@cindex notes for WebAssembly
|
|
|
|
While WebAssembly provides its own module format for executables, this
|
|
documentation describes how to use @code{@value{AS}} to produce
|
|
intermediate ELF object format files.
|
|
|
|
@node WebAssembly-Syntax
|
|
@section Syntax
|
|
@cindex WebAssembly Syntax
|
|
The assembler syntax directly encodes sequences of opcodes as defined
|
|
in the WebAssembly binary encoding specification at
|
|
https://github.com/webassembly/spec/BinaryEncoding.md. Structured
|
|
sexp-style expressions are not supported as input.

@subsection Special Characters
|
|
|
|
@cindex line comment character, WebAssembly
|
|
@cindex WebAssembly line comment character
|
|
@samp{#} and @samp{;} are the line comment characters. Note that if
|
|
@samp{#} is the first character on a line then it can also be a
|
|
logical line number directive (@pxref{Comments}) or a preprocessor
|
|
control command (@pxref{Preprocessing}).
|
|
|
|
@node WebAssembly-Relocs
|
|
@subsection Relocations
|
|
@cindex WebAssembly relocations
|
|
@cindex relocations, WebAssembly
|
|
|
|
Special relocations are available by using the @samp{@@@var{plt}},
|
|
@samp{@@@var{got}}, or @samp{@@@var{got}} suffixes after a constant
|
|
expression, which correspond to the R_ASMJS_LEB128_PLT,
|
|
R_ASMJS_LEB128_GOT, and R_ASMJS_LEB128_GOT_CODE relocations,
|
|
respectively.
|
|
|
|
The @samp{@@@var{plt}} suffix is followed by a symbol name in braces;
|
|
the symbol value is used to determine the function signature for which
|
|
a PLT stub is generated. Currently, the symbol @emph{name} is parsed
|
|
from its last @samp{F} character to determine the argument count of
|
|
the function, which is also necessary for generating a PLT stub.
|
|
|
|
@node WebAssembly-Signatures
|
|
@subsection Signatures
|
|
@cindex WebAssembly signatures
|
|
@cindex signatures, WebAssembly
|
|
|
|
Function signatures are specified with the @code{signature}
|
|
pseudo-opcode, followed by a simple function signature imitating a
|
|
C++-mangled function type: @code{F} followed by an optional @code{v},
|
|
then a sequence of @code{i}, @code{l}, @code{f}, and @code{d}
|
|
characters to mark i32, i64, f32, and f64 parameters, respectively;
|
|
followed by a final @code{E} to mark the end of the function
|
|
signature.
|
|
|
|
@node WebAssembly-Floating-Point
|
|
@section Floating Point
|
|
@cindex floating point, WebAssembly (@sc{ieee})
|
|
@cindex WebAssembly floating point (@sc{ieee})
|
|
WebAssembly uses little-endian @sc{ieee} floating-point numbers.
|
|
|
|
@node WebAssembly-Opcodes
|
|
@section Regular Opcodes
|
|
@cindex opcodes, WebAssembly
|
|
@cindex WebAssembly opcodes
|
|
Ordinary instructions are encoded with the WebAssembly mnemonics as
|
|
listed at:
|
|
@url{https://github.com/WebAssembly/design/blob/master/BinaryEncoding.md}.
|
|
|
|
Opcodes are written directly in the order in which they are encoded,
|
|
without going through an intermediate sexp-style expression as in the
|
|
@code{was} format.
|
|
|
|
For ``typed'' opcodes (block, if, etc.), the type of the block is
|
|
specified in square brackets following the opcode: @code{if[i]},
|
|
@code{if[]}.
|
|

@section WebAssembly Module Layout
|
|
@cindex module layout, WebAssembly
|
|
@cindex WebAssembly module layout
|
|
@code{@value{AS}} will only produce ELF output, not a valid
|
|
WebAssembly module. It is possible to make @code{@value{AS}} produce
|
|
output in a single ELF section which becomes a valid WebAssembly
|
|
module, but a linker script to do so may be preferrable, as it doesn't
|
|
require running the entire module through the assembler at once.
