Details

With this patch, BigInts have support for bidirectionally converting
to 64-bit integer WebAssembly values, which appears as

  • Parameters and return values to exported WebAssembly functions
  • Parameters and return values to host functions
  • Imported and exported globals

BigInts can be read or written from WebAssembly memory using the
BigInt proposal's BigInt64Array or BigUint64Array; no additional
support is needed.
