In the StableHLO spec, we are talking about this in more abstract terms - "StableHLO opset" - to be able to unambiguously reason about the semantics of StableHLO programs. However, in practice the StableHLO dialect is the primary implementation of the opset at the moment.
I wrote "primary implementation" because e.g. there is also ongoing work on adding StableHLO support to the TFLite flatbuffer schema: https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/master/tensorf.... Having an abstract notion of the StableHLO opset enables us to have a source of truth that all the implementations correspond to.
