Version: 18.3.4.11-13.1
* Sun Dec 09 2018 matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Update to 20.3.8.15 (boo#1118869)
- Changes for 20.3.8.15:
* asn1: Handle erroneous length during decode (BER only) without
crashing.
- Changes for 20.3.8.14:
* ssh: Incompatibility with newer OpenSSH fixed. Previously
versions 7.8 and later could cause Erlang SSH to exit.
- Changes for 20.3.8.13:
* ssl: Add engine support for RSA key exchange
- Changes for 20.3.8.12:
* erts: List subtraction (The -- operator) will now yield properly
on large inputs.
* stdlib: List subtraction (The -- operator) will now yield
properly on large inputs.
* ssl: Extend check for undelivered data at closing, could under
some circumstances fail to deliverd all data that was acctualy
recivied.
- Changes for 20.3.8.11:
* erts: ERTS internal trees of monitor structures could get into
an inconsistent state. This could cause 'DOWN' messages not to
be delivered when they should, as well as delivery of 'DOWN'
messages that should not be delivered.
- Changes for 20.3.8.10:
* erts: Fixed bug in ets:select_replace when called with a fully
bound key could cause a following call to ets:next or ets:prev
to crash the emulator or return invalid result.
* eldap: A race condition at close could cause the eldap client to
exit with a badarg message as cause.
* Tue Aug 14 2018 matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Update to 20.3.8.5.
- Changes for 20.3.8.5:
* erts: Fixed a bug causing some Erlang references to be
inconsistently ordered. This could for example cause failure
to look up certain elements with references as keys in search
data structures. This bug was introduced in R13B02. Thanks to
Simon Cornish for finding the bug and supplying a fix.
* compiler: Fixed an issue where files compiled with the
+deterministic option differed if they were compiled in a
different directory but were otherwise identical.
* crypto: Fixed a node crash in crypto:compute_key(ecdh, ...)
when passing a wrongly typed Others argument.
* erts: Fixed a bug which caused an emulator crash when
enif_send() was called by a NIF that executed on a dirty
scheduler. The bug was either triggered when the NIF called
enif_send() without a message environment, or when the process
executing the NIF was send traced.
* erts: Fixed a bug causing some Erlang references to be
inconsistently ordered. This could for example cause failure
to look up certain elements with references as keys in search
data structures. This bug was introduced in R13B02. Thanks to
Simon Cornish for finding the bug and supplying a fix.
* mnesia: When master node is set do not force a load from
ram_copies replica when there are no available disc_copies,
since that would load an empty table. Wait until a disk
replica is available or until user explicitly force_loads the
table.
* mnesia: Allow to add replicas even if all other replicas are
down when the other replicase are not stored on disk.
* ssl: Correct handling of empty server SNI extension
* ssl: Correct cipher suite handling for ECDHE_*, the incorrect
handling could cause an incorrrect suite to be selected and
most likly fail the handshake.
- Changes for 20.3.8.4:
* asn1: A bug in ASN.1 BER decoding has been fixed. When
decoding a recursively enclosed term the length was not
propagated to that term decoding, so if the length of the
enclosed term was longer than the enclosing that error was not
dectected. A hard coded C stack limitation for decoding
recursive ASN.1 terms has been introduced. This is currently
set to 8 kWords giving a nesting depth of about 1000 levels.
Deeper terms can not be decoded, which should not be much of a
real world limitation.
- Changes for 20.3.8.3:
* erts: Fixed a race condition in the inet driver that could
cause receive to hang when the emulator was compiled with gcc8.
* erts: Fix bug in generation of erl_crash.dump, which could
cause VM to crash. Bug exist since erts-9.2 (OTP-20.2).
* ic: Fixed potential buffer overflow bugs in
oe_ei_encode_long/ulong/longlong/ulonglong functions on 64-bit
architectures. These functions expect 32 bit integers as the
IDL type "long" is defined as 32 bits. But there is nothing
preventing user code from "breaking" the interface and pass
larger values on 64-bit architectures where the C type "long"
is 64 bits.
* inets: Enhance error handling, that is mod_get will return 403
if a path is a directory and not a file.
* kernel: Non semantic change in dist_util.erl to silence
dialyzer warning.
* ssl: Improve cipher suite handling correcting ECC and TLS-1.2
requierments. Backport of solution for ERL-641
* ssl: Option keyfile defaults to certfile and should be trumped
with key. This failed for engine keys.
- Changes for 20.3.8.2:
* erl_interface: Make ei_connect and friends also accept state
ok_simultaneous during handshake, which means the other node
has initiated a connection setup that will be cancelled in
favor of this connection.
* erts: Fixed a rare bug that could cause processes to be
scheduled after they had been freed.
* ic: Fixed bug in ic causing potential buffer overrun in
funtion oe_ei_encode_atom. Bug exists since ic-4.4.4
(OTP-20.3.4).
* kernel: Fix some potential buggy behavior in how ticks are
sent on inter node distribution connections. Tick is now sent
to c-node even if there are unsent buffered data, as c-nodes
need ticks in order to send reply ticks. The amount of sent
data was also calculated wrongly when ticks were suppressed
due to unsent buffered data.
- Changes for 20.3.8.1:
* inets: Options added for setting low-level properties on the
underlying TCP connections. The options are: sock_ctrl,
sock_data_act and sock_data_pass. See the manual for details.
* ssh: SFTP clients reported the error reason "" if a non-OTP
sftp server was killed during a long file transmission. Now
the signal name (for example "KILL") will be the error reason
if the server's reason is empty. The documentation also lacked
type information about this class of errors.
* ssh: Fix ssh_sftp decode error for sftp protocol version 4
* syntax_tools: Fix a bug regarding reverting map types.
- Changes for 20.3.8:
* erts: Fixed bug in ets that could cause VM crash if process A
terminates after fixating a table and process B deletes the
table at "the same time". The table fixation could be done
with ets:safe_fixtable or if process A terminates in the
middle of a long running select or match call.
* snmp: The Snmp MIB compiler now allows using a
TEXTUAL-CONVENTION type before defining it.
- Changes for 20.3.7:
* erl_docgen: Update makefile so db_funcs.xsl is a part of the
installed application.
* erts: Fixed bug in enif_binary_to_term which could cause
memory corruption for immediate terms (atoms, small integers,
pids, ports, empty lists).
* erts: Fixed bug in erlang:system_profile/2 that could cause
superfluous {profile,_,active,_,_} messages for terminating
processes.
* inets: The option max_headers operated on the individual
header length instead of the total length of all headers. Also
headers with empty keys are now discarded.
- Changes for 20.3.6:
* crypto: If OPENSSL_NO_EC was set, the compilation of the
crypto nifs failed.
* crypto: C-compile errors for LibreSSL 2.7.0 - 2.7.2 fixed
* ssh: Host key hash erroneously calculated for clients
following draft-00 of RFC 4419, for example PuTTY
* ssh: Renegotiation could fail in some states
- Changes for 20.3.5:
* erts: Fixed a crash in heart:get_cmd/0 when the stored command
was too long.
* ssl: Proper handling of clients that choose to send an empty
answer to a certificate request.
- Changes for 20.3.4:
* erl_interface: Fix bug in ei_connect functions that may cause
failure due to insufficient buffer space for gethostbyname_r.
* erl_interface, ic: Optimize encoding/decoding for pure 7-bit
ascii atoms.
* inets: Fix broken options handling in httpc (ERL-441).
* ssh: An ssh_sftp server (running version 6) could fail if it
is told to remove a file which in fact is a directory.
* ssh: Fix rare spurios shutdowns of ssh servers when receiveing
{'EXIT',_,normal} messages.
- Changes for 20.3.3:
* sasl: When upgrading with instruction 'restart_new_emulator',
the generated temporary boot file used 'kernelProcess'
statements from the old release instead of the new release.
This is now corrected.
* Sat Apr 14 2018 matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Update to 20.3.2
* ssl: Added new API functions to facilitate cipher suite handling
* erts, observer: More crash dump info such as: process binary
virtual heap stats, full info for process causing out-of-mem
during GC, more port related info, and dirty scheduler info.
* inets: Add support for unix domain sockets in the http client.
Version: 18.2.2-3.1
* Tue Jan 12 2016 matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Update to 18.2.2:
* ssh: The authentication method 'keyboard-interactive' failed
in the Erlang client when the server after successful
authentication continued by asking for zero more
passwords.
* Mon Dec 28 2015 matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Update to 18.2.1:
* Due to a bug in the handling of paths on windows
none of the following would work with paths
containing a space: ct_run dialyzer erlc escript typer
This also contains a fix for HiPE enabled emulator for
FreeBSD.
- Update to 18.2:
* ssl: Add configurable upper limit for session
cache. erts: Add function enif_getenv to read OS
environment variables in a portable way from NIFs.
* kernel: Add {line_delim, byte()} option to
inet:setopts/2 and decode_packet/3
* ssh: The 'ecdsa-sha2-nistp256',
'ecdsa-sha2-nistp384' and 'ecdsa-sha2-nistp521'
signature algorithms for ssh are implemented. See RFC5656.
* ssh: The ssh:daemon option dh_gex_groups is
extended to read a user provided ssh moduli file
with generator-modulus pairs. The file is in openssh
format.
* Thu Dec 17 2015 ro@suse.de
- disable hipe on s390/s390x to fix build
* Thu Oct 29 2015 matwey.kornilov@gmail.com
- Update to 18.1.3:
* ssl: Add possibility to downgrade an SSL/TLS connection to a
tcp connection, and give back the socket control to a user
process.
* ssh: The following new key exchange algorithms are
implemented:'ecdh-sha2-nistp256', 'ecdh-sha2-nistp384',
'ecdh-sha2-nistp521','diffie-hellman-group14-sha1',
'diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1' and
'diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256'. This raises the
security level considerably.
* kernel,stdlib,sasl: A mechanism for limiting the amount of
text that the built-in error logger events will produce has
been introduced. It is useful for limiting both the size of
log files and the CPU time used to produce them. This
mechanism is experimental in the sense that it may be changed
based on feedback. See config parameter
error_logger_format_depth in the Kernel application.
- Removed erts_fix_unlock_status_lock.patch: fixed in upstream

- update to 18.0.2:
* Fix processes ending up in an inconsistent half exited state
in the runtime system without SMP support
* Remove unnecessary copying of data when retrieving corrected
Erlang monotonic time.
* POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY:
Change default OS monotonic clock source chosen at build time.
This in order to improve performance. The behavior will now on
most systems be that (both OS and Erlang) monotonic time stops
when the system is suspended. (changeable via the
- -enable-prefer-elapsed-monotonic-time-during-suspend
configure parameter)
* Fix erlang:system_info(end_time) returning a faulty value on
32-bit architectures.
* Fix the trace_file_drv not handling EINTR correctly which
caused it to fail when the runtime system received a signal.
* Tue Jun 30 2015 kruber@zib.de
- update to 18.0.1:
* Fix a rare hanging of the VM seen to happen just after
emulator start. Bug exists since R14.
* Fri Jun 26 2015 kruber@zib.de
- update to 18.0:
* new license: APL 2.0 (Apache Public License)
* erts: The time functionality has been extended. This includes
a new API for time, as well as "time warp" modes which
alters the behavior when system time changes. You are
strongly encouraged to use the new API instead of the
old API based on erlang:now/0. erlang:now/0 has been
deprecated since it is a scalability bottleneck. See
http://www.erlang.org/doc/apps/erts/time_correction.html
* erts: Beside the API changes and time warp modes a lot of
scalability and performance improvements regarding time
management has been made. Examples are:
+ scheduler specific timer wheels,
+ scheduler specific BIF timer management,
+ parallel retrieval of monotonic time and system time
on OS:es that support it.
* erts: The previously introduced "eager check I/O" feature is
now enabled by default.
* erts/compiler: enhanced support for maps. Big maps new uses a
HAMT (Hash Array Mapped Trie) representation internally
which makes them more efficient. There is now also
support for variables as map keys.
* dialyzer: The -dialyzer() attribute can be used for suppressing
warnings in a module by specifying functions or warning
options. It can also be used for requesting warnings in
a module.
* ssl: Remove default support for SSL-3.0 and added padding check
for TLS-1.0 due to the Poodle vulnerability.
* ssl: Remove default support for RC4 cipher suites, as they are
consider too weak.
* stdlib: Allow maps for supervisor flags and child specs
* stdlib: New functions in ets:
+ take/2: Works the same as ets:delete/2 but also returns
the deleted object(s).
+ update_counter/4 with a default object as argument
