Matwey Kornilov fd5fb06966 Accepting request 894854 from home:matwey:branches:devel:languages:erlang:Factory 
- Changes for 24.0.1:
  * erl_interface: Commit of generated configure script.
  * wx: Fix build problems when wxWidgets are built with -enable-
    std.
  * wx: Commit of generated configure script.
  * crypto: Removed a risk for coredump.
  * crypto: Fixed and documented the DED_LDFLAGS_CONFTEST
    configuration variable in $ERL_TOP/HOWTO/INSTALL.md.
  * crypto: Commit of generated configure script.
  * common_test: Commit of generated configure script.
  * ssh: Add missing known_hosts and authorized_keys file types to
    ssh_file:decode/2 and ssh_file:encode/2.
  * erts: Commit of generated configure script.
  * snmp: Commit of generated configure script.
  * megaco: Commit of generated configure script.
  * odbc: Commit of generated configure script.
- Version 24.0:
  - Highlights compiler:
    * The compiler will now inline funs that are used only once
      immediately after their definition.
    * Compiler warnings and errors now include column numbers in
      addition to line numbers.
    * Variables bound between the keywords 'try' and 'of' can now
      be used in the clauses following the 'of' keyword (that is,
      in the success case when no exception was raised).
    * Generators in list and binary comprehensions will now raise a
      {bad_generator,Generator} exception if the generator has an
      incorrect type Similarly, when a filter does not evaluate to
      a boolean, a {bad_filter,Filter} exception will be raised.
    * Warnings for expressions whose result was ignored that could
      be suppressed by using the anonymous variable '_' can now be
      suppressed with a variable beginning with '_'.
    * Selective receive optimization will now be applied much more
      often. The new recv_opt_info compile flag can be used to
      print diagnostics relating to this optimization. You can read
      more about the selective receive optimization in the
      Efficiency Guide.
  - erts, kernel, stdlib:
    * hex encoding and decoding functions added in the binary module
    * The BeamAsm JIT-compiler has been added to Erlang/OTP and
      will give a significant performance boost for many
      applications. The JIT-compiler is enabled by default on most
      x86 64-bit platforms that have a C++ compiler that can
      compile C++17. To verify that a JIT enabled emulator is
      running you can use erlang:system_info(emu_flavor).
    * A compatibility adaptor for gen_tcp to use the new socket API
      has been implemented (gen_tcp_socket).
    * Extended error information for failing BIF calls as proposed
      in EEP 54 has been implemented.
    * Process aliases as outlined by EEP 53 has been introduced.
    * Implementation of EEP 56 in supervisor. It adds the concept
      of significant children as well as the auto_shutdown
      supervisor flag. See the supervisor manual page for more
      information.
  - ftp:
    * Add support for FTPES (explicit FTP over TLS).
  - ssl:
    * Make TLS handshakes in Erlang distribution concurrent.
    * TLS connections now support EdDSA certificates.
  - wx:
    * The application has been completely rewritten in order to use
      wxWidgets version 3 as its base.
    * Added support for wxWebView.
  - edoc:
    * EDoc is now capable of emitting EEP-48 doc chunks. This means
      that, with some configuration, community projects can now
      provide documentation for shell_docs the same way that OTP
      libraries did since OTP 23.0.

- Changes for 23.2.2:
* crypto: Fixed usage of AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIRS() macros in configure
script sources.
* odbc: Fixed usage of AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIRS() macros in configure
script sources.
* snmp: Fixed usage of AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIRS() macros in configure
script sources.
* erts: The suspend_process() and resume_process() BIFs did not
check their arguments properly which could cause an emulator
crash.
* erts: The runtime system would get into an infinite loop if the
runtime system was started with more than 1023 file descriptors
already open.
* megaco: Fixed usage of AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIRS() macros in configure
script sources.
* erl_interface: Integers outside of the range [-(1 bsl 32) - 1,
(1 bsl 32) -1] were previously intended to be printed in an
internal bignum format by ei_print_term() and
ei_s_print_term(). Unfortunately the implementation has been
buggy since OTP R13B02 and since then produced results with
random content which also could crash the calling program. This
fix replaces the printing of the internal format with printing
in hexadecimal form and extend the range for printing in
decimal form. Currently integers in the range [-(1 bsl 64), (1
bsl 64)] are printed in decimal form and integers outside of
this range in Erlang hexadecimal form.
* erl_interface: The ei API for decoding/encoding terms is not
fully 64-bit compatible since terms that have a representation
on the external term format larger than 2 GB cannot be handled.
* ssl: Fix CVE-2020-35733 this only affects ssl-10.2 (OTP-23.2).
This vulnerability could enable a man in the middle attack
using a fake chain to a known trusted ROOT. Also limits
alternative chain handling, for handling of possibly extraneous
certs, to improve memory management.
* ssl: Add support for AES CCM based cipher suites defined in RFC
7251 Also Correct cipher suite name conversion to OpenSSL
names. A few names where corrected earlier in OTP-16267 For
backwards compatible reasons we support usage of openSSL names
for cipher suites. Mostly anonymous suites names where
incorrect, but also some legacy suites.
- Changes for 23.2.1:
* erts: Fix emulator crash when sending small bit-strings over
Erlang distribution while the connection is being setup. The
fault was introduced in OTP-23.0
- Changes for 23.2:
* erl_docgen: Fix links in titles to github and anchors to work.
* erl_docgen: Fix some typing errors on variable names in
documentation examples.
* mnesia: Avoid potential performance issue, if the input queue
to mnesia_tm is long.
* crypto: Build the supported curves cache in the NIF when crypto
is loaded, no matter how it is loaded. This prevents a possible
problem with different processes starting the crypto
application concurrently.
* crypto: It is now possible to build with crypto and openssl
gprof-enabled and statically link them into the VM.
* crypto: Fixed performance loss in HMAC when using older OpenSSL
due to mutex issues. A workaround is implemented to allow
fallback from using the EVP API for HMAC operations. On some
architectures this may improve the performance, especially with
old OpenSSL versions. This fallback to low-level functions is
always enabled for openssl versions before 1.0.2.
* kernel: The apply call's in logger.hrl are now called with
erlang prefix to avoid clashed with local apply/3 functions.
* kernel: Fix memory leak in pg.
* kernel: Fix crash in logger_proxy due to stray gen_server:call
replies not being handled. The stray replies come when logger
is under heavy load and the flow control mechanism is reaching
its limit.
* kernel: Fixed a bug in erl_epmd:names() that caused it to
return the illegal return value noport instead of {error,
Reason} where Reason is the actual error reason. This bug also
propagated to net_adm:names(). This bug was introduced in
kernel version 7.1 (OTP 23.1).
* kernel: Add export of some resolver documented types.
* kernel: Add configurable retry timeout for resolver lookups.
* kernel: gen_server:multi_call() has been optimized in the
special case of only calling the local node with timeout set to
infinity.
* public_key: Corrected dialyzer spec for pkix_path_validation/3
* snmp: If an attempt was made to send a v1 trap on a IPv6
transport this could cause a master agent crash (if the agent
was *not* multi-threaded).
* snmp: The deprecation info for a couple of the deprecated MIB
compiler functions where incorrect. Referred to functions in
the 'snmpa' module instead of 'snmpc'.
* snmp: Make it possible for the agent to configure separate
transports (sockets) for request-responder and trap-sender.
* snmp: The mib server cache handling has been improved. First,
the default gclimit has been changed from 100 to infinity (to
ensure the size is as small as possible). Also, the method of
removing old elements has been optimized.
* snmp: It is now possible to configure the agent in such a way
that the order of outgoing notifications are processed in order
in the agent. What happens after the notification message has
left the agent (been sent) is of course still out of our
control.
* snmp: Improve handling of the udp_error message. Basically an
improved error/warning message.
* wx: Add popup menu callback to wxTaskBarIcon:new/1.
* dialyzer: Clarify warning option -Wunmatched_returns in
dialyzer(3).
* tools: Correct the Xref analysis exports_not_used to not report
internally generated behaviour_info/1.
* syntax_tools: In the syntax_tools application, the igor module
and all functions in erl_tidy except file/2 have been
deprecated.
* compiler: Several minor compiler bugs have been fixed:
Constructing a binary with a list as a size of a binary segment
could generate a BEAM file that could not be loaded. When
matching a binary segment of type float and ignoring the
matched out value, the match would always succeed, even if the
size was invalid or the value of the float was NaN or some
other non-numeric float value. Attempting to construct an
invalid external fun (e.g. fun m:f:bad) is supposed to raise a
'badarg' exception, but if the value was never used, no
exception would be raised.
* compiler: Fixed multiple bugs in the validator that could cause
it to reject valid code.
* compiler: The compiler could crash when a binary comprehension
had a generator that depended on another generator.
* compiler: Fixed a bug in the type optimization pass that could
yield incorrect values or cause the wrong clauses to be
executed.
* erts: Fixed bug which could cause VM crash when a NIF is loaded
at the same time as the Erlang implementation of the NIF is
called. Bug exists since OTP 23.0.
* erts: Fixed enif_make_map_* functions in debug build when given
environment from enif_alloc_env.
* erts: Fixed broken configuration option --disable-pie.
* erts: Fixed rare distribution bug in race between received
signal (link/monitor/spawn_request/spawn_reply) and
disconnection. Symptom: VM crash. Since: OTP 21.0.
* erts: Fixed a performance issue when extremely many items were
stored in the process dictionary. (Fixing this bug also
eliminates a compiler warning emitted by the latest version of
Clang.)
* erts: Remove -ftree-copyrename from flags passed to compiler
when building erts. The flag is not used by modern gcc's and is
not supported by clang.
* erts: Modules using complicated nested binary comprehensions
could fail to load.
* erts: Fixed a race in file:read_file/1 were an incomplete file
could be returned if another OS process swapped the file out
while reading.
* erts: The call list_to_integer("10", true) would return 4
instead of raising an exception. Certain other atoms would also
be interpreted as a number base.
* erts: On macOS 11 (Big Sur), erl would not start if the maximum
number of file descriptors were unlimited (ulimit -n
unlimited).
* erts: Add manifest to all executables and dynamic libraries.
* xmerl: Corrected namespace and expanded name in the old dom
backend example module.
* xmerl: Corrected a bug that in some cases didn't allow
unresolved references when skip_external_dtd option used.
* ssh: Fixed problems in the ssh cli/shell handling. Most
important are: 1) the ssh:shell function did sometimes cause
the input to be echoed twice, 2) the ssh:shell function didn't
transfer the LANG and LC_ALL shell variables to the connected
server which sometimes made Unicode handling erroneous, 3)
Unicode was not always transferred correctly to and from the
peer.
* ssh: The SSH protocol message SSH_MSG_DISCONNECT was sometimes
sent instead of SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE
* ssh: The ssh_cli module now always sends the exit-status to
connected clients so they can use that to check for successful
command execution.
* ssh: A new option pk_check_user enables checking of the
client's user name in the server when doing public key
authentication.
* stdlib: This change fixes the handling of deep lists in the
path component when using uri_string:recompose/1.
* stdlib: Fix shell_docs to clear shell decorations
(bold/underline) when paginating output. Fix various small
renderings issues when integrating shell_docs with edoc.
* stdlib: Improved the API and documentation of the uri_string
module. Added a new chapter to the Users Guide about Uniform
Resource Identifiers and their handling with the new API. Added
two new API functions: uri_string:allowed_characters/0 and
uri_string:percent_decode/1. This change has been marked as
potentially incompatible as uri_string:normalize/2 used to
decode percent-encoded character triplets that corresponded to
characters not in the reserved set. After this change,
uri_string:normalize/2 will only decode those percent-encoded
triplets that correspond to characters in the unreserved set
(ALPHA / DIGIT / "-" / "." / "_" / "~"). *** POTENTIAL
INCOMPATIBILITY ***
* stdlib: The shell_docs module has been expanded with the
possibility to configure unicode, ansi and column size for the
rendered text.
* megaco: Empty statistics descriptor (now) allowed in both
encode and decode for version 3.
* ssl: SSL's Erlang Distribution Protocol modules inet_tls_dist
and inet6_tls_dist lacked a callback function, so the start
flag "-dist_listen false" did not work, which has now been
fixed.
* ssl: Correct OpenSSL names for newer cipher suites using DHE in
their name that accidentally got the wrong value when fixing
other older names using EDH instead.
* ssl: This change improves the handling of DTLS listening
dockets, making it possible to open multiple listeners on the
same port with different IP addresses.
* ssl: Fix a bug that causes cross-build failure. This change
excludes the ssl.d dependency file from the source tarballs.
* ssl: This change fixes ssl:peername/1 when called on a DTLS
client socket.
* ssl: Retain emulation of active once on a closed socket to
behave as before 23.1
* ssl: Corrected server session cache entry deletion pre TLS-1.3.
May increase session reuse.
* ssl: Handle extraneous certs in certificate chains as well as
chains that are incomplete but can be reconstructed or
unordered chains. The cert and certfile options will now accept
a list of certificates so that the user may specify the chain
explicitly. Also, the default value of the depth option has
been increased to allow longer chains by default.
* ssl: This change implements optional NSS-style keylog in
ssl:connection_information/2 for debugging purposes. The keylog
contains various TLS secrets that can be loaded in Wireshark to
decrypt TLS packets.
* ssl: Use new gen_statem feature of changing callback mode to
improve code maintainability.
* ssl: The handling of Service Name Indication has been aligned
with RFC8446.
* ssl: Add explicit session reuse option to TLS clients for pre
TLS-1.3 sessions. Also, add documentation to Users Guide for
such sessions.
* inets: Fix an issue about HTML-escaped filename in inets.
* common_test: Add behaviour for test suites
- Changes for 23.1.5:
* ssh: An ssh-client can take an accepted socket from a listening
socket and do an ssh:connect/2 on it. Multiple clients on
sockets accepted from the same listening socket had stopped
working. This is corrected now.
- Changes for 23.1.4:
* ssh: The inet option raw was not passed on from the ssh option
list to inet.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Nov 18 20:20:39 UTC 2020 - Matwey Kornilov <matwey.kornilov@gmail.com>
- Changes for 23.1.3:
* erts: Fixed a crash when exceptions were thrown during call
time tracing.
* ssh: A supervisor sub-tree could be left if the connection
handler process is brutally killed. This will make the
max_sessions checking option to count the existing sessions
erroneously and could finally block further sessions.
- Changes for 23.1.2:
* compiler: Fixed a bug in the boolean optimization pass that
caused the compiler to confuse different clauses.
* erts: Fixed bugs causing issues when enabling the ERTS internal
allocators on a system built with the undocumented and
unsupported SMALL_MEMORY feature.
* erts: The inet driver used to use 16 as maximum elements in an
I/O vector passed to writev() (and WSASend() on Windows). When
the data to send contained lots of elements, this caused a
performance degradation since repeated calls to writev() had to
be made to a much larger extent. The inet driver now looks up
actual maximum amount of elements that can be used on the
system, instead of just assuming 16. On most systems this will
result in a maximum amount of I/O vector elements of 1024. As
of OTP 23.0 the term encoding of signals to send over the
distribution are encoded into I/O vectors of buffers instead of
into a single buffer. Reference counted binaries are referred
to directly from the I/O vector instead of being copied into
the single buffer. That is, Erlang signals containing huge
amounts of reference counted binaries was effected by this
performance degradation.
* erts: In the distributed case, a faulty reply option in a call
to the spawn_request() BIF erroneously caused a badarg
exception instead of a badopt error message reply.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Oct 06 10:17:04 UTC 2020 - Matwey Kornilov <matwey.kornilov@gmail.com>
- Changes for 23.1.1:
* erts: inet:setopts([{active,once}]) wakes up IO polling thread
unnecessarily, leading to lock contention and visibly higher
CPU utilization.
* erts: Two bugs in the ERTS internal thread wakeup functionality
have been fixed. These bugs mainly hit when all threads in the
system tried to go to sleep. When the bugs were triggered,
certain operations were delayed until a thread woke up due to
some other reason. Most important operations effected were code
loading, persistent term updates, and memory deallocation.
* erts: Fixed bug in ets:select_replace/2 on compressed tables
that could produce faulty results or VM crash. Bug exists since
OTP 20.
* erts: When compiling Erlang/OTP on macOS using Xcode 12, the
performance of the BEAM interpreter would be degraded.
* erts: As of OTP 22, the allocator specific memory carrier pools
were replaced by a node global carrier pool. This unfortunately
caused substantial memory fragmentation in some cases due to
long lived data being spread into carriers used by allocators
mainly handling short lived data. A new command line argument
+M<S>cp has been introduced with which one can enable the old
behavior as well as configuring other behaviors for the carrier
pools. In order to configure the old behavior, with allocator
specific carrier pools for all allocators, pass +Mucp :
(including the colon character) as a command line argument to
erl when starting the Erlang system. The default configuration
for carrier pools will be changed to +Mucp : some time in the
future, but not in this patch.
* os_mon: The configuration parameter
memsup_improved_system_memory_data has been introduced. It can
be used to modify the result returned by
memsup:get_system_memory_data(). For more information see the
memsup documentation. Note that the configuration parameter is
intended to be removed in OTP 24 and the modified result is
intended to be used as of OTP 24.
* ssh: Fix decoder bug.
* compiler: Fixed a performance bug that could be triggered by
tuple matching in very large functions.
* public_key: Fix the issue that pem_decode will crash with an
invalid input.
- Changes for 23.1:
* kernel: A fallback has been implemented for file:sendfile when
using inet_backend socket
* kernel: Make default TCP distribution honour option backlog in
inet_dist_listen_options.
* kernel: Raw option handling for the experimental gen_tcp_socket
backend was broken so that all raw options were ignored by for
example gen_tcp:listen/2, a bug that now has been fixed.
Reported by Jan Uhlig.
* kernel: Accept fails with inet-backend socket.
* kernel: Fixed various minor errors in the socket backend of
gen_tcp.
* kernel: Correct disk_log:truncate/1 to count the header. Also
correct the documentation to state that disk_log:truncate/1 can
be used with external disk logs.
* kernel: Fix erl_epmd:port_please/2,3 type specs to include all
possible error values.
* kernel: Fix erl -erl_epmd_port to work properly. Before this
fix it did not work at all.
* kernel: Fix typespec for internal function
erlang:seq_trace_info/1 to allow term() as returned label. This
in turn fixes so that calls to seq_trace:get_token/1 can be
correctly analyzer by dialyzer.
* kernel: Fix erroneous double registration of processes in pg
when distribution is dynamically started.
* kernel: Make (use of) the socket registry optional (still
enabled by default). Its now possible to build OTP with the
socket registry turned off, turn it off by setting an
environment variable and controlling in runtime (via function
calls and arguments when creating sockets).
* kernel: erl -remsh nodename no longer requires the hostname to
be given when used together with dynamic nodenames.
* observer: Fix graph windows flickering on windows.
* mnesia: FIx mnesia delete object handling in transaction
storage. In a transaction mnesia:read/1 could indicate that
exiting objects did not exist after another object was deleted.
* mnesia: Fixed crash during startup, which could happen if a
table was deleted on another node.
* stdlib: The functions digraph:in_edges/2 and
digraph:out_edges/2 would return false edges if called for a
vertex that had a '_' atom in its name term.
* stdlib: filelib:wildcard("not-a-directory/..") should return an
empty list. On Windows it returned "not-a-directory/..".
* stdlib: Fix the typespec of shell_docs:render to use the
correct type for an MFA.
* stdlib: Fix uri_string:recompose/1 when host is present but
input path is not absolute. This change prevents the recompose
operation to change the top level domain of the host when the
path does not start with a slash.
* stdlib: The epp module would return a badly formed error term
when an 'if' preprocessor directive referenced an undefined
symbol. epp:format_error/1 would crash when called with the bad
error term.
* stdlib: lists:sublist(List, Start, Len) failed with an
exception if Start > length(List) + 1 even though it is
explicitly documented that "It is not an error for Start+Len to
exceed the length of the list".
* tools: Correct the Xref analysis locals_not_used to find
functions called exclusively from on_load functions.
* erts: Update the documentation of the abstract format to use
ANNO instead of LINE.
* erts: The emulator will no longer revert to the default number
of schedulers when running under a CPU quota lower than 1 CPU.
* erts: Fixed a problem with crash dumps. When a process that
contained reference to literals internally created by the
runtime system (such as the tuple returned by os:type/0), the
literal would not be included in the crash dump and the
crashdump viewer would complain about the heap being
incomplete.
* erts: Fix configure detection of PGO for clang.
* erts: The to_erl program has been fixed to correctly interpret
newline as only newline and not newline+return. This bug would
cause the terminal to behave strangely when using lines longer
than the terminal size.
* erts: A race condition when changing process priority by
calling process_flag(priority, Prio) could cause elevation of
priority for a system task to be ignored. This bug hit if the
system task was scheduled on the process calling process_flag()
at the same time as the priority was changed. The bug is quite
harmless and should hit very seldom if ever.
* erts: Adjust /bin/sh to /system/bin/sh in scripts when
installing on Android.
* erts: In rare circumstances, when loading a BEAM file generated
by an alternative code generator (not the Erlang compiler in
OTP) or from handwritten or patched BEAM code, the loader could
do an unsafe optimization.
* erts: A memory and file descriptor leak in socket has been
fixed. (When a newly opened socket that had not entered the fd
into the VM's poll set (neither received, sent, accepted nor
connected) was abandoned without closing (process died), after
assigning a different controlling process, then a memory block
and the file descriptor could be leaked.)
* erts: The documentation of statistics(run_queue) erroneously
stated that it returns the total length of all normal run
queues when it is the total length of all normal and dirty CPU
run queues that is returned. The documentation has been updated
to reflect the actual behavior.
* erts: Changes in order to build on the Haiku operating system.
Thanks to Calvin Buckley
* erts: When building the inet driver on Windows, there where
many compiler warnings regarding type casting (used when
calling the debug macro). This has now been resolved.
* erts: Make (use of) the socket registry optional (still enabled
by default). Its now possible to build OTP with the socket
registry turned off, turn it off by setting an environment
variable and controlling in runtime (via function calls and
arguments when creating sockets).
* erts: Change default filename encoding on android to UTF-8.
* erts: Clarification of the format of the atom cache header used
by the distribution.
* erl_docgen: Repaired lost function "since" versions in the
right margin of the module reference HTML documentation.
* erl_docgen: Remove erlang compilation warnings and trailing
whitespaces.
* ftp: Avoid timing issue when setting active once on a socket
that is being closed by the peer.
* ftp: Avoid timing issue when setting active once on a socket
that is being closed by the peer.
* dialyzer: In rare circumstance, dialyzer wold crash when
analyzing a list comprehension.
* eunit: Fixed compiler warning.
* snmp: For agent fix PrivParams for SNMPv3 USM with AES privacy,
as earlier fixed for the manager in OTP_16541.
* snmp: The SNMP Agent missed to re-activate datagram reception
in an odd timeout case and went deaf. This bug has been fixed.
* snmp: Use of deprecated functions in example 2 has been removed
(no more compiler warnings).
* snmp: A file descriptor leak has been plugged. When calling the
reconfigure function of a mib, it opened the config file(s) but
never closed them on successful read.
* asn1: Changes in order to build on the Haiku operating system.
Thanks to Calvin Buckley
* syntax_tools: Minor documentation fix of erl_syntax:operator/1.
* erl_interface: Fix erl_interface on windows to be compiled with
correct flags to make internal primitives reentrant.
* erl_interface: Fixed ei_get_type to set *size to zero for
floats, pids, port and refs according to documentation.
* erl_interface: Fix ei_connect when using a dynamic node name to
force usage of distribution version 6. This bug caused erl_call
-R -address to not work properly.
* erl_interface: Changes in order to build on the Haiku operating
system. Thanks to Calvin Buckley
* erl_interface: The ei API for decoding/encoding terms is not
fully 64-bit compatible since terms that have a representation
on the external term format larger than 2 GB cannot be handled.
* ssl: If a passive socket is created, ssl:recv/2,3 is never
called and then the peer closes the socket the controlling
process will no longer receive an active close message.
* ssl: Data deliver with ssl:recv/2,3 could fail for when using
packet mode. This has been fixed by correcting the flow control
handling of passive sockets when packet mode is used.
* ssl: This change fixes a potential man-in-the-middle
vulnerability when the ssl client is configured to
automatically handle session tickets ({session_tickets, auto}).
* ssl: Fix the internal handling of options 'verify' and
'verify_fun'. This change fixes a vulnerability when setting
the ssl option 'verify' to verify_peer in a continued handshake
won't take any effect resulting in the acceptance of expired
peer certificates.
* ssl: This change fixes the handling of stateless session
tickets when anti-replay is enabled.
* ssl: Fix a crash due to the faulty handling of stateful session
tickets received by servers expecting stateless session
tickets. This change also improves the handling of
faulty/invalid tickets.
* ssl: Correct flow ctrl checks from OTP-16764 to work as
intended. Probably will not have a noticeable affect but will
make connections more well behaved under some circumstances.
* ssl: Distribution over TLS could exhibit livelock-like
behaviour when there is a constant stream of distribution
messages. Distribution data is now chunked every 16 Mb to avoid
that.
* ssl: Implement the cookie extension for TLS 1.3.
* ssl: Experimental OCSP client support.
* ssl: TLS 1.0 -TLS-1.2 sessions tables now have a absolute max
value instead of using a shrinking mechanism when reaching the
limit. To avoid out of memory problems under heavy load
situations. Note that this change infers that implementations
of ssl_session_cache_api needs to implement the size function
(introduce in OTP 19) for session reuse to be optimally
utilized.
* os_mon: memsup now returns the correct amount of system memory
on macOS.
* os_mon: Fix memsup:get_os_wordsize/0 to return the current size
on aarch64.
* ssh: Fixed a bug when a message to ssh-agent was divided into
separate packets.
* ssh: Fix a bug that could crash the cli server if a too large
cli-window was requested from the client.
* ssh: Increased test coverage.
* ssh: A chapter about hardening the OTP SSH is added to the
User's Guide.
* ssh: The internal Diffie-Hellman high level API for key
generation was slow in old and by OpenSSL now unsupported
cryptolib versions (1.0.1 and earlier). If such a cryptolib is
used anyhow, the low-level API is used internally in the crypto
application.
* ssh: A new timeout is defined for daemons: hello_timeout. The
timeout is supposed to be used as a simple DoS attack
protection. It closes an incoming TCP-connection if no valid
first SSH message is received from the client within the
timeout limit after the TCP initial connection setup. The
initial value is 30s by compatibility reasons, but could be
lowered if needed, for example in the code or in a config file.
* inets: Clarify the handling of percent encoded characters in
http client.
* inets: fix crash for undefined port in uri.
* inets: Avoid timing issue when setting active once on a socket
that is being closed by the peer.
* inets: Handle message body of response with 1XX status code as
next http message.
* inets: Fix a crash in http server when setopts is called on a
socket closed by the peer.
* inets: A vulnerability in the httpd module (inets application)
regarding directory traversal that was introduced in OTP 22.3.1
and corrected in OTP 22.3.4.6. It was also introduced in OTP
23.0 and corrected in OTP 23.1 The vulnerability is registered
as CVE-2020-25623 (boo#1177354) The vulnerability is only exposed
if the http server (httpd) in the inets application is used. The
vulnerability makes it possible to read arbitrary files which
the Erlang system has read access to with for example a
specially prepared http request.
* inets: Add support of PATCH method in mod_esi.
* compiler: If the update of a map with the 'Map#{Key := Value}'
syntax failed, the line number in the stack backtrace could be
incorrect.
* compiler: Fixed a performance bug that slowed down compilation
of modules with deeply nested terms.
* compiler: The compiler could in rare circumstances do an an
unsafe optimization that would result in a matching of a nested
map pattern would fail to match.
* compiler: Fixed a bug in the validator that caused it to reject
valid code.
* public_key: Fixed an insignificant whitespace issue when
decoding PEM file.
* public_key: Experimental OCSP client support.
* public_key: Use user returned path validation error for
selfsigned cert. It allows users of the ssl application to
customize the generated TLS alert, within the range of defined
alerts.
* public_key: add API function to retrieve the subject-ID of an
X509 certificate
* runtime_tools: Fixed a crash in appmon_info triggered by trying
to read port info from a port that was in the process of
terminating. appmon_info is used by observer to get information
from the observed node.
* megaco: The expected number of warnings when (yecc) generating
v2 and v3 (text) parser's was incorrect.
* hipe: Fixed a warning issued when building the hipe
application.
* odbc: Changes in order to build on the Haiku operating system.
Thanks to Calvin Buckley
* crypto: Fix type spec bug in crypto for crypto_init and
crypto:one_time
* crypto: The deprecation message for crypto:rand_uniform/2
indicated a non-existent function. The correct one
(rand:uniform/1) is now suggested.
* crypto: Implemented a workaround to allow fallback from using
the EVP API for Diffie-Hellman key generation
* crypto: The internal Diffie-Hellman high level API for key
generation was slow in old and by OpenSSL now unsupported
cryptolib versions (1.0.1 and earlier). If such a cryptolib is
used anyhow, the low-level API is used internally in the crypto
application.
* sasl: Make release_handler more resilient against exiting
processes during upgrade.
- Changes for 23.0.4:
* stdlib: When a temporary child of a simple_one_for_one
supervisor died, the internal state of the supervisor would be
corrupted in a way that would cause the supervisor to retain
the start arguments for subsequent children started by the
supervisor, causing unnecessary growth of the supervisor's
heap. There state corruption could potentially cause other
problems as well.
* erts: The ERTS internal I/O poll implementation could get into
an inconsistent state causing input events to be ignored.
* megaco: The v2 and v3 parsers could not properly decode some
IPv6 addresses.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Aug 24 10:20:01 UTC 2020 - Gabriele Santomaggio <g.santomaggio@gmail.com>
- Changes for 23.0.3:
* erts: Fixed bug in erlang:load_nif/2 that could cause it to
throw badarg exception if a concurrent code change operation
was in progress. Bug existed since OTP 23.0.
* erts: Minor fix of debug compiled VM.
* erts: An unintentional reuse of an already used emulator
internal event object could cause a wakeup signal to a thread
to be lost. In worst case this could cause the runtime system
to hang. This hang was however quite rare.
* erts: NIF threads and driver threads on non-Linux systems
leaked internal resources when terminating. On Windows these
resources were one event per thread. On most other systems one
mutex and one condition variable per thread. On these other
systems that also lacked pthread_cond_timedwait() also a pipe
with its file descriptors was leaked.
* compiler: When calls to is_map_key were repeated, the compiler
could terminate with an internal consistency failure.
* compiler: Fixed a bug in the type inference pass that could
cause the compiler to hang.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jun 12 07:24:09 UTC 2020 - Matwey Kornilov <matwey.kornilov@gmail.com>
- Changes for 23.0.2:
* erts: Fixed bug when sending an export fun (eg lists:reverse/1)
on a not yet established connection. It could cause VM crash.
Bug exists since OTP 23.0.
* megaco: The mini parser could not properly decode some IPv6
addresses.
- Changes for 23.0.1:
* erts: The functionality utilized by BIFs for temporary
disabling of garbage collection while yielding could cause
system task queues to become inconsistent on a process
executing such a BIF. Process system tasks are for example
utilized when purging code, garbage collecting literal data,
and when issuing an ordinary garbage collection from another
process. The bug does not trigger frequently. Multiple code
purges in direct sequence makes it more likely that this bug is
triggered. In the cases observed, this has resulted in a
hanging code purge operation.
* erts: SCTP and UDP recv/2,3 hangs indefinitely if socket is
closed while recv is called (socket in passive mode).
* compiler: In rare circumstances, a guard using 'not' could
evaluate to the wrong boolean value.
* compiler: A guard expression that referenced a variable bound
to a boolean expression could evaluate to the wrong value.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jun 12 06:36:45 UTC 2020 - Matwey Kornilov <matwey.kornilov@gmail.com>
- Version 23.0:
- Potential Incompatibilities:
* SSL:Support for SSL 3.0 is completely removed. TLS 1.3 is added
to the list of default supported versions.
* erl_interface: Removed the deprecated parts of erl_interface
(erl_interface.h and essentially all C functions with prefix
erl_).
* The deprecated erlang:get_stacktrace/0 BIF now returns an empty
list instead of a stacktrace. erlang:get_stacktrace/0 is
scheduled for removal in OTP 24.
- Improvements and new features:
* ssh: OpenSSH 6.5 introduced a new file representation of keys
called openssh-key-v1. This is now supported with the exception
of handling encrypted keys.
* Algorithm configuration could now be done in a .config file. This
is useful for example to enable an algorithm that is disabled by
default without need to change the code.
* SSL: Support for the middlebox compatibility mode makes the TLS
1.3 handshake look more like a TLS 1.2 handshake and increases
the chance of successfully establishing TLS 1.3 connections
through legacy middleboxes.
* Add support for key exchange with Edward curves and PSS-RSA
padding in signature verification
* The possibility to run Erlang distribution without relying on
EPMD has been extended.
* A first EXPERIMENTAL socket backend to gen_tcp and inet has been
implemented. gen_udp and gen_sctp will follow.
* Putting {inet_backend, socket} as first option to listen() or
connect() makes it easy to try this for existing code
* A new module erpc in kernel which implements an enhanced subset
of the operations provided by the rpc module. Enhanced in the
sense that it makes it possible to distinguish between returned
value, raised exceptions and other errors. erpc also has better
performance and scalability than the original rpc implementation.
This by utilizing the newly introduced spawn_request() BIF. Also
the rpc module benefits from these improvements by utilizing erpc
when possible.
* Scalability and performance Improvements plus new functionality
regarding distributed spawn operations.
* In binary matching, the size of the segment to be matched is now
allowed to be a guard expression (EEP-52)
* When matching with maps the keys can now be guard expressions
(EEP-52).
* ssh: support for TCP/IP port forwarding, a.k.a tunnelling a.k.a
as tcp-forward/direct-tcp is implemented. In the OpenSSH client,
this corresponds to the options -L and -R.
* Allow underscores in numeric literals to improve readability.
Examples: 123_456_789, 16#1234_ABCD.
* New functions in the shell for displaying documentation for
Erlang modules, functions and types.
* kernel: The module pg with a new implementation of distributed
named process groups is introduced. The old module pg2 is
deprecated and scheduled for removal in OTP 24.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Mar 25 08:48:44 UTC 2020 - g.santomaggio@gmail.com
- Changes for 22.3:
* compiler: A 'receive' with an 'after 0' clause would prevent
the optimization that can avoid scanning the entire receive
queue when matching on a newly created reference.
* compiler: HiPE can again handle modules with catch and try
constructs.
* compiler: Fixed a bug in bit-syntax optimization that could
crash the compiler.
* crypto: Fixed potential memory leaks involving calls to the
crypto ng_api.
* common_test: Document incl_apps cover option
* common_test: The ct_property_test has now a report function for
results of stateful testing.
* common_test: Don't hide error reasons from user
* stdlib: Fix type specification for uri_string:normalize/2 that
may also return error().
* stdlib: Improve error handling in uri_string:normalize/2. This
change fixes a crash when the input URI has faulty percent-
encoding.
* stdlib: Fix minor bugs in the Erlang pretty printer (erl_pp).
* stdlib: Fix the Erlang parser regarding consecutive unary
operators.
* stdlib: Let calendar:rfc3339_to_system_time() crash when the
time offset is missing.
* stdlib: Implement uri_string:resolve/{2,3} that can be used to
resolve a URI reference against a base URI.
* stdlib: In gen_statem it is now possible to change the callback
module for a running server. See gen_statem's documentation for
change_callback_module, push_callback_module, and
pop_callback_module.
* ssl: Correct handling of TLS record limit in TLS-1.3. The max
value differs from previous versions. Also the payload data max
record check was broken, that is record overflow problems could
occur if user sent large amounts of data.
* ssl: Correct close handling for DTLS
* ssl: Fix ssl:getstat/1-2 to also work for DTLS sockets
* ssl: Correct internal handling och socket active mode to avoid
reviving TCP data aimed for a downgraded TLS socket.
* ssl: When using the host name as fallback for SNI (server name
indication) strip a possible trailing dot that is allowed in a
host name but not in the SNI. Also if the server receives a SNI
with a trailing dot send an UNRECOGNIZED_NAME alert.
* ssl: Immediately remove session entries if handshake is
abruptly closed at transport level.
* ssl: Implementation of the key and initialization vector update
feature, and general hardening of TLS 1.3. There are
cryptographic limits on the amount of plaintext which can be
safely encrypted under a given set of keys. This change
enforces those limits by triggering automatic key updates on
TLS 1.3 connections.
* ssl: Add support for TLS 1.3 Session Tickets (stateful and
stateless). This allows session resumption using keying
material from a previous successful handshake.
* ssl: Add support for key exchange with Edward curves and PSS-
RSA padding in signature verification.
* megaco: The documented function
megaco:get_sdp_record_from_PropertGroup/2 was a wrapper for
megaco_sdp:get_sdp_record_from_PropertGroup/2 but did not
actually exist. This has now been fixed.
* megaco: Test suite completely reworked. Add (timestamp) utility
functions for debugging and testing.
* erl_interface: Fix link error "multiple definition of
`ei_default_socket_callbacks'" for gcc version 10 or when built
with gcc option -fno-common. Error exists since OTP-21.3.
* asn1: Fix 'DEFAULT' with 'OCTET STRING' and 'SEQUENCE OF
CHOICE' with extensions.
* erts: gen_udp:recv(S, N, 0) corrupted the internal state for
the socket so after receive with {active, once} it always
returned {error, timeout}, and wasted the received UDP packets.
This bug has now been fixed. Reported and pinpointed by
Alexander Petrovsky.
* erts: The atom esock_atom_user and esock_atom_kernel was never
actually created. This has now been corrected.
* erts: Fixed bug in socket module that could potentially lead to
scheduler deadlocks.
* erts: Fix bug causing VM crash if down or stop callback of a
NIF resource is called after the NIF module has been purged.
The fix will postpone unloading until all such resource objects
have been garbage collected.
* erts: Fixed bug in ets:update_counter/4, when called with an
invalid UpdateOp and a Key that does not exist, causing
ets:info(T,size) to return incorrect values. Bug exists since
OTP-19.0.2.
* erts: Fix potential heap corrupting bugs when a process calls a
BIF that blocks other normal schedulers and then writes to its
own heap without the main process lock. A NIF running on a
dirty scheduler trying to interact with such a process could
corrupt its heap. The fixed BIFs were related to code loading
and tracing.
* erts: Fixed bug in erlang:list_to_ref/1 when called with a
reference created by a remote note. Function list_to_ref/1 is
intended for debugging and not to be used in application
programs. Bug exist since OTP 20.0.
* erts: The prim_net nif (net/kernel) made use of an undefined
atom, notsup. This has now been corrected.
* erts: Corrected the valid range of the erl command line
argument +SDio <NumberOfDirtyIoSchedulers> from 0..1024 to
1..1024. +SDio 0 was erroneously allowed which just caused the
VM to crash on the first dirty I/O job scheduled.
* erts: Fix a crash when attempting to log faults when loading
files during early boot.
* erts: For socket, not all send and receive flags are supported
on all platforms. In order to (at least) simplify testing, the
socket:supports/0,1,2,3 functions has been extended with
send_flags and recv_flags items, which indicates what the
current platform can manage.
* erts: Add a "full featured" version of getifaddrs in the net
module.
* erts: The options busy_limits_port and busy_limits_msgq have
been added to the BIF erlang:open_port/2. The busy_limits_port
option can be used for controlling the busy state of a port
executing the spawn_driver or the fd_driver. The
busy_limits_msgq option can be used for controlling the busy
state of the port message queue.
* erts: A socket "registry" has been added making it possible to
list current open sockets.
* erts: The counters managed by the socket nif has been extended.
Their "size" has been increased from 32 bit to 64. Two max
package size (for read and write) has been added. And four
accept counters has been added.
* erts: Add gcc option -fno-common to detect accidental name
clashes of global variables.
* erts: New dynamic lock checker that verifies locking orders and
detects potential deadlock bugs in drivers and NIFs. Enabled
together with the old static lock checker (for ERTS internal
locks) in emulator started with -emu_type debug or built with
configuration option --enable-lock-checking.
* snmp: A simple supervision of the snmp manager net-if process
has been added. Also, a way to forcibly restart the net-if
process has been added. This could be useful if the net-if
process hangs for some reason.
* snmp: Misc documentation corrections
* mnesia: Fixed a timing issue in uninstall fallback
functionality.
* eunit: Backport of PR-2316: Strip control codes from
eunit_surefire output to avoid generation of invalid xml
* ssh: Unicode problems for ssh_sftp:write fixed.
* ssh: Changes to the internal api of the experimental ssh_dbg
tool.
* ssh: The new functions ssh:set_sock_opts/2 and
ssh:get_sock_opts/2 sets and reads option values for the
underlying TCP stream.
* hipe: HiPE can again handle modules with catch and try
constructs.
* hipe: When the return value for try/catch was ignored, the
native code compiler could crash.
* public_key: Add support for key exchange with Edward curves and
PSS-RSA padding in signature verification.
* diameter: Add the 'first' tuple to type diameter:peer_filter/0.
The filter was added in OTP-17.5.6.8 and OTP-18.3, but neither
release updated the type specification.
* tools: An Emacs warning due to lacking type in defcustom
declaration has been fixed.
* tools: Improve emacs indentation.
* tools: The cover tool could generate instrumented code for a
module that would cause warnings to be issued.
* tools: Fixed generated fprof analysis format to also handle
data in maps.
* sasl: A socket "registry" has been added making it possible to
list current open sockets.
* kernel: The DNS resolver `inet_res` has been fixed to return
the last intermediate error when subsequent requests times out.
* kernel: The prim_net nif (net/kernel) made use of an undefined
atom, notsup. This has now been corrected.
* kernel: Fix a crash when attempting to log faults when loading
files during early boot.
* kernel: Fix crash in logger when logging to a remote node
during boot.
* kernel: Improved net_kernel debug functionality.
- Changes for 22.2.8:
* diameter: The possibility of choosing a handler process for an
incoming Diameter request with a configured MFA was documented
in OTP 20.0, but counters (with {traffic_counters, true}) were
not incremented when this process was on a remote node.
Counters are now incremented on the node that configures the
transport in question. Introduced in OTP 21.3.
* diameter: Transport options differing from those passed to
diameter:add_transport/2 were used in several situations: when
starting a transport process after connect_timer expiry after
an initial connection attempt has failed, when starting a
transport process after a connection has been accepted, when
sending events, when returning options in
diameter:service_info/2, and possibly more. In particular, the
following configuration options to diameter:add_transport/2
were dropped: avp_dictionaries, incoming_maxlen, spawn_opt,
strict_mbit. Moreover, any service options mistakenly passed to
diameter:add_transport/2 were interpreted as such, instead of
being ignored as the documentation states, with the consequence
that outgoing and incoming requests saw different values of
some options, some were always taken from transport options,
and others from service options. diameter:add_transport/2 must
be called in new code for the fix to have effect. Introduced in
OTP 20.1.

valid code that used the is_map_key/2 BIF.
* compiler: Fixed a bug that could cause the compiler to reject
valid code that matched the same map key several times.
* compiler: The compiler could crash when compiling a convoluted

- Changes for 22.2.6:
* erts: A process could get into an inconsistent state where it
was runnable, but never scheduled for execution. This could
occur when a mix of normal and low priority processes where
scheduled on the same type of dirty scheduler simultaneously.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Feb 7 09:01:17 UTC 2020 - Gabriele Santomaggio <gsantomaggio@suse.de>
- Changes for 22.2.5:
* erts: A process could end up in a state where it got
endlessly rescheduled without making any progress. This
occurred when a system task, such as check of process
code (part of a code purge), was scheduled on a high
priority process trying to execute on a dirty
scheduler.
* erts: Improved signal handling for processes executing dirty.
For example, avoid busy wait in dirty signal handler
process when process is doing garbage collection on
dirty scheduler.
* stdlib: A directory traversal vulnerability has been eliminated
in erl_tar. erl_tar will now refuse to extract symlinks
that points outside the targeted extraction directory
and will return {error,{Path,unsafe_symlink}}. (Thanks
to Eric Meadows-Jönsson for the bug report and for
suggesting a fix.)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Feb 3 07:59:55 UTC 2020 - Gabriele Santomaggio <gsantomaggio@suse.com>
- Changes for 22.2.4:
* ssl: Enhance error handling, all ALERTS shall be handled
gracefully and not cause a crash.
* ssl: Enhance alert logging, in some places the role
indication of the alert origin was missing. So the log
would say undefined instead of client or server.
* ssl: Two different optimizations did not work together and
resulted in the possible breakage of connections using
stream ciphers (that is RC4). Reworked the
implementation to avoid this.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jan 24 08:08:38 UTC 2020 - matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Changes for 22.2.3:
* ssl: Fix the handling of GREASE values sent by web browsers
when establishing TLS 1.3 connections. This change improves
handling of GREASE values in various protocol elements sent in
a TLS 1.3 ClientHello.
* ssl: Correct DTLS listen emulation, could cause problems with
opening a new DTLS listen socket for a port previously used by
a now closed DTLS listen socket.
* compiler: Fixed a bug in the compiler that could cause it to
reject valid code.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jan 17 08:34:03 UTC 2020 - matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Changes for 22.2.2:
* erts: Taking a scheduler offline could cause timers set while
executing on that scheduler to be delayed until the scheduler
was put online again. This bug was introduced in ERTS version
10.0 (OTP 21.0).
* erts: The ets:update_counter/4 core dumped when given an
ordered_set with write_concurrency enabled and an invalid
position. This bug has been fixed.
* erts: A process calling erlang:system_flag(multi_scheduling,
block) could end up blocked waiting for the operation to
complete indefinitely.
* erts: Duplicate entries for [socket:]getopt and [socket:]setopt
in man page.
* stdlib: The ets:update_counter/4 core dumped when given an
ordered_set with write_concurrency enabled and an invalid
position. This bug has been fixed.
* crypto: Constant time comparisons added.
* ssh: Fixed that ssh_connection:send could allocate a large
amount of memory if given an iolist() as input data.
* ssh: Safe atom conversions.
* ssh: Constant time comparisons added.
- Changes for 22.2.1:
* erts: Corrected an issue with the new socket api which could
cause a core dump. A race during socket close could cause a
core dump (an invalid nif environment free).
* erts: Corrected an issue with the new socket api which could
cause a core dump. When multiple accept processes waiting for a
connect a connect could cause a core dump.
* snmp: Its now possible to remove selected varbinds (from the
final message) when sending a notification. This is done by
setting the 'value' (in the varbind(s) of the varbinds list) to
'?NOTIFICATION_IGNORE_VB_VALUE'.
* snmp: Its now possible to specify that an oid shall be
"truncated" (trailing ".0" to be removed) when sending an
notification.
* ssl: Add missing alert handling clause for TLS record handling.
Could sometimes cause confusing error behaviors of TLS
connections.
* ssl: Fix handling of ssl:recv that happens during a
renegotiation. Using the passive receive function
ssl:recv/[2,3] during a renegotiation would fail the connection
with unexpected msg.

* erts: Numerous improvements in the new socket and net modules
* Standard libraries: common_test: ct_property_test logging is improved
* Standard libraries: ssl: Correct handling of unordered chains so that it
works as expected
* Tools: Emacs erlang-mode function that lets the user open the documentation
for an Erlang/OTP function in an Emacs buffer has been improved.
Users will be asked if they want the man pages downloaded if they are not present
in the system.

- Changes for 22.1.8
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-22.1.8.README
* erts: Large amounts of quickly executed dirty work could
cause heavy contention on an internal spin lock. The
spin lock was replaced by a mutex which behaves much
better under these conditions.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Nov 11 11:22:05 UTC 2019 - Gabriele Santomaggio <gsantomaggio@gmail.com>
- Changes for 22.1.7
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-22.1.7.README
* compiler: Fixed a performance bug that caused repeated matches of
large records to take a very long time to compile.
* erts: A literal area could prematurely be released before all
uses of it had been removed. This occurred either when
a terminating process had a complex exit reason
referring to a literal that concurrently was removed,
or when a terminating process continued executing a
dirty NIF accessing a literal (via the heap) that
concurrently was removed.
* erts: Fix bug causing VM crash due to memory corruption of
distribution entry. Probability of crash increases if
Erlang distribution is frequently disconnected and
reestablished towards same node names. Bug exists since
OTP-21.0.
* erts: Fixed bug causing crash of VM built with configuration
--enable--sharing-preserving. Provoked when a sent
message contains both a bit string and the heap binary
(< 65 bytes) which the bit string was matched from. Bug
exists since OTP-19.0 but has seen to be easier to
provoke since OTP-22.1.
- Changes for 22.1.6
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-22.1.6.README
* compiler, erts: The compiler could do an unsafe optimization of
receives, which would cause a receive to only scan part
of the message queue.
* crypto: The AEAD tag was not previously checked on decrypt with
chacha20_poly1305
* erts:Fix bug where the receive marker used by the runtime to
do the receive queue optimization could be incorrectly
set. The symptom of this would be that a message that
should match in a receive never matches.
* snmp: Agent discovery cleanup. If there is no receiver of
INFORM then #state.reqs in snmpa_net_if keeps on
growing for DISCOVERY.

- Changes for 22.1.4
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-22.1.4.README
* compiler: Fixed a bug where the compiler could generate incorrect
code for a 'receive' statement inside a 'try'.
* crypto: FIxed a bug if the erlang emulator was linked with a
very old cryptolib version (1.0.1 or earlier).
The bug now fixed could have triggered a core dump if
an unknown cipher name was used in crypto functions.
* erts: Erlang/OTP can now be built on macOS Catalina (10.15).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Oct 15 16:35:54 UTC 2019 - matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Changes for 22.1.3:
* inets: Add HTTP server error logging vi logger
- Changes for 22.1.2:
* erts: Added the environment variable ERLC_SERVER_ID, which
allows multiple compile servers to run separately under the
same user.
- Changes for 22.1.1:
* erts: A terminating process sending distributed 'EXIT' or
'DOWN' signals while terminating could end up in a state where
no progress at all was made. This was triggered by a
distribution channel that the terminating process was sending
on got busy. This bug has existed since ERTS version 10.4 (OTP
22.0).
* erts: When communicating with a simultaneously exiting port via
the erlang:port_*() BIFs one could sometimes get stray {Ref,
What} messages. Where Ref was a reference and What usually were
the atom badarg.
* snmp: Made it possible to add 'extra socket options' to the
(gen_udp) socket open call (for both manager and agent). A new
option has been added, extra_sock_opts, which makes it possible
for the user to add a list of extra socket options that will be
appended to the other socket options for the open call. See the
snmp application config man page (erl -man 6 snmp) or the
"Configuring the application" chapter of the Users Guide for
more info.
* compiler: Fixed a bug in the bit-syntax optimization pass that
could crash the compiler.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Sep 22 08:21:20 UTC 2019 - matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Changes for 22.1:
* kernel: The type specification for gen_sctp:connect/4,5 has
been corrected.
* kernel: Extra -mode flags given to erl are ignored with a
warning.
* kernel: Fix type spec for seq_trace:set_token/2.
* kernel: logger:compare_levels/2 would fail with a badarg
exception if given the values all or none as any of the
parameters. This is now corrected.
* kernel: Fix bug where the log file in logger_std_h would not be
closed when the inode of the file changed. This would in turn
cause a file descriptor leak when tools like logrotate are
used.
* kernel: Fix a race condition in the debugging function
net_kernel:nodes_info/0.
* kernel: Fix race condition when closing a file opened in
compressed or delayed_write mode.
* kernel: The possibility to send ancillary data, in particular
the TOS field, has been added to gen_udp:send/4,5.
* kernel: If the log file was given with relative path, the
standard logger handler (logger_std_h) would store the file
name with relative path. If the current directory of the node
was later changed, a new file would be created relative the new
current directory, potentially failing with an enoent if the
new directory did not exist. This is now corrected and
logger_std_h always stores the log file name as an absolute
path, calculated from the current directory at the time of the
handler startup.
* kernel: Support local sockets with inet:i/0.
* observer: Fix bug after a user followed link on a pid from an
expanded term window.
* observer: Improved dark mode colors on Linux.
* mnesia: mnesia:add_table_copy/3 could cause a deadlock if
called when a new node was starting.
* mnesia: Transactions with sticky locks could with async_asym
transactions be committed in the wrong order, since asym
transaction are spawned on the remote nodes. To fix this bug
the communication protocol between mnesia nodes had to be
updated, thus mnesia will no longer be able to connect to nodes
earlier than mnesia-4.14 , OTP-19.0. *** POTENTIAL
INCOMPATIBILITY ***
* stdlib: re:run() now yields when validating utf8 in a large
subject.
* stdlib: Upgraded the ERTS internal PCRE library from version
8.42 to version 8.43. See
http://pcre.org/original/changelog.txt for information about
changes made to PCRE. This library implements major parts of
the re regular expressions module.
* stdlib: The bug with ID ERL-717 has been fixed. The functions
io:columns() and io:rows() only worked correctly inside
interactive erlang shells before this fix. These functions
returned {error,enotsup} before this fix even if stdout and
stdin were connected to a terminal when they were invoked from
an escript or a program started with e.g., erl -noshell.
* stdlib: Fixed handling of ".." and "@" in wildcards. ".." would
only work when preceded by a literal pattern such as in "a/..",
not when preceded by wildcard characters such as in "*/..". The
combination "@/.." was also broken, and in addition "@" in a
pattern could degrade performance of the wildcard matching.
* stdlib: Make sure ets:fun2ms() can handle ++/2 in the head of
functions when called from the shell.
* stdlib: Debugging of time-outs in gen_statem has been improved.
Starting a time-out is now logged in sys:log and sys:trace.
Running time-outs are visible in server crash logs, and with
sys:get_status. Due to this system events {start_timer, Action,
State} and {insert_timout, Event, State} have been added, which
may surprise tools that rely on the format of these events. New
features: The EventContent of a running time-out can be updated
with {TimeoutType, update, NewEventContent}. Running time-outs
can be cancelled with {TimeoutType, cancel} which is more
readable than using Time = infinity. *** POTENTIAL
INCOMPATIBILITY ***
* stdlib: re:run() now avoids validating utf8 in the subject more
than once in the same call. This validation could previously be
performed multiple times when the global option was passed.
* stdlib: ETS ordered_set tables with write_concurrency enabled
has got a performance issue fixed. There were no limits for the
values of internal statistics counters before this fix. This
could result in that the data structure sometimes reacted
slowly to a change in how many parallel processes were using
it.
* stdlib: The ordsets:union/1 is now faster when passed a long
list of ordsets.
* stdlib: unicode:characters_to_binary() could return very small
binaries as reference counted off heap binaries. This could
cause an unnecessary large memory usage and an unnecessary load
on the binary allocator. Small binaries are now always returned
as heap binaries.
* stdlib: Display a more meaningful error message when a bad I/O
server is used in a script written in Erlang (escript).
* stdlib: New feature ets:info(_, binary) to get information
about all reference counted binaries kept by a table. This is
the same kind of debug information that process_info(_, binary)
returns for a process.
* stdlib: Corrected ETS documentation about the behavior of
compiled match specifications when serialized through external
format.
* tools: cover would fail to start if two processes tried to
start it at the exact same time.
* common_test: If a ct hook is installed in the suite/0 function
in a test suite, then the hook's terminate/1 function would be
called several times without it's init/2 function being called
first. This is now corrected.
* common_test: If init_per_testcase fails, the test itself is
skipped. According to the documentation, it should be possible
to change the result to failed in a hook function. The only
available hook function in this case is post_init_per_testcase,
but changing the return value there did not affect the test
case result. This is now corrected.
* common_test: Add ct_netconfc support for NETCONF 1.1 (RFC
6241). The 1.1 base capability can be sent in hello, and RFC
6242 chunk framing is applied when both client and server
advertise 1.1 support.
* common_test: Correct lib_dir paths in common_tests opaque data
structure that is passed to ct_release_test callback modules in
functions upgrade_init/2, upgrade_upgraded/2 and
upgrade_downgraded/2. The incorrect paths may cause confusion
when debugging although it will not cause any incorrect
behavior on the part of common_test as it is currently not
used.
* erts: If you set {linger,{true,0}} on a gen_tcp listen socket,
accept a connection on that socket, and then close the accepted
socket, now the linger zero setting is transferred to the
accepted socket. Before this correction that information was
lost and the close behaviour on the accepted socket incorrect.
* erts: Sending ancillary data implemented in OTP-15747
accidentally left behind test code that caused all UDP sends to
fail on Windows. This has now been fixed.
* erts: In the socket nif, used invalid flags when if-def'ing for
supported TCP flags: TCP_MAXSEG and TCP_NODELAY (the support
function).
* erts: Fixed memory leaks in experimental socket module.
* erts: re:run() now yields when validating utf8 in a large
subject.
* erts: Fixed bug in seq_trace:set_token(label,Term) which could
cause VM crash if Term was heap allocated (not an atom, small
integer, local pid or port). Bug exists since OTP 21.0 when
terms other than small integers were first allowed as labels.
* erts: Extra -mode flags given to erl are ignored with a
warning.
* erts: Don't loop indefinitely when --enable-pgo is given to
configure, but compiler does not support pgo.
* erts: Fix seq_trace:print/2 not to raise badarg exception if
label is not a small integer. Bug exists since OTP 21.0.
* erts: Fixed hipe_flush_icache_range for non-Linux OS on ARM.
* erts: The fix in OTP-15871 was too conservative and disabled
the offending load-time optimization in some cases where it was
safe.
* erts: Upgraded the ERTS internal PCRE library from version 8.42
to version 8.43. See http://pcre.org/original/changelog.txt for
information about changes made to PCRE. This library implements
major parts of the re regular expressions module.
* erts: Fix race condition when closing a socket while using
{active,N} on Windows.
* erts: Allow more than one -config command line option to erl on
Windows to conform with other OS.
* erts: Fix so that ERL_FLAGS environment variable does not
interfere with command line arguments. Before this fix you
could write: ERL_FLAGS="10" erl +S and erlang would start as if
+S had been given the argument 10.
* erts: The bug with ID ERL-717 has been fixed. The functions
io:columns() and io:rows() only worked correctly inside
interactive erlang shells before this fix. These functions
returned {error,enotsup} before this fix even if stdout and
stdin were connected to a terminal when they were invoked from
an escript or a program started with e.g., erl -noshell.
* erts: Do not use named label in ethread.c inline assemble. This
allows erts to be compiled using gcc 9.1.0 with LTO enabled.
* erts: erlang:fun_to_list/1 will now escape the module and
function name when necessary.
* erts: process_info(P,binary) would neglect to look through heap
fragments, potentially missing a few binaries associated with
the process.
* erts: HiPE is now automatically disabled on systems with non-
glibc implementation (for instance musl). This is because musl
does not provide the API's for guaranteeing that signals are
delivered on the correct native stack.
* erts: Fixed bug triggered if a process is killed during call to
persistent_term:put or persistent_term:erase.
* erts: Add units to all memory slogans in the crash dump
documentation.
* erts: Fix a bug in binary_to_term that would crash the emulator
if a term larger than 16GB was to be decoded.
* erts: Fixed bug related to an exiting process sending EXIT and
DOWN signals to remote linked/monitored processes. Bugs exists
since OTP 22.0.
* erts: erlc can now automatically use a compile server to avoid
starting an Erlang system for each file to be compiled in a
multi-file project. See the documentation for how to enable it.
* erts: The possibility to send ancillary data, in particular the
TOS field, has been added to gen_udp:send/4,5.
* erts: The net module has been split into 'net' (kernel) and
prim_net (preloaded).
* erts: Socket counters now works as expected and can also be
extracted with the (new) info function.
* erts: re:run() now avoids validating utf8 in the subject more
than once in the same call. This validation could previously be
performed multiple times when the global option was passed.
* erts: The un-documented function erlang:dist_get_stat/1 now
returns the real value of what the distribution queue contains
instead of a boolean.
* erts: ETS ordered_set tables with write_concurrency enabled has
got a performance issue fixed. There were no limits for the
values of internal statistics counters before this fix. This
could result in that the data structure sometimes reacted
slowly to a change in how many parallel processes were using
it.
* erts: Optimize the reception of large distribution messages.
* erts: Binary matching and functions like split_binary/2 will
now create heap binaries when the results are small enough,
reducing the chances of small sub-binaries keeping large
binaries alive.
* erts: Fixed rare emulator crash in instrument:allocations/0-1.
* erts: Ports could pass very small binaries as reference counted
off heap binaries to processes. This could cause an unnecessary
large memory usage and an unnecessary load on the binary
allocator. Small binaries are now always passed as heap
binaries to processes.
* erts: unicode:characters_to_binary() could return very small
binaries as reference counted off heap binaries. This could
cause an unnecessary large memory usage and an unnecessary load
on the binary allocator. Small binaries are now always returned
as heap binaries.
* erts: Improved erl_nif documentation regarding on_load and
Erlang stub/fallback functions.
* erts: New feature ets:info(_, binary) to get information about
all reference counted binaries kept by a table. This is the
same kind of debug information that process_info(_, binary)
returns for a process.
* erl_docgen: Update the documentation build support to handle
FOP 2.1 .
* ftp: A possibly infinite loop when receiving messages divided
in parts is removed.
* dialyzer: Allow native compilation when using Dialyzer from
Erlang. The options native (defaults to false) and native_cache
have been added.
* eunit: Handle get_until request with explicit encoding in the
implementation of the I/O protocol.
* snmp: Fix various minor issues related to Dialyzer. Mostly
these are dialyzer warnings, but there was also some minor bugs
detected by Dialyzer.
* snmp: Fixed a dets usage problem detected by dialyzer.
* snmp: The function snmp:print_version_info() prints various
version info. For each module a number of items are printed,
such as app vsn and md5 digest. And an attempt was also made to
print "compile time". This used to be available in the
module_info for each module, but has now been removed.
* snmp: The use of the deprecated random module has been replaced
the with rand module.
* snmp: Removed use of the deprecated function
erlang:get_stacktrace(). Instead make use of the 'catch
Class:Error:Stacktrace' feature.
* syntax_tools: Add missing calls to erl_syntax:unwrap/1. The
nodes concerned represent names and values of maps and map
types.
* wx: Fix a driver bug that could crashes when allocating memory.
* erl_interface: Fix bugs in ei_print_term for binaries and bit
strings causing incorrect output.
* erl_interface: Fixed bug in ei_decode_fun for very old fun
encoding format. Bug exist since OTP 22.0.
* erl_interface: ei_print_term() now supports printing of maps
and funs.
* xmerl: xmerl_sax_parser crashed during charset detection when
the xml declarations attribute values was missing the closing
quotation (' or ").
* ssl: Handling of zero size fragments in TLS could cause an
infinite loop. This has now been corrected.
* ssl: DTLS record check needs to consider that a resent hello
message can have a different version than the negotiated.
* ssl: Basic support for TLS 1.3 Client for experimental use. For
more information see the Standards Compliance chapter of the
User's Guide.
* ssl: Correct solution for retaining tcp flow control OTP-15802
(ERL-934) as to not break ssl:recv as reported in (ERL-938)
* ssl: Enhance dialyzer specs to reflect implementation better
and avoid dialyzer warnings for the user that wants to use TLS
with unix domain sockets.
* ssl: Add support for ECDSA signature algorithms in TLS 1.3.
* ssl: Correct error handling of TLS downgrade, possible return
values form ssl:close/2 when downgrading is {ok, Port} or
{error, Reason}, it could happen that only ok was returned
instead of {error, closed} when downgrade failed due to that
the peer closed the TCP connection.
* os_mon: Fix disk_sup to ignore squashfs on Linux when
determining if a mounted filesystem is full or not.
* os_mon: Fix bug where cpu_sup:util() always returned 100% on
systems not using gnu libc, for example Alpine OS.
* ssh: Fixed wrong type definition for the daemon option
subsystems.
* ssh: Fixed a possible SSH logging crash if there was a problem
in an early stage of session setup.
* ssh: The documentation for the modules ssh_connection, ssh_sftp
and ssh_sftpd are now generated from the -spec:s.
* ssh: Internal cleanup including removal of the internal file
ssh_userauth.hrl.
* ssh: Removed unused definitions in ssh.hrl.
* ssh: Removed unused fields in the internal #connection{}
record.
* ssh: To get information of a connection_ref() from for example
ssh:connect/3, there was previously one function available
namely ssh:connection_info/2. This ticket adds
ssh:connection_info/1 which returns all information. For
daemons (servers) started with for example ssh:daemon/2 the
function ssh:daemon_info/1 returning all information was
available. This ticket adds ssh:daemon_info/2 which returns
only the information specified in the second argument. The info
of connections and of daemons now also includes the item
'options'. Only those options that does not have their default
values are returned. For a connection also the items
'algorithms' and 'channels' are added.
* inets: httpd - Accept singel LF as line terminator
* inets: mod_esi will now always propagate the actual HTTP status
code that it answered with, to later mod-modules, and not in
some cases hardcode 200.
* compiler: Code such as the following would crash the compiler
in OTP 22: [some_atom = fun some_function/1]
* compiler: Compilation could get really slow (in the order of
minutes instead of seconds) when compiling huge functions.
(Thanks to Kostis Sagonas for reporting this bug.)
* compiler: Fixed a bug in the validator that could reject valid
code.
* compiler: In rare circumstances, when two clauses had identical
bodies and guard tests that tested a single boolean variable,
the guard test for the second clause could be discarded,
executing the second clause unconditionally if the first clause
was not executed.
* compiler: Fixed extremely slow compilation for huge functions
doing predominantly pattern matching.
* compiler: The compiler could generate unsafe code (that would
crash the runtime system) for map pattern matching. The code
could be unsafe if the matched key was not present in the map
at runtime.
* compiler: Correct code using try/after could fail to compile
when using the option 'no_type_opt'.
* compiler: The compiler could crash when compiling code that
called 'length/1' on a binary extracted using the binary
syntax.
* compiler: Fixed a bug where the compiler could fail with an
internal consistency failure error when compiling receive
statements.
* compiler: Fixed a problem where the compiler would crash when
compiling binary matching in a function head.
* public_key: Support Password based encryption with AES
* public_key: Change dialyzer spec to avoid confusion
* runtime_tools: Fix dbg:stop_clear/0 to also clear trace events
(send and 'receive').
* megaco: Fix various minor issues related to Dialyzer. Mostly
these are dialyzer warnings, but there was also some minor bugs
detected by Dialyzer.
* crypto: The implementation of crypto_one_time/4 is adjusted to
match the type specification. The spec and the black-box
behaviour of the function are unchanged. Some details: Both the
spec and the implementation were correct seen separately. But
with both of them combined simultaneously with
crypto_one_time/5 which was called by the implementation of
crypto_one_time/4, an (obvious) error was detected by a
Dialyzer with more thorough checking than usual.
* crypto: When using crypto with FIPS mode enabled, the digests
were not correctly handled.
* crypto: A memory leak in error handling code in
ng_crypto_init_nif is fixed.
* crypto: Fixed the broken static build of the crypto nifs
* crypto: The Message Authentication Codes (MAC) CMAC, HMAC and
Poly1305 are unified into common functions in the New Crypto
API. See the manual for CRYPTO.
* sasl: The net module has been split into 'net' (kernel) and
prim_net (preloaded).
* jinterface: Replaced deprecated <tt> with <code> in
documentation.

- Add patch 0001-erts-Do-not-use-named-no_cpuid-label-in-asm.patch:
fix boo#1142913
- Changes for 22.0.7:
* compiler: Fixed a compiler crash introduced in 22.0.6
(OTP-15952).
- Changes for 22.0.6:
* compiler: Fixed an unsafe optimization when matching
tuple_size/1 outside of guards, which could crash the emulator
if the argument was not a tuple.
* compiler: Fixed a rare bug that could cause the wrong kind of
exception to be thrown when a BIF failed in a function that
matched bitstrings.
* compiler: Fixed a bug where receive statements inside try/catch
blocks could return incorrect results.
* ssl: Enhance error handling for erroneous alerts from the peer.
* hipe: The HiPE compiler would badly miscompile certain
try/catch expressions, so it will now refuse to compile modules
containing try or catch. As a consequence of this, dialyzer
will no longer compile key modules to native code. ***

POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***
- Changes for 22.0.5:
* inets: Fix a regression in http client that causes a crash when
request URI has no scheme.
* ssl: Fix handling of certificate decoding problems in TLS 1.3
similarly as in TLS 1.2.
* ssl: Hibernation now works as expected in all cases, was
accidently broken by optimization efforts.
* ssl: Fix interoperability problems with openssl when the TLS
1.3 server is configured wirh the option signature_algs_cert.
* dialyzer: Make sure Dialyzer does not crash if the formatting
of results fails. Instead of crashing, an unformatted version
of the results is returned.
* erts: An invalid value test caused the socket:setopt(Socket,
ip, add_membership, ip_mreq()) to fail with badarg. The same
for drop_membership.
* erts: Fixed bug causing VM crash when doing textual dump of a
process containing an unhandled monitor down signal. Textual
process dumps can be done with erlang:system_info(procs), trace
feature process_dump, Erlang shell break menu and a crashdump.
Bug exist since OTP 21.0.
* erts: lists:subtract/2 would produce incorrect results for some
inputs on 64-bit platforms.
* erts: Fixed a bug in the loader that was similar to OTP-15938,
yielding incorrect code for some inputs on 64-bit platforms.
* erts: Fixed bug causing scheduler threads in rare cases to
block spinnning indefinitely. Bug exists since OTP 21.0.

- Version 22.0.4:
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-22.0.4.README
- Bug Fixes
* erts: Fixed a buffer overflow when binary_to_existing_atom/2
and list_to_existing_atom/2 was used with the latin1
encoding.
* erts: The runtime system disconnected a connection if it
received an exit/2 signal where the recipient was a
process on an old incarnation of the current node. That
is, the receiving node had the same node name, but
another "creation" number. The signal will now just be
dropped since the receiving process no longer exists.
* kernel: user/user_drv could respond to io requests before they
had been processed, which could cause data to be
dropped if the emulator was halted soon after a call to
io:format/2, such as in an escript.
* ssl: Correct handshake handling, might cause strange
symptoms such as ASN.1 certificate decoding issues.
* ssl: Fix handling of the signature_algorithms_cert extension
in the ClientHello handshake message.
* ssl:Handle new ClientHello extensions when handshake is
paused by the {handshake, hello} ssl option.

- Version 22.0:
- Potential Incompatibilities:
* gen_* behaviours: If logging of the last N messages through
sys:log/2,3 is active for the server, this log is included in
the terminate report.
* reltool: A new element, Opts, can now be included in a rel
tuple in the reltool release specific configuration format:
{rel, Name, Vsn, RelApps, Opts}.
* All external pids/ports/refs created by erlang:list_to_pid and
similar functions now compare equal to any other pid/port/ref
with same number from that node.
* The old legacy erl_interface library is deprecated as of OTP
22, and will be removed in OTP 23. This does not apply to the
ei library.
* VxWorks is deprecated as of OTP 22 and will be removed in OTP
23.
- New Features:
* Support for Erlang Distribution protocol to split the payload
of large messages into several fragments.
* ETS option write_concurrency now also effects and improves
scalability of ordered_set tables.
* The length/1 BIF used to calculate the length of the list in
one go without yielding, even if the list was very long. Now it
yields when called with long lists.
* A new (still experimental) module socket is introduced. It is
implemented as a NIF and the idea is that it shall be as "close
as possible" to the OS level socket interface.
* Added the NIF function enif_term_type, which helps avoid long
sequences of enif_is_xyz by returning the type of the given
term. This is especially helpful for NIFs that serialize terms,
such as JSON encoders, where it can improve both performance
and readability.
* The compiler has been rewritten to internally use an
intermediate representation based on Static Single Assignment
(SSA). The new intermediate representation makes more
optimizations possible.
* All compiler options that can be given in the source file can
now be given in the option list on the command line for erlc.
* In OTP 22, HiPE (the native code compiler) is not fully
functional. The reasons for this are new BEAM instructions for
binary matching that the HiPE native code compiler does not
support. If erlc is invoked with the +native option, and if any
of the new binary matching instructions are used, the compiler
will issue a warning and produce a BEAM file without native
code.
* Cover now uses the counters module instead of ets for updating
counters. The new function cover:local_only/0 allows running
Cover in a restricted but faster local-only mode. The increase
in speed will vary depending on the type of code being
cover-compiled, as an example the compiler test suite runs more
than twice as fast with the new Cover.
* A simple socket API is provided through the socket module. This
is a low level API that does *not* replace gen_[tcp|udp|sctp].
It is intended to *eventually* replace the inet driver. It also
provides a basic API that facilitates the implementation of
other protocols than TCP, UDP and SCTP. Known issues are; No
support for the Windows OS (currently), a small term leakage.
This feature will be classed as experimental in OTP 22.
* SSL: now uses the new logger API, including log levels and
verbose debug logging.
* SSL: Basic support for TLS 1.3 Server for experimental use.
* crypto: The new hash_info/1 and cipher_info/1 functions returns
maps with information about the hash or cipher in the argument.
- The application otp_mibs has been removed from OTP.

- Update to 21.3.8.1:
- Changes for 21.3.8.1:
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.3.8.1.README
* erts: Fixed a buffer overflow when binary_to_existing_atom/2
and list_to_existing_atom/2 was used with the latin1
encoding.
* ssl: Correct solution for retaining tcp flow control
OTP-15802 (ERL-934) as to not break ssl:recv as
reported in (ERL-938)
* tools: cover would fail to start if two processes tried to
start it at the exact same time.
- Update to 21.3.8:
- Changes for 21.3.8:
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.3.8.README
* common_test: The test result when a hook function fails is in
general the same as if the function that the hook is
associated with fails. For example, if
post_init_per_testcase fails the result is that the
test case is skipped, as is the case when
init_per_testcase fails.This, however, was earlier not
true for timetrap timeouts or other error situations
where the process running the hook function was killed.
This is now corrected, so the error handling should be
the same no matter how the hook function fails.
Related Id(s): ERIERL-334
* common_test: In some rare cases, when two common_test nodes used the
same log directory, a timing problem could occur which
caused common_test to crash because it's log cache file
was unexpectedly empty. This is now corrected.
Related Id(s): ERIERL-342
* common_test: Two new common_test hook functions are introduced:
post_groups/2, which is called after Suite:groups/0
post_all/3, which is called after Suite:all/0
A new term, {testcase,TestCase,RepeatProperties} is now
also allowed in the return from all/0. This can be used
for repeating a single test case a specific number of
times, or until it fails or succeeds once.
* eldap, public_key, ssl: Back port of bug fix ERL-893 from OTP-22 and document
enhancements that will solve dialyzer warnings for
users of the ssl application.
This change also affects public_key, eldap (and inet doc).
Related Id(s): ERL-893, ERL-929, PR-2215
* erl_interface: erl_interface/ei refused to use node names with an
alive name (the part of the node name preceding the @
sign) longer than 63 characters and a host name longer
than 64 characters. The total amount of characters
allowed in a node name (alivename@hostname) was thus
limited to 128 characters. These limits applied both to
the own node name as well as node names of other nodes.
Ordinary Erlang nodes limit the node name length to 256
characters, which meant that you could not communicate
with certain Erlang nodes due to their node name used.
erl_interface/ei now allow the total amount of
characters in a node name to be up to 256 characters.
These characters may be distributed between alive name
and host name in whatever way needed. That is, the
maximum amount of characters in the alive name may be
254 and the maximum amount of characters in the host
name may be 254, but in total the node name must not
exceed 256 characters.
* erts: Fixed more bugs in process_info(reductions) causing it
to sometimes behave non-monotonic. That is, a
subsequent call toward the same process could return a
lower reduction value.
Related Id(s): ERIERL-337, OTP-15709
* ssl: Missing check of size of user_data_buffer made internal
socket behave as an active socket instead of active N.
This could cause memory problems.
* eldap, public_key, ssl: Back port of bug fix ERL-893 from OTP-22 and document
enhancements that will solve dialyzer warnings for
users of the ssl application.
This change also affects public_key, eldap (and inet doc).
* stdlib: A bug in gen_statem has been fixed where the internal
timeout message could arrive as an info to the callback
module during high load due to incorrect use of
asynchronous timer cancel.

- Update to 21.3.7:
- Changes for 21.3.7:
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.3.7.README
* ssh: When an SSH server receives the very first message on a
new TCP connection, and that message is not the
expected one, the 64 first bytes of the received
message are now dumped in the INFO REPORT that reports
the Protocol Error.
This facilitates the debugging of who sends the bad
message or of detecting a possible port scanning

- Update to 21.3.5:
- Changes for 21.3.5:
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.3.5.README
* diameter: Fix inadvertently broad monitor that resulted in
gen_server cast messages to hidden nodes from module
diameter_dist.
* erts: Add missing documentation of new external tags NEW_PID,
NEW_PORT and NEWER_REFERENCE introduced in OTP 19.
These new tags are planned to be "activated" in OTP 23
when distribution capability flag DFLAG_BIG_CREATION
becomes mandatory. Older nodes (>= 19) are able to
decode these new tags and send them back to the new
node. Nodes older than OTP 23 will however never encode
their own local pids, ports and references using the
new tags.
* inets: Fix the internal handling of the option
erl_script_timeout in httpd. If explicit
erl_script_timeout value was supplied in seconds it was
not correctly converted to millisecond units for
internal usage.
This change fixes the handling of erl_script_timeout in
all possible configuration scenarios.

* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.3.4.README
* crypto: Fixed build link error on Windows. Unresolved symbol
'bcmp'.
* erl_interface: Fix handling of Makefile dependencies so that parallel
make works properly.
* erts: Fix erlang:open_port/2 with the fd option to correctly
cleanup the pollset when the port is closed. Before
this fix there would be error printouts sent to logger
when the same fd was reused in a new port.
* ssh: The callback ssh_channel:init/1 was missing in OTP-21
* ssh: If a client was connected to an server on an already
open socket, the callback fun(PeerName,FingerPrint) in
the accept_callback option passed the local name in the
argument PeerName instead of the remote name.
* common_test: OTP internal test improvements.

* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.3.3.README
* erts: Fixed a bug in seq_trace:reset_trace/0 that could crash
the emulator.
* erts: Fixed bug in process_info(reductions) causing it to
sometimes return invalid results.
* kernel/stdlib: Fixed a performance regression when reading files
opened with the compressed flag.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Mar 26 09:18:44 UTC 2019 - Gabriele Santomaggio <g.santomaggio@gmail.com>
- Update to 21.3.2:
- Changes for 21.3.2:
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.3.2.README
* erts: If a suspend/resume signal pair was sent to a process
while it was executing dirty, the receiving process
could later end up in a suspended state indefinitely.
This bug was introduced in ERTS version 10.0 (OTP
21.0).
* etrs: Fix a possible deadlock when terminating the ERTS
caused by a dirty scheduler not releasing it's
run-queue lock when terminating.
* xmerl: Handling of character references in attributes are
fixed.
* xmerl: Normalization of whitespace characters in attributes
are fixed so it works when character references are
used.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Mar 20 11:32:44 UTC 2019 - Gabriele Santomaggio <g.santomaggio@gmail.com>
- Update to 21.3.1:
- Changes for 21.3.1:
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.3.1.README
* erl_interface: Fixed two bugs in the erl_call program. A missing
initialization (introduced in erl_interface-3.11) which
either caused a crash or failure to connect to or start
a node, and an incorrectly calculated timeout which
could cause failure to start an erlang node. These bugs
only caused failures on some platforms.
* ssl: The timeout for a passive receive was sometimes not
cancelled and later caused a server crash. This bug has
now been corrected.
* ssl: Add tag for passive message (active N) in cb_info to
retain transport transparency.
- Update to 21.3:
- Changes for 21.3:
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.3.README
* Erlang/OTP 21.3 is the third service release for the 21st major release
with improvements, as well as a few features
* Highlights
* Kernel: The standard logger handler, logger_std_h, now has a new internal
feature for log rotation. For full information see the documentation.
* SSL:The Reason part of the error return from the functions connect and
handshake has a better and documented format. This is a potential
incompatibility. See the documentation.
Refactoring of state handling has improved the TLS application data
throughput and reduced CPU overhead
Code optimizations has reduced CPU load for encryption/decryption,
especially for Erlang's distribution protocol over TLS
Now supports active N
* Erl_interface: Support for plugin of a user supplied socket implementation has been added.
* OTP:The HTML reference documentation now shows the OTP version where
modules and functions were first introduced. Versions of OTP older than R13B04 is not shown in the reference
documentation
* For a full list of details see:
http://erlang.org/download/otp_src_21.3.readme
- Update to 21.2.7:
- Changes for 21.2.7:
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.2.7.README
* erts, otp: Fixes of install/release phase in build system.
-- The source tree was modified when
installing/releasing and/or applying a patch.
-- Some files were installed with wrong access rights.
-- If applying a patch (using otp_patch_apply) as
another user (except root) than the user that built the
source, the documentation was not properly updated.
* erts, kernel: Setting the recbuf size of an inet socket the buffer is
also automatically increased. Fix a bug where the auto
adjustment of inet buffer size would be triggered even
if an explicit inet buffer size had already been set.
* erts: Reading from UDP using active true or active N mode has
been optimized when more packets than specified by
read_packets are available on the socket.
* erts, kernel: Setting the recbuf size of an inet socket the buffer is
also automatically increased. Fix a bug where the auto
adjustment of inet buffer size would be triggered even
if an explicit inet buffer size had already been set.

- Update to 21.2.6:
- Changes for 21.2.6:
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.2.6.README
* erts: When using the {linger,{true,T}} option;
gen_tcp:listen/2 used the full linger time before
returning for example eaddrinuse. This bug has now been
corrected.
* stdlib: Optimize pretty printing of terms. The slower behaviour
was introduced in Erlang/OTP 20.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Feb 5 10:43:37 UTC 2019 - Gabriele Santomaggio <g.santomaggio@gmail.com>
- Update to 21.2.5:
- Changes for 21.2.5:
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.2.5.README
* inets: Fixed bug that causes a crash in http client when using
hostnames (e.g. localhost) with the the option
ipv6_host_with_brackets set to true.
This change also fixes a regression: httpc:request
fails with connection error (nxdomain) if option
ipv6_host_with_brackets set to true and host component
of the URI is an IPv6 address.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jan 25 15:26:37 UTC 2019 - Gabriele Santomaggio <g.santomaggio@gmail.com>
- update to 21.2.4:
- Changes for 21.2.4:
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.2.4.README
* erts: Fix bug where doing a gen_tcp:send on a socket with
delay_send set to true could cause a segfault if the
other side closes the connection.
Bug was introduced in erts-10.2 (OTP-21.2).
* erts: Fix a race condition when a port program closes that
could result in the next started port to hang during
startup.
Bug was introduced in erts-10.0 (OTP-21.0).
* erts: Fix a bug where polling for external events could be
delayed for a very long time if all active schedulers
were 100% loaded.
Bug was introduced in erts-10.2 (OTP-21.2).
* inets: Make sure ipv6 addresses with brackets in URIs are
converted correctly before passing to lower level
functions like gen_tcp and ssl functions. Could cause
connection to fail.
- update to 21.2.3:
- Changes for 21.2.3:
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.2.3.README
* compiler: An optimization that avoided allocation of a stack
frame for some case expressions was introduced in OTP
21. (ERL-504/OTP-14808) It turns out that in rare
circumstances, this optimization is not safe.
Therefore, this optimization has been disabled.
* erts: Fixed a crash when dangling files were closed after
init:restart/0.
* erts: A bug that could cause dirty schedulers to become
unresponsive has been fixed.
* ssl: Fix encoding of the SRP extension length field in ssl.
The old encoding of the SRP extension length could
cause interoperability problems with third party SSL
implementations when SRP was used.
* ssl: Guarantee active once data delivery, handling TCP
stream properly.
Correct gen_statem returns for some error cases
* xmerl: The charset detection parsing crash in some cases when
the XML directive is not syntactic correct.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Dec 31 17:59:37 UTC 2018 - Gabriele Santomaggio <g.santomaggio@gmail.com>
- update to 21.2.2:
- Changes for 21.2.2:
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.2.2.README
* ssh: Fixed port leakage if a ssh:daemon call failed.
- update to 21.2.1:
- Changes for 21.2.1:
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.2.1.README
* erts: Fixed bug on big endian architectures when changing
file permissions or ownership with file:change_mode,
change_owner, change_group or write_file_info. Bug
exists since OTP-21.0.
* erts: Fixed bug in operator band of two negative operands
causing erroneous result if the absolute value of one
of the operands have the lowest N*W bits as zero and
the other absolute value is not larger than N*W bits. N
is an integer of 1 or larger and W is 32 or 64
depending on word size.
* ssl: Fixed renegotiation bug. Client did not handle server
initiated renegotiation correctly after rewrite to two
connection processes, due to ERL-622 commit
d87ac1c55188f5ba5cdf72384125d94d42118c18. This could
manifest it self as a " bad_record_mac" alert.
Also included are some optimizations
- update to 21.2:
- Changes for 21.2:
* http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.2.README
* HIGHLIGHTS
* erts, sasl: New counters and atomics modules supplies access to
highly efficient operations on mutable fixed word sized
variables.
* erts: There is a new module persistent_term that implements a
term storage suitable for terms that are frequently
used but never or infrequently updated. Lookups are
done in constant time without copying the terms.
* ssh: Requires OpenSSL 1.1.1 or higher as cryptolib under the
OTP application crypto.
* ssl: *** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***
ssl now uses active n internally to boost performance.
Old active once behavior can be restored by setting
application variable see manual page for ssl
application (man 6).
* erts: Add a new pollset that is made to handle sockets that
use {active, true} or {active, N}. The new pollset will
not be polled by a pollthread, but instead polled by a
normal scheduler.
This change was made because of the overhead associated
with constantly having to re-apply the ONESHOT
mechanism on fds that all input events were
interesting.
The new pollset is only active on platforms that
support concurrent kernel poll updates, i.e. Linux and
BSD.
* POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITIES:
kernel: A new function, logger:update_handler_config/3 is
added, and the handler callback changing_config now has
a new argument, SetOrUpdate, which indicates if the
configuration change comes from set_handler_config/2,3
or update_handler_config/2,3.
This allows the handler to consistently merge the new
configuration with the old (if the change comes from
update_handler_config/2,3) or with the default (if the
change comes from set_handler_config/2,3).
The built-in handlers logger_std_h and
logger_disk_log_h are updated accordingly. A bug which
could cause inconsistency between the handlers'
internal state and the stored configuration is also
corrected.
* ssl: ssl now uses active n internally to boost performance.
Old active once behavior can be restored by setting
application variable see manual page for ssl
application (man 6).

Fri Nov 2 21:24:41 UTC 2018 - Gabriele Santomaggio <g.santomaggio@gmail.com>
- update to 21.1.1:
- Changes for 21.1.1:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.1.1.README
* erts: Fixed a memory leak on errors when reading files.
* ssl: From ssl-9.0.2. CLOSE ALERTS could under some
circumstances be encoded using an incorrect cipher
state. This would cause the peer to regard them as
unknown messages.
* ssl: Correct handling of socket packet option with new TLS
sender process, from ssl-9.0.2. When changing the
socket option {packet, 1|2|3|4} with ssl:setopts/2 the
option must internally be propagated to the sender
process as well as the reader process as this
particular option also affects the data to be sent.
* eldap: A race condition at close could cause the eldap client
to exit with a badarg message as cause.
- Changes for 21.1:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.1.README
* ssh: The key exchange methods
'curve25519-sha256@libssh.org', 'curve25519-sha256' and
'curve448-sha512' are implemented. The last two are
defined in
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-curdle-ssh-curves
They all depends on that OpenSSL 1.1.1 or higher is
used as cryptolib.
* crypto: The typing in the CRYPTO and PUBLIC_KEY applications
are reworked and a few mistakes are corrected.
The documentation is now generated from the typing and
some clarifications are made.
A new chapter on Algorithm Details such as key sizes
and availability is added to the CRYPTO User's Guide.
* erts: The socket options recvtos, recvttl, recvtclass and
pktoptions have been implemented in the socket modules.
See the documentation for the gen_tcp, gen_udp and inet
modules. Note that support for these in the runtime
system is platform dependent. Especially for pktoptions
which is very Linux specific and obsoleted by the RFCs
that defined it.
* ssh: The cipher 'chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com' is now
supported if OpenSSL 1.1.1 or higher is used as
cryptolib.
- Changes for 21.0.9:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.0.9.README
* compiler: Fix a regression in OTP-15204 that removed .beam file
metadata that some external build tools relied on.
* erts: As of ERTS version 10.0 (OTP 21.0) the erl_child_setup
program, which creates port programs, ignores TERM
signals. This setting was unintentionally inherited by
port programs. Handling of TERM signals in port
programs has now been restored to the default behavior.
That is, terminate the process.
* erts: The fix made for OTP-15279 in erts-10.07 (OTP-21.0.8)
was not complete. It could cause a new connection
attempt to be incorrectly aborted in certain cases.
This fix will amend that flaw.
- Changes for 21.0.8:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.0.8.
* erts: A process could get stuck in an infinite rescheduling
loop between normal and dirty schedulers. This bug was
introduced in ERTS version 10.0.
* erts: Garbage collection of a distribution entry could cause
an emulator crash if net_kernel had not brought
previous connection attempts on it down properly.
* kernel: Fixed bug in net_kernel that could cause an emulator
crash if certain connection attempts failed. Bug exists
since kernel-6.0 (OTP-21.0).
- Changes for 21.0.7:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.0.7.
* erts: A race between termination of a process and resume of
the same process via erlang:resume_process/1 could
cause the VM to crash. This bug was introduced in erts
version 10.0 (OTP 21.0).
* erts: When tracing on running, in trace events could be lost
when a process was rescheduled between a dirty and a
normal scheduler.
- Changes for 21.0.6:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.0.6.README
* crypto: Update the crypto engine functions to handle multiple
loads of an engine.
* inets: Change status code for no mod found to handle request
to 501
* ssl: Correct cipher suite handling for ECDHE_*, the
incorrect handling could cause an incorrrect suite to
be selected and most likly fail the handshake.
- Changes for 21.0.5:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.0.5.README
* POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITIES erts:
Fixed a bug causing some Erlang references to be
inconsistently ordered. This could for example cause
failure to look up certain elements with references as
keys in search data structures. This bug was introduced
in R13B02.
* compiler: Fixed an issue where files compiled with the
+deterministic option differed if they were compiled in
a different directory but were otherwise identical.
* crypto: Fixed a node crash in crypto:compute_key(ecdh, ...)
when passing a wrongly typed Others argument.
* erts: Fixed a bug which caused an emulator crash when
enif_send() was called by a NIF that executed on a
dirty scheduler. The bug was either triggered when the
NIF called enif_send() without a message environment,
or when the process executing the NIF was send traced.
- Changes for 21.0.4:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.0.4.README
* erts: Fixed a crash when matching directly against a literal
map using a single key that had been saved on the
stack.
* erts: Fix node crash when passing a bad time option to
file:read_file_info/2.
- Changes for 21.0.3:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.0.3.README
* otp: Build support for the erlang/corba repository.
* erts: Fixed a scheduler bug that caused normal schedulers to
run dirty code.
* erts: Fixed a bug in erlang:trace_info/2 which caused the
emulator to crash when a bad argument was passed. The
bug was introduced in ERTS version 10.0.
- Changes for 21.0.2:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.0.2.README
* compiler: In rare cases involving matching of binary literal
strings, the compiler could optimize away code that
should be executed.
* compiler:There could be an internal consistency check failure
when compiling code that called map_get(Key, Map) and
then updated the same map.
* compiler: In rare circumstances, the compiler could crash in
beam_jump when compiling a floating point operation.
* erts: Fixed a rare bug that could cause processes to be
scheduled after they had been freed
* erts: Fixed a race condition in the inet driver that could
cause receive to hang when the emulator was compiled
with gcc 8.
* public_key: Fix some of the keylengths in the newly generated moduli
file in public_key are not universally supported. This
could cause the SSH key exchange
diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha* to fail.
Those keylengths are now removed.
* stdlib: Fix a bug that could cause a crash when formatting a
list of non-characters using the control sequences p or
P and limiting the output with the option chars_limit.
- Changes for 21.0.1:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.0.1.
* compiler:The compiler could crash when compiling a
complicated function that used the binary syntax.
- Changes for 21.0:
- http://erlang.org/download/otp_src_21.0.readme
* Erlang/OTP 21 is a new major release with new features, improvements as well as incompatibilities.
* Potential Incompatibilities:
- All Corba applications are now moved from the OTP repository
- A new Corba repository will be created https://github.com/erlang
- New applications ftp and tftp, moved from inets
- ssl no longer supports 3_DES cipher suites or RSA-key exchange cipher suites by default
- Erlang:monitor on a primitive node (erl_interface, jinterface, etc) will no longer fail with badarg exception.
Instead a monitor will be created, but it will only supervise the connection to the node.
* Highlights:
* Erts:
- Enhanced IO scalability
- Support for usage of distribution controller processes for alternative transports, routing etc
- compact instructions on 64bit systems for code below 4GB 20% less memory for loaded code
- Rewrite of the efile-driver with NIFs and "Dirty schedulers" resulting in faster file operations
non-smp VM removed
- link and monitor optimized for scalability

- Changes for 20.3.8.7:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-20.3.8.7.README
* crypto: Update the crypto engine functions to handle multiple
loads of an engine
* mnesia: Fixed a bug where the bag table index data was not

to 501
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Aug 14 18:57:58 UTC 2018 - matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Update to 20.3.8.5.
- Changes for 20.3.8.5:
* erts: Fixed a bug causing some Erlang references to be
inconsistently ordered. This could for example cause failure
to look up certain elements with references as keys in search
data structures. This bug was introduced in R13B02. Thanks to
Simon Cornish for finding the bug and supplying a fix.
* compiler: Fixed an issue where files compiled with the
+deterministic option differed if they were compiled in a
different directory but were otherwise identical.
* crypto: Fixed a node crash in crypto:compute_key(ecdh, ...)
when passing a wrongly typed Others argument.
* erts: Fixed a bug which caused an emulator crash when
enif_send() was called by a NIF that executed on a dirty
scheduler. The bug was either triggered when the NIF called
enif_send() without a message environment, or when the process
executing the NIF was send traced.
* erts: Fixed a bug causing some Erlang references to be
inconsistently ordered. This could for example cause failure
to look up certain elements with references as keys in search
data structures. This bug was introduced in R13B02. Thanks to
Simon Cornish for finding the bug and supplying a fix.
* mnesia: When master node is set do not force a load from
ram_copies replica when there are no available disc_copies,
since that would load an empty table. Wait until a disk
replica is available or until user explicitly force_loads the
table.
* mnesia: Allow to add replicas even if all other replicas are
down when the other replicase are not stored on disk.
* ssl: Correct handling of empty server SNI extension
* ssl: Correct cipher suite handling for ECDHE_*, the incorrect
handling could cause an incorrrect suite to be selected and
most likly fail the handshake.
- Changes for 20.3.8.4:
* asn1: A bug in ASN.1 BER decoding has been fixed. When
decoding a recursively enclosed term the length was not
propagated to that term decoding, so if the length of the
enclosed term was longer than the enclosing that error was not
dectected. A hard coded C stack limitation for decoding
recursive ASN.1 terms has been introduced. This is currently
set to 8 kWords giving a nesting depth of about 1000 levels.
Deeper terms can not be decoded, which should not be much of a
real world limitation.
- Changes for 20.3.8.3:
* erts: Fixed a race condition in the inet driver that could
cause receive to hang when the emulator was compiled with gcc8.
* erts: Fix bug in generation of erl_crash.dump, which could
cause VM to crash. Bug exist since erts-9.2 (OTP-20.2).
* ic: Fixed potential buffer overflow bugs in
oe_ei_encode_long/ulong/longlong/ulonglong functions on 64-bit
architectures. These functions expect 32 bit integers as the
IDL type "long" is defined as 32 bits. But there is nothing
preventing user code from "breaking" the interface and pass
larger values on 64-bit architectures where the C type "long"
is 64 bits.
* inets: Enhance error handling, that is mod_get will return 403
if a path is a directory and not a file.
* kernel: Non semantic change in dist_util.erl to silence
dialyzer warning.
* ssl: Improve cipher suite handling correcting ECC and TLS-1.2
requierments. Backport of solution for ERL-641
* ssl: Option keyfile defaults to certfile and should be trumped
with key. This failed for engine keys.
- Changes for 20.3.8.2:
* erl_interface: Make ei_connect and friends also accept state
ok_simultaneous during handshake, which means the other node
has initiated a connection setup that will be cancelled in
favor of this connection.
* erts: Fixed a rare bug that could cause processes to be
scheduled after they had been freed.
* ic: Fixed bug in ic causing potential buffer overrun in
funtion oe_ei_encode_atom. Bug exists since ic-4.4.4
(OTP-20.3.4).
* kernel: Fix some potential buggy behavior in how ticks are
sent on inter node distribution connections. Tick is now sent
to c-node even if there are unsent buffered data, as c-nodes
need ticks in order to send reply ticks. The amount of sent
data was also calculated wrongly when ticks were suppressed
due to unsent buffered data.
- Changes for 20.3.8.1:
* inets: Options added for setting low-level properties on the
underlying TCP connections. The options are: sock_ctrl,
sock_data_act and sock_data_pass. See the manual for details.
* ssh: SFTP clients reported the error reason "" if a non-OTP
sftp server was killed during a long file transmission. Now
the signal name (for example "KILL") will be the error reason
if the server's reason is empty. The documentation also lacked
type information about this class of errors.
* ssh: Fix ssh_sftp decode error for sftp protocol version 4
* syntax_tools: Fix a bug regarding reverting map types.
- Changes for 20.3.8:
* erts: Fixed bug in ets that could cause VM crash if process A
terminates after fixating a table and process B deletes the
table at "the same time". The table fixation could be done
with ets:safe_fixtable or if process A terminates in the
middle of a long running select or match call.
* snmp: The Snmp MIB compiler now allows using a
TEXTUAL-CONVENTION type before defining it.
- Changes for 20.3.7:
* erl_docgen: Update makefile so db_funcs.xsl is a part of the
installed application.
* erts: Fixed bug in enif_binary_to_term which could cause
memory corruption for immediate terms (atoms, small integers,
pids, ports, empty lists).
* erts: Fixed bug in erlang:system_profile/2 that could cause
superfluous {profile,_,active,_,_} messages for terminating
processes.
* inets: The option max_headers operated on the individual
header length instead of the total length of all headers. Also
headers with empty keys are now discarded.
- Changes for 20.3.6:
* crypto: If OPENSSL_NO_EC was set, the compilation of the
crypto nifs failed.
* crypto: C-compile errors for LibreSSL 2.7.0 - 2.7.2 fixed
* ssh: Host key hash erroneously calculated for clients
following draft-00 of RFC 4419, for example PuTTY
* ssh: Renegotiation could fail in some states
- Changes for 20.3.5:
* erts: Fixed a crash in heart:get_cmd/0 when the stored command
was too long.
* ssl: Proper handling of clients that choose to send an empty
answer to a certificate request.
- Changes for 20.3.4:
* erl_interface: Fix bug in ei_connect functions that may cause
failure due to insufficient buffer space for gethostbyname_r.
* erl_interface, ic: Optimize encoding/decoding for pure 7-bit
ascii atoms.
* inets: Fix broken options handling in httpc (ERL-441).
* ssh: An ssh_sftp server (running version 6) could fail if it
is told to remove a file which in fact is a directory.
* ssh: Fix rare spurios shutdowns of ssh servers when receiveing
{'EXIT',_,normal} messages.
- Changes for 20.3.3:
* sasl: When upgrading with instruction 'restart_new_emulator',
the generated temporary boot file used 'kernelProcess'
statements from the old release instead of the new release.
This is now corrected.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Apr 14 10:51:00 UTC 2018 - matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Update to 20.3.2
* ssl: Added new API functions to facilitate cipher suite handling
* erts, observer: More crash dump info such as: process binary
virtual heap stats, full info for process causing out-of-mem
during GC, more port related info, and dirty scheduler info.
* inets: Add support for unix domain sockets in the http client.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Feb 1 09:08:16 UTC 2018 - matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Update to 20.2.2.
- Changes for 20.2.2:
* mnesia: Removed a quadratic behavior in startup. This change
implies that backend plugins (if used) must be set when the
schema is created or via configuration parameters before mnesia
is started.
* mnesia: Bad timing could crash mnesia after a checkpoint was
deactivated and reactivated with the same checkpoint name on
different tables.
- Changes for 20.2.1:
* ssh: Fix problem with OpenSSH 7.2 (and later) clients that has
used sha1 instead of sha2 for rsa-sha-256/512 user's public
keys.
- Highlighted changes for 20.2:
* crypto, ssl: The crypto API is extended to use private/public
keys stored in an Engine for sign/verify or encrypt/decrypt
operations. The ssl application provides an API to use this new
engine concept in TLS.
* ssh: SSH can now fetch the host key from the private keys stored
in an Engine. See the crypto application for details about
Engines.
* ssl: A new command line option -ssl_dist_optfile has been added
to facilitate specifying the many options needed when using SSL
as the distribution protocol.
* stdlib: Improve performance of the new string functionality when
handling ASCII characters.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Nov 27 07:46:03 UTC 2017 - matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Update to 20.1.5:
* erts: Fixed a regression in zlib:gunzip/1 that prevented it
from working when the decompressed size was a perfect multiple
of 16384. This regression was introduced in 20.1.1
* erts: Fixed a memory corruption bug in enif_inspect_iovec;
writable binaries stayed writable after entering the iovec.
* erts: Fixed a crash in enif_inspect_iovec on encountering empty
binaries.
* erts: zlib:deflateParams/3 will no longer return buf_error when
called after zlib:deflate/2 with zlib 1.2.11.
* inets: Correct the handling of location headers so that the
status code is not hard coded. This should have been fixed by
commit 2cc5ba70cbbc6b3ace81a2a0324417c3b65265bb but
unfortunately was broken during a code refactoring and
unnoticed due to a faulty placed test case.
- Update to 20.1.4:
* inets: Fix broken handling of POST requests
* inets: Make sure ints:stop/2 of the service httpd is
synchronous
* inets: Honor status code returned by ESI script and modernize
"location" header handling.
- Update to 20.1.3:
* diameter: A fault introduced in diameter 2.1 could cause decode
errors to be ignored in AVPs following the header of aGrouped
AVP.
* erts: Added zlib:set_controlling_process/2 to move a zstream()
between processes.
* erts: Fix so that schedulers are bound correctly when the first
available cpu is not the first detected cpu. e.g. when using
"taskset -c X..Y" when X is not equal to 0.
* snmp: The recbuf configuration option was not propagated
correctly to the socket for the SNMP Manager.

- Replace references to /var/adm/fillup-templates with new
%_fillupdir macro (boo#1069468)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Oct 19 10:40:11 UTC 2017 - matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Update to 21.1.2:
* diameter: An inadvertently removed monitor in diameter 2.1
caused the ets table diameter_reg to leak entries, and caused
service restart and more to fail.
* erts: Fixed bug that could cause a VM crash when a corrupt
message is received on distribution channel from other node.
- Update to 20.1.1:
* compiler: The compiler could issue an incorrect internal
consistency failure diagnostic for some complicated bit syntax
maches.
* erts: The new zlib module returned a data_error when inflating
concatenated streams, which was incompatible with the old
module's behavior of returning the uncompressed data up to the
end of the first stream.
* erts: zlib:gunzip/1 will no longer stop at the end of the first
stream when decompressing concatenated gzip files.
* ssh: Fixed broken printout
* ssh: Disable aes_gcm ciphers if peer is OpenSSH 6.2 which is
known to have trouble with them in some cases.
- Update to 20.1:
* crypto, public_key: Extend crypto and public_key functions
sign and verify with: support for RSASSA-PS padding for
signatures and for saltlength setting X9.31 RSA padding. sha,
sha224, sha256, sha384, and sha512 for dss signatures as
mentioned in NIST SP 800-57 Part 1. ripemd160 to be used for
rsa signatures. A new tuple in crypto:supports/0 reports
supported MAC algorithms.
* diameter: Add service option decode_format to allow incoming
messages to be decoded into maps instead of records. Decode
performance has been improved. Add service/transport option
avp_dictionaries to give better support for dictionaries only
defining AVPs.
* erts: Upgraded the ERTS internal PCRE library from version
8.40 to version 8.41.
* erts, kernel, tools: Profiling with lock counting can now be
fully toggled at runtime in the lock counting emulator
(-emu_type lcnt). Everything is enabled by default to match
the old behavior, but specific categories can be toggled at
will with minimal runtime overhead when disabled. Refer to the
documentation on lcnt:rt_mask/1 for details.
* lcnt:collect and lcnt:clear will no longer block all other
threads in the runtime system. This makes it possible to run
the lock counting under heavier load.
* erts: The zlib module has been refactored and all its
operations will now yield appropriately, allowing them to be
used freely in concurrent applications.
* erts, tools: Add erlang:iolist_to_iovec/1, which converts an
iolist() to an erlang:iovec(), which is suitable for use with
enif_inspect_iovec().
* erts: Add new nif API functions for managing an I/O Queue. The
added functions are: enif_ioq_create(), enif_ioq_destroy(),
enif_ioq_enq_binary(), enif_ioq_enqv(), enif_ioq_deq(),
enif_ioq_peek(), enif_inspect_iovec(), enif_free_iovec()
* observer/crashdump_viewer: Reading of crash dumps with many
binaries is optimized. A progress bar is shown when the detail
view for a process is opened. The cdv script now sets
ERL_CRASH_DUMP_SECONDS=0 to avoid generating a new crash dump
from the node running the Crashdump Viewer.
* observer: Add system statistics and limits to frontpage in
observer.
* public_key, ssl**: Improved error propagation and reports
* ssh: A new option modify_algorithms is implemented. It enables
specifying changes on the default algorithms list. See the
reference manual and the SSH User's Guide chapter "Configuring
algorithms in SSH".
* tools/xref: The predefined Xref analysis locals_not_used now
understands the -on_load() attribute and does not report
unused functions.
* tools/fprof: When sampling multiple processes and analyzing
with totals set to true, the output now sums together all
caller and callee entries which concerns the same function.
Previous behaviour was to report each contributing entry
separately.

- Only Java 1.6 is supported by Erlang since 18.0 release
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Sep 14 20:05:23 UTC 2017 - matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Update to 20.0.5:
* erts: Fixed bug in binary_to_term and binary_to_atom that could
cause VM crash. Typically happens when the last character of an
UTF8 string is in the range 128 to 255, but truncated to only
one byte. Bug exists in binary_to_term since ERTS version
5.10.2 (OTP_R16B01) and binary_to_atom since ERTS version 9.0
(OTP-20.0).
* inets: http_uri aligned to follow RFC 3986 and not convert "+"
to space when decoding URIs.
* inets: Added new option max_client_body_chunk to httpd server
to allow chunked delivery of PUT and POST data to mod_esi
callback. Note, new mod_esi callback implementation is
required. Also correct value provided by server_name
environment variable.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Aug 27 14:19:49 UTC 2017 - matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Update to 20.0.4:
* dializer: Fix a bug where merging PLT:s could lose info. The
bug was introduced in Erlang/OTP 20.0.
* erts: A timer internal bit-field used for storing scheduler id
was too small. As a result, VM internal timer data structures
could become inconsistent when using 1024 schedulers on the
system. Note that systems with less than 1024 schedulers are
not effected by this bug. This bug was introduced in ERTS
version 7.0 (OTP 18.0).
* erts: Automatic cleanup of a BIF timer, when the owner process
terminated, could race with the timeout of the timer. This
could cause the VM internal data structures to become
inconsistent which very likely caused a VM crash. This bug was
introduced in ERTS version 9.0 (OTP 20.0).
- Update to 20.0.3:
* asn1: Default values now work in extension for PER, so if you
give the atom asn1_DEFAULT instead of a value it will become
the default value.
* compiler: Fail labels on guard BIFs weren't taken into account
during an optimization pass, and a bug in the validation pass
sometimes prevented this from being noticed when a fault
occurred.
* erts: Binary append operations did not check for overflow,
resulting in nonsensical results when huge binaries were
appended.
* ssh: All unknown options are sent to the transport handler
regardless of type.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Aug 20 06:28:17 UTC 2017 - matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Update to 20.0.2:
* asn: Fixed compilation error of generated code caused by a
missing quotation of function names as part of an external call for
encoding.
* erts: Added missing release notes for OTP-14491 ("performance
bug in pre-allocators") which was included in erts-9.0.1 (OTP-20.0.1).
* erts: Fixed a bug that prevented TCP sockets from being
closed properly on send timeouts.
* erts: Fixed bug in operator bxor causing erroneuos result
when one operand is a big *negative* integer with the lowest N*W bits as
zero and the other operand not larger than N*W bits. N is an integer of 1
or larger and W is 32 or 64 depending on word size.
* kernel: The documentation for the 'quiet' option in
disk_log:open/1 had an incorrect default value.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jul 31 17:02:58 UTC 2017 - matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- erlang-gs application has been depricated
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jul 17 14:24:49 UTC 2017 - matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Update to 20.0.1:
* erts: Fixed a bug in gen_tcp:send where it never returned when
repeatedly called on a remotely closed TCP socket.
* erts: Fixed segfault that could happen during cleanup of aborted
erlang:port_command/3 calls. A port_command is aborted if the
port is closed at the same time as the port_command was issued.
This bug was introduced in erts-8.0.
* erts: Fixed implementation of statistics(wall_clock) and
statistics(runtime) so that values do not unnecessarily wrap due
to the emulator. Note that the values returned by
statistics(runtime) may still wrap due to limitations in the
underlying functionality provided by the operating system.
* erts: Fix performance bug in pre-allocators that could cause
them to permanently fall back on normal more expensive memory
allocation. Pre-allocators are used for quick allocation of
short lived meta data used by messages and other scheduled
tasks. Bug exists since OTP_R15B02.
* runtime_tools: A faulty encoding comment was added when saving
trace patterns to file. This is now corrected.
* stdlib: A bug in proc_lib:format() introduced in Erlang/OTP 20.0
is corrected.
* stdlib: Fix string:len/1 to be compatible with previous
versions.
* stdlib: In OTP-20.0, the behavior of c, make, and ct_make was
changed so that in some cases the beam files by default would be
written to the directory where the source files were found. This
is now changed back to the old behavior so beam files are by
default written to current directory.
- Update to 20.0.0:
* Potential Incompatibilities
* ERTS:
* The non SMP Erlang VM is deprecated and not built by default
* Remove deprecated erlang:hash/2
* erlang:statistics/1 with scheduler_wall_time now also
includes info about dirty CPU schedulers.
* The new purge strategy introduced in OTP 19.1 is mandatory
and slightly incompatible for processes holding funs
* see erlang:check_process_code/3.
* The NIF library reload is not supported anymore.
* Atoms can now contain arbitrary unicode characters which
means that the DFLAG_UTF8_ATOMS capability in the
distribution protocol must be supported if an OTP 20 node
should accept the connection with another node or library.
Third party libraries which uses the distribution protocol
need to be updated with this.
* Asn1: Deprecated module and functions removed (asn1rt,
asn1ct:encode/3 and decode/3)
* Ssh: client only option in a call to start a daemon will now fail
* Highlights
* Erts:
* Dirty schedulers enabled and supported on VM with SMP support.
* support for “dirty” BIFs and “dirty” GC.
* erlang:garbage_collect/2 for control of minor or major GC
* Erlang literals are no longer copied when sending messages.
* Improved performance for large ETS tables, >256 entries
(except ordered_set)
* erlang:system_info/1 atom_count and atom_limit
* Reduced memory pressure by converting sub-binaries to
heap-binaries during GC
* enif_select, map an external event to message
* Improvements of timers internally in the VM resulting in
reduced memory consumption and more efficient administration
for timers
* Compiler:
* Code generation for complicated guards is improved.
* Warnings for repeated identical map keys. #{'a'=>1, 'b'=>2,
'a'=>3} will warn for the repeated key a.
* By default there is now a warning when export_all is used.
Can be disabled
* Pattern matching for maps is optimized
* New option deterministic to omit path to source + options
info the BEAM file.
* Atoms may now contain arbitrary unicode characters.
* compile:file/2 has an option to include extra chunks in the
BEAM file.
* Misc other applications:
* Significantly updated string module with unicode support and
many new functions
* crypto now supports OpenSSL 1.1
* Unnamed ets tables optimized
* gen_fsm is deprecated and replaced by gen_statem
* A new event manager to handle a subset of OS signals in
Erlang
* Optimized sets add_element, del_element and union
* Added rand:jump/0-1
* When a gen_server crashes, the stacktrace for the client
will be printed to facilitate debugging.
* take/2 has been added to dict, orddict, and gb_trees.
* take_any/2 has been added to gb_trees
* erl_tar support for long path names and new file formats
* asn1: the new maps option changes the representation of
SEQUENCE to be maps instead of records
* A TLS client will by default call
public_key:pkix_verify_hostname/2 to verify the hostname
* ssl: DTLS documented in the API, experimental
* ssh: improving security, removing and adding algorithms
* New math:fmod/2

leaked a file descriptor. This bug has now been fixed.
* erts: Invoking init:stop/0 via the SIGTERM signal, in a non-SMP
BEAM, could cause BEAM to terminate with fatal error. This has
now been fixed and the BEAM will terminate normally when SIGTERM
is received.
* inets: Fixed a bug in ftp that made further operations after a
recv_chunk operation impossible.
* ssh: ssh:daemon_info/1 crashed if the listening IP was not 'any'
* ssl: Correct active once emulation, for TLS. Now all data
received by the connection process will be delivered through
active once, even when the active once arrives after that the
gen_tcp socket is closed by the peer.

- Changes since 19.2:
* crypto, ssh: The implementation of the key exchange algorithms
diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha* are optimized, up to a factor
of 11 for the slowest ( = biggest and safest) group size.
* dialyzer: The peak memory consumption is reduced. Analyzing
modules with binary construction with huge strings is now much
faster.
* erts: A received SIGTERM signal to beam will generate a 'stop'
message to the init process and terminate the Erlang VM nicely.
This is equivalent to calling init:stop/0.
* kernel: The functions in the file module that take a list of
paths (e.g. file:path_consult/2) will now continue to search in
the path if the path contains something that is not a directory.
* kernel: Two OTP processes that are known to receive many
messages are rex (used by rpc) and error_logger. Those processes
will now store unprocessed messages outside the process heap,
which will potentially decrease the cost of garbage collections.
* public_key: New function pkix_verify_hostname/2,3 implements
certificate hostname checking. See the manual and RFC 6125.-
* public_key, ssh: The ssh host key fingerprint generation now
also takes a list of algorithms and returns a list of
corresponding fingerprints. See
public_key:ssh_hostkey_fingerprint/2 and the option
silently_accept_hosts in ssh:connect.
* ssl: Move PEM cache to a dedicated process, to avoid making the
SSL manager process a bottleneck. This improves scalability of
TLS connections.
* stdlib: filename:safe_relative_path/1 to sanitize a relative
path has been added.

* stdlib: The new behaviour gen_statem has been improved with 3
new features: the possibility to use old style non-proxy
timeouts for gen_statem:call/2,3, state entry code, and state
timeouts. These are backwards compatible. Minor code and
documentation improvements has been performed including a
borderline semantics correction of timeout zero handling.
* ssl: Experimental version of DTLS. It is runnable but not
complete and cannot be considered reliable for production usage.
To use DTLS add the option {protocol, dtls} to ssl:connect and
ssl:listen.
* ssh: Extended the option silently_accept_hosts for ssh:connect
to make it possible for the client to check the SSH host key
fingerprint string. Se the reference manual for SSH.
* ~40 contributions since the previous service release OTP 19.1

'diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256'. This raises the
security level considerably.
* kernel,stdlib,sasl: A mechanism for limiting the amount of
text that the built-in error logger events will produce has
been introduced. It is useful for limiting both the size of
log files and the CPU time used to produce them. This
mechanism is experimental in the sense that it may be changed
based on feedback. See config parameter
error_logger_format_depth in the Kernel application.

- update to 18.0.2:
* Fix processes ending up in an inconsistent half exited state
in the runtime system without SMP support
* Remove unnecessary copying of data when retrieving corrected
Erlang monotonic time.
* POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY:
Change default OS monotonic clock source chosen at build time.
This in order to improve performance. The behavior will now on
most systems be that (both OS and Erlang) monotonic time stops
when the system is suspended. (changeable via the
--enable-prefer-elapsed-monotonic-time-during-suspend
configure parameter)
* Fix erlang:system_info(end_time) returning a faulty value on
32-bit architectures.
* Fix the trace_file_drv not handling EINTR correctly which

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jun 26 11:59:59 UTC 2015 - kruber@zib.de
- update to 18.0:
* new license: APL 2.0 (Apache Public License)
* erts: The time functionality has been extended. This includes
a new API for time, as well as "time warp" modes which
alters the behavior when system time changes. You are
strongly encouraged to use the new API instead of the
old API based on erlang:now/0. erlang:now/0 has been
deprecated since it is a scalability bottleneck. See
http://www.erlang.org/doc/apps/erts/time_correction.html
* erts: Beside the API changes and time warp modes a lot of
scalability and performance improvements regarding time
management has been made. Examples are:
+ scheduler specific timer wheels,
+ scheduler specific BIF timer management,
+ parallel retrieval of monotonic time and system time
on OS:es that support it.
* erts: The previously introduced "eager check I/O" feature is
now enabled by default.
* erts/compiler: enhanced support for maps. Big maps new uses a
HAMT (Hash Array Mapped Trie) representation internally
which makes them more efficient. There is now also
support for variables as map keys.
* dialyzer: The -dialyzer() attribute can be used for suppressing
warnings in a module by specifying functions or warning
options. It can also be used for requesting warnings in
a module.
* ssl: Remove default support for SSL-3.0 and added padding check
for TLS-1.0 due to the Poodle vulnerability.
* ssl: Remove default support for RC4 cipher suites, as they are
consider too weak.
* stdlib: Allow maps for supervisor flags and child specs
* stdlib: New functions in ets:
+ take/2: Works the same as ets:delete/2 but also returns
the deleted object(s).
+ update_counter/4 with a default object as argument

+ A new memory allocation feature called "super carrier" has
been introduced. It can for example be used for pre-allocation
of all memory that the runtime system should be able to use.
It is enabled by passing the +MMscs (size in MB) command line
argument. For more information see the documentation of the
+MMsco, +MMscrfsd, +MMscrpm, +MMscs, +MMusac, and, +Mlpm
command line arguments in the erts_alloc(3) documentation.
+ The ldap client eldap now supports the start_tls operation.
This upgrades an existing tcp connection to encryption using
tls, see eldap:start_tls/2 and /3.

+ Support for UTF-8 encoded Unicode characters in source files.
+ Inets application: The http client now support HTTPS through a
proxy
+ Asn1 application: Major cleanup of back ends and optimizations
of mainly decode for PER and UPER.
+ The experimental features parameterized modules and packages
are removed. An alternative compatible solution for
parameterized modules is provided here
https://github.com/erlang/pmod_transform.
+ All built in functions BIF's (even if they are implemented in
C as part of the VM) are now visible in the source code of the
module they belong to, including their type specs.
+ The Wx application now compiles and is usable with the
unstable development branch of wxWidgets-2.9.
This means that wx can now be built on 64 bit MacOsX as well.

Thu Sep 6 09:00:14 UTC 2012 - kruber@zib.de
- update to R15B02 release:
+ Highlights:
* Dialyzer: The type analysis tool Dialyzer is optimized to be
generally faster. - It can now also run in parallel (default)
on SMP systems and by this perform the analysis significantly
faster (Thanks to Stavros Aronis and Kostis Sagonas)
* The SSL application now has experimental support for the
TLS 1.1 and 1.2 standards as well (Thanks to Andreas Schultz).
* CommonTest: It is now possible to sort the generated html
tables. A Netconf client (ct_netconf) which support basic
netconf over ssh is added
* Diameter: Statistics counters related to Diameter messages can
now be retrieved by calling the diameter:service_info/2 function.
* Various smaller optimizations in the Erlang VM
* This release also contains 66 contributions from users outside
the Ericsson team

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Apr 16 16:15:13 UTC 2012 - kruber@zib.de
- updated to R15B01 release:
+ Highlights from R15B01:
* Added erlang:statistics(scheduler_wall_time) to ensure correct
determination of scheduler utilization. Measuring scheduler
utilization is strongly preferred over CPU utilization, since
CPU utilization gives very poor indications of actual
scheduler/vm usage.
* Changed ssh implementation to use the public_key application
for all public key handling. This is also a first step for
enabling a callback API for supplying public keys and handling
keys protected with password phrases. Additionally the test
suites where improved so that they do not copy the users keys
to test server directories as this is a security liability.
Also ipv6 and file access issues found in the process has been
fixed.
* When an escript ends now all printout to standard output and
standard error gets out on the terminal. This bug has been
corrected by changing the behaviour of erlang:halt/0,1, which
should fix the same problem for other escript-like applications,
i.e. that data stored in the output port driver buffers got
lost when printing on a TTY and exiting through erlang:halt/0,1.
The BIF:s erlang:halt/0,1 has gotten improved semantics and
there is a new BIF erlang:halt/2 to accomplish something like
the old semantics. See the documentation.
* The DTrace source patch from Scott Lystig Fritchie is
integrated in the source tree. Using an emulator with dtrace
probe is still not supported for production use, but may be a
valuable debugging tool. Configure with
--with-dynamic-trace=dtrace (or --with-dynamic-trace=systemtap)
to create a build with dtrace probes enabled. See runtime_tools
for documentation and examples
* Added Torbjörn Törnkvists LDAP client as a new application
called eldap.
* Added options for the ssh client to support user keys files
that are password protected.
