This project does not currently provide the comprehensive file system security properties provided by some WASI runtimes. Full support for secure file system sandboxing may or may not be implemented in future. In the mean time, do not rely on it to run untrusted code.
uvwasi
implements the WASI system call API, so that WebAssembly
runtimes can easily implement WASI calls. Under the hood, uvwasi
leverages libuv where possible for maximum portability.

(Hence uvwasi isn't for making C-programs-that-use-libuv-APIs execute on WASI runtimes. That would either be a new platform added by libuv, or done through POSIX emulation by the Emscripten or wasi-sdk toolchains.)

The WASI API is versioned. This documentation is based on the WASI preview 1
snapshot. uvwasi
implements the WASI system call API with the following
additions/modifications:
- Each system call takes an additional
uvwasi_t*
as its first argument. Theuvwasi_t
is the sandbox under which system calls are issued. Eachuvwasi_t
can have different command line arguments, environment variables, preopened directories, file descriptor mappings, etc. This allows one controlling process to host multiple WASI applications simultaneously. - Each system call returns a
uvwasi_errno_t
. This appears to be expected of WASI system calls, but it is not explicitly part of the official API docs. This detail is explicitly documented here. - Additional functions and data types are provided for interacting with WASI
sandboxes and the
uvwasi
library. These APIs are documented in the Unofficial APIs section below.
This section contains data types and functions for working with uvwasi
. They
are not part of the official WASI API, but are used to embed uvwasi

bytes
holding the name of the directory entry.

The number of bytes stored in the read buffer. If less than the size of the read buffer, the end of the directory has been reached.
Atomically replace a file descriptor by renumbering another file descriptor.
Due to the strong focus on thread safety, this environment does not provide a mechanism to duplicate or renumber a file descriptor to an arbitrary number, like dup2(). This would be prone to race conditions, as an actual file descriptor with the same number could be allocated by a different thread at the same time.
This function provides a way to atomically renumber file descriptors, which would disappear if dup2() were to be removed entirely.
Inputs:

To do a release complete the following steps:
- Look at the list of changes - https://github.com/nodejs/uvwasi/commits/main.
- Put together a list of notable changes. See https://github.com/nodejs/uvwasi/releases/tag/v0.0.14 or any of the other releases for example. Use that list in the release commit, the GitHub release, and the PR to update uvwasi in Node.js (or any other projects where you update it)
- Update the version in the CMake file. Specifically: https://github.com/nodejs/uvwasi/blob/main/CMakeLists.txt#L5
- Create a release commit. This should just involve changing one line and adding the notable changes. See https://github.com/nodejs/uvwasi/commit/6ad5fc996420d0e4e75983ce3deb65f327321f33 as an example.
- PR the release commit. Once it lands, create a GitHub release with
the same notable changes. When doing the GitHub release you will need to select
Choose a tag
and type in the new tag. That should result inCreate new tag: vX.Y.Z on publish
where vX.Y.Z matches the tag you specified. - Update uvwasi in Node.js or any projects you want to update - there are several other projects that use uvwasi.
We support fuzzing by way of ClusterFuzzLite, which is run automatically against pull requests. You can run these fuzzers locally with the OSS-Fuzz fuzzing infrastructure, using the following steps:
git clone https://github.com/google/oss-fuzz
git clone https://github.com/nodejs/uvwasi
cd uvwasi
# Build the fuzzers in .clusterfuzzlite
python3 ../oss-fuzz/infra/helper.py build_fuzzers --external $PWD
# Run the fuzzer for 10 seconds
