Trouble Report Id:       OTP-16607, OTP-16930, OTP-17291, OTP-17307,
                         OTP-17349, OTP-17358
Seq num:                 ERL-1371, ERL-ERL-610, GH-4396
System:                  OTP
Release:                 22
Application:             erl_interface-3.13.2.1, erts-10.7.2.10,
                         runtime_tools-1.14.0.1
Predecessor:             OTP 22.3.4.17

 Check out the git tag OTP-22.3.4.18, and build a full OTP system
 including documentation. Apply one or more applications from this
 build as patches to your installation using the 'otp_patch_apply'
 tool. For information on install requirements, see descriptions for
 each application version below.

 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
 --- erl_interface-3.13.2.1 ------------------------------------------
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------

 The erl_interface-3.13.2.1 application can be applied independently
 of other applications on a full OTP 22 installation.

 --- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---

  OTP-17358    Application(s): erl_interface
               Related Id(s): ERL-ERL-610

               Fix bug where sending of large data with
               ei_send_*/ei_rpc with infinite timeout could fail when
               the tcp buffer becomes full.

               Fault has existed since OTP-21.


 --- Known Bugs and Problems ---

  OTP-16607    Application(s): erl_interface
               Related Id(s): OTP-16608

               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.


 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
 --- erts-10.7.2.10 --------------------------------------------------
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------

 Note! The erts-10.7.2.10 application *cannot* be applied
       independently of other applications on an arbitrary OTP 22
       installation.

       On a full OTP 22 installation, also the following runtime
       dependency has to be satisfied:
       -- kernel-6.5.1 (first satisfied in OTP 22.2)


 --- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---

  OTP-17291    Application(s): erts

               The following signals could pass before other signals
               from the same sender to the same receiver. That is,
               these signals could arrive too early.

               -- garbage-collect request. Sent from one process to
               another using one of the garbage_collect() BIFs.

               -- check-process-code request. Sent from one process to
               another using one of the check_process_code() BIFs.

               -- is-process-alive reply. Sent as a response to a
               process calling the is_process_alive() BIF.

               -- process-info reply. Sent as a response to a process
               calling one of the process_info() BIFs.

               -- port-command reply. Sent as a response to a process
               calling one of the port_command() BIFs.

               -- port-connect reply. Sent as a response to a process
               calling the port_connect() BIF.

               -- port-close reply. Sent as a response to a process
               calling the port_close() BIF.

               -- port-control reply. Sent as a response to a process
               calling the port_control() BIF.

               -- port-call reply. Sent as a response to a process
               calling the port_call() BIF.

               -- port-info reply. Sent as a response to a process
               calling one of the port_info() BIFs.


  OTP-17307    Application(s): erts

               A garbage collection of a literal area missed messages
               that entirely consisted of a term in a literal area.
               This could in turn lead to a crash of the runtime
               system.


  OTP-17349    Application(s): erts

               A call to process_flag(message_queue_data, off_heap)
               could cause a crash of the runtime system when
               sequential tracing was enabled.

 stdlib-3.5


 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
 --- runtime_tools-1.14.0.1 ------------------------------------------
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------

 The runtime_tools-1.14.0.1 application can be applied independently
 of other applications on a full OTP 22 installation.

 --- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---

  OTP-16930    Application(s): runtime_tools
               Related Id(s): ERL-1371, GH-4396

               The function dbg:n/1 used a local fun to set up a
               tracer on a remote node. This works fine as long as the
               remote node is running exactly the same version of
               Erlang/OTP but does not work at all otherwise. This is
               fixed by exporting the relevant function and by calling
               this function on the remote node to set up remote
               tracing.


 Full runtime dependencies of runtime_tools-1.14.0.1: erts-8.0,
 kernel-5.0, mnesia-4.12, stdlib-3.0
