@Ryan Levick (rylev) do you have the source modules here that I could play with? Either the source code or the input *.wasm core wasm as input to wit-component

view this post on Zulip Alex Crichton (Apr 19 2023 at 20:17):

hm ok I think I see the issue, and it looks like this is unrelated to wasm-tools compose but is instead a bug in wit-component which requires nested components to expose, which only wasm-tools compose builds

view this post on Zulip Alex Crichton (Apr 19 2023 at 20:25):

I think I have an idea of how to fix, but it'll have to wait until the resources PR is merged since it'll build on that.

view this post on Zulip Alex Crichton (Apr 19 2023 at 20:26):

this raw binary component will become invalid with that PR, however, but when made vaild (by re-running wit-component) the new binary should work with the future PR I have in mind

Sounds good to me. If you have the energy to write up a sentence or two with more detail on the issue I'd love to hear it (trying to solidify my understanding of the binary format), but no worries if you don't get around to it :grinning:

oh sure!

The way that wit-component works is that it walks the type information as produced by wasmparser's validation phase, notably it doesn't walk the component manually itself (that's what wasmparser does during validation). The problem with nested components, however, is that the final exported item from the outer component in your example is referring to an imported type of an inner component. This means that during wit-component's walk over the type of the component itself it never actually encountered the inner types, meaning it never registered anything for them.

The solution I have in mind is that these types are supplied when the outer component is instantiating the inner component. During this process type-substitution is already happening for resource types and I figure it can be updated to happen for normal types as well. For example if you satisfy a type import with a type, then that type you provided should be used to substitute the final type of the component.

Given this when wit-component walks over the type information it'll find that http-types, which is imported by the outer component, is the exact same type IDs that's exported by the result, meaning that it shouldn't "miss" anything due to it being internal to a component.

Or at least that's the theory! The type substitution support isn't there today in wasmparser but it's available with the resources PR, which I think should be relatively easy to piggy-back onto.

Nice. The explanation of the problem matches my mental model (which I'm very happy about). I'll check out the resources PR to see if I can grok what's happening there. The proposed solution sounds clear to me

If you've got the original source or core wasm modules I can test out a solution too

view this post on Zulip Alex Crichton (Apr 19 2023 at 21:18):

I was thinking to test out my idea but it requires a new component due to the new validation rules which make the existing one invalid

but re-running wit-component should be all that's necessary

@Alex Crichton here are the wasm components I'm trying to compose:

@Ryan Levick (rylev) do you have the pre-wit-component core wasm outputs?

view this post on Zulip Alex Crichton (Apr 19 2023 at 21:56):

those look like they're both already components

view this post on Zulip Peter Huene (Apr 19 2023 at 21:59):

If you're using cargo-component, there's no good way to tell it to not componentize the core module in-place (if you're on macOS, however, a quirk of how cargo copies rather than hardlinks the deps to the target directory will keep the module in the deps directory)

ah ok, in that case I'll keep poking, I'm trying to handwrite a minimal test case but am running into a few issues

view this post on Zulip Peter Huene (Apr 19 2023 at 22:00):

a hack would be to manually depend your project on the bindings crate and do a cargo build --target wasm32...

view this post on Zulip Peter Huene (Apr 19 2023 at 22:02):

if we might find it helpful for the future, can add a --keep-module option or something so that it preserves the core module (perhaps copies it to foo.core.wasm)

view this post on Zulip Ryan Levick (rylev) (Apr 19 2023 at 22:07):

base.wasm

Luckily I'm using macOS so the core module was in the deps folder

I don't have easy access to the adapter core module but I can get that too if it makes life easier

ok thanks! I've discovered a fuzz bug (probably should have run this sooner with this branch) which I need to bottom out and may require larger changes to fix

view this post on Zulip Alex Crichton (Apr 20 2023 at 18:17):

Ok all the fuzz issues I think are now fixed and the output of wit-component has changed even more. This additionally necessitated adding a test case which showcases the type-substitution behavior so now the type-substitution logic I was alluding to is now included in the PR.

I believe the basic tl;dr; is that your issue will be fixed with the PR as-is. I haven't fully tested though. Are you able to check out the PR and see that toolchain works for you?

view this post on Zulip Ryan Levick (rylev) (Apr 21 2023 at 15:04):

@Alex Crichton I can give it a try, but I think I'll need to update Cargo component to use your latest changes. I will try that out and let you know if everything works.

Unfortunately, I'm getting an error, but I'm unsure if it's a mistake on my end (to reproduce the set up of my original issue, I have to update wasm-tools and wit-bindgen dependencies in many places).

It would probably help if we could make validate_and_register_named_types return what is not valid instead of returning just a bool

Looks like there is a record definition for a "request" type that might not be exported?

Unfortunately it's going to take some time to update the tooling on my end to test all of this (we're on an old version of wit-bindgen and upgrading is not trivial).

view this post on Zulip Ryan Levick (rylev) (Apr 27 2023 at 10:17):

@Alex Crichton I think I'm still seeing the same issue with everything upgrade to the latest version of wasm-tools including your recently merged resources PR and including transitive wasm-tools dependencies of wit-bindgen:

  (type (;28;) (record (field "status" 26) (field "headers" 27) (field "body" 24)))
  (type (;29;) (func (param "req" 25) (result 28)))
  (alias core export 3 "inbound-http#handle-request" (core func (;54;)))
  (alias core export 3 "cabi_post_inbound-http#handle-request" (core func (;55;)))
  (func (;25;) (type 29) (canon lift (core func 54) (memory 0) (realloc 10) string-encoding=utf8 (post-return 55)))
  (component (;0;)
    (alias outer 1 29 (type (;0;)))
    (import "import-handle-request" (func (;0;) (type 0)))

The "import-handle-request" has an aliased type to a non-exported type (the record type "28"). Would you expect this to be fixed already? Perhaps I'm missing some transitive dependency on wasm-tools somewhere?

Hmm... So it does indeed look like I was missing a transitive dependency on wasm-tools somewhere. I've updated that, and now I'm running into a different issue...
