Segue is an optimization technology which uses x86 segment register to store
the WebAssembly linear memory base address, so as to remove most of the cost
of SFI (Software-based Fault Isolation) base addition and free up a general
purpose register, by this way it may:
- Improve the performance of JIT/AOT
- Reduce the footprint of JIT/AOT, the JIT/AOT code generated is smaller
- Reduce the compilation time of JIT/AOT
This PR uses the x86-64 GS segment register to apply the optimization, currently
it supports linux and linux-sgx platforms on x86-64 target. By default it is disabled,
developer can use the option below to enable it for wamrc and iwasm(with LLVM
JIT enabled):
```bash
wamrc --enable-segue=[<flags>] -o output_file wasm_file
iwasm --enable-segue=[<flags>] wasm_file [args...]
```
`flags` can be:
i32.load, i64.load, f32.load, f64.load, v128.load,
i32.store, i64.store, f32.store, f64.store, v128.store
Use comma to separate them, e.g. `--enable-segue=i32.load,i64.store`,
and `--enable-segue` means all flags are added.

Add nightly (UTC time) checks with asan and ubsan, and also put gcc-4.8 build
to nightly run since we don't need to run it with every PR.

- Translate all the opcodes of threads spec proposal for Fast JIT
- Add the atomic flag for Fast JIT load/store IRs to support atomic load/store
- Add new atomic related Fast JIT IRs and translate them in the codegen
- Add suspend_flags check in branch opcodes and before/after call function
- Modify CI to enable Fast JIT multi-threading test

- Add timeout to CI WASI tests to avoid keeping CI node busy in case of
deadlock in thread tests
- Update wasi-testsuite commit used, after fix in wasi-threads proposal
https://github.com/WebAssembly/wasi-threads/pull/40
Support collecting code coverage with wamr-test-suites script by using
lcov and genhtml tools, eg.:
cd tests/wamr-test-suites
./test_wamr.sh -s spec -b -P -C
The default code coverage and html files are generated at:
tests/wamr-test-suites/workspace/wamr.lcov
tests/wamr-test-suites/workspace/wamr-lcov.zip
And update wamr-test-suites scripts to support testing GC spec cases to
avoid frequent synchronization conflicts between branch main and dev/gc.
Upgrade the version of related toolkits:
- upgrade llvm to 15.0
- upgrade wasi-sdk to 19.0
- upgrade emsdk to 3.1.28
- upgrade wabt to 1.0.31
- upgrade binaryen to 111
And upgrade the CI scripts, sample workload build scripts, Dockerfiles, and documents.
Implement 2-level Multi-tier JIT engine: tier-up from Fast JIT to LLVM JIT to
get quick cold startup by Fast JIT and better performance by gradually
switching to LLVM JIT when the LLVM JIT functions are compiled by the
backend threads.
Refer to:
https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasm-micro-runtime/issues/1302
Refactor LLVM JIT for some purposes:
- To simplify the source code of JIT compilation
- To simplify the JIT modes
- To align with LLVM latest changes
- To prepare for the Multi-tier JIT compilation, refer to #1302
The changes mainly include:
- Remove the MCJIT mode, replace it with ORC JIT eager mode
- Remove the LLVM legacy pass manager (only keep the LLVM new pass manager)
- Change the lazy mode's LLVM module/function binding:
change each function in an individual LLVM module into all functions in a single LLVM module
- Upgraded ORC JIT to ORCv2 JIT to enable lazy compilation
Refer to #1468
Import WAMR Fast JIT which is a lightweight JIT with quick startup, small footprint,
relatively good performance (~40% to ~50% of LLVM JIT) and good portability.
Platforms supported: Linux, MacOS and Linux SGX.
Arch supported: x86-64.
Fix some issues on MacOS platform
- Enable libc-wasi by default
- Set target abi to "gnu" if it is not set for wamrc to avoid generating
object file of unsupported Mach-O format
- Set `<vendor>-<sys>` info according to target abi for wamrc to support
generating AOT file for other OSs but not current host
- Set cpu name if arch/abi/cpu are not set to avoid checking SIMD
capability failed
- Set size level to 1 for MacOS/Windows platform to avoid relocation type
unsupported warning
- Clear posix_memmap.c compiling warning
- Fix spec case test script issues, enable test spec cases on MacOS

Update spec test cases to commit 2460ad02b51fb5ed5824f44de287a8638b19a5f8,
and modify wamr test suite script as the SIMD cases have been added into spec
main repo by default, no need to clone SIMD repo again when testing SIMD.
Auto detect whether file is XIP file before loading module in posix like and
linux-sgx platforms, and if yes, mmap executable memory automatically to
run the XIP file.
Add document about XIP feature.
Enable test spec cases with XIP feature.
Enable ref types feature and bulk memory feature by default for wamrc
and provide "--disable-ref-types", "--disable-bulk-memory" to disable
them.
And remove the ref_type_flag option in wasm_loader.c which is used to
control whether to enable ref types or not when ENABLE_REF_TYPES
macro is enabled in wamrc. As the wasm binary format with ref types
is compatible with the binary format before, we can remove the option.
Also update the spec test scripts.
Enable LLVM link time optimization for AOT and enable it by default,
and provide "wamrc --disable-llvm-lto" option to disable it.
And modify the spec test script, disable it by default when testing
spec cases.

Port spec-test-script/all.sh to spec-test-script/all.py and enable to run
spec cases with multiple threads parallelly:
- It reduces spec_test.yml from ~14min to ~9min and reduces
compilation_on_sgx.yml from ~18min to ~12min
- run `./test_wamr.sh` will keep the same experience likes before by default
- run `./test_wamr.sh -P` will enable parallelism mode
- in parallelism mode, all.py will be in a less-output mode. It only outputs
the last words of failed cases and will not output logs for those passed
Apply clang-format for core/iwasm/include, core/iwasm/common and
core/iwasm/aot files.
Update spec cases test script:
- Checkout latest commit of https://github.com/WebAssembly/spec
- Checkout main branch but not master of https://github.com/WebAssembly/threads
- Update wabt to latest version
And update source debugging document.

Fix document issues: add ARC to supported targets, fix how to build wamrc for MacOS.
Fix spec case test script issue: the latest wabt has enabled simd by default, no need to
add "--enable-simd" option for test script.
Fix simd LLVM IR compilation issue: using index calculated by opcode to access array
element should not be out of array boundary, add bh_assert() for it.
