wasm-ld is currently unable to link a shared wasm library (generated with `wasm-ld --shared`) with .o files and produce a working executable. I'm curious if there's a fundamental reason for this, or is this simply something that wasn't needed and could be implemented if needed. I think this could be done by - Resolving "GOT.mem" and "GOT.func" imports and

Okay, so where should I send questions for WebAssembly? Is it this mailing list or a different one? I want to ask about how to compile WebAssembly modules with Clang directly, without Emscripten, for situations like what I have currently where I have a problem with generating WebAssembly and/or JavaScript glue code (I have a problem with the gen_struct_info stuff; I asked on the Emscripten

Hi llvmers, As you may know, work has been progressing on the experimental WebAssembly backend in llvm. However, there is currently not a good linking story. Most the of existing linking strategies (i.e. those in the emscripten toolchain) involve bitcode linking and whole program compilation at link time. To improve this situation I've been working on adding a wasm backend for lld. My

Can you link to docs about the wasm object format? (both relocatable and executable) Also, traditional object file linkers are primarily concerned with concatenating binary blobs with small amount of patching of said binary blobs based on computed virtual (memory) addresses. Or perhaps to put it another way, what traditional object file linkers do is construct program images meant to be mapped

Hi, Sorry if you've seen this message before on llvm.discourse.group or elsewhere -- I've been trying to get to the bottom of this for a while now and asked about this in a few different platforms before. I'm currently trying to debug a bug in a LLVM-generated Wasm code. The bug could be in the code that generates LLVM (rustc) or in the LLVM, I'm not sure yet. LLVM IR and Wasm

Using LLVM v5, my Cone compiler (https://github.com/jondgoodwin/cone) automatically directly generated all functions as named and exported for both wasm text and binary files (not using clang/lld etc, but using the API). Upgrading to LLVM v7, generated wasm object files now fail, exhibiting markedly different behavior, behavior that varies between the text and binary files. For example, the

Hi Sam, First, I want to know the symbol resolution semantics. I can imagine that that is set in stone yet, but just that you guys are still discussing what would be the best semantics or file format for the linkable wasm object file. I think by knowing more about the format and semantics, we can give you guys valuable feedback, as we've been actively working on the linker for a few years

Hello. Excuse me. Why CMakeLists.txt from llvm-3.9.1.src does not contain WebAssembly target? So, it is like set(LLVM_ALL_TARGETS AArch64 AMDGPU ARM BPF Hexagon Mips MSP430 NVPTX PowerPC Sparc SystemZ X86 XCore ) but not like set(LLVM_ALL_TARGETS AArch64 AMDGPU ARM BPF Hexagon Mips MSP430 NVPTX PowerPC Sparc SystemZ Webassembly X86

David, That's right, WebAssembly does not have a way to conditionally use a feature or even do runtime feature testing right now. It's on our roadmap of things to design and standardize, but it is still a long way off. > Another direction would be to require the features to be specified consistently for all components of the build, I guess - if that's the net effect anyway. Would

Hi, I am using LLVM as the backend in a small hobby compiler project I'm working on. I plan to support all platforms that LLVM supports (limited by my available hardware only). As far as I can tell, there are different linkers for the various host systems out there (the output of 'lld' if you invoke it on Arch Linux): lld is a generic driver. Invoke ld.lld (Unix), ld64.lld

Has anyone attempted to compile R (probably without any OS bindings) to WebAssembly / Emscripten? If so, how far did you get? (would be crazy awesome if you could get all the way to a ggplot bitmap output). If not, is this a waste of time or is there some daylight to doing this? [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

If anyone is integrating Opus audio into a web or JavaScript application, I wrote a WebAssembly Opus decoder that uses libopusfile to decode Opus files in chunks using the JavaScript Streams API. This decoder can begin decoding after receiving the Opus headers and first audio data page: https://github.com/AnthumChris/opus-stream-decoder All thoughts and contributions are welcome, and I'm

Hi llvm-dev, I recently updated the WebAssembly TargetTransformInfo to allow functions with different target feature sets to be inlined into each other, but I ran into an issue I want to get the community's opinion on. Since WebAssembly modules have to be validated before they are run, it only makes sense to talk about WebAssembly features at module granularity rather than function

I get the following message when cross compiling Opus 1.2.1 for android with clang in a standalone build.   CC       src/opus_decoder.lo src/opus_decoder.c:37:10: warning: You appear to be compiling without optimization, if so opus will be very slow.

Hi All, WebAssembly has been around for a while now, it's still being actively worked on and used. I think it's long past time we make it a normal target so that it gets tested on a regular basis. (Most recent random breakage is https://reviews.llvm.org/rL342576 which fails make check with web assembly enabled). Any objections? I'll probably do this next week unless someone raises a

As I recall, the major blocker is that R links against a number of other things (notably BLAS, pcre, etc) so while technically possible (?) I suppose, the universe of things you'd have to compile over and then get working is much larger than just the R internals. I think most people who consider this (including me years ago, as well as the poster of Gabor's message to rdevel) hit that
