Smooth the renaming transition of `wasm32-wasi` #695

alexcrichton · 2023-11-27T19:49:05Z

Proposal

In a previous MCP it
was approved to rename today's wasm32-wasi target to wasm32-wasi-preview1.
The proposal for doing this however was to be a mostly "cold turkey" rename. The
fallout of this is that users of the wasm32-wasi target would likely
experience breakage with most build infrastructure needing an update. The goal
of this proposal is to make this a bit less of a "cold turkey" transition and
give a larger window for users to update.

Note: This proposal does not intend to re-litigate the motivation for the
original MCP. The intent is only to smooth the transition to the desired
end-state with hopefully less hypothetical confusion along the way.

Currently there are a number of pull requests from Yosh related to renaming the
wasm32-wasi target:

These PRs have not yet been merged primarily because Yosh ran out of time to
spend on them. He's asked me and I've agree to help push these over the finish
line. In reviewing them, however, I shared concerns that some folks brought up
on the rust-lang/rust PR about the breakage this might cause. Virtually all
users of the wasm32-wasi target will experience breakage from this rename for
example because build scripts, Cargo invocations, artifact directories, etc, all
need to change. This sort of transition can also be a bit messy with breakage
landing on nightly affecting some users but not those users using stable. The
goal of this proposal is to smooth this transition over a period of time to
reduce the amount of immediate breakage. The sum of work required is basically
the same where everyone will still need to update, but there will be a window to
update rather than a requirement at a particular point in time.

Specifically this proposal is to have the following schedule and plan for
renaming the wasm32-wasi target.

Implement a wasm32-wasi-preview1 target in the Rust compiler alongside the pre-existing wasm32-wasi target.
Ship the wasm32-wasi-preview1 target via Rustup as a Tier 2 target, enabling usage on nightly Rust and eventually stable.
Let the above ride the Rust release channels to stable.
After one stable release implement a warning when wasm32-wasi is used that the target has been renamed to wasm32-wasi-preview1.
After the change from (4) reaches stable and has been there for one release, remove the wasm32-wasi target and the warning from (4).

To users this rollout will first appear in a stable release that supports both the old and the new target names. Projects can immediately start transitioning and any form of stable/beta/nightly testing will all continue to work. Three releases later stable users will start getting warnings about the wasm32-wasi target being renamed, and three releases after that the target will be removed. Projects spanning stable/beta/nightly will have a one-release window to make changes.

In a tabular form based on Rust releases the above schedule would look like:

Rust Stable	Rust Beta	Rust Nightly	Notes
N - 2	N - 1	N	add support for `wasm32-wasi-preview1` (1, 2)
N - 1	N	N + 1
N	N + 1	N + 2
N + 1	N + 2	N + 3	warn on `wasm32-wasi` (4)
N + 2	N + 3	N + 4
N + 3	N + 4	N + 5
N + 4	N + 5	N + 6	remove `wasm32-wasi` (5)
N + 5	N + 6	N + 7
N + 6	N + 7	N + 8	`wasm32-wasi` is now gone on all release channels

Note that this proposal additionally differs from the steps in the tracking issue where no work will be done on either Rustup or Cargo, instead keeping all the changes here isolated to just rustc.

Mentors or Reviewers

I plan on being on the hook for the implementation work here. I'd help take over the renaming PRs from Yosh. I'd update the renaming PR to not remove wasm32-wasi just yet but instead build both that and the new target. Additionally I'd implement the warning for using wasm32-wasi and the eventual removal of the wasm32-wasi target. If I disappear or become unresponsive I would expect that at any time the Rust project could remove the wasm32-wasi target and warning if it's present.

Process

The main points of the Major Change Process are as follows:

File an issue describing the proposal.
A compiler team member or contributor who is knowledgeable in the area can second by writing @rustbot second.
- Finding a "second" suffices for internal changes. If however, you are proposing a new public-facing feature, such as a -C flag, then full team check-off is required.
- Compiler team members can initiate a check-off via @rfcbot fcp merge on either the MCP or the PR.
Once an MCP is seconded, the Final Comment Period begins. If no objections are raised after 10 days, the MCP is considered approved.

The rename was approved already. This transition period looks very reasonable, making sure that stable and nightly can be used consistently seems important.

That MCP has been seconded and will most likely be approved in a little over a week from now. For more information on the need for this target, please read the [MCP](rust-lang/compiler-team#694). There is one aspect of this PR that will become insta-stable once these changes reach a stable compiler: * A new `target_family` named `wasi` is introduced. This target family incorporates all wasi targets including `wasm32-wasi` and its derivative `wasm32-wasi-preview1-threads`. The difference between `target_family = wasi` and `target_os = wasi` will become much clearer when `wasm32-wasi` is renamed to `wasm32-wasi-preview1` and the `target_os` becomes `wasm32-wasi-preview1`. You can read about this target rename in [this MCP](rust-lang/compiler-team#695) which has also been seconded and will hopefully be officially approved soon. Additional technical details include: * Both `std::sys::wasi_preview2` and `std::os::wasi_preview2` have been created and mostly use `#[path]` annotations on their submodules to reach into the existing `wasi` (soon to be `wasi_preview1`) modules. Over time the differences between `wasi_preview1` and `wasi_preview2` will grow and most like all `#[path]` based module aliases will fall away. * Building `wasi-preview2` relies on a [`wasi-sdk`](https://github.com/WebAssembly/wasi-sdk) in the same way that `wasi-preview1` does (one must include a `wasi-root` path in the `Config.toml` pointing to sysroot included in the wasi-sdk). The target should build against [wasi-sdk v21](https://github.com/WebAssembly/wasi-sdk/releases/tag/wasi-sdk-21) without modifications. However, the wasi-sdk itself is growing [preview2 support](WebAssembly/wasi-sdk#370) so this might shift rapidly. We will be following along quickly to make sure that building the target remains possible as the wasi-sdk changes. * This requires a [patch to libc](https://github.com/rylev/rust-libc/tree/wasm32-wasi-preview2) that we'll need to land in conjunction with this change. Until that patch lands the target won't actually build.

Note, however, that as explained in rust-lang/compiler-team#695 the previous `wasm32-wasi` target is not being removed at this time. This change will reach stable Rust before even a warning about the rename will be printed. At this time this change is just the start where a new target is introduced and users can start migrating if they support only Nightly for example.

This commit is a continuation of the work originally proposed in rust-lang/compiler-team#607 and later amended in rust-lang/compiler-team#695. The end goal is to rename `wasm32-wasi` to `wasm32-wasip1` to reflect WASI's development and distinguish the preexisting target from the `wasm32-wasip2` target that WASI is now developing. Work for this transition began in rust-lang#120468 which landed in Rust 1.78 which became stable on 2024-05-02. This implements the next phase of the transition plan to warn on usage of `wasm32-wasi`. This is intended to help alert users that a removal is pending and all release channels have the replacement available as well. This will reach stable on 2024-09-05. The next stage of the plan is to remove the `wasm32-wasi` target some time in October 2024 which means that the removal will reach stable on 2025-01-09. For reference a full schedule of this transition is listed [here]. Currently this implementation is a simple unconditional warning whenever `rustc --target wasm32-wasi` is invoked. As-implemented there's no way to turn off the warning other than to switch to the `wasm32-wasip1` target. [here]: rust-lang#120468 (comment)

This commit is the final step in the journey of renaming the historical `wasm32-wasi` target in the Rust compiler to `wasm32-wasip1`. Various steps in this journey so far have been: * 2023-04-03: rust-lang/compiler-team#607 - initial proposal for this rename * 2024-11-27: rust-lang/compiler-team#695 - amended schedule/procedure for rename * 2024-01-29: rust-lang#120468 - initial introduction of `wasm32-wasip1` * 2024-06-18: rust-lang#126662 - warn on usage of `wasm32-wasi` * 2024-11-08: this PR - remove the `wasm32-wasi` target The full transition schedule is in [this comment][comment] and is summarized with: * 2024-05-02: Rust 1.78 released with `wasm32-wasip1` target * 2024-09-05: Rust 1.81 released warning on usage of `wasm32-wasi` * 2025-01-09: Rust 1.84 to be released without the `wasm32-wasi` target This means that support on stable for the replacement target of `wasm32-wasip1` has currently been available for 6 months. Users have already seen warnings on stable for 2 months about usage of `wasm32-wasi` and stable users have another 2 months of warnings before the target is removed from stable. This commit is intended to be the final step in this transition so the source tree should no longer mention `wasm32-wasi` except in historical reference to the older name of the `wasm32-wasip1` target.
