The main breaking change between v0.10 and v0.11 is that Error is removed in favour of Errno. Unfortunately we can't create an Errno from outside the wasi create so we're loosing some debug information for errors. I've opened an issue to add back such a constructor, see <bytecodealliance/wasi-rs#64>.
Since wasi v0.11 doesn't (yet) provided a way to create Errno, see <bytecodealliance/wasi-rs#64>.

Why not just use wasi::random_get?

Because the new Errno from wasi, which replaced Error, can actually hold 0. Errno::as_raw returns u16, which may be zero, thus invalidating the previous code calling NonZeroU32::new_unchecked. However handling zero ourselves ensures we can call NonZeroU32::new_unchecked again.

But it won't actually be zero if the function returns Err, so it seems fine.

It would mean that soundness of our code relies on an implementation detail of wasi. I am not sure we can rely on it, even though it's a very reasonable assumption.

This is the exact reason I decided to switch.

So I should drop the libc dependency and remove the error message? |

That sounds great! |
This does mean that we won't get an error message for the error type.

@josephlr done. |

Any update on this? |
This change ensures that we only compile our WASI implementation for 32-bit targets. The interaction between the WASI proposal and the memory64 proposal is not yet clear, [wasmtime does not yet support]( bytecodealliance/wasmtime#3594 (comment)) using WASI with memory64, and many of the interfaces use 32-bit values for pointers. This change also reduces the use of `unsafe` from the wasi implementation. As noted in #253, changes to `Errno` mean that we can't get the error message from the raw error code, but we can avoid using unsafe when converting this code to a NonZeroU32. This handling also makes WASI behave more like our other targets, which also manually check that errno is non-zero. Signed-off-by: Joe Richey <[email protected]>
