From a technical perspective this all looks fine to me, thanks! For a "is this the time to do this or not" I'd defer to the wasi-nn subgroup, which I know you're intimately tied into as well and likely have a consensus before making this PR |
The wasi-nn specification has moved forward, adopting component model features such as resources. These cannot be specified and implemented using WITX, so the WITX implementation is removed, leaving the WIT implementation intact. In the future, preview1-ABI support could be re-added with a component adapter, as other WASI proposals have done.
With WITX support removed, these files no longer are needed in-tree.
The `build.rs` script was only telling Wiggle where the WITX files
lived. We do need to retain it, though, for `env!("OUT_DIR")` to still
work.

Recent discussion in the wasi-nn proposal (see [wasi-nn#59], e.g.) has concluded that the right approach for representing wasi-nn "things" (tensors, graph, etc.) is with a component model _resource_. This sweeping change brings Wasmtime's implementation in line with that decision. Initially I had structured this PR to remove all of the WITX-based implementation (#8530). But, after consulting in a Zulip [thread] on what other WASI proposals aim to do, this PR pivoted to support _both_` the WITX-based and WIT-based ABIs (e.g., preview1 era versus preview2, component model era). What is clear is that the WITX-based specification will remain "frozen in time" while the WIT-based implementation moves forward. What that means for this PR is a "split world" paradigm. In many places, we have to distinguish between the `wit` and `witx` versions of the same thing. This change isn't the end state yet: it's a big step forward towards bringing Wasmtime back in line with the WIT spec but, despite my best efforts, doesn't fully fix all the TODOs left behind over several years of development. I have, however, taken the liberty to refactor and fix various parts as I came across them (e.g., the ONNX backend). I plan to continue working on this in future PRs to figure out a good error paradigm (the current one is too wordy) and device residence.

Instead, `WasiNnView` is now a `struct` containing the mutable references it needs to make things work. This unwraps one complex layer of abstraction, though it does have the downside that it complicates CLI code to split borrows of `Host`. * Temporarily disable WIT check * Refactor errors to use `trappable_error_type` This change simplifies the return types of the host implementations of the WIT-based wasi-nn. There is more work to be done with errors, e.g., to catch up with the upstream decision to return errors as resources. But this is better than the previous mess.

This is a relatively drastic change to remove all the preview1, WITX-based support from Wasmtime's wasi-nn implementation. This has ramifications:
bench-apilearns how to handle componentswasi-nnbindings crate is no longer usable with Wasmtime (it only understands the preview1 ABI)examplesare left for a later refactor)Why this change, then? The WebAssembly specification has pushed ahead, defining new functionality that depends on component model features (e.g., resources). So far, the
wasmtime-wasi-nnhas had its preview1- and preview2-ABI implementations coexisting side by side,wit.rsandwitx.rs. This was only possible because the WIT and WITX definitions were roughly similar. But I plan to update the Wasmtime implementation to support the new spec changes, which means the older preview1-ABI WITX code would immediately be out of date. And the differences between the updated WIT code and the old WITX code would only grow over time.
