Modules¶
Indices¶
Indices can be given either in raw numeric form or as symbolic identifiers when bound by a respective construct. Such identifiers are looked up in the suitable space of the identifier context \(I\).

\end{array}\end{split}\]
Type Uses¶
A type use is a reference to a function type definition. It may optionally be augmented by explicit inlined parameter and result declarations. That allows binding symbolic identifiers to name the local indices of parameters. If inline declarations are given, then their types must match the referenced function type.
\[\begin{split}\begin{array}{llcllll}
\def\mathdef3587#1{{}}\mathdef3587{type use} & \href{../text/modules.html#text-typeuse}{\mathtt{typeuse}}_I &::=&
\def\mathdef3631#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3631{(}~\def\mathdef3632#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3632{type}~~x{:}\href{../text/modules.html#text-typeidx}{\mathtt{typeidx}}_I~\def\mathdef3633#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3633{)}
\quad\Rightarrow\quad x, I' \\ &&& \qquad
(\mathrel{\mbox{if}} \begin{array}[t]{@{}l@{}}
I.\href{../text/conventions.html#text-context}{\mathsf{typedefs}}[x] = \href{../syntax/types.html#syntax-subtype}{\mathsf{sub}}~\href{../syntax/types.html#syntax-subtype}{\mathsf{final}}~(\href{../syntax/types.html#syntax-comptype}{\mathsf{func}}~[t_1^n] \href{../syntax/types.html#syntax-functype}{\rightarrow} [t_2^\ast]) \wedge
I' = \{\href{../text/conventions.html#text-context}{\mathsf{locals}}~(\epsilon)^n\}) \\
\end{array} \\[1ex] &&|&
\def\mathdef3634#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3634{(}~\def\mathdef3635#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3635{type}~~x{:}\href{../text/modules.html#text-typeidx}{\mathtt{typeidx}}_I~\def\mathdef3636#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3636{)}
~~(t_1{:}\href{../text/types.html#text-functype}{\mathtt{param}})^\ast~~(t_2{:}\href{../text/types.html#text-functype}{\mathtt{result}})^\ast
\quad\Rightarrow\quad x, I' \\ &&& \qquad
(\mathrel{\mbox{if}} \begin{array}[t]{@{}l@{}}
I.\href{../text/conventions.html#text-context}{\mathsf{typedefs}}[x] = \href{../syntax/types.html#syntax-subtype}{\mathsf{sub}}~\href{../syntax/types.html#syntax-subtype}{\mathsf{final}}~(\href{../syntax/types.html#syntax-comptype}{\mathsf{func}}~[t_1^\ast] \href{../syntax/types.html#syntax-functype}{\rightarrow} [t_2^\ast]) \wedge
I' = \{\href{../text/conventions.html#text-context}{\mathsf{locals}}~\mathrm{id}(\href{../text/types.html#text-functype}{\mathtt{param}})^\ast\} ~\href{../text/conventions.html#text-context-wf}{\mbox{well-formed}}) \\
\end{array} \\
\end{array}\end{split}\]
Note
If inline declarations are given, their types must be syntactically equal to the types from the indexed definition; possible type substitutions from other definitions that might make them equal are not taken into account. This is to simplify syntactic pre-processing.
The synthesized attribute of a \(\href{../text/modules.html#text-typeuse}{\mathtt{typeuse}}\) is a pair consisting of both the used type index and the local identifier context containing possible parameter identifiers. The following auxiliary function extracts optional identifiers from parameters:
\[\begin{split}\begin{array}{lcl@{\qquad\qquad}l}
\mathrm{id}(\def\mathdef3637#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3637{(}~\def\mathdef3638#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3638{param}~\href{../text/values.html#text-id}{\mathtt{id}}^?~\dots~\def\mathdef3639#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3639{)}) &=& \href{../text/values.html#text-id}{\mathtt{id}}^? \\
\end{array}\end{split}\]
Note
Both productions overlap for the case that the function type is \([] \href{../syntax/types.html#syntax-functype}{\rightarrow} []\). However, in that case, they also produce the same results, so that the choice is immaterial.
The well-formedness condition on \(I'\) ensures that the parameters do not contain duplicate identifiers.
Abbreviations¶
A \(\href{../text/modules.html#text-typeuse}{\mathtt{typeuse}}\) may also be replaced entirely by inline parameter and result declarations. In that case, a type index is automatically inserted:
\[\begin{split}\begin{array}{llclll}
\def\mathdef3587#1{{}}\mathdef3587{type use} &
(t_1{:}\href{../text/types.html#text-functype}{\mathtt{param}})^\ast~~(t_2{:}\href{../text/types.html#text-functype}{\mathtt{result}})^\ast &\equiv&
\def\mathdef3640#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3640{(}~\def\mathdef3641#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3641{type}~~x~\def\mathdef3642#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3642{)}~~\href{../text/types.html#text-functype}{\mathtt{param}}^\ast~~\href{../text/types.html#text-functype}{\mathtt{result}}^\ast \\
\end{array}\end{split}\]
where \(x\) is the smallest existing type index whose recursive type definition in the current module is of the form
\[\def\mathdef3643#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3643{(}~\def\mathdef3644#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3644{rec}~\def\mathdef3645#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3645{(}~\def\mathdef3646#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3646{type}~\def\mathdef3647#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3647{(}~\def\mathdef3648#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3648{sub}~\def\mathdef3649#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3649{final}~~\def\mathdef3650#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3650{(}~\def\mathdef3651#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3651{func}~~\href{../text/types.html#text-functype}{\mathtt{param}}^\ast~~\href{../text/types.html#text-functype}{\mathtt{result}}^\ast~\def\mathdef3652#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3652{)}~\def\mathdef3653#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3653{)}~\def\mathdef3654#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3654{)}~\def\mathdef3655#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3655{)}\]
If no such index exists, then a new recursive type of the same form is inserted at the end of the module.
Abbreviations are expanded in the order they appear, such that previously inserted type definitions are reused by consecutive expansions.
Imports¶
The descriptors in imports can bind a symbolic function, table, memory, tag, or global identifier.
\[\begin{split}\begin{array}{llclll}
\def\mathdef3587#1{{}}\mathdef3587{import} & \href{../text/modules.html#text-import}{\mathtt{import}}_I &::=&

\end{array}\end{split}\]
Abbreviations¶
As an abbreviation, imports may also be specified inline with function, table, memory, global, or tag definitions; see the respective sections.
Functions¶
Function definitions can bind a symbolic function identifier, and local identifiers for its parameters and locals.
\[\begin{split}\begin{array}{llclll}
\def\mathdef3587#1{{}}\mathdef3587{function} & \href{../text/modules.html#text-func}{\mathtt{func}}_I &::=&

\end{array}\end{split}\]
The definition of the local identifier context \(I''\) uses the following auxiliary function to extract optional identifiers from locals:
\[\begin{split}\begin{array}{lcl@{\qquad\qquad}l}
\mathrm{id}(\def\mathdef3680#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3680{(}~\def\mathdef3681#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3681{local}~\href{../text/values.html#text-id}{\mathtt{id}}^?~\dots~\def\mathdef3682#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3682{)}) &=& \href{../text/values.html#text-id}{\mathtt{id}}^? \\
\end{array}\end{split}\]
Note
The well-formedness condition on \(I''\) ensures that parameters and locals do not contain duplicate identifiers.
Abbreviations¶
Multiple anonymous locals may be combined into a single declaration:
\[\begin{split}\begin{array}{llclll}

\def\mathdef3683#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3683{(}~~\def\mathdef3684#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3684{local}~~\href{../text/types.html#text-valtype}{\mathtt{valtype}}^\ast~~\def\mathdef3685#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3685{)} &\equiv&

Exports¶
The syntax for exports mirrors their abstract syntax directly.

\end{array}\end{split}\]
Abbreviations¶
As an abbreviation, exports may also be specified inline with function, table, memory, global, or tag definitions; see the respective sections.
Start Function¶
A start function is defined in terms of its index.
\[\begin{split}\begin{array}{llclll}
\def\mathdef3587#1{{}}\mathdef3587{start function} & \href{../text/modules.html#text-start}{\mathtt{start}}_I &::=&

&\Rightarrow& \{ \href{../syntax/modules.html#syntax-start}{\mathsf{func}}~x \} \\
\end{array}\end{split}\]
Note
At most one start function may occur in a module, which is ensured by a suitable side condition on the \(\href{../text/modules.html#text-module}{\mathtt{module}}\) grammar.
Element Segments¶
Element segments allow for an optional table index to identify the table to initialize.
\[\begin{split}\begin{array}{llclll}

\quad\Rightarrow\quad x \\
\end{array}\end{split}\]
Abbreviations¶
As an abbreviation, a single instruction may occur in place of the offset of an active element segment or as an element expression:
\[\begin{split}\begin{array}{llcll}

\end{array}\end{split}\]
Also, the element list may be written as just a sequence of function indices:
\[\begin{array}{llcll}
\def\mathdef3587#1{{}}\mathdef3587{element list} &
\def\mathdef3961#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3961{func}~~\href{../text/conventions.html#text-list}{\mathtt{list}}(\href{../text/modules.html#text-funcidx}{\mathtt{funcidx}}_I) &\equiv&

\end{array}\]
A table use can be omitted, defaulting to \(\mathtt{0}\). Furthermore, for backwards compatibility with earlier versions of WebAssembly, if the table use is omitted, the \(\def\mathdef3967#1{\mbox{‘}\mathtt{#1}\mbox{’}}\mathdef3967{func}\) keyword can be omitted as well.

\end{array}\end{split}\]
As another abbreviation, element segments may also be specified inline with table definitions; see the respective section.
Data Segments¶
Data segments allow for an optional memory index to identify the memory to initialize. The data is written as a string, which may be split up into a possibly empty sequence of individual string literals.

Abbreviations¶
As an abbreviation, a single instruction may occur in place of the offset of an active data segment:
\[\begin{array}{llcll}

\end{array}\]
Also, a memory use can be omitted, defaulting to \(\mathtt{0}\).
\[\begin{split}\begin{array}{llclll}

\end{array}\end{split}\]
As another abbreviation, data segments may also be specified inline with memory definitions; see the respective section.
Modules¶
A module consists of a sequence of fields that can occur in any order. All definitions and their respective bound identifiers scope over the entire module, including the text preceding them.
A module may optionally bind an identifier that names the module. The name serves a documentary role only.
Note
Tools may include the module name in the name section of the binary format.

The following restrictions are imposed on the composition of modules: \(m_1 \href{../syntax/conventions.html#notation-compose}{\oplus} m_2\) is defined if and only if
\(m_1.\href{../syntax/modules.html#syntax-module}{\mathsf{start}} = \epsilon \vee m_2.\href{../syntax/modules.html#syntax-module}{\mathsf{start}} = \epsilon\)
\(m_1.\href{../syntax/modules.html#syntax-module}{\mathsf{funcs}} = m_1.\href{../syntax/modules.html#syntax-module}{\mathsf{tables}} = m_1.\href{../syntax/modules.html#syntax-module}{\mathsf{mems}} = m_1.\href{../syntax/modules.html#syntax-module}{\mathsf{globals}} = m_1.\href{../syntax/modules.html#syntax-module}{\mathsf{tags}} = \epsilon \vee m_2.\href{../syntax/modules.html#syntax-module}{\mathsf{imports}} = \epsilon\)
Note
The first condition ensures that there is at most one start function. The second condition enforces that all imports must occur before any regular definition of a function, table, memory, global, or tag, thereby maintaining the ordering of the respective index spaces.
The well-formedness condition on \(I\) in the grammar for \(\href{../text/modules.html#text-module}{\mathtt{module}}\) ensures that no namespace contains duplicate identifiers.
The definition of the initial identifier context \(I\) uses the following auxiliary definition which maps each relevant definition to a singular context with one (possibly empty) identifier:
