OTP-14677 Application(s): erts
Fix a bug in tracing where the {caller} match spec
function would be set to undefined incorrectly when
used in conjunction with return_to or return_trace on
some functions.
The functions effected are: erlang:put/2,
erlang:erase/1, erlang:process_info/1,2,
erlang:nif_load/2, erts_internal:garbage_collection/1
and erts_internal:check_process_code/1.
Because of this bug, the analysis done by fprof could
become incorrect when the functions above are the
tail-call in a function.
OTP-14678 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): ERL-495
Fix emulator deadlock that would happen if trap_exit
was set to true and a process sends an exit signal to
itself using exit(self(), Reason) while receive tracing
was enabled for that process.
OTP-14685 Application(s): erts, observer
Related Id(s): OTP-14595, OTP-14603, OTP-14611
Writing of crash dumps is significantly faster.
Maps are now included in crash dumps.
Constants terms would only be shown in one process,
while other processes referencing the same constant
term would show a marker for incomplete heap.
OTP-14691 Application(s): erts
The fallback home directory for windows has been
changed to be the PROFILE directory instead of the
WINDOWS directory. The fallback is used when the
environment variables HOMEDRIVE and HOMEPATH have not
been set.
OTP-14740 Application(s): erts, hipe
Fix bug for hipe compiled code using <<X/utf32>> binary
construction that could cause faulty result or even VM
crash.
On architectures other than x86_64, code need to be
recompiled to benefit from this fix.
OTP-14752 Application(s): erts
Fixed bug in erlang:garbage_collect/2 and
erlang:check_process_code/3, when called with option
{async,ReqestId}. Could cause VM crash or heap
corruption if RequestId was an immediate term (like a
pid, atom or small integer). Bug exists since OTP-17.0.
OTP-14779 Application(s): erts
ERL_NIF_MINOR_VERSION wasn't bumped with the addition
of enif_ioq_*.
OTP-14791 Application(s): erts
Purging of loaded code that contained "fake literals"
(for example the magic reference obtained from
'ets:new/2') would crash the runtime system. Corrected.
OTP-14796 Application(s): erts
Setting the size of the atom table to a number near
2147483647 (using the '+t' option) would cause the
emulator to exit with a failure to allocate a huge
amount of memory. This has been corrected. Also the
usage message for the '+t' option has been corrected to
show the correct upper limit 2147483647 instead of 0.
OTP-14803 Application(s): erts
Fixed a bug that prevented registered process names
from being resolved in lcnt results.
OTP-14804 Application(s): erts
Formatting bugs were fixed in several HiPE debug BIFs.
--- Improvements and New Features ---
OTP-14686 Application(s): erts, observer
Binaries and some other data in crash dumps are now
encoded in base64 (instead of in hex), which will
reduce the size of crash dumps.
A few bugs in the handling of sub binaries in
crashdump_viewer have been fixed.
OTP-14689 Application(s): erts
Micro optimization for send operations of messages to
other nodes. The local ack-message, which is otherwise
sent back from TPC/IP port driver to sending client
process, is now ignored earlier for distributed send
operations.

OTP-14642 Application(s): observer
A bug introduced in OTP-20 would make Crashdump Viewer
crash when trying to expand an empty binary. This is
now corrected.
OTP-14643 Application(s): observer
Related Id(s): ERL-489
If a match spec in the config file contained more than
one clause, observer would earlier crash when trying to
display it in the GUI. This is now corrected.
OTP-14685 Application(s): erts, observer

Writing of crash dumps is significantly faster.
Maps are now included in crash dumps.
Constants terms would only be shown in one process,
while other processes referencing the same constant
term would show a marker for incomplete heap.
--- Improvements and New Features ---
OTP-14686 Application(s): erts, observer
Binaries and some other data in crash dumps are now
encoded in base64 (instead of in hex), which will
reduce the size of crash dumps.
A few bugs in the handling of sub binaries in
crashdump_viewer have been fixed.
OTP-14755 Application(s): observer
In order to allow future improvements, Crashdump Viewer
now checks the version tag of the crashdump to see that
it is a known format. If the crashdump version is newer
than Crashdump Viewer is prepared to read, then an
information dialog is displayed before Crashdump Viewer
terminates.
If an incomplete process heap is discovered in a
crashdump, Crashdump Viewer will now display a warning
for this, similar to the warning displayed when a
crashdump is truncated. Incomplete heaps can occur if
for instance the literals are not included, which is
the case for all dumps prior to OTP-20.2.
