Eventually this should be added to the wasmtime-go binding, addressing
https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime-go/issues/63.
Added a snippet to examples/interrupt.c to verify that this works as
expected in manual testing.

Implement Wasmtime's new API as designed by RFC 11. This is quite a large commit which has had lots of discussion externally, so for more information it's best to read the RFC thread and the PR thread.
* Update WebAssembly C API submodule to latest commit.
This commit updates the WebAssembly C API submodule (for `wasm.h`) to the
latest commit out of master.
This fixes the behavior of `wasm_name_new_from_string` such that it no longer
copies the null character into the name, which caused unexpected failures when
using the Wasmtime linker as imports wouldn't resolve when the null was
present.
Along with this change were breaking changes to `wasm_func_call`, the host
callback signatures, and `wasm_instance_new` to take a vector type instead of a
pointer to an unsized array.
As a result, Wasmtime language bindings based on the C API will need to be
updated once this change is pulled in.
Fixes#2211.
Fixes#2131.
* Update Doxygen comments for wasm.h changes.
* Moves CodeMemory, VMInterrupts and SignatureRegistry from Compiler
* CompiledModule holds CodeMemory and GdbJitImageRegistration
* Store keeps track of its JIT code
* Makes "jit_int.rs" stuff Send+Sync
* Adds the threads example.
* Implement interrupting wasm code, reimplement stack overflow
This commit is a relatively large change for wasmtime with two main
goals:
* Primarily this enables interrupting executing wasm code with a trap,
preventing infinite loops in wasm code. Note that resumption of the
wasm code is not a goal of this commit.
* Additionally this commit reimplements how we handle stack overflow to
ensure that host functions always have a reasonable amount of stack to
run on. This fixes an issue where we might longjmp out of a host
function, skipping destructors.
Lots of various odds and ends end up falling out in this commit once the
two goals above were implemented. The strategy for implementing this was
also lifted from Spidermonkey and existing functionality inside of
Cranelift. I've tried to write up thorough documentation of how this all
works in `crates/environ/src/cranelift.rs` where gnarly-ish bits are.
A brief summary of how this works is that each function and each loop
header now checks to see if they're interrupted. Interrupts and the
stack overflow check are actually folded into one now, where function
headers check to see if they've run out of stack and the sentinel value
used to indicate an interrupt, checked in loop headers, tricks functions
into thinking they're out of stack. An interrupt is basically just
writing a value to a location which is read by JIT code.
When interrupts are delivered and what triggers them has been left up to
embedders of the `wasmtime` crate. The `wasmtime::Store` type has a
method to acquire an `InterruptHandle`, where `InterruptHandle` is a
`Send` and `Sync` type which can travel to other threads (or perhaps
even a signal handler) to get notified from. It's intended that this
provides a good degree of flexibility when interrupting wasm code. Note
though that this does have a large caveat where interrupts don't work
when you're interrupting host code, so if you've got a host import
blocking for a long time an interrupt won't actually be received until
the wasm starts running again.
Some fallout included from this change is:
* Unix signal handlers are no longer registered with `SA_ONSTACK`.
Instead they run on the native stack the thread was already using.
This is possible since stack overflow isn't handled by hitting the
guard page, but rather it's explicitly checked for in wasm now. Native
stack overflow will continue to abort the process as usual.
* Unix sigaltstack management is now no longer necessary since we don't
use it any more.
* Windows no longer has any need to reset guard pages since we no longer
try to recover from faults on guard pages.
* On all targets probestack intrinsics are disabled since we use a
different mechanism for catching stack overflow.
* The C API has been updated with interrupts handles. An example has
also been added which shows off how to interrupt a module.
Closes#139Closes#860Closes#900
* Update comment about magical interrupt value
* Store stack limit as a global value, not a closure
* Run rustfmt
* Handle review comments
* Add a comment about SA_ONSTACK
* Use `usize` for type of `INTERRUPTED`
* Parse human-readable durations
* Bring back sigaltstack handling
Allows libstd to print out stack overflow on failure still.
* Add parsing and emission of stack limit-via-preamble
* Fix new example for new apis
* Fix host segfault test in release mode
* Fix new doc example
* Add Wasmtime-specific C API functions to return errors
This commit adds new `wasmtime_*` symbols to the C API, many of which
mirror the existing counterparts in the `wasm.h` header. These APIs are
enhanced in a number of respects:
* Detailed error information is now available through a
`wasmtime_error_t`. Currently this only exposes one function which is
to extract a string version of the error.
* There is a distinction now between traps and errors during
instantiation and function calling. Traps only happen if wasm traps,
and errors can happen for things like runtime type errors when
interacting with the API.
* APIs have improved safety with respect to embedders where the lengths
of arrays are now taken as explicit parameters rather than assumed
from other parameters.
* Handle trap updates
* Update C examples
* Fix memory.c compile on MSVC
* Update test assertions
* Refactor C slightly
* Bare-bones .NET update
* Remove bogus nul handling
* Move all examples to a top-level directory
This commit moves all API examples (Rust and C) to a top-level
`examples` directory. This is intended to make it more discoverable and
conventional as to where examples are located. Additionally all examples
are now available in both Rust and C to see how to execute the example
in the language you're familiar with. The intention is that as more
languages are supported we'd add more languages as examples here too.
Each example is also accompanied by either a `*.wat` file which is
parsed as input, or a Rust project in a `wasm` folder which is compiled
as input.
A simple driver crate was also added to `crates/misc` which executes all
the examples on CI, ensuring the C and Rust examples all execute
successfully.
