uvwasi

uvwasi implements the WASI system call API, so that WebAssembly runtimes can easily implement WASI calls. Under the hood, uvwasi leverages libuv where possible for maximum portability.

                              |

(Hence uvwasi isn't for making C-programs-that-use-libuv-APIs execute on WASI runtimes. That would either be a new platform added by libuv, or done through POSIX emulation by the Emscripten or wasi-sdk toolchains.)

Building Locally

To build with CMake:

$ cmake ../.. -DBUILD_TESTING=ON      # generate project with test
$ cmake --build .                     # build
$ ctest -C Debug --output-on-failure  # run tests

Example Usage

#include <stdlib.h>

#include "uv.h"
#include "uvwasi.h"

int main(void) {
  uvwasi_t uvwasi;
  uvwasi_options_t init_options;
  uvwasi_errno_t err;

  /* Setup the initialization options. */
  init_options.in = 0;
  init_options.out = 1;
  init_options.err = 2;

  /* Initialize the sandbox. */
  err = uvwasi_init(&uvwasi, &init_options);
  assert(err == UVWASI_ESUCCESS);

  /* TODO(cjihrig): Show an example system call or two. */

  /* Clean up resources. */
  uvwasi_destroy(&uvwasi);
  return 0;
}

API

The WASI API is versioned. This documentation is based on snapshot_1. uvwasi implements the WASI system call API with the following additions/modifications:

  • Each system call takes an additional uvwasi_t* as its first argument. The uvwasi_t is the sandbox under which system calls are issued. Each uvwasi_t can have different command line arguments, environment variables, preopened directories, file descriptor mappings, etc. This allows one controlling process to host multiple WASI applications simultaneously.
  • Each system call returns a uvwasi_errno_t. This appears to be expected of WASI system calls, but it is not explicitly part of the official API docs. This detail is explicitly documented here.
  • Additional functions and data types are provided for interacting with WASI sandboxes and the uvwasi library. These APIs are documented in the Unofficial APIs section below.

Outputs:

  • __wasi_size_t nread

    The number of bytes read.

uvwasi_fd_readdir()

Read directory entries from a directory.

When successful, the contents of the output buffer consist of a sequence of directory entries. Each directory entry consists of a uvwasi_dirent_t object, followed by uvwasi_dirent_t::d_namlen bytes holding the name of the directory entry.

This function fills the output buffer as much as possible, potentially truncating the last directory entry. This allows the caller to grow its read buffer size in case it's too small to fit a single large directory entry, or skip the oversized directory entry.

Inputs:

  • __wasi_fd_t fd

    The directory from which to read the directory entries.

  • void *buf and __wasi_size_t buf_len

    The buffer where directory entries are stored.

  • __wasi_dircookie_t cookie

    The number of bytes stored in the read buffer. If less than the size of the read buffer, the end of the directory has been reached.

uvwasi_fd_renumber()

Atomically replace a file descriptor by renumbering another file descriptor.

Due to the strong focus on thread safety, this environment does not provide a mechanism to duplicate or renumber a file descriptor to an arbitrary number, like dup2(). This would be prone to race conditions, as an actual file descriptor with the same number could be allocated by a different thread at the same time.

This function provides a way to atomically renumber file descriptors, which would disappear if dup2() were to be removed entirely.

Inputs:

uvwasi_fd_seek()

Move the offset of a file descriptor.

Note: This is similar to lseek in POSIX.

Inputs:

Outputs:

Outputs:

  • __wasi_filesize_t offset

    The current offset of the file descriptor, relative to the start of the file.

  • const char *new_path and __wasi_size_t new_path_len

    The destination path at which to create the hard link.

uvwasi_path_open()

Open a file or directory.

The returned file descriptor is not guaranteed to be the lowest-numbered file descriptor not currently open; it is randomized to prevent applications from depending on making assumptions about indexes, since this is error-prone in multi-threaded contexts. The returned file descriptor is guaranteed to be less than 231.

Note: This is similar to openat in POSIX.

Inputs:

  • __wasi_fd_t dirfd

    The working directory at which the resolution of the path starts.
