OTP-17734 Application(s): kernel
Related Id(s): GH-5327, OTP-17659
The internal, undocumented, but used, module inet_dns
has been fixed to handle mDNS high bit usage of the
Class field.
Code that uses the previously obsolete, undocumented
and unused record field #dns_rr.func will need to be
updated since that field is now used as a boolean flag
for the mDNS high Class bit. Code that uses the also
undocumented record #dns_query will need to be
recompiled since a boolean field
#dns_query.unicast_response has been added for the mDNS
high Class bit.

The runtime system could call select() with a too large

OTP-17736 Application(s): erts, kernel
Related Id(s): GH-5279, OTP-17559, PR-5120
The fix for Linux's behaviour when reconnecting an UDP
socket in PR-5120 released in OTP-24.1.2 has been
refined to only dissolve the socket's connection before
a connect if the socket is already connected, that is:
only for a reconnect.
This allows code to open a socket with an ephemeral
port, get the port number and connect; without the port
number changing (on Linux). This turned out to have at
least one valid use case (besides test cases).
Should one reconnect the socket then the port number
may change, on Linux; it is a known quirk, which can be
worked around by binding to a specific port number when
opening the socket. If you can do without an ephemeral
port, that is...

Certain distributed signals that for various reasons
must to be forced into the distribution buffer even
when it is full would instead be lost if the
distribution buffer was full when sent. The effected
signals:
-- EXIT signals with exit reasons of one word size.
-- DOWN signals with exit reasons of one word size.
-- demonitor signals from a terminating process.
-- unlink_ack signals on OTP 23 and 24.
-- spawn_reply signals on OTP 23 and 24.

OTP-17675 Application(s): erts
Reduction counter was not updated before and after
doing apply operations on the runtime system with the
jit enabled. This caused reduction counting to get out
of sync if a garbage collection was made as part of the
apply operation.
OTP-17677 Application(s): erts
This fixes a bug in erts_factory_undo that caused the
heap to not be reset correctly. The erts_factory_undo
function is, for example, called when a
binary_to_term/1 call fails to reset the heap to its
state before the binary_to_term/1 call. This can cause
the heap to contain invalid terms which potentially can
cause issues (e.g., crashes) when the whole heap is
scanned.
OTP-17686 Application(s): erts
When attempting to construct a binary with an segment
having an illegal type for the size (e.g. an atom),
there could be an unnecessary memory allocation (and
subsequent deallocation) before the operation failed.
Amended to fail before allocating any memory for the
binary.
OTP-17700 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): GH-5271, PR-5273
Fix bug in persistent_term when a key-value pair
contains a magic reference that is referred more than
once. Magic references are NIF resources or returned
from BIFs like ets:new, atomics:new. The bug could
cause the memory of the referred resource to be
prematurely deallocated.
The bug also apply to magic references in message
passing on a runtime built with configure option
--enable-sharing-preserving.
Bug exist for 64-bit since OTP-24.0 and for 32-bit
since OTP-20.0.
OTP-17712 Application(s): erts
Fixed a crash when inspecting the stack trace of an
exception raised at a very high line number.
This bug was introduced in OTP 24.
OTP-17722 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): GH-5310, PR-5313
The following two bugs that caused erlang:demonitor()
to behave erroneously have been fixed. The bugs were
only triggered if the monitor that was removed by
demonitor() had previously been created simultaneously
as a monitor and as an alias.
-- A demonitor operation on a monitor created using the
{alias, reply_demonitor} option erroneously behaved as
if the {alias, explicit_unalias} option had been used.
-- A demonitor operation did not prevent a
corresponding 'DOWN' message from being delivered if
the monitor reference was kept as an active alias after
the operation. This could only occur if the monitored
process simultaneously terminated before the demonitor
signal reached it, and the exit reason was not an
immediate term. That is, a term larger than one machine
word.

A race between an exiting port and handling of

The python scripts that existed in
erts/lib_src/yielding_c_fun/lib/tiny_regex_c/scripts
had a license that was incompatible with Erlang/OTP's
license. This ticket removes these scripts that were
not used by us.

The undocumented DNS encode/decode module inet_dns has
been cleaned up to handle the difference between
"symbolic" and "raw" records in a more consistent
manner.
PR-5145/OTP-17584 introduced a change that contributed
to an already existing confusion, which this correction
should remedy.

On a full OTP 24 installation, also the following runtime

OTP-17642 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): PR-5248
A race between an exiting port and handling of
simultaneously received signals to that port could
cause a runtime system crash. The effected signals are
link, monitor and demonitor. On OTP 22 a similiar race
could also cause a memory leak when receiving an unlink
signal.

A user defined tag on a monitor message could cause the
runtime system to crash when the monitor message had
been received.
OTP-17647 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): GH-5225, PR-5230
A call to erlang:demonitor(Ref) where the reference Ref
referred to an active alias, but not an active monitor,
caused the runtime system to crash.
OTP-17651 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): GH-5235, PR-5244
The message queue of a process entered an inconsistent
state after a receive expression with an invalid
timeout value was executed. If the exception raised due
to the invalid timeout value was caught, the following
receive expression executed by the process could fail
to match messages already present in the message queue.
On OTP 24 this could also cause the whole runtime
system to crash.
OTP-17665 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): PR-5248
Sending a Port ! {PortOwner, close} signal from a
process other than the port owner could erroneously
trigger a badsig exit signal being sent to the port
owner process even though the correct PortOwner had
been passed in the signal.

Fixed a bug that could cause a child to become orphaned
when a supervisor died between unlinking and sending
the shutdown signal to this child.
There was also a possibility for erratic supervisor
reports caused by a race between a supervisor shutting
down a child and that child exiting by itself at the
same time.

OTP 24.1
OTP 24.1
Erlang/OTP 24.1 is the first maintenance patch release for OTP 24, with mostly
bug fixes as well as a few improvements.
Below are some highlights of the release:
Highlights
-
OTP: The Efficiency Guide has been extended with a chapter about maps.
-
Stdlib: Most output functions in the
iomodule now print extra
error information when provided with invalid arguments.
The functions are:io:format,io:fwrite,io:put_chars,
io:nlandio:write. -
Erts:
init:stop()no longer unloads loaded code before
terminating the runtime system. On systems with slow
CPUs (such as Raspberry PI Zero), that can
significantly speed up termination of the runtime system.
