@ -8,8 +8,8 @@ The memory model of WAMR can be basically described as below:
<center><img src="./pics/wamr_memory_model.png" width="75%" height="75%"></img></center>
Note:
- **global heap**: the heap to allocate memory for runtime data structures, including wasm module, wasm module instance, exec env, wasm operand stack and so on. It is initialized by `wasm_runtime_init` or `wasm_runtime_full_init`. And for `wasm_runtime_full_init`, developer can specify the memory allocation mode with `RuntimeInitArgs *init_args`: allocate memory from a user defined byte buffer, from user defined allocation function, or from the platform's os_malloc function. Refer to [wasm_export.h](../core/iwasm/include/wasm_export.h#L98-L141) and [Embedding WAMR guideline](doc/embed_wamr.md#the-runtime-initialization) for more details. And developer can use `wasm_runtime_malloc/wasm_runtime_free` to allocate/free memory from/to the global heap.
- **wasm operand stack**: the stack to store the operands required by wasm bytecodes as WebAssembly is based on a stack machine. If the exec_env is created by developer with `wasm_runtime_create_exec_env`, then its size is specified by `wasm_runtime_create_exec_env`, or if the exec_env is created by runtime, e.g. creating exec_env in a sub thread, the size is specified by `wasm_runtime_instantiate`.
- **global heap**: the heap to allocate memory for runtime data structures, including wasm module, wasm module instance, exec env, wasm operand stack and so on. It is initialized by `wasm_runtime_init` or `wasm_runtime_full_init`. And for `wasm_runtime_full_init`, developer can specify the memory allocation mode with `RuntimeInitArgs *init_args`: allocate memory from a user defined byte buffer, from user defined allocation function, or from the platform's os_malloc function. Refer to [wasm_export.h](../core/iwasm/include/wasm_export.h#L98-L141) and [Embedding WAMR guideline](./embed_wamr.md#the-runtime-initialization) for more details. And developer can use `wasm_runtime_malloc/wasm_runtime_free` to allocate/free memory from/to the global heap.
- **wasm operand stack**: the stack to store the operands required by wasm bytecodes as WebAssembly is based on a stack machine. If the exec_env is created by developer with `wasm_runtime_create_exec_env`, then its size is specified by `wasm_runtime_create_exec_env`, otherwise if the exec_env is created by runtime internally, e.g. by `wasm_application_execute_main` or `wasm_application_execute_func`, then the size is specified by `wasm_runtime_instantiate`.
- **linear memory**: a contiguous, mutable array of raw bytes. It is created with an initial size but might be grown dynamically. For most compilers, e.g. wasi-sdk, emsdk, rustc or asc, normally it includes three parts, data area, auxiliary stack area and heap area. For wasi-sdk, the initial/max size can be specified with `-Wl,--initial-memory=n1,--max-memory=n2`, for emsdk, the initial/max size can be specified with `-s INITIAL_MEMORY=n1 -s MAXIMUM_MEMORY=n2 -s ALLOW_MEMORY_GROWTH=1` or `-s TOTAL_MEMORY=n`, and for asc, they can be specified with `--initialMemory` and `--maximumMemory` flags.
- **aux stack**: the auxiliary stack resides in linear memory to store some temporary data when calling wasm functions, for example, calling a wasm function with complex struct arguments. For wasi-sdk, the size can be specified with `-z stack-size=n`, for emsdk, the size can be specified with `-s TOTAL_STACK=n`.
- **app heap and libc heap**: the heap to allocate memory for wasm app, note that app heap is created only when the malloc/free functions (or __new/__release functions for AssemblyScript) are not exported and runtime can not detect the libc heap. To export the malloc/free functions, for wasi-sdk and emsdk, developer can use `-Wl,--export=malloc -Wl,--export=free` options, for asc, developer can use `--exportRuntime` option. For app heap, the size is specified by `wasm_runtime_instantiate`. It is recommended to export the malloc/free functions and disable app heap in single thread mode, and for multi-threading, as the libc heap isn't thread-safe, it is recommended to remove the dlmalloc.o from libc.a for wasi-sdk and use `-s MALLOC="none"` for emsdk, refer to [WAMR pthread library](./pthread_library.md) for more details. And developer can use `wasm_runtime_module_malloc/wasm_runtime_module_free` to allocate/free memory from/to app heap (or libc heap if malloc/free functions are exported).
