[llvm-dev] [WebAssembly] lld dynamic loader

[HUDE Ghislain via llvm-dev]

Hello,

The table generated by lld (Wasm target) have a max size.

So this make impossible to add some others functions in the table .

As for the moment only one Table is available in WAsm this is the only way
to add function in a dynamic way.



Having a none static size of the table is useful for a kind dynamic
loader/inker at run-time: by adding some exported functions coming from
another modules in the table, so call_indirect can call dynamically some
function coming from another wasm module.



So I am wondering if the static size of the table have a specific goal ?

If not did you think the WASM_LIMITS_FLAG_HAS_MAX can be remove ?



https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/lld/trunk/wasm/Writer.cpp

 void Writer::createTableSection() {

..

WasmLimits Limits = {WASM_LIMITS_FLAG_HAS_MAX, TableSize, TableSize};





Thks in advance,

Ghis
