               A process with message_queue_data configured as
               off_heap could end up in an inconsistent state when
               being receive traced, inspected using process_info/2
               with the message_queue_len item, or inspected using the
               break menu (CTRL-C). When it ended up in this
               inconsistent state, it was not enqueued into a run
               queue even though it was set in a runnable state.This
               also effected signals being sent to the process after
               it had gotten into this inconsistent state, in such a
               way that it was from this point not possible to
               communicate with it.


  OTP-18839    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): GH-7801, PR-7822

               A race occurring when a process was selected for dirty
               execution simultaneously as it was scheduled for
               handling a signal could cause the process to end up in
               an inconsistent state. When it ended up in this
               inconsistent state, it was not enqueued into a run
               queue even though it was set in a runnable state. This
               also effected signals being sent to the process after
               it had gotten into this inconsistent state, in such a

  OTP-18841    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): GH-7801, OTP-18737, PR-7822

               When a process had to to wait in the run queue for a
               long time before being selected for dirty execution, it
               could not receive signals. This caused inspection of
               such a process, for example using process_info/2, to
               take a long time.

               This issue was introduced in OTP 25.3.2.6 and 26.1 when
               fixing an issue where a constant flow of signals
               prevented a process from being able to execute dirty.

  OTP-18885    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): GH-7834, GH-7890, PR-7915

               On OTP 24 and OTP 25, incoming distributed messages
               larger than 64 KiB sent using an alias leaked memory if
               the alias had been removed prior to entering the node.
               This issue was not present on OTP 26.

               Incoming distributed messages larger than 64 KiB sent
               using an alias which had been removed on the receiving
               node could crash the node. This crash was quite
               unlikely on OTP 24 and OTP 25, but very likely on OTP
               26.

               'DOWN' signals with exit reason larger than 64 KiB
               directed towards a process on a node with a not
               matching creation leaked memory on the receiving node.
               Such signals should however be very rare.

               Fix bug where reading using file from a unicode enabled
               standard_io, standard_error or any other group backed
               device would result in incorrect values being returned
               or a crash.

               Now instead a no_translation error is returned to the
               caller when unicode data is read using file. See Using

               rewrite of its ETS table handling to minimize term
               copying, and also to move the handling of client
