This document describes the changes made to the ERTS application.

Erts 8.1.1 + +
Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions + + +

+ The emulator got a dynamic library dependency towards + libsctp, which on Linux was not intended since the + emulator there loads and resolves the needed sctp + functions in runtime. This has been fixed and a configure + switch --enable-sctp=lib has been added for those who + want such a library dependency.

+ +

The new functions in code that allows loading + of many modules at once had a performance problem. While + executing a helper function in the erl_prim_loader + process, garbage messages were produced. The garbages + messages were ignored and ultimately discarded, but there + would be a negative impact on performance and memory + usage. The number of garbage message depended on both the + number of modules to be loaded and the length of the code + path.

+

The functions affected of this problem were: + atomic_load/1, ensure_modules_loaded/1, and + prepare_loading/1.
