This exit signal would most often be ignored + by the receiver, but if the receiver of the exit signal + concurrently set up a new link, it could receive the + exit signal with the actual exit reason of the + terminating process instead of a noproc exit reason. It + is however very hard to detect that this has happened + and has no obvious negative consequences, so it should + be considered harmless. + + A distributed unlink-ack signal received by a + terminating process was also not properly removed which + could cause a minor memory leak. + + + OTP-18197 Application(s): erts + Related Id(s): GH-6165, PR-6213 + + The erlang:monotonic_time/1, erlang:system_time/1, + erlang:time_offset/1, and os:system_time/1 BIFs + erroneously failed when passed the argument native. + + + OTP-18222 Application(s): erts + Related Id(s): GH-6242, PR-6248 + + Fix writing and reading of more than 2 GB in a single + read/write operation on macOS.
