FreeBSD arm64/aarch64 support

[nunotexbsd]

Feature

Add FreeBSD support on arm64/aarch64

Implementation

Add to https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/blob/main/crates/runtime/src/traphandlers/unix.rs

 } else if #[cfg(all(target_os = "freebsd", target_arch = "aarch64"))] {
                    pc = context.uc_mcontext.mc_gpregs.gp_elr as usize;
                    sp = context.uc_mcontext.mc_gpregs.gp_sp as usize;

I take this code from https://github.com/wasmerio/wasmer/blob/dcfdea76999a/lib/vm/src/trap/traphandlers.rs#L302-L304 but don't know if some change needs to be made.

This is not currently a supported platform but if you'd like to send a PR to update the code it would be appreciated!

@alexcrichton

Nice I will do that. Soon I will have arm64 hardware to further tests instead on relying on freebsd build servers.

Thanks

We probably also need to update the wasmtime-jit-icache-coherence crate.

I looked into this a little bit in #5323 but it looks like FreeBSD doesn't yet support the membarrier interface. But perhaps there is something else that we can use?

I had a look at what other JIT's are doing:

• V8 emits its own icache maintenance instructions.
• Spidermonkey uses membarriers
• Mono also emits their own icache maintenance instructions

Maybe FreeBSD has some other syscall that we can use? I'm not too familiar with it.

CC: #3310

[sec]

Just to add something, for latest relase (6.0.0), small change is need to make it compile:

} else if #[cfg(all(target_os = "freebsd", target_arch = "aarch64"))] {
    let cx = &*(cx as *const libc::mcontext_t);
    (
        cx.mc_gpregs.gp_elr as *const u8,
        cx.mc_gpregs.gp_x[29] as usize,
    )

around https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/blob/main/crates/runtime/src/traphandlers/unix.rs#L220

This make it compile, but running tests is not possible becuase of denoland/rusty_v8#1094

@sec
Thanks for testing it. I still waiting for arm64 hardware so I can't test it.
I will apply your patch and try to find someone that build and run test for me.

https://github.com/lapce/lapce , FreeBSD port, will be tested on arm64.aarch64

👋 Hey, I've tested the above patch in FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT

freebsd@generic:~ % uname -a
FreeBSD generic 14.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT #0 main-n259967-11b5b9e8a520: Sat Jan  7 18:30:37 UTC 2023     [email protected]:/usr/obj/usr/src/arm64.aarch64/sys/GENERIC arm64

cargo build and cargo run work.

I was able to run cargo test, but the tests fail with illegal instruction

Caused by:
  process didn't exit successfully: `/home/freebsd/git/wasmtime/target/debug/deps/all-619db9ec6a9e4647` (signal: 4, SIGILL: illegal instruction)

I would guess this is due to the missing icache code. The symptoms are fairly similar to what was happening in #4997 for Windows AArch64.

Edit: The cranelift test suite passes, which I wouldn't have expected 🤔 Maybe something else is going on here.

@afonso360
Thanks for do further tests.
I'm working on https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=268929 and if it succeeds, then I can start testing other ports that depends on this crate.

Hello @sec,

I have results that it builds on aarch64 and I committed your patch at https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/commit/?id=75a1d429216aa977d1bf6b1f4a9c5eb4eb474ac8

Should a upstream change be made with this patch?

error: could not compile `rustix` due to previous error

This is due to time_t not being a long on armv7. )

[sunfishcode]

I have a fix for that armv7 FreeBSD bug here; I'll do a point release of rustix and update Wasmtime.

[afonso360]

Looked into this a bit more, this branch also does the icache clearing. However I'm still getting the same error.

I'll try to track this down when I get a chance.
