# Feature to add after v.1 | ||
|
||
These are features that make sense in the context of the | ||
[high-level goals](HighLevelGoals.md) of WebAssembly but are not considered part of the | ||
[Minimum Viable Product](V1.md) or the [essential post-v.1 feature set](EssentialPostV1Features.md) | ||
which are expected to be standardized immediately after v.1. | ||
|
||
## Dynamic loading | ||
* Both load-time and run-time. | ||
* TODO | ||
|
||
## Finer-grained control over memory | ||
* mmap of File, madvise(MADV_DONTNEED), ... | ||
* TODO | ||
|
||
## GC/DOM Integration | ||
* Access to certain kinds of GC things from variables/arguments/expressions | ||
* Ability to GC-allocate certain kinds of GC things | ||
* Initially, things with fixed structure: | ||
* JS strings | ||
* JS functions (as callable closures) | ||
* [ES6 typed objects](https://github.com/nikomatsakis/typed-objects-explainer/) | ||
* DOM objects via WebIDL | ||
* Perhaps a rooting API for safe reference from the linear address space | ||
* TODO | ||
|
||
## Support for Just-in-Time Compilation | ||
* Finer-grained dynamic linking | ||
* Safe patching (of immediates, branch targets, ...) | ||
* TODO | ||
|
||
## Proper Tail Calls | ||
* TODO | ||
|
||
## Asynchronous Signals | ||
* TODO | ||

||
## Non-fixed-width SIMD | ||
* TODO | ||

## Operations which may not work the same on all platforms | ||
* FMA, reciprocal sqrt approximate, fp16 | ||
* TODO |
