Target configuration

Structs§

Target
This is the target that we will use for compiling the WebAssembly ModuleInfo, and then run it.
Triple
A target “triple”. Historically such things had three fields, though they’ve added additional fields over time.

Enums§

Aarch64Architecture
Architecture
The “architecture” field, which in some cases also specifies a specific subarchitecture.
BinaryFormat
The “binary format” field, which is usually omitted, and the binary format is implied by the other fields.
CallingConvention
The calling convention, which specifies things like which registers are used for passing arguments, which registers are callee-saved, and so on.
CpuFeature
The nomenclature is inspired by the cpuid crate. The list of supported features was initially retrieved from cranelift-native.
Endianness
The target memory endianness.
Environment
The “environment” field, which specifies an ABI environment on top of the operating system. In many configurations, this field is omitted, and the environment is implied by the operating system.
OperatingSystem
The “operating system” field, which sometimes implies an environment, and sometimes isn’t an actual operating system.
PointerWidth
The width of a pointer (in the default address space).
Vendor
The “vendor” field, which in practice is little more than an arbitrary modifier.
