There was a problem hiding this comment.
For JSPI, I don't think we even need the handleAsync. Though there still may be some issues with balanced runtimeKeepalivePush runtimeKeepalivePop. Maybe worth a try?

Yes, I think handleAsync is used to keep the runtime alive using runtimeKeepalivePush which I think this currently important. We can look at further simplification are followups perhaps, but for now I'd rather leave the semantics as matching.

This decorator automatically generates the Asyncify.handleAsync wrapper code. Hopefully we can transition all out `__async` functions soon and just make this the default.

Followup to emscripten-core#26019. I'm not sure about the meaning of the comment here, but `__async: auto` uses `handleAsync` under the hood and it seems to work just fine.

The only function that remains that still uses `async: true` is `emscripten_fiber_swap`, and this is because it doesn't use handleSleep or handleAsync, so is not a candidate for `async: auto`. Followup to emscripten-core#26019 and emscripten-core#26095.

Followup to emscripten-core#26019 and emscripten-core#26095. The old comment here is, I believe, no longer valid now that emscripten-core#26095 has landed.
