This change implements a new "scheduler" for WebAssembly using binaryen's asyncify transform.
This is more reliable than the current "coroutines" transform, and works with non-Go code in the call stack.
runtime (js/wasm): handle scheduler nesting
If WASM calls into JS which calls back into WASM, it is possible for the scheduler to nest.
The event from the callback must be handled immediately, so the task cannot simply be deferred to the outer scheduler.
This creates a minimal scheduler loop which is used to handle such nesting.
This commit adds object layout information to new heap allocations. It
is not yet used anywhere: the next commit will make use of it.
Object layout information will eventually be used for a (mostly) precise
garbage collector. This is what the data is made for. However, it is
also useful in the interp package which can work better if it knows the
memory layout and thus the approximate LLVM type of heap-allocated
objects.
This layout parameter is currently always nil and ignored, but will
eventually contain a pointer to a memory layout.
This commit also adds module verification to the transform tests, as I
found out that it didn't (and therefore didn't initially catch all
bugs).
This attribute is also set by Clang when it compiles C source files
(unless -fexceptions is set). The advantage is that no unwind tables are
emitted on Linux (and perhaps other systems). It also avoids
__aeabi_unwind_cpp_pr0 on ARM when using the musl libc.
This commit changes a target triple like "armv6m-none-eabi" to
"armv6m-unknown-unknow-eabi". The reason is that while the former is
correctly parsed in Clang (due to normalization), it wasn't parsed
correctly in LLVM meaning that the environment wasn't set to EABI.
This change normalizes all target triples and uses the EABI environment
(-eabi in the triple) for Cortex-M targets.
This change also drops the `--target=` flag in the target JSON files,
the flag is now added implicitly in `(*compileopts.Config).CFlags()`.
This removes some duplication in target JSON files.
Unfortunately, this change also increases code size for Cortex-M
targets. It looks like LLVM now emits calls like __aeabi_memmove instead
of memmove, which pull in slightly more code (they basically just call
the regular C functions) and the calls themself don't seem to be as
efficient as they could be. Perhaps this is a LLVM bug that will be
fixed in the future, as this is a very common occurrence.
Closure variables are allocated in a parent function and are thus never
nil. Don't do a nil check before reading or modifying the value.
This commit results in a slight reduction in code size in some test
cases: calls.go, channel.go, goroutines.go, json.go, sort.go -
presumably wherever closures are used.
Not sure why you would ever do this, but it appears to be allowed by the
Go specification and previously TinyGo would crash with an unhelpful
error message when you would do this. I don't see any practical use of
it.
The implementation simply runs the builtin directly.
This commit adds a test for both WebAssembly and Cortex-M targets (which
use a different way of goroutine lowering) to show how they lower
goroutines. It makes it easier to show how the output changes in future
commits.
