Truncate buffers used to hold command line arguments.
|
|
Check buffer operations on input from escripts, the command line and
environment variables.
|
|
Check buffer operations and increase the size of the buffer used for
holding command line arguments, since the "-D" switch will be expanded
into 3 arguments when passed to erl.
|
|
Check length of buffers used with environment variables and debug
messages.
|
|
When building with "--as-needed" linker flags on Linux the build will
fail. This has now been fixed.
|
|
Common Test may now be started with the program run_test instead of the legacy shell script with the same name.
Minor updates have also been made to the Webtool application.

|
When the undocumented ERL_INET_GETHOST_DEBUG environment variable
is set to 5, very long hostnames can overflow the buffer used to
construct the debug message. Truncate debug messages if they exceed
the size of the buffer.
export ERL_INET_GETHOST_DEBUG=5
inet:gethostbyname(lists:duplicate(5000,"x")).

improvements.
Most notable:
Lots of cross compilation improvements. The old cross compilation
support was more or less non-existing as well as broken. Please,
note that the cross compilation support should still be
considered as experimental. Also note that old cross compilation
configurations cannot be used without modifications. For more
information on cross compiling Erlang/OTP see the
$ERL_TOP/xcomp/README file.
Support for staged install using <url
href="http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/DESTDIR.html">D
ESTDIR</url>. The old broken INSTALL_PREFIX has also been fixed.
For more information see the $ERL_TOP/README file.
Documentation of the release target of the top Makefile. For more
information see the $ERL_TOP/README file.
make install now by default creates relative symbolic links
instead of absolute ones. For more information see the
$ERL_TOP/README file.
$ERL_TOP/configure --help=recursive now works and prints help for
all applications with configure scripts.
Doing make install, or make release directly after make all no
longer triggers miscellaneous rebuilds.
Existing bootstrap system is now used when doing make install, or
make release without a preceding make all.
The crypto and ssl applications use the same runtime library path
when dynamically linking against libssl.so and libcrypto.so. The
runtime library search path has also been extended.
The configure scripts of erl_interface and odbc now search for
thread libraries and thread library quirks the same way as erts
do.
The configure script of the odbc application now also looks for
odbc libraries in lib64 and lib/64 directories when building on a
64-bit system.
The config.h.in file in the erl_interface application is now
automatically generated in instead of statically updated which
reduces the risk of configure tests without any effect.
