Hi Rafael,
you have my support to add WASM/WASI arch support natively.
Our usecase is to evaluate some php code in client/browser directly and
thus improve client response times.
Based on the php-src contributing policy, minor version branches
(PHP-8.2, ...) are bugfix branches only, thus you should target master.
Your PR should add 1 workflow which will run all tests on WASM with
opcache disabled and enabled.
With kind regards / Mit freundlichen Grüßen / S přátelským pozdravem,
Michael Voříšek

Hello all,
I'm following up to give you a quick update on the PHP port to the wasm32-wasi
platform.
We have released the port of 8.1.11 [1 [1]] and 8.2.0 [2 [2]] PHP versions.
We also had a really nice contribution from Simon Menke that we will be merging
soon that enables setjmp/longjmp emulation, that will help supporting shutdown
functions. We also have work in progress to support PHP fibers using this
emulation.
You can find each patch for the specific PHP version at our project in GitHub
[3 [3]].
What would be the next steps to contribute these patches upstream? We are very
interested in bringing to PHP the benefits WebAssembly provides around
application security and delivery, similarly to how Python [4 [4]] and Ruby [5
[5]] are doing.
Thank you,
Rafael Fernández López.
