Add flag `LoadArgs.clone_wasm_binary` to control whether to clone the wasm/aot
binary in wasm-c-api module. If false, API `wasm_module_new_ex` won't clone the
binary, which may reduce the footprint.
Add flag `LoadArgs.wasm_binary_freeable` to control whether the wasm/aot binary
may be freed after instantiation for wamr API `wasm_runtime_load_ex`, if yes, then
for some running modes, the wasm/aot module doesn't refer to the input binary
again so developer can free it after instantiation to reduce the footprint.
And add API `wasm_module_is_underlying_binary_freeable` and
`wasm_runtime_is_underlying_binary_freeable` to check whether the input binary
can be freed after instantiation for wasm-c-api and wamr api.
And add sample to illustrate it.
Support getting global type from `wasm_runtime_get_import_type` and
`wasm_runtime_get_export_type`, and add two APIs:
```C
wasm_valkind_t
wasm_global_type_get_valkind(const wasm_global_type_t global_type);
bool
wasm_global_type_get_mutable(const wasm_global_type_t global_type);
```
- Add a few API (https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasm-micro-runtime/issues/3325)
```c
wasm_runtime_detect_native_stack_overflow_size
wasm_runtime_detect_native_stack_overflow
```
- Adapt the runtime to use them
- Adapt samples/native-stack-overflow to use them
- Add a few missing overflow checks in the interpreters
- Build and run the sample on the CI
Some issues are related with memory fragmentation, which may cause
the linear memory cannot be allocated. In WAMR, the memory managed
by the system is often trivial, but linear memory usually directly allocates
a large block and often remains unchanged for a long time. Their sensitivity
and contribution to fragmentation are different, which is suitable for
different allocation strategies. If we can control the linear memory's allocation,
do not make it from system heap, the overhead of heap management might
be avoided.
Add `mem_alloc_usage_t usage` as the first argument for user defined
malloc/realloc/free functions when `WAMR_BUILD_ALLOC_WITH_USAGE` cmake
variable is set as 1, and make passing `Alloc_For_LinearMemory` to the
argument when allocating the linear memory.
- Add new API wasm_runtime_load_ex() in wasm_export.h
and wasm_module_new_ex in wasm_c_api.h
- Put aot_create_perf_map() into a separated file aot_perf_map.c
- In perf.map, function names include user specified module name
- Enhance the script to help flamegraph generations
This PR adds a max_memory_pages parameter to module instantiation APIs,
to allow overriding the max memory defined in the WASM module.
Sticking to the max memory defined in the module is quite limiting when
using shared memory in production. If targeted devices have different
memory constraints, many wasm files have to be generated with different
max memory values. And device constraints may not be known in advance.
Being able to set the max memory value during module instantiation allows
to reuse the same wasm module, e.g. by retrying instantiation with different
max memory value.
Implement the GC (Garbage Collection) feature for interpreter mode,
AOT mode and LLVM-JIT mode, and support most features of the latest
spec proposal, and also enable the stringref feature.
Use `cmake -DWAMR_BUILD_GC=1/0` to enable/disable the feature,
and `wamrc --enable-gc` to generate the AOT file with GC supported.
And update the AOT file version from 2 to 3 since there are many AOT
ABI breaks, including the changes of AOT file format, the changes of
AOT module/memory instance layouts, the AOT runtime APIs for the
AOT code to invoke and so on.
Enhance the statistic of wasm function execution time, or the performance
profiling feature:
- Add os_time_thread_cputime_us() to get the cputime of a thread,
and use it to calculate the execution time of a wasm function
- Support the statistic of the children execution time of a function,
and dump it in wasm_runtime_dump_perf_profiling
- Expose two APIs:
wasm_runtime_sum_wasm_exec_time
wasm_runtime_get_wasm_func_exec_time
And rename os_time_get_boot_microsecond to os_time_get_boot_us.
Errors were reported when initializing wasm_val_t values with WASM_I32_VAL like macros.
```
error: missing initializer for member ‘wasm_val_t::__paddings’ [-Werror=missing-field-initializers]
64 | wasm_val_t res = {WASM_INIT_VAL};
```
And rename DEPRECATED to WASM_API_DEPRECATED to avoid using defines with generic names.
Allow to invoke the quick call entry wasm_runtime_quick_invoke_c_api_import to
call the wasm-c-api import functions to speedup the calling process, which reduces
the data copying.
Use `wamrc --invoke-c-api-import` to generate the optimized AOT code, and set
`jit_options->quick_invoke_c_api_import` true in wasm_engine_new when LLVM JIT
is enabled.
Add an API to set segue flags for wasm-c-api LLVM JIT mode:
```C
wasm_config_t *
wasm_config_set_segue_flags(wasm_config_t *config, uint32 segue_flags);
```
And refactor the original perf support
- use WAMR_BUILD_LINUX_PERF as the cmake compilation control
- use WASM_ENABLE_LINUX_PERF as the compiler macro
- use `wamrc --enable-linux-perf` to generate aot file which contains fp operations
- use `iwasm --enable-linux-perf` to create perf map for `perf record`
The host embedder may also want to terminate the wasm instance
for single-threading mode, and it should work by setting exception
to the wasm instance.
Support new a wasm_config_t, set allocation and linux_perf_support
options to it, and then pass it to wasm_engine_new_with_config to
new an engine with private configuration.
This patch enables mapping host directories to guest directories by parsing
the `map_dir_list` argument in API `wasm_runtime_init_wasi` for libc-wasi. It
follows the format `<guest-path>::<host-path>`.
It also adds argument `--map-dir=<guest::host>` argument for `iwasm`
common line tool, and allows to add multiple mappings:
```bash
iwasm --map-dir=<guest-path1::host-path1> --map-dir=<guest-path2::host-path2> ...
```
To allow non-POSIX platforms such as Windows to support WASI libc
filesystem functionality, create a set of wrapper functions which provide a
platform-agnostic interface to interact with the host filesystem. For now,
the Windows implementation is stubbed but this will be implemented
properly in a future PR. There are no functional changes in this change,
just a reorganization of code to move any direct POSIX references out of
posix.c in the libc implementation into posix_file.c under the shared
POSIX sources.
See https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasm-micro-runtime/issues/2495 for a
more detailed overview of the plan to port the WASI libc filesystem to Windows.
Support muti-module for AOT mode, currently only implement the
multi-module's function import feature for AOT, the memory/table/
global import are not implemented yet.
And update wamr-test-suites scripts, multi-module sample and some
CIs accordingly.
Send a signal whose handler is no-op to a blocking thread to wake up
the blocking syscall with either EINTR equivalent or partial success.
Unlike the approach taken in the `dev/interrupt_block_insn` branch (that is,
signal + longjmp similarly to `OS_ENABLE_HW_BOUND_CHECK`), this PR
does not use longjmp because:
* longjmp from signal handler doesn't work on nuttx
refer to https://github.com/apache/nuttx/issues/10326
* the singal+longjmp approach may be too difficult for average programmers
who might implement host functions to deal with
See also https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasm-micro-runtime/issues/1910
Add API wasm_runtime_terminate to terminate a module instance
by setting "terminated by user" exception to the module instance.
And update the product-mini of posix platforms.
Note: this doesn't work for some situations like blocking system calls.
Introduce module instance context APIs which can set one or more contexts created
by the embedder for a wasm module instance:
```C
wasm_runtime_create_context_key
wasm_runtime_destroy_context_key
wasm_runtime_set_context
wasm_runtime_set_context_spread
wasm_runtime_get_context
```
And make libc-wasi use it and set wasi context as the first context bound to the wasm
module instance.
Also add samples.
Refer to https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasm-micro-runtime/issues/2460.
When embedding WAMR, this PR allows to register a callback that is
invoked when memory.grow fails.
In case of memory allocation failures, some languages allow to handle
the error (e.g. by checking the return code of malloc/calloc in C), some
others (e.g. Rust) just panic.
## Context
Some native libraries may want to explicitly delete an externref object without
waiting for the module instance to be deleted.
In addition, it may want to add a cleanup function.
## Proposed Changes
Implement:
* `wasm_externref_objdel` to explicitly delete an externeref'd object.
* `wasm_externref_set_cleanup` to set a cleanup function that is called when
the externref'd object is deleted.
Allow to use `cmake -DWAMR_CONFIGURABLE_BOUNDS_CHECKS=1` to
build iwasm, and then run `iwasm --disable-bounds-checks` to disable the
memory access boundary checks.
And add two APIs:
`wasm_runtime_set_bounds_checks` and `wasm_runtime_is_bounds_checks_enabled`
LLVM PGO (Profile-Guided Optimization) allows the compiler to better optimize code
for how it actually runs. This PR implements the AOT static PGO, and is tested on
Linux x86-64 and x86-32. The basic steps are:
1. Use `wamrc --enable-llvm-pgo -o <aot_file_of_pgo> <wasm_file>`
to generate an instrumented aot file.
2. Compile iwasm with `cmake -DWAMR_BUILD_STATIC_PGO=1` and run
`iwasm --gen-prof-file=<raw_profile_file> <aot_file_of_pgo>`
to generate the raw profile file.
3. Run `llvm-profdata merge -output=<profile_file> <raw_profile_file>`
to merge the raw profile file into the profile file.
4. Run `wamrc --use-prof-file=<profile_file> -o <aot_file> <wasm_file>`
to generate the optimized aot file.
5. Run the optimized aot_file: `iwasm <aot_file>`.
The test scripts are also added for each benchmark, run `test_pgo.sh` under
each benchmark's folder to test the AOT static pgo.
