Supporting additional WASM runtime

[hardiksd]

Hi, I'm new here but exploring using crun on baremetal linux embedded system. Going through the build files I figure WASM is supported experimentally and few WASM runtime options are available.

I wanted to know what would be good place to look into adding one more wasm runtime. I'm specifically interested in adding WAMR and hoping it can be added as one additional option for WASM - https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasm-micro-runtime

any pointers would be helpful.

we can add other runtimes, you can take a look at the existing ones for an idea of how it should be done.

The support for a specific handler must be specified at configure time ./configure so that it is not added by default.

Are you interested in working on it?

@hardiksd Have you looked at wasmtime (crun already has integration for wasmtime) ? or does wasmtime has higher footprint than wasm-micro-runtime ?

Thanks. Yes, I can work and enable WAMR runtime. It has much smaller footprint compared to wasmtime. I went through old commit's to see how this can be done. So I should be able to work on it.

Thanks for the pointers.
