This API provides a way to access WebAssembly [[WEBASSEMBLY]] through a bridge to explicitly construct modules from JavaScript [[ECMASCRIPT]].
<h2 id="sample">Sample API Usage</h2>
<p><em>This section is non-normative.</em></p>
Given `demo.wat` (encoded to `demo.wasm`):
```lisp
(module
(import "js" "import1" (func $i1))
(import "js" "import2" (func $i2))
(func $main (call $i1))
(start $main)
(func (export "f") (call $i2))
)
```
and the following JavaScript, run in a browser:
```javascript
var importObj = {js: {
import1: () => console.log("hello,"),
import2: () => console.log("world!")
}};
fetch('demo.wasm').then(response =>
response.arrayBuffer()
).then(buffer =>
WebAssembly.instantiate(buffer, importObj)
).then(({module, instance}) =>
instance.exports.f()
);
```
<h2 id="notation">Notation</h2>
This specification depends on the Infra Standard. [[INFRA]]
The WebAssembly [=sequence=] type is equivalent to the [=list=] type defined there; values of one
are treated as values of the other transparently.
<h2 id="webassembly-storage">Internal storage</h2>
<h3 id="store">Interaction of the WebAssembly Store with JavaScript</h3>
Note: WebAssembly semantics are defined in terms of an abstract [=store=], representing the state of the WebAssembly abstract machine. WebAssembly operations take a store and return an updated store.
Each [=agent=] has an <dfn>associated store</dfn>. When a new agent is created, its associated store is set to the result of [=store_init=]().
Note: In this specification, no WebAssembly-related objects, memory or addresses can be shared among agents in an [=agent cluster=]. In a future version of WebAssembly, this may change.
Elements of the WebAssembly store may be <dfn>identified with</dfn> JavaScript values. In particular, each WebAssembly [=memory instance=] with a corresponding {{Memory}} object is identified with a JavaScript [=Data Block=]; modifications to this Data Block are identified to updating the agent's store to a store which reflects those changes, and vice versa.
<h3 id="object-caches">WebAssembly JS Object Caches</h3>
Note: There are several WebAssembly objects that may have a corresponding JavaScript object. The correspondence is stored in a per-agent mapping from WebAssembly [=address=]es to JavaScript objects.
This mapping is used to ensure that, for a given [=agent=], there exists at most one JavaScript object for a particular WebAssembly address. However, this property does not hold for shared objects.
Each [=agent=] is associated with the following [=ordered map=]s:
* The <dfn>Memory object cache</dfn>, mapping [=memory address=]es to {{Memory}} objects.
* The <dfn>Table object cache</dfn>, mapping [=table address=]es to {{Table}} objects.
* The <dfn>Exported Function cache</dfn>, mapping [=function address=]es to [=Exported Function=] objects.
* The <dfn>Global object cache</dfn>, mapping [=global address=]es to {{Global}} objects.
* The <dfn>Extern value cache</dfn>, mapping [=extern address=]es to values.
* The <dfn>Tag object cache</dfn>, mapping [=tag addresses=] to {{Tag}} objects.
