Wasmi v0.32 stable release preparations

Robbepop opened this issue · 0 comments

The following list contains the work required before we can release Wasmi v0.32:

  • Write Wasmi blog post about the new features and performance improvements.
  • Create benchmarking framework to compare Wasmi with other Wasm runtimes.
  • Rename EngineLimits to EnforcedLimits
    • These limits do not just reflect limits of the Wasmi Engine thus the current name is misleading.
    • All checks are currently not even performed in the Engine but rather in the Module. This might change later.
    • PR: #1000
  • Rename LinkerBuilder::finish method to create.
    • We are not finalizing the building process since LinkerBuilder is supposed to create multiple Linker instances thus create is the better name.
    • Maybe even introduce a LinkerBuilder::ready -> LinkerBuilderReady method to prevent misusing the LinkerBuilder type statically. Right now LinkerBuilder::{func_wrap, func_new} methods can be used after creation of a Linker but will panic and with another type we could statically enforce correct usage.
    • PR: #1001
  • Properly mirror the most recent Wasmtime with Store::{get_fuel, set_fuel}.
  • Properly mirror the most recent Wasmtime EngineWeak API.
  • Verify that function compilation fuel charging is realistic.
  • Improve Wasmtime API mirroring with minor renamings
  • Unify Wasmi workspace crate versions.
    • Makes publishing future Wasmi versions much simpler.
