send_recv_slice
, which is used to allow the host to define "custom syscalls" has a bug which means that it only works when the generic typeU
isu8
. This is because the host returns to the guest a length for how many bytes it will send to the guest on the next call. The guest code currently interprets this number of bytes to be a number of elements of typeU
. So whenmem::size_of::<U> != 1
, the length will be incorrect and the second read will fail.
