v17.0.2: Release Wasmtime 17.0.2 (#8024)

17.0.2

Released 2024-02-28

Fixed

• Fix an egraph rule bug that was permitting an incorrect ireduce rewrite to
  unary and binary operations, leading to miscompilations.
  #8005

v18.0.1: Release Wasmtime 18.0.1 (#7967)

18.0.1

Released 2024-02-20.

Fixed

• Fixed a mistake in the CI release process that caused the crates.io
  publication of the 18.0.0 release to not succeed.
  #7966

v18.0.0: Release Wasmtime 18.0.0 (#7958)

18.0.0

Released 2024-02-20.

Added

• The wasmtime-c-api-impl crate is now published on crates.io.
  #7837

• A new EngineWeak type enables holding a weak pointer to an engine with the
  ability to dynamically and fallibly upgrade it to an Engine.
  #7797

• The WebAssembly tail calls proposal can now be enabled through the C API.
  #7811

• The import and export types of a Component can now be inspected at runtime.
  #7804

• New APIs/types have been added to support a faster version of looking up
  module exports without using string lookups with Module::get_export_index.
  #7828

Changed

• Owned resources represented with ResourceAny can now be passed as arguments
  to functions that require a borrow<T> parameter.
  #7783

• Generated structures from wasmtime::component::bindgen! for exported
  interfaces are now all renamed to Guest to avoid conflicting with WIT names.
  #7794

• Guest profiler output will now automatically demangle symbols.
  #7809

• The wasmtime crate now has a runtime Cargo feature which, if disabled,
  enables building Wasmtime with only the ability to compile WebAssembly
  modules. This enables compiling Wasmtime's compilation infrastructure, for
  example, to WebAssembly itself.
  #7766

• Support for the old wasi-common crate and the original implementation of
  "WASIp1" aka "preview1" is being deprecated in the wasmtime-wasi crate.
  Users should migrate to the wasmtime_wasi::preview2 implementation, which
  supports both WASIp1 and WASIp2, as in the next release the
  wasi-common-based reexports of wasmtime-wasi will be deleted.
  #7881

v17.0.1: Release Wasmtime 17.0.1 (#7890)

17.0.1

  that shouldn't be duplicated to be chosen in a context that would make them
  invalid.
  #7859
  #7879
• Fix an egraph rule bug that was allowing unconstrained recursion through the
  DFG to run away on large functions.
  #7882

v17.0.0: Release Wasmtime 17.0.0 (#7800)

17.0.0

Released 2024-01-25

The major feature of this release is that the WASI support in Wasmtime is now
considered stable and flagged at an 0.2.0 version approved by the WASI subgroup.
The release was delayed a few days to hold off until the WASI subgroup voted to
approve the CLI and HTTP worlds and they're now on-by-default! Additionally the
component model is now enabled by default in Wasmtime, for example an opt-in
flag is no longer required on the CLI. Note that embeddings still must opt-in to
using the component model by using the wasmtime::component module.

Added

• Cranelift optimizations have been added for "3-way comparisons", or Ord::cmp
  in Rust or <=> in C++.
  #7636
  #7702

• Components now use Wasmtime's compilation cache used for core wasm modules by
  default.
  #7649

• The Resource<T> and ResourceAny types can now be converted between each
  other.
  #7649
  #7712

Changed

• Minor changes have been made to a number of WITs as they progressed to their
  official 0.2.0 status.
  #7625
  #7640
  #7690
  #7781
  #7817

• The component model is now enabled by default.
  #7821

• The implementation of memory.atomic.{wait,notify} has been rewritten.
  #7629

• The wasmtime_wasi::preview2::Table type has been moved to
  wasmtime::component::ResourceTable.
  #7655

• Creating a UDP stream now validates the address being sent to.
  #7648

• Defining resource types in Linker<T> now takes the type to define as a
  runtime parameter.
  #7680

• Socket address checks can now be performed dynamically at runtime.
  #7662

• Wasmtime and Cranelift's MSRV is now 1.73.0.
  #7739

Fixed

• Bindings for WIT APIs where interfaces have multiple versions are now fixed by
  putting the version in the generated binding names.
  #7656

• The preview1 fd_{read,write} APIs are now fixed when a shared memory is
  used.
  #7755

• The preview1 fd_{read,write} APIs no longer leak an intermediate stream
  created.
  #7819

v16.0.0: Release Wasmtime 16.0.0 (#7709)

Added

• Add yielding support in wasmtime_store_epoch_deadline_callback in the C API.

  #7597

• The wasmtime --version CLI output will now include date/commit information
  when Wasmtime is built from a git checkout.
  #7610

Fixed

• MPK support is now explicitly disabled on AMD-based CPUs since the
  implementation does not currently support it.
  #7513

• Initialization of a WebAssembly data segment with a negative offset is fixed
  to zero-extend the offset instead of sign-extend.
  #7559

• The reported offset of O_APPEND files in preview1 has been fixed.
  #7586

• MPK support does a better job of compacting memories to minimize virtual
  memory used.
  #7622

Cranelift

• Union node bitpacking has been fixed with egraph optimizations to ensure the
  minimal cost node is selected.
  #7465

• Equivalent-cost expressions now have ties broken with expression depth in
  egraphs to prefer "shallow" expression trees.
  #7456
