This occurred when the calling process was + executing on a higher priority than the process being + inspected. This bug has been present since OTP 21.0 + (erts version 10.0). + + + OTP-17642 Application(s): erts + Related Id(s): PR-5248 + + A race between an exiting port and handling of + simultaneously received signals to that port could + cause a runtime system crash. The effected signals are + link, monitor and demonitor. On OTP 22 a similiar race + could also cause a memory leak when receiving an unlink + signal. + + + OTP-17651 Application(s): erts + Related Id(s): GH-5235, PR-5244 + + The message queue of a process entered an inconsistent + state after a receive expression with an invalid + timeout value was executed. If the exception raised due + to the invalid timeout value was caught, the following + receive expression executed by the process could fail + to match messages already present in the message queue. + + On OTP 24 this could also cause the whole runtime + system to crash. + + + OTP-17665 Application(s): erts + Related Id(s): PR-5248 + + Sending a Port ! {PortOwner, close} signal from a + process other than the port owner could erroneously + trigger a badsig exit signal being sent to the port + owner process even though the correct PortOwner had + been passed in the signal. + + + OTP-17677 Application(s): erts + + This fixes a bug in erts_factory_undo that caused the + heap to not be reset correctly. The erts_factory_undo + function is, for example, called when a + binary_to_term/1 call fails to reset the heap to its + state before the binary_to_term/1 call. This can cause + the heap to contain invalid terms which potentially can + cause issues (e.g., crashes) when the whole heap is + scanned. + + + OTP-17700 Application(s): erts + Related Id(s): GH-5271, PR-5273 + + Fix bug in persistent_term when a key-value pair + contains a magic reference that is referred more than + once. Magic references are NIF resources or returned + from BIFs like ets:new, atomics:new. The bug could + cause the memory of the referred resource to be + prematurely deallocated. + + The bug also apply to magic references in message + passing on a runtime built with configure option + --enable-sharing-preserving. + + Bug exist for 64-bit since OTP-24.0 and for 32-bit + since OTP-20.0. + + + --- Improvements and New Features --- + + OTP-17658 Application(s): erts + + The python scripts that existed in + erts/lib_src/yielding_c_fun/lib/tiny_regex_c/scripts + had a license that was incompatible with Erlang/OTP's + license.
