Topic: wasmtime / PR #5147 cranelift: Add Bswap instruction (#1092)

Wasmtime GitHub notifications bot (Oct 27 2022 at 18:52):

11evan opened PR #5147 from bswap to main:

Adds Bswap to the Cranelift IR. Implements the Bswap instruction in the x64 and aarch64 codegen backends. Cranelift users can now:

builder.ins().bswap(value)

to get a native byteswap instruction.

• x64: implements the 32- and 64-bit bswap instruction, following the pattern set by similar unary instrutions (Neg and Not) - it only operates on a dst register, but is parameterized with both a src and dst which are expected to be the same register.

As x64 bswap instruction is only for 32- or 64-bit registers, the 16-bit swap is implemented as a rotate left by 8.

• aarch64: Bswap gets emitted as aarch64 rev16, rev32, or rev64 instruction as appropriate.

• s390x: Bswap not implemented

• For completeness, added bswap to the interpreter as well.

The little-endian bit literal here is kind of confusing (it's little-endian but MSB first); if we need an explanatory comment can we convert the above to a u32 (0xdac00562) or maybe just remove this comment?

No need for the blank line and comment here, I think...

Can we use RexFlags here?

I'm wondering if we should exclude 8-bit integers for this instruction. There's no sensible implementation of byte-swapping when there's only one byte.

Yeah good idea, changed to use RexFlags in update, and gave it a new emit_one_op fn to go along with the existing emit_two_op and emit_three_op

Good idea, excluded 8-bit and also 128-bit since the latter is unimplemented for now

Thanks for removing the 8-bit case! We've generally kept support for types which make sense even if there's no backend support, though, so I would put the 128-bit case back in. If nothing else, that lets us have a runtests/i128-bswap.clif that validates the interpreter (test interpret) even though we can't yet do test run on any target.

There are quite a few instructions that don't have 128-bit support on some backends yet, but it's good to have things in place to show what those instructions are expected to do for whenever somebody gets around to implementing them.

Ok sounds good! Added back 128-bit and created an interpreter test. I didn't actually implement any 128-bit swaps in the backends, left that for the future.
