Brett Cannon (Aug 15 2024 at 18:38): Brett Cannon (Aug 15 2024 at 18:38):I currently have https://peps.python.org/pep-0011/ listing CPython's support for wasm32-wasi, but I'm starting to wonder if I should clarify it to be wasm32-wasip1? Is the association of wasm32-wasi always going to be as wasm32-wasip1? And when did the wasm32-wasip1 target become available in the WASI SDK (a quick search at https://github.com/WebAssembly/wasi-sdk/releases didn't show anything)?

Dave Bakker (badeend) (Aug 15 2024 at 18:44):To summarize:
wasm32-wasip1is an effective rename of the existingwasm32-wasitarget, freeing the target name up for an eventual WASI 1.0
Dave Bakker (badeend) (Aug 15 2024 at 18:45):To answer your question:
Is the association of
wasm32-wasialways going to be aswasm32-wasip1?
No. wasm32-wasi will eventually mean WASI1.0. At least in the Rust world.
Brett Cannon (Aug 15 2024 at 19:09):What about the WASI SDK world?
Dave Bakker (badeend) (Aug 15 2024 at 19:24):Don't know. I assume the intention is to keep them in sync.
when did the
wasm32-wasip1target become available in the WASI SDK
The earliest I can track it down is to: https://github.com/WebAssembly/wasi-libc/commit/c9c7d0616e0f7fe4d0d0fa54372b6d1f5689f91d
I'm starting to wonder if I should clarify it to be
wasm32-wasip1?
The commit above mentions "the wasm32-wasi target should transition to wasm32-wasip1", so I'd guess: Yes.
Brett Cannon (Aug 15 2024 at 23:01):Thanks for the links! That suggests wasm32-wasip1 came in as part of WASI SDK 22 which came out mid-April.
