Andrew Brown 5ba0d696b7 ci: unpin the wasi-nn tasks from an older Ubuntu (#6089)
* ci: unpin the wasi-nn tasks from an older Ubuntu

Previously, OpenVINO's lack of APT packages for Ubuntu 22.04 (`jammy`)
prevented us from upgrading the GitHub runner to use `ubuntu-latest`. I
updated the `install-openvino-action` to substitute in the `focal`
packages in this case (this is what the OpenVINO team considers the fix)
so this pin should no longer be necessary. Fixes #5408.

(Run all CI actions: prtest:full)

wasmtime-wasi-nn

This crate enables support for the wasi-nn API in Wasmtime. Currently it contains an implementation of wasi-nn using OpenVINO™ but in the future it could support multiple machine learning backends. Since the wasi-nn API is expected to be an optional feature of WASI, this crate is currently separate from the wasi-common crate. This crate is experimental and its API, functionality, and location could quickly change.

Use

Use the Wasmtime APIs to instantiate a Wasm module and link in the WasiNn implementation as follows:

let wasi_nn = WasiNn::new(&store, WasiNnCtx::new()?);
wasi_nn.add_to_linker(&mut linker)?;

Build

This crate should build as usual (i.e. cargo build) but note that using an existing installation of OpenVINO™, rather than building from source, will drastically improve the build times. See the openvino crate for more information

Example

An end-to-end example demonstrating ML classification is included in examples:

  • tests/wasi-nn-rust-bindings contains ergonomic bindings for writing Rust code against the wasi-nn APIs
  • tests/classification-example contains a standalone Rust project that uses the wasi-nn APIs and is compiled to the wasm32-wasi target using the wasi-nn-rust-bindings

Run the example from the Wasmtime project directory:
