Full Release Notes
## What's Changed - The `JSPI` setting is no longer considered experimental, and the compiler diagnostic warning has been removed. (#27559) - Added support for `epoll` (`epoll_create1`/`epoll_ctl`/`epoll_wait`/ `epoll_pwait`) on the legacy (non-WASMFS) JS filesystem, including level- and edge-triggered modes, `EPOLLONESHOT`, `EPOLLEXCLUSIVE`, `EPOLLRDHUP`, nesting, and blocking waits under `PROXY_TO_PTHREAD`, `ASYNCIFY`, and `JSPI`. (#27207) - The deprecated `LEGALIZE_JS_FFI` setting was completely removed and moved to legacy settings. This behaviour of lowering away i64 values at the Wasm bounary is still used when `WASM_BIGINT` is disabled. However disabling of `WASM_BIGINT` itself should only be needed under `-sWASM=0` (where it is automatically disabled). (#27568) - The `SOCKET_WEBRTC` setting was removed (#27367) - `WASM_BIGINT` was deprecated. BigInt integration is standard and enabled by default across all supported engines; it should now only ever be disabled implicitly when targeting JavaScript via `-sWASM=0`.
