elliottt opened PR #8415 from elliottt:trevor/fix-p1-fd-read-mut-borrows to bytecodealliance:main:

In the wasi-common implementation of fd_read for preview1, switch to only reading the first iovec given in a vectored read. This avoids issues with Wiggle's runtiem borrow-checker implemented in #8277, which would cause the reads to unconditionally fail when two mutable borrows were taken out on the same memory.

While it's not as efficient to perform a single read at a time, it is also valid, as read never promises to read all of the vectors provided.

alexcrichton commented on PR #8415:

I was initially confused reading over this trying to piece together how this wasn't covered by https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/pull/8353 but that was fd_pread rather than fd_read.

Mind adding a test for this? Also, can you update the filter here to be the same as https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/pull/8353 where it searches for the first non-empty buffer rather than the first buffer?

I added a test, and verified that it failed without the fix to fd_read. (It's the same as the pread/pwrite test, but using fd_seek to polyfill their behavior.)
