is useful for backends which frequently
use `TrapIf`-style opcodes. Currently a jump is emitted which skips the
next instruction, a trap, and then execution continues normally. While
there isn't any pressing problem with this construction the trap opcode
is in the middle of the instruction stream as opposed to "off on the
side" despite rarely being taken.

With this method in place all the backends (except riscv64 since I
couldn't figure it out easily enough) have a new lowering of their
`TrapIf` opcode. Now a trap is deferred, which returns a label, and then
that label is jumped to when executing the trap. A fixup is then
recorded in `MachBuffer` to get patched later on during emission, or at
the end of the function. Subsequently all `TrapIf` instructions
translate to a single branch plus a single trap at the end of the
function.

I've additionally further updated some more lowerings in the x64 backend
which were explicitly using traps to instead use `TrapIf` where
applicable to avoid jumping over traps mid-function. Other backends
didn't appear to have many jump-over-the-next-trap patterns.

Lots of tests have had their expectations updated here which should
reflect all the traps being sunk to the end of functions.

* Print trap code on all platforms

* Emit traps before constants

* Preserve source location information for traps

* Fix test expectations

* Attempt to fix s390x

The MachBuffer was registering trap codes with the first byte of the
trap, but the SIGILL handler was expecting it to be registered with the
last byte of the trap. Exploit that SIGILL is always represented with a
2-byte instruction and always march 2-backwards for SIGILL, continuing
to march backwards 1 byte for SIGFPE-generating instructions.

* Back out s390x changes

* Back out more s390x bits

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!

(Note: make sure you installed Rust using the rustup method in the official instructions above, and do not have a copy of the Rust toolchain installed on your system in some other way as well (e.g. the system package manager). Otherwise, the rustup target add... command may not install the target for the correct copy of Rust.)

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.

Language Support

You can use Wasmtime from a variety of different languages through embeddings of the implementation.
