This document describes the changes made to the ERTS application.

Erts 5.7.5.3 + +
Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions + + +

+ On Linux systems using heart (erl -heart) and a + HEAR_BEAT_TIMEOUT less than default, heart could fire + even though Erlang was running fine after approx 298 to + 497 days (depending on kernel config). This was due to + the behaviour of the times(2) system call. Usage of + times(2) is now replaced with clock_gettime(2) and the + CLOCK_MONOTONIC clock, resulting in a more stable + solution. The Erlang VM itself has used clock_gettime(2) + on linux since before R12B, so this only affects the + heart program.
