Expand description

Generates an abstract sequence of instructions which represents this function being adapted as an imported function.

The instructions here, when executed, will emulate a language with interface types calling the concrete wasm implementation. The parameters for the returned instruction sequence are the language’s own interface-types parameters. One instruction in the instruction stream will be a Call which represents calling the actual raw wasm function signature.

This function is useful, for example, if you’re building a language generator for WASI bindings. This will document how to translate language-specific values into the wasm types to call a WASI function, and it will also automatically convert the results of the WASI function back to a language-specific value.
