A Function Inliner for Wasmtime and Cranelift, https://fitzgen.com/2025/11/19/inliner.html.

A great article about the new function inliner inside Cranelift. The article mentions a nice algorithm to partially keep parallelism during the compilation time for the inliner (that’s the most interesting part).

#compiler #cranelift #WebAssembly

Profiled my JIT Rust aarch64 emulator:

- Around 7-8% of time is spent executing translated guest code
- #cranelift codegen takes 45.7% of time
- its register allocator, regalloc, takes an additional 19%
- Basic runtime logic such as MMU virtual address translation takes only 2% (with TLB caching)

This results in taking almost 40 seconds to boot to Linux prompt. QEMU takes a few seconds.

Replacing the JIT is tempting...

Exception handling in the Rust compiler: a blog post by @bjorn3 on support for unwinding on panics in the Cranelift backend.
A walkthrough of the implementation: https://tweedegolf.nl/en/blog/157/exception-handling-in-rustc-codegen-cranelift

#rustlang #cranelift

this I think is the final missing piece to have an entire toolchain written in Rust, others being compiler (rustc and cranelift) and platform access things (rustix and eyra/mustang)

#cranelift #rustc #rustlang

Managed to have local variables using cranelift but I hit a limitation of debuggers and DWARF and formal parameters found in registers.

I may try consider pessimising the code when enabling debug support if I don't manage to identify the call sites.

#pasko #cranelift #debugging #compilers

Woah!

(I need to improve the locations, it jumps like crazy all around the place 😅 . The garbled terminal is caused by gdb's tui not liking input / output)

I want to keep using Rust nightly + cranelift because of the faster compile times but anywhere aws-lc-rs is involved, there are build failures.

https://github.com/rust-lang/rustc_codegen_cranelift/issues/1520

Sadly have to disable it for now.

#rust #cranelift

@dan_ballard one thing that can help today with trust is looking for "cargo vet" reviews by trusted projects, this being an example https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/tree/main/supply-chain

I haven't been so excited to multiply two numbers in 20+ years.

I think I might be able to work with this.

#Cranelift

Why does #Cranelift look so nice and simple to use, what's the catch

Series on Cranelift Code Generator.
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIUa1VcxJuwlJB4ZrahFGRNGyFx-S8tzJ

Looking to do a post/talk next month for the Rust meetup on using PEG parser for a toy language (Brainfuck/Lox) and then use Cranelift to compile that.

#rust #cranelift

More hacking with cranelift.

Making better use of `Variable`s for better code generation and also extending the dump code so I can see what value maps to each source variable.

#cranelift #pascal #pasko

Nested functions like Pascal's are not in vogue these days.

#pascal #compilers #cranelift

I learned yesterday how to annotate the IR dumps so less guessing is required when looking at them now.

#cranelift #rustlang #pascal #pasko

The #cranelift backend for #rust now supports `raw-dylib` linking for #Windows https://github.com/rust-lang/rustc_codegen_cranelift/pull/1524

#RustLang

I wanted to toy with Cranelift (https://cranelift.dev/) so I gave myself an excuse to do so 😀

Still a lot of work to do but slowly being able to compile more interesting Pascal programs.

#rust #cranelift #pascal #compilers

There are many dreams in my mind floating. One of which is learning machine language of a processor and then contributing to some compiler backend like #llvm or #Cranelift.

Did you ever wanted a calculator that’s also incredibly overbuilt but jit compiles expressions into machine code for maximum calculation perf?

Yep me neither but here you go
