Under the hood, `uvwasi` leverages [libuv][] where possible for maximum portability. | WebAssembly code | WebAssembly application code | | | v | WASI syscalls (inserted by compiler toolchain) | | ------------------------------+ | | v WebAssembly runtime (Node.js) | uvwasi (implementation of WASI) | | | v | libuv | | | v | platform-specific calls | *(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](https://cmake.org/): ```sh $ mkdir -p out/cmake ; cd out/cmake # create build directory $ cmake ../.. -DBUILD_TESTING=ON # generate project with test $ cmake --build . # build $ ctest -C Debug --output-on-failure # run tests ``` ## Example Usage ```c #include #include #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; init_options.fd_table_size = 3; init_options.argc = 3; init_options.argv = calloc(3, sizeof(char*)); init_options.argv[0] = "--foo=bar"; init_options.argv[1] = "-baz"; init_options.argv[2] = "100"; init_options.envp = NULL; init_options.preopenc = 1; init_options.preopens = calloc(1, sizeof(uvwasi_preopen_t)); init_options.preopens[0].mapped_path = "/var"; init_options.preopens[0].real_path = "."; init_options.allocator = NULL; /* 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 the WASI [preview 1][] snapshot. `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. ### Unofficial APIs This section contains data types and functions for working with `uvwasi`.

When successful, the contents of the output buffer consist of a sequence of directory entries. Each directory entry consists of a [`uvwasi_dirent_t`](#dirent) object, followed by [`uvwasi_dirent_t::d_namlen`](#dirent.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) 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](#dircookie) cookie The location within the directory to start reading.

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: - [\_\_wasi\_fd\_t](#fd) from The file descriptor to renumber. - [\_\_wasi\_fd\_t](#fd) to The file descriptor to overwrite. ### `uvwasi_fd_seek()` Move the offset of a file descriptor.

Inputs: - [\_\_wasi\_fd\_t](#fd) fd The file descriptor of the file containing the data and metadata to synchronize to disk. ### `uvwasi_fd_tell()` Return the current offset of a file descriptor. Note: This is similar to `lseek(fd, 0, SEEK_CUR)` in POSIX. Inputs: - [\_\_wasi\_fd\_t](#fd) fd The file descriptor to inspect. Outputs: - [\_\_wasi\_filesize\_t](#filesize) offset The current offset of the file descriptor, relative to the start of the file. ### `uvwasi_fd_write()` Write to a file descriptor.

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](#fd) dirfd The working directory at which the resolution of the path starts. - [\_\_wasi\_lookupflags\_t](#lookupflags) dirflags Flags determining the method of how the path is resolved. - const char \*path and \_\_wasi\_size\_t path\_len The relative path of the file or directory to open, relative to the [`dirfd`](#path_open.dirfd) directory. - [\_\_wasi\_oflags\_t](#oflags) o_flags The method by which to open the file. - [\_\_wasi\_rights\_t](#rights) fs\_rights\_base and [\_\_wasi\_rights\_t](#rights) fs\_rights\_inheriting The initial rights of the newly created file descriptor. The implementation is allowed to return a file descriptor with fewer rights than specified, if and only if those rights do not apply to the type of file being opened. The *base* rights are rights that will apply to operations using the file descriptor itself, while the *inheriting* rights are rights that apply to file descriptors derived from it. - [\_\_wasi\_fdflags\_t](#fdflags) fs\_flags The initial flags of the file descriptor. Outputs: - [\_\_wasi\_fd\_t](#fd) fd The file descriptor of the file that has been opened. ### `uvwasi_path_readlink()` Read the contents of a symbolic link.

This function blocks when the implementation is unable to immediately provide sufficient high-quality random data.

Inputs: - void \*buf and \_\_wasi\_size\_t buf\_len The buffer to fill with random data. ### `uvwasi_sched_yield()` Temporarily yield execution of the calling thread. Note: This is similar to `sched_yield` in POSIX. ### `uvwasi_sock_recv()` Receive a message from a socket.

See https://github.com/nodejs/uvwasi/releases/tag/v0.0.14 or any of the other releases for example. Use that list in the release commit, the GitHub release, and the PR to update uvwasi in Node.js (or any other projects where you update it) * Create a release commit. This should just involve changing one line and adding the notable changes. See https://github.com/nodejs/uvwasi/commit/6ad5fc996420d0e4e75983ce3deb65f327321f33 as an example. * PR the release commit. Once it lands, create a GitHub release with the same notable changes. When doing the GitHub release you will need to select `Choose a tag` and type in the new tag. That should result in ` Create new tag: vX.Y.Z on publish` where vX.Y.Z matches the tag you specified. * Update uvwasi in Node.js or any projects you want to update - there are several other projects that use uvwasi.
