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.

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.
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.

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.
Add a new options to control the native stack hw bound check feature:
- Besides the original option `cmake -DWAMR_DISABLE_HW_BOUND_CHECK=1/0`,
add a new option `cmake -DWAMR_DISABLE_STACK_HW_BOUND_CHECK=1/0`
- When the linear memory hw bound check is disabled, the stack hw bound check
will be disabled automatically, no matter what the input option is
- When the linear memory hw bound check is enabled, the stack hw bound check
is enabled/disabled according to the value of input option
- Besides the original option `--bounds-checks=1/0`, add a new option
`--stack-bounds-checks=1/0` for wamrc
Refer to: https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasm-micro-runtime/issues/1677
1. Support cross building wamrc and installing it
2. Remove PIE flag for Windows to fix compilation error when compiled by clang
3. Support linking LLVM shared libs to help build with system default or custom
LLVM installation and reduce binary size.
Fix two issues of building WAMR on Windows:
- The build_llvm.py script calls itself, spawning instances faster than they expire,
which makes Python3 eat up the entire RAM in a pretty short time.
- The MSVC compiler doesn't support preprocessor statements inside macro expressions.
Two places inside bh_assert() were found.
Fix multi-module issue:
don't call the sub module's function with "$sub_module_name$func_name"
Fix the aot_call_function free argv1 issue
Modify some API comments in wasm_export.h
Fix the wamrc help info
Use the semantic versioning (https://semver.org) to replace the current date
versioning system, which is more general and is requested by some developers,
e.g. issue #1357.
There are three parts in the new version string:
- major. Any incompatible modification on ABIs and APIs will lead to an increment
in the value of major, which mainly includes: AOT calling conventions, AOT file
format, wasm_export.h, wasm_c_api.h, and so on.
- minor. It represents new features, including MVP/POST-MVP features, libraries,
WAMR private ones, and so one.
- patch. It represents patches.
The new version will start from 1.0.0. Update the help info and version showing for
iwasm and wamrc.
Upgrade `cmake_minimum_required` from `(VERSION 2.8)` to `(VERSION 2.9)` to
yield the warning:
"Compatibility with CMake < 2.8.12 will be removed from a future version of CMake"
Add "-Wno-unused" for CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS to yield the compilation warnings
when build LLVM JIT.
Fix the link error when code coverage is enabled.
Support integrating 3rd-party toolchain llc compiler or asm compiler
into wamrc by setting environment variable WAMRC_LLC_COMPILER
or WAMRC_ASM_COMPILER, wamrc will use these tools to generate
object file from LLVM IR firstly, and then refactor the object file into
aot file.
When calling native function from AOT code, current implementation is to return
back to runtime to call aot_invoke_native, which calls wasm_runtime_invoke_native
and the latter calls assembly code. We did it before as there may be pointer and
string arguments to check and convert if the native function's registered signature
has character '*' and '$'.
As the built-in native function's signatures can be gotten in compilation time, we
check the pointer/string arguments and convert them into native address in AOT
code, and then invoke the native function directly, so as to improve performance.
Use LLVM new pass manager for wamrc to replace the legacy pass manger,
so as to gain better performance and reduce the compilation time.
Reference links:
- https://llvm.org/docs/NewPassManager.html
- https://blog.llvm.org/posts/2021-03-26-the-new-pass-manager
And add an option to use the legacy pm mode when building wamrc:
cmake .. -DWAMR_BUILD_LLVM_LEGACY_PM=1
For JIT mode, keep it unchanged as it only runs several function passes and
using new pass manager will increase the compilation time.
And refactor the codes of applying LLVM passes.
Enable running XIP file on Windows platform.
And add more strict checks for wamrc to report error when the input file
is same with output file, or the input file is AOT file but not wasm file.
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

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.
Fix some potential pointer overflows in aot applying relocations and
several other places.
And add sanitizer compiler flags to wamrc CMakeLists.txt to detect
such issues.
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.

Implement XIP (Execution In Place) feature for AOT mode to enable running the AOT code inside AOT file directly, without memory mapping the executable memory for AOT code and applying relocations for text section. Developer can use wamrc with "--enable-indirect-mode --disable-llvm-intrinsics" flags to generate the AOT file and run iwasm with "--xip" flag. Known issues: there might still be some relocations in the text section which access the ".rodata" like sections.
And also enable ARC target support for both interpreter mode and AOT mode.
