This commit migrates all non-mutable slices incoming into Rust to use
the standard `AllocCopy` binding instead of using a custom `Slice`
binding defined by `wasm-bindgen`. This is done by freeing the memory
from Rust rather than freeing the memory from JS. We can't do this for
mutable slices yet but otherwise this should be working well!
We don't actually need this since we can simply pass in a number like 8
for the return pointer all the time. There's no need to allocate more
space in static data for a return pointer tha may not even get used!
This was used oh-so-long ago but hasn't been used in a very long time
since then. It's served no purpose for a very long time now and I don't
think we have a plan for giving it a purpose any time soon, so let's
remove it.
Instead of allocating space on the stack and returning a pointer we
should be able to use a single global memory location to communicate
this error payload information. This shouldn't run into any reentrancy
issues since it's only stored just before returning to wasm and it's
always read just after returning from wasm.
This allows using WebIDL bindings types to describe both of them instead
of having a custom ABI, allowing for more direct and rich bindings
eventually!
* Catch all closures by walking all `Descriptor` values and looking for
either `Function` or `Closure`.
* Update the correct arguments for wasm by ensuring that the closure
modifications skip the first two arguments.
This commit starts the `wasm-bindgen` CLI tool down the road to being a
true polyfill for WebIDL bindings. This refactor is probably the first
of a few, but is hopefully the largest and most sprawling and everything
will be a bit more targeted from here on out.
The goal of this refactoring is to separate out the massive
`crates/cli-support/src/js/mod.rs` into a number of separate pieces of
functionality. It currently takes care of basically everything
including:
* Binding intrinsics
* Handling anyref transformations
* Generating all JS for imports/exports
* All the logic for how to import and how to name imports
* Execution and management of wasm-bindgen closures
Many of these are separable concerns and most overlap with WebIDL
bindings. The internal refactoring here is intended to make it more
clear who's responsible for what as well as making some existing
operations much more straightforward. At a high-level, the following
changes are done:
1. A `src/webidl.rs` module is introduced. The purpose of this module is
to take all of the raw wasm-bindgen custom sections from the module
and transform them into a WebIDL bindings section.
This module has a placeholder `WebidlCustomSection` which is nowhere
near the actual custom section but if you squint is in theory very
similar. It's hoped that this will eventually become the true WebIDL
custom section, currently being developed in an external crate.
Currently, however, the WebIDL bindings custom section only covers a
subset of the functionality we export to wasm-bindgen users. To avoid
leaving them high and dry this module also contains an auxiliary
custom section named `WasmBindgenAux`. This custom section isn't
intended to have a binary format, but is intended to represent a
theoretical custom section necessary to couple with WebIDL bindings to
achieve all our desired functionality in `wasm-bindgen`. It'll never
be standardized, but it'll also never be serialized :)
2. The `src/webidl.rs` module now takes over quite a bit of
functionality from `src/js/mod.rs`. Namely it handles synthesis of an
`export_map` and an `import_map` mapping export/import IDs to exactly
what's expected to be hooked up there. This does not include type
information (as that's in the bindings section) but rather includes
things like "this is the method of class A" or "this import is from
module `foo`" and things like that. These could arguably be subsumed
by future JS features as well, but that's for another time!
3. All handling of wasm-bindgen "descriptor functions" now happens in a
dedicated `src/descriptors.rs` module. The output of this module is
its own custom section (intended to be immediately consumed by the
WebIDL module) which is in theory what we want to ourselves emit one
day but rustc isn't capable of doing so right now.
4. Invocations and generations of imports are completely overhauled.
Using the `import_map` generated in the WebIDL step all imports are
now handled much more precisely in one location rather than
haphazardly throughout the module. This means we have precise
information about each import of the module and we only modify
exactly what we're looking at. This also vastly simplifies intrinsic
generation since it's all simply a codegen part of the `rust2js.rs`
module now.
5. Handling of direct imports which don't have a JS shim generated is
slightly different from before and is intended to be
future-compatible with WebIDL bindings in its full glory, but we'll
need to update it to handle cases for constructors and method calls
eventually as well.
6. Intrinsic definitions now live in their own file (`src/intrinsic.rs`)
and have a separated definition for their symbol name and signature.
The actual implementation of each intrinsic lives in `rust2js.rs`
There's a number of TODO items to finish before this merges. This
includes reimplementing the anyref pass and actually implementing import
maps for other targets. Those will come soon in follow-up commits, but
the entire `tests/wasm/main.rs` suite is currently passing and this
seems like a good checkpoint.
This commit updates the drop glue generated for closures to simply
ignore null pointers. The drop glue can be called in erroneous
situations such as when a closure is invoked after it's been destroyed.
In these cases we don't want to segfault and/or corrupt memory but
instead let the normal error message from the invoke glue continue to
get propagated.
Closes#1526
This commit fixes an issue where bindings for
`__wbindgen_object_drop_ref` are generated even if the function isn't
actually used by the final wasm file. This is currently due to the fact
that we run gc passes pretty late in wasm-bindgen and one of the
intrinsics that ended up getting gc'd referenced the
`__wbindgen_object_drop_ref` intrinsic function.
The fix here is somewhat naive by just updating the intrinsic to not
actually use `__wbindgen_object_drop_ref`. This may not be a long-term
solution but it should be good enough for now at least.
This commit adds an intrinsics to the `wasm_bindgen` crate which
accesses the `WebAssembly.Table` which is the function table of the
module. Eventually the thinking is that a module would import its own
function table via native wasm functionality (via `anyref` and such),
but until that's implemented let's add a binding for it ourselves!
Closes#1427
This commit aims to address #1348 via a number of strategies:
* Documentation is updated to warn about UTF-16 vs UTF-8 problems
between JS and Rust. Notably documenting that `as_string` and handling
of arguments is lossy when there are lone surrogates.
* A `JsString::is_valid_utf16` method was added to test whether
`as_string` is lossless or not.
The intention is that most default behavior of `wasm-bindgen` will
remain, but where necessary bindings will use `JsString` instead of
`str`/`String` and will manually check for `is_valid_utf16` as
necessary. It's also hypothesized that this is relatively rare and not
too performance critical, so an optimized intrinsic for `is_valid_utf16`
is not yet provided.
Closes#1348
This is work towards #1399, although it's just for one-argument closures
where the first argument is a reference. No other closures with
references in argument position are supported yet
Most of the CLI crates were already in the 2018 edition, and it turns
out that one of the macro crates was already in the 2018 edition so we
may as well move everything to the 2018 edition!
Always nice to remove those `extern crate` statements nowadays!
This commit also does a `cargo fmt --all` to make sure we're conforming
with style again.
This commit deprecates the `--web`, `--no-modules`, and `--nodejs` flags
in favor of one `--target` flag. The motivation for this commit is to be
consistent between `wasm-bindgen` and `wasm-pack` so documentation for
one is applicable for the other (so we don't have to document everywhere
what the translation is between flags). Additionally this should make it
a bit easier to add new targets (if necessary) in the future as it won't
add to the proliferation of flags.
For now the old flags (like `--web`) continue to be accepted, but
they'll be removed during the next set of breaking changes for
`wasm-bindgen`.
This commit adds support for the recently implemented standard of
[`TextEncoder#encodeInto`][standard]. This new function is a "bring your
own buffer" style function where we can avoid an intermediate allocation
and copy by encoding strings directly into wasm's memory.
Currently we feature-detect whether `encodeInto` exists as it is only
implemented in recent browsers and not in all browsers. Additionally
this commit emits the binding using `encodeInto` by default, but this
requires `realloc` functionality to be exposed by the wasm module.
Measured locally an empty binary which takes `&str` previously took
7.6k, but after this commit takes 8.7k due to the extra code needed for
`realloc`.

This commit adds experimental support to `wasm-bindgen` to emit and
leverage the `anyref` native wasm type. This native type is still in a
proposal status (the reference-types proposal). The intention of
`anyref` is to be able to directly hold JS values in wasm and pass the
to imported functions, namely to empower eventual host bindings (now
renamed WebIDL bindings) integration where we can skip JS shims
altogether for many imports.
This commit doesn't actually affect wasm-bindgen's behavior at all
as-is, but rather this support requires an opt-in env var to be
configured. Once the support is stable in browsers it's intended that
this will add a CLI switch for turning on this support, eventually
defaulting it to `true` in the far future.
The basic strategy here is to take the `stack` and `slab` globals in the
generated JS glue and move them into wasm using a table. This new table
in wasm is managed at the fringes via injected shims. At
`wasm-bindgen`-time the CLI will rewrite exports and imports with shims
that actually use `anyref` if needed, performing loads/stores inside the
wasm module instead of externally in the wasm module.
This should provide a boost over what we have today, but it's not a
fantastic strategy long term. We have a more grand vision for `anyref`
being a first-class type in the language, but that's on a much longer
horizon and this is currently thought to be the best we can do in terms
of integration in the near future.
The stack/heap JS tables are combined into one wasm table. The stack
starts at the end of the table and grows down with a stack pointer (also
injected). The heap starts at the end and grows up (state managed in
linear memory). The anyref transformation here will hook up various
intrinsics in wasm-bindgen to the runtime functionality if the anyref
supoprt is enabled.
The main tricky treatment here was applied to closures, where we need JS
to use a different function pointer than the one Rust gives it to use a
JS function pointer empowered with anyref. This works by switching up a
bit how descriptors work, embedding the shims to call inside descriptors
rather than communicated at runtime. This means that we're accessing
constant values in the generated JS and we can just update the constant
value accessed.
