This updates to rustix 0.37.13, which contains some features we can use to implement more features in wasi-common for the wasi-sockets API. This also pulls in several other updates to avoid having multiple versions of rustix. This does introduce multiple versions of windows-sys, as the errno and tokio crates are currently using 0.45 while rustix and other dependencies have updated to 0.48; PRs updating these are already in flight so this will hopefully be resolved soon. It also includes cap-std 1.0.14, which disables the use of `openat2` and `statx` on Android, fixing a bug where some Android devices crash the process when those syscalls are executed.
wasi-common
A Bytecode Alliance project
A library providing a common implementation of WASI hostcalls for re-use in any WASI-enabled runtime.
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
