Known issues:

  • Universal WASM format failed on macOS platforms.
    • In the current status, the universal WASM format output of the AOT compiler with the O1 or upper optimizations on MacOS platforms will cause a bus error during execution.
    • We are trying to fix this issue. For a working around, please use the --optimize=0 to set the compiler optimization level to O0 in wasmedgec CLI.
