The most notable:</p> <taglist> <tag>Order of + signal delivery.</tag> <item>The previous implementation + of the VM has delivered signals from processes to ports + in a synchronous stricter fashion than required by the + language. As of ERTS version 5.10, signals are truly + asynchronously delivered. The order of signal delivery + still adheres to the requirements of the language, but + only to the requirements. That is, some signal sequences + that previously always were delivered in one specific + order may now from time to time be delivered in different + orders. This may cause Erlang programs that have made + <em>false assumptions</em> about signal delivery order to + fail even though they previously succeeded. For more + information about signal ordering guarantees, see the + chapter on <seealso + marker="erts:communication">communication</seealso> in + the ERTS user's guide. The <seealso + marker="erts:erl#+n">+n</seealso> command line flag of + <seealso marker="erts:erl">erl(1)</seealso> can be + helpful when trying to find signaling order bugs in + Erlang code that have been exposed by these + changes.</item> <tag>Latency of signals sent from + processes to ports.</tag> <item>Signals from processes to + ports where previously always delivered immediately. This + kept latency for such communication to a minimum, but it + could cause lock contention which was very expensive for + the system as a whole. In order to keep this latency low + also in the future, most signals from processes to ports + are by default still delivered immediately as long as no + conflicts occur. Such conflicts include not being able to + acquire the port lock, but also include other conflicts. + When a conflict occur, the signal will be scheduled for + delivery at a later time. A scheduled signal delivery may + cause a higher latency for this specific communication, + but improves the overall performance of the system since + it reduce lock contention between schedulers. The default + behavior of only scheduling delivery of these signals on + conflict can be changed by passing the <seealso + marker="erts:erl#+spp">+spp</seealso> command line flag + to <seealso marker="erts:erl">erl(1)</seealso>. The + behavior can also be changed on port basis using the + <seealso + marker="erts:erlang#open_port_parallelism">parallelism</seealso> + option of the <seealso + marker="erts:erlang#open_port-2">open_port/2</seealso> + BIF.</item> <tag>Execution time of the + <c>erlang:ports/0</c> BIF.</tag> <item>Since <seealso + marker="erts:erlang#ports-0">erlang:ports/0</seealso> now + can be preempted, the responsiveness of the system as a + whole has been improved. A call to <c>erlang:ports/0</c> + may, however, take a much longer time to complete than + before.
