--- OTP-24.0.3 ------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
--- Improvements and New Features ---
OTP-17502 Application(s): otp
A new page called "Coming Potential Incompatibilities"
has been added to the documentation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
--- compiler-8.0.2 --------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The compiler-8.0.2 application can be applied independently of other
applications on a full OTP 24 installation.
--- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---
OTP-17489 Application(s): compiler
Related Id(s): GH-4953
A compiler optimization pass could crash when given odd
but legal code using throw/1.
Full runtime dependencies of compiler-8.0.2: crypto-3.6, erts-11.0,
kernel-7.0, stdlib-3.13
---------------------------------------------------------------------
--- dialyzer-4.4.1 --------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The dialyzer-4.4.1 application can be applied independently of other
applications on a full OTP 24 installation.
--- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---
OTP-17443 Application(s): dialyzer
Related Id(s): GH-4890
Do not expose line number 0 in messages if there are
other locations to use.
OTP-17482 Application(s): dialyzer
In rare circumstances, Dialyzer could crash analyzing
code with a list comprehension whose value was ignored.
(Thanks to Ulf Wiger for reporting this bug.)
Full runtime dependencies of dialyzer-4.4.1: compiler-7.0, erts-9.0,
kernel-5.3, stdlib-3.4, syntax_tools-2.0, wx-1.2
---------------------------------------------------------------------
--- erts-12.0.3 -----------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The erts-12.0.3 application can be applied independently of other
applications on a full OTP 24 installation.
--- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---
OTP-17472 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): PR-4932
A call to erlang:cancel_timer(_, [{info, false}]) could
cause the calling process to block forever in the call.
Note that only the synchronous version of the call
(that is, the async option is false) in combination
with the info option set to false was effected by this
bug.
OTP-17493 Application(s): erts
Microstate accounting (msacc) and os:perf_counter()
unintentionally used system time instead of monotonic
time for time measurements on a lot of systems. These
systems were all non x86/x86_64 systems or x86/x86_64
systems without a reliable and constant rdtsc
instruction.
The lock counting (lcnt) built runtime system also
unintentionally used system time instead of monotonic
time for time measurements on all systems.
OTP-17500 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): GH-4809
Simultaneous calls to
erlang:system_flag(schedulers_online, _) could cause
callers to end up in a suspended state forever.
Full runtime dependencies of erts-12.0.3: kernel-8.0, sasl-3.3,
stdlib-3.13
---------------------------------------------------------------------
--- inets-7.4.1 -----------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The inets-7.4.1 application can be applied independently of other
applications on a full OTP 24 installation.
--- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---
OTP-17490 Application(s): inets
Improved user input handling in inets/mod_esi
preventing unnecessary atom creation.
Full runtime dependencies of inets-7.4.1: erts-6.0, kernel-3.0,
mnesia-4.12, runtime_tools-1.8.14, ssl-5.3.4, stdlib-3.5
---------------------------------------------------------------------
--- ssh-4.12.3 ------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The ssh-4.12.3 application can be applied independently of other
applications on a full OTP 24 installation.
--- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---
OTP-17468 Application(s): ssh
Related Id(s): ERIERL-656
Filter out sensitive data (passwords etc) from progress
reports and supervisor reports.
Full runtime dependencies of ssh-4.12.3: crypto-5.0, erts-9.0,
kernel-5.3, public_key-1.6.1, runtime_tools-1.15.1, stdlib-3.15
