- update to version 114
  * Fix a bug where e.g. -O3 -Oz ran the -O3 with the opt levels
    of -Oz, which could inhibit inlining, for example. While this
    is a bugfix, it affects how commandline options are
    interpreted, so if you depended on the old behavior this may
    be a breaking change. That is, the old behavior made -O3 -Oz
    run the first -O3 with -Oz's opt levels, and the new behavior
    is to run -O3 with the proper (-O3) opt levels. This is a
    followup to #5333 from a previous release.  (#5787)
  * Add pass to remove Exception Handling instructions (#5770).
- includes version 113:
  * Add a `wasm-merge` tool. This is a full rewrite of the
    previous `wasm-merge` tool that was removed from the tree in
    the past. The new version is much simpler after recent
    improvements to multi-memory and multi-table. The rewrite was
    motivated by new use cases for merging modules in the context
    of WasmGC.
  * Some C and JS API functions now refer to data and element
    segments by name instead of index.
  * The `--nominal` and `--hybrid` command line options and
    related API functions have been removed. The only supported
    type system is now the standard isorecursive (i.e. hybrid)
    type system. (#5672)
- Add a "mayNotReturn" effect (#5711).
- Disable the memory64 feature in Memory64Lowering.cpp (#5679).
- Disable sign extension in SignExtLowering.cpp (#5676).

- update to version 112
  - Add AbstractTypeRefining pass (#5461)
  - Add a mechanism to skip a pass by name (#5448)
  - Add TypeMerging pass (#5321)
  - Add TypeSSA pass  (#5299)
  - Optimization sequences like `-O3 -Os` now do the expected thing and run `-O3`
    followed by `-Os`. Previously the last of them set the defaults that were used
    by all executions, so `-O3 -Os` was equivalent to `-Os -Os`. (There is no
    change to the default optimization level that other passes can see. For
    example, `--precompute-propagate -O2 -O1` will run `--precompute-propagate`
    at opt level `1`, as the global default is set to `2` and then overridden to
    `1`. The only change is that the passes run by `-O2` will actually run `-O2`
    now, while before they'd use the global default which made them do `-O1`.)
  - Add `--closed-world` flag. This enables more optimizations in GC mode as it
    lets us assume that we can change types inside the module.
  - The isorecursive WasmGC type system (i.e. --hybrid) is now the default to
    match the spec and the old default equirecursive (i.e. --structural) system
    has been removed.
  - `ref.is_func`, `ref.is_data`, and `ref.is_i31` have been removed from the C
    and JS APIs and `RefIs` has been replaced with `RefIsNull`.
  - Types `Data` and `Dataref` have been replaced with types `Struct` and
    `Structref` in the C and JS APIs.
  - `BinaryenStringNew` now takes an additional last argument, `try_`, indicating
    whether the instruction is one of `string.new_utf8_try` respectively
    `string.new_utf8_array_try`.
  - `BinaryenStringEq` now takes an additional second argument, `op`, that is
    either `BinaryenStringEqEqual()` if the instruction is `string.eq` or
    `BinaryenStringEqCompare()` if the instruction is `string.compare`.

- version v111
  - Add extra `memory64` argument for `BinaryenSetMemory` and new
    `BinaryenMemoryIs64` C-API method to determine 64-bit memory. (#4963)
  - `TypeBuilderSetSubType` now takes a supertype as the second argument.
  - `call_ref` now takes a mandatory signature type immediate.
  - If `THROW_ON_FATAL` is defined at compile-time, then fatal errors will throw a
    `std::runtime_error` instead of terminating the process. This may be used by
    embedders of Binaryen to recover from errors.
  - Implemented bottom heap types: `none`, `nofunc`, and `noextern`. RefNull
    expressions and null `Literal`s must now have type `nullref`, `nullfuncref`,
    or `nullexternref`.
  - The C-API's `BinaryenTypeI31ref` and `BinaryenTypeDataref` now return nullable
    types.
  - The `sign-extension` and `mutable-globals` features are now both enabled by
    default in all tools. This is in order to match llvm's defaults (See
    https://reviews.llvm.org/D125728).
  - Add a pass to lower sign-extension operations to MVP.

- version v110
  - Add support for non-nullable locals in wasm GC. (#4959)
  - Add support for multiple memories. (#4811)
  - Add support for the wasm Strings proposal. (see PRs with [Strings] in name)
  - Add a new flag to Directize, `--pass-arg=directize-initial-contents-immutable`
    which indicates the initial table contents are immutable. That is the case for
    LLVM, for example, and it allows us to optimize more indirect calls to direct
    ones. (#4942)
  - Change constant values of some reference types in the C and JS APIs. This is
    only observable if you hardcode specific values instead of calling the
    relevant methods (like `BinaryenTypeDataref()`). (#4755)
  - `BinaryenModulePrintStackIR`, `BinaryenModuleWriteStackIR` and
    `BinaryenModuleAllocateAndWriteStackIR` now have an extra boolean
    argument `optimize`. (#4832)
  - Remove support for the `let` instruction that has been removed from the typed
    function references spec.
  - HeapType::ext has been restored but is no longer a subtype of HeapType::any to
    match the latest updates in the GC spec. (#4898)
  - `i31ref` and `dataref` are now nullable to match the latest GC spec. (#4843)
  - Add support for `extern.externalize` and `extern.internalize`. (#4975)

version v109
  - Add Global Struct Inference pass (#4659) (#4714)
  - Restore and fix SpillPointers pass (#4570)
  - Update relaxed SIMD instructions to latest spec

version v108
  - Add CMake flag BUILD_TOOLS to control building tools (#4655)
  - Add CMake flag JS_OF_OCAML for js_of_ocaml (#4637)
  - Remove externref (#4633)

version v107
  - Update the wasm GC type section binary format (#4625, #4631)
  - Lift the restriction in liveness-traversal.h on max 65535 locals (#4567)
  - Switch to nominal fuzzing by default (#4610)
  - Refactor Feature::All to match FeatureSet.setAll() (#4557)
  - New Signature Pruning pass (#4545)
  - Add support for extended-const proposal (#4529)
  - Add BUILD_TESTS CMake option to make gtest dependency optional.
  - Updated tests to use filecheck 0.0.22 (#4537). Updating is required to
    successfully run the lit tests. This can be done with
    `pip3 install -r requirements-dev.txt`.

version v106
  - [wasm2js] Support exports of Globals (#4523)
  - MergeSimilarFunctions optimization pass (#4414)
  - Various wasm-ctor-eval improvements, including support for GC.

version v105
  - This release contains binaries for ARM64 MacOS devices (#4397)
  - Otherwise, mostly bug fixes and incremental optimization improvements.

version v104
  - Bugfixes only, release created due to incorrect github release artifacts in
    v103 release (#4398).

version v103
  - The EffectAnalyzer now takes advantage of immutability of globals. To achieve
    that it must have access to the module. That is already the case in the C++
    API, but the JS API allowed one to optionally not add a module when calling
    `getSideEffects()`. It is now mandatory to pass in the module.
  - JS and Wasm builds now emit ECMAScript modules. New usage is:
    ```js
    import Binaryen from "path/to/binaryen.js";
    const binaryen = await Binaryen();
    ...
    ```
  - CallIndirect changed from storing a Signature to storing a HeapType

version v102
  - Add `BinaryenUpdateMaps` to the C API.
  - Adds a TrapsNeverHappen mode (#4059). This has many of the benefits of
    IgnoreImplicitTraps, but can be used safely in more cases. IgnoreImplicitTraps
    is now deprecated.
  - Adds type argument for BinaryenAddTable method (#4107). For the binaryen.js api
    this parameter is optional and by default is set to funcref type.
  - Replace `BinaryenExpressionGetSideEffects`'s features parameter with a module
    parameter.
  - OptimizeInstructions now lifts identical code in `select`/`if` arms (#3828). This may cause direct `BinaryenTupleExtract(BinaryenTupleMake(...))` to [use multivalue types](https://github.com/grain-lang/grain/pull/1158).

version v101
  - `BinaryenSetFunctionTable` and `module.setFunctionTable` have been removed
    in favor of `BinaryenAddTable` and `module.addTable` respectively.
  - `BinaryenIsFunctionTableImported` is removed.
  - A new type `BinaryenElementSegmentRef` has been added to the C API with
    new apis in both C & JS:
    - `BinaryenAddActiveElementSegment`
    - `BinaryenAddPassiveElementSegment`
    - `BinaryenRemoveElementSegment`
    - `BinaryenGetElementSegment`
    - `BinaryenGetElementSegmentByIndex`
    - `BinaryenElementSegmentGetName`
    - `BinaryenElementSegmentSetName`
    - `BinaryenElementSegmentGetTable`
    - `BinaryenElementSegmentSetTable`
    - `BinayenElementSegmentIsPassive`
    - `module.addActiveElementSegment`
    - `module.addPassiveElementSegment`
    - `module.removeElementSegment`
    - `module.getElementSegment`
    - `module.getElementSegmentByIndex`
    - `module.getTableSegments`
    - `module.getNumElementSegments`
    - `binaryen.getElementSegmentInfo`
  - `BinaryenAddTable` and `module.addTable` no longer take offset and function
      names.
  - `BinaryenGetNumFunctionTableSegments` is replaced with
    `BinaryenGetNumElementSegments`.
  - `BinaryenGetFunctionTableSegmentOffset` is replaced with
    `BinaryenElementSegmentGetOffset`.
  - `BinaryenGetFunctionTableSegmentLength` is replaced with
    `BinaryenElementSegmentGetLength`.
  - `BinaryenGetFunctionTableSegmentData` is replaced with
    `BinaryenElementSegmentGetData`.
  - Boolean values in the C API now should use `bool` instead of `int`.
  - Experimental SIMD instructions have been removed and the names and opcodes of
    the standard instructions have been updated to match the final spec.

    table name:
    - `BinaryenCallIndirectGetTable`
    - `BinaryenCallIndirectSetTable`
    - JS API `CallIndirect.table`

- Declare missing wasm-split binary
- simplify and neutralize the description

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jan 18 04:30:11 UTC 2021 - Garret Wassermann <gwasser@gmail.com>

- update to v99
  * [GC] Fix parsing/printing of ref types using i31 (#3469),
    This lets us parse (ref null i31) and (ref i31) and not just i31ref.
  * It also fixes the parsing of i31ref, making it nullable for now, which we
    need to do until we support non-nullability.
  * Fix some internal handling of i31 where we had just i31ref (which meant we
    just handled the non-nullable type).
  * After fixing a bug in printing (where we didn't print out (ref null i31)
    properly), I found some a simplification, to remove TypeName.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Dec  1 06:17:51 UTC 2020 - Avindra Goolcharan <avindra@opensuse.org>

- update to v98
  * Add --fast-math mode.
  * Initial implementation of "Memory64" proposal
  * Lots of changes in support of GC proposal
- ran spec-cleaner
- create .changes for first time
- fix build

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Oct  7 05:22:51 UTC 2020 - Garret Wassermann <garret@wassiverse.com>

- updated to v97
  * Remove asm2wasm, which supported Emscripten's fastcomp backend,
    after fastcomp was removed.
  * The new feature flag --enable-anyref enables just the anyref
    type incl. basic subtyping of externref, funcref and exnref
    (if enabled).
  * Enabling the exception handling or anyref features without also
    enabling reference types is a validation error now.
  * The Host expression and its respective APIs have been refactored
    into separate MemorySize and MemoryGrow expressions to align with
    other memory instructions.
