46.0.0

Released 2026-06-22.

Added

• Added opt-in support for the WebAssembly branch-hinting proposal: the

  #13268

  guest.
  #13471

• Wasmtime supports WASI 0.2.12, which notably includes exit-with-code in
  stable.
  #13536

• Wasmtime's component-model-async-bytes feature was renamed to
  component-model-bytes and now lifting/lowering using Bytes and BytesMut
  is directly supported.
  #13366

• Wasmtime now exposes the async call stack of components through its public API
  which can be used to determine which root task performed an import call.
  #13510

• Wasmtime now supports WASI 0.3.0 by default and the component-model-async
  wasm feature is now enabled by default.
  #13612

Changed

• Performance of bulk-data-transfer instructions such as
  {array,table,memory}.{copy,fill,init} have been improved.
  #13312
  #13367
  #13368
  #13382
  #13407
  #13424
  #13438
  #13460
  #13524

  allocator.

  WasmtimeBug type for embedders to detect and safely tear down the
  store/instance.
  #13321
  #13320

• Cranelift's MemFlags type is now renamed to MemFlagsData, and
  AliasRegions are now stored in the DFG.
  #13353

• Cranelift's egraph rewrite pass now uses a concept of fuel to avoid
  exponential blowup of rewrites.
  #13390

  the size of the transfer.

  structs/enums.
  #13319
  #13335

  optimized to perform more work in wasm itself and has a refactored
  representation on the host.
  #13394
  #13444

• Heuristics for triggering GC in the DRC collector have been adjusted to avoid
  blowups seen in the wild.
  #13422

  the deferred-reference-counting collector. This collector should be more
  performant in most situations and additionally have the ability to collect
  cycles.
  #13439

• Wasmtime now traps if a waitable is being waited on synchronously and
  additionally added to a waitable-set.
  #13415

• Wasmtime's behavior with subtask.cancel is now adjusted to resume the
  cancelled task immediately instead of always yielding.
  #13443

  better handle configuring the lifecycle of a request as it flows through
  the system in terms of timeouts and such.

• Most of Wasmtime's instance initialization is now compiled into a per-module
  initialization function rather than happening through the host in Wasmtime.

  this is now optionally implemented for wit_parser::ItemName with the
  wit-parser crate feature.
  #13505

• Many of Cranelift's *_imm instructions have been removed in favor as they
  were just sugar over other opcodes. Builder-style methods remain, however.
  #13527
  #13541
  #13543
  #13545
  #13548
  #13553

• Wasmtime's caching behavior is no longer gated on cfg(debug_assertions) and
  has been adjusted to handle a git source differently.
  #13535

• Bindings generation for store-using *WithStore traits now have a type
  parameter of the store on the trait itself instead of on every method.
  #13549

• Wasmtime now requires Rust 1.94.0 to compile.
  #13547

Fixed

• Wasmtime's copying collector has had a few bugs related to how it's translated

  #13381

• Returning a ThrownException when there wasn't a pending exception within a
  store has been fixed.
  #13306
