I have asked at https://bytecodealliance.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/219900-wasi/topic/Who.20is.20expected.20to.20make.20.60posix_fallocate.60.20work.3F to find out who I should reach out to for finding out what this function errors out.

Turns out
posix_fallocate()was in WASI preview1, but has been yanked in preview2 due to inconsistent semantics across OSs. Best solution then is to just skipposix_fallocate()on WASI unconditionally.GH-111804: Drop posix.fallocate() under WASI (GH-111869)

Fixed in
main, but the backports to 3.11 and 3.12 still need to be done.pythonGH-111804: Drop posix.fallocate() under WASI (pythonGH-111869)
