This commit merges [CraneStation/wasi-common] repo as a subdir of this repo while preserving **all** of git history. There is an initiative to pull `wasi-common` into [CraneStation/wasmtime], and [CraneStation/wasmtime] becoming a monorepo. This came about for several reasons with a common theme of convenience, namely, having a monorepo: 1. cleans up the problem of dependencies (as we have seen first hand with dependabot enabled, it can cause some grief) 2. completely removes the problem of syncing the closely dependent repos (e.g., updating `wasi-common` with say a bugfix generally implies creating a "sync" commit for pulling in the changes into the "parent" repo, in this case, `wasmtime`) 3. mainly for the two reasons above, makes publishing to crates.io easier 4. hopefully streamlines the process of getting the community involved in contributing to `wasi-common` as now everything is one place [CraneStation/wasi-common]: https://github.com/CraneStation/wasi-common [CraneStation/wasmtime]: https://github.com/CraneStation/wasmtime

# wasi-common
|
|
|
|
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][lucet-wasi-tracker] 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
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
[rustup]: https://rustup.rs
|
|
|
|
Next initiate submodules containing the integration testsuite
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git submodule update --init
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now, you should be able to run the integration testsuite by enabling the `wasm_tests` feature
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cargo test --features wasm_tests
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Third-Party Code
|
|
Significant parts of our hostcall implementations are derived from the C implementations in
|
|
`cloudabi-utils`. See [LICENSE.cloudabi-utils](LICENSE.cloudabi-utils) for license information.
