wasm-lld: set stack size to 1MB by default#12589
Conversation
Regardless of the build mode (build-exe, build-lib), always set the default stack size to 1MB. Previously, this was only done when using build-exe, making the inconsistancy confusing. The user can still override this behavior by providing the `--stack <size>` flag.

Are you sure this is correct here? The previous version of the code did not check for entry at all.

Yes, but a little bit above we set the entry if the user provided it. It's invalid to pass both an entry point and --no-entry. I figured I'd get that fix in while at it.

If it's invalid, should we perhaps flag it up as an error to the user?

I don't think so. --entry is given by the user, whereas --no-entry is a flag we set by default depending on the output mode. So the user never creates this invalid state, it's the Zig toolchain that should ensure it doesn't occur. Unless we disallow have an entry point in non build-exe modes, but given how Wasm runs in runtimes I think it's perfectly valid to have an environment where you do have a custom entry, but not the _start logic.

Ah right, so we don't expose --no-entry to the user? I'm curious though, what is the behavior of LLD upon receiving both flags in a single linker line, do you know perhaps?

LLD will ignore the --entry flag in such case, which may confuse the user, as they may be unaware that --no-entry was passed to lld also and therefore have their own flag ignored.

Thanks for double checking! I am fine with the current approach. In the future though, I wonder if we should perhaps make it a hard error. Food for thought!
