lang/erlang: Update to 21.3.6
Highlights from erlang 21.2 to 21.3:
Kernel:
The standard logger handler, logger_std_h, now has a new internal
feature for log rotation. For full information see the documentation.
SSL:
The Reason part of the error return from the functions connect and
handshake has a better and documented format. This is a potential
incompatibility. See the documentation.
Refactoring of state handling has improved the TLS application data
throughput and reduced CPU overhead
Code optimizations has reduced CPU load for encryption/decryption,
especially for Erlang's distribution protocol over TLS
Now supports active N
Erl_interface:
Support for plugin of a user supplied socket implementation has been added.
OTP:
The HTML reference documentation now shows the OTP version where
modules and functions were first introduced. Versions of OTP older than R13B04 is not shown in the reference
documentation

lang/erlang: Update to 21.2
---------------------------------------------------------------------
--- HIGHLIGHTS ------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
OTP-13468 Application(s): erts, sasl
New counters and atomics modules supplies access to
highly efficient operations on mutable fixed word sized
variables.
OTP-14669 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): PR-1989
There is a new module persistent_term that implements a
term storage suitable for terms that are frequently
used but never or infrequently updated. Lookups are
done in constant time without copying the terms.
OTP-15094 Application(s): ssh
Related Id(s): OTP-15419
Added public key methods ssh-ed25519 and ssh-ed448.
Requires OpenSSL 1.1.1 or higher as cryptolib under the
OTP application crypto.
OTP-15449 Application(s): ssl
*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***
ssl now uses active n internally to boost performance.
Old active once behavior can be restored by setting
application variable see manual page for ssl
application (man 6).
OTP-15475 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): ERIERL-229
Add a new pollset that is made to handle sockets that
use {active, true} or {active, N}. The new pollset will
not be polled by a pollthread, but instead polled by a
normal scheduler.
This change was made because of the overhead associated
with constantly having to re-apply the ONESHOT
mechanism on fds that all input events were
interesting.
The new pollset is only active on platforms that
support concurrent kernel poll updates, i.e. Linux and
BSD.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
--- POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITIES -------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
OTP-15364 Application(s): kernel
A new function, logger:update_handler_config/3 is
added, and the handler callback changing_config now has
a new argument, SetOrUpdate, which indicates if the
configuration change comes from set_handler_config/2,3
or update_handler_config/2,3.
This allows the handler to consistently merge the new
configuration with the old (if the change comes from
update_handler_config/2,3) or with the default (if the
change comes from set_handler_config/2,3).
The built-in handlers logger_std_h and
logger_disk_log_h are updated accordingly. A bug which
could cause inconsistency between the handlers'
internal state and the stored configuration is also
corrected.
OTP-15449 Application(s): ssl
*** HIGHLIGHT ***
ssl now uses active n internally to boost performance.
Old active once behavior can be restored by setting
application variable see manual page for ssl
application (man 6).

Related Id(s): ERL-778
The compiler could fail with an internal consistency
check failure when compiling code that used the
is_function/2 BIF.
OTP-15437 Application(s): compiler, stdlib
Related Id(s): ERL-762
When an external fun was used, warnings for unused
variables could be suppressed.
OTP-15481 Application(s): compiler

that called erlang:raise/3 like this:
erlang:raise(Class, Stacktrace, Stacktrace)
--- Improvements and New Features ---
OTP-15245 Application(s): compiler, stdlib
Related Id(s): ERL-706
When specified, the +{source,Name} option will now
override the actual file name in stack traces, instead
of only affecting the return value of
Mod:module_info().
The +deterministic flag will also affect stack traces
now, omitting all path information except the file
name, fixing a long-standing issue where deterministic
builds required deterministic paths.

--- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---
OTP-12242 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): ERL-561
When a process was waiting for a TCP socket send
operation to complete, and another process closed the
socket during that send, the sending process could
hang. This bug has now been corrected.
OTP-15343 Application(s): erts, stdlib
Related Id(s): PR-1962
Document bit_size in match specifications and allow it
in ets:fun2ms.
OTP-15346 Application(s): 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.
OTP-15360 Application(s): erts
When a module has been purged from memory, any literals
belonging to that module will be copied to all
processes that hold references to them. The max heap
size limit would be ignored in the garbage collection
initiated when copying literals to a process. If the
max heap size was exceeded, the process would typically
be terminated in the following garbage collection.
Corrected to terminate the process directly if copying
a literal would exceed the max heap size.
OTP-15389 Application(s): erts
Fix compilation of run_erl on Solaris 11.4 and later.
OTP-15436 Application(s): erts
Fixed a bug where lists:reverse/1-2 could use far too
many reductions. This bug was introduced in OTP 21.1.
OTP-15446 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): PR-2024
Fixed a bug where a dirty scheduler could stay awake
forever if a distribution entry was removed as part of
a dirty GC.
OTP-15450 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): ERIERL-229
Fix microstate accounting handing in various places.
Most importantly the GC states when the GC is run on a
dirty scheduler are now managed correctly.
OTP-15461 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): ERL-784
Fixed bug in file:sendfile when the send operation
failed. For sockets in active modes it could cause
emulator crash or a hanging call. For sockets with
{active,false} an unexpected {inet_reply, _, _} message
could be sent to the calling process. The bug exists
since OTP-21.0.
OTP-15465 Application(s): erts
The erts configure script has been updated to reject
any CFLAGS that does not have -O. This in order to
prevent the common mistake of forgetting to add -O2 to
custom CFLAGS.
OTP-15474 Application(s): erts, stdlib

The logger ets table did not have the read_concurrency
option. This is now added.
OTP-15466 Application(s): kernel
Related Id(s): ERL-788
During system start, logger has a simple handler which
prints to stdout. After the kernel supervision is
started, this handler is removed and replaced by the
default handler. Due to a bug, logger earlier issued a
debug printout saying it received an unexpected
message, which was the EXIT message from the simple
handler's process. This is now corrected. The simple
handler's process now unlinks from the logger process
before terminating.
OTP-15469 Application(s): kernel
The logger handler logger_std_h would not re-create
it's log file if it was removed. Due to this it could
not be used with tools like 'logrotate'. This is now

Conversion of (agent) Audit Trail Log (ATL) failed due

The conversion aborted completely midway because the
ATL contained invalid entries. The conversion has been
improved so that it now firstly handles encountered
errors and write an informative message (into the
converted stream) and secondly keeps count of the
number of successful or failed entry conversions. See
log_to_txt for more info.
The reason the ATL contained invalid entries have also
been fixed. The reason was that for some outgoing
messages (not response):
-- encrypted (v3 messages)
Was logged "as is" (encrypted) without the info to
decrypt, making conversion impossible (which was the
reason the log contained bad entries).
-- un-encrypted
Was not logged at all.

тАЬcertificate_listтАЭ ordering was required to be strict,
however some implementations already allowed for some
flexibility. For maximum compatibility, all
implementations SHOULD be prepared to handle
potentially extraneous certificates and arbitrary
orderings from any TLS version.
OTP-15060 Application(s): ssl
TLS will now try to reconstructed an incomplete
certificate chains from its local CA-database and use
that data for the certificate path validation. This
especially makes sense for partial chains as then the
peer might not send an intermediate CA as it is
considered the trusted root in that case.
OTP-15193 Application(s): ssl
Option keyfile defaults to certfile and should be
trumped with key. This failed for engine keys.
OTP-15234 Application(s): ssl
Error message improvement when own certificate has
decoding issues, see also issue ERL-668.

Update to 21.0.9. From the release announcements:
--- POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITIES -------------------------------------
OTP-15225 Application(s): 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-7.2.4 --------------------------------------------------

--- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---
OTP-15289 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): ERIERL-235, ERL-576, OTP-14943
As of ERTS version 10.0 (OTP 21.0) the erl_child_setup
program, which creates port programs, ignores TERM
signals. This setting was unintentionally inherited by
port programs. Handling of TERM signals in port
programs has now been restored to the default behavior.
That is, terminate the process.
OTP-15296 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): ERIERL-226, OTP-15279
The fix made for OTP-15279 in erts-10.07 (OTP-21.0.8)
was not complete. It could cause a new connection
attempt to be incorrectly aborted in certain cases.
This fix will amend that flaw.
OTP-15275 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): PR-1943
A process could get stuck in an infinite rescheduling
loop between normal and dirty schedulers. This bug was
introduced in ERTS version 10.0.
Thanks to Maxim Fedorov for finding and fixing this
issue.

Related Id(s): ERIERL-226
Garbage collection of a distribution entry could cause
an emulator crash if net_kernel had not brought
previous connection attempts on it down properly.
OTP-15237 Application(s): erts
A race between termination of a process and resume of
the same process via erlang:resume_process/1 could
cause the VM to crash. This bug was introduced in erts
version 10.0 (OTP 21.0).
OTP-15269 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): ERL-713
When tracing on running, in trace events could be lost
when a process was rescheduled between a dirty and a
normal scheduler.
OTP-15223 Application(s): 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.
OTP-15225 Application(s): erts
*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***

--- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---
OTP-15233 Application(s): crypto
Update the crypto engine functions to handle multiple
loads of an engine.
engine_load/3/4 is updated so it doesn't add the engine
ID to OpenSSLs internal list of engines which makes it
possible to run the engine_load more than once if it
doesn't contain global data.
Added ensure_engine_loaded/2/3 which guarantees that
the engine just is loaded once and the following calls
just returns a reference to it. This is done by add the
ID to the internal OpenSSL list and check if it is
already registered when the function is called.
Added ensure_engine_unloaded/1/2 to unload engines
loaded with ensure_engine_loaded.
Then some more utility functions are added.
engine_add/1, adds the engine to OpenSSL internal list
engine_remove/1, remove the engine from OpenSSL
internal list
engine_get_id/1, fetch the engines id
engine_get_name/1, fetch the engine name

lang/erlang*: Update to 21.0
Potential Incompatibilities - All Corba applications are now moved from the OTP repository - A new Corba repository will be created https://github.com/erlang - New applications ftp and tftp, moved from inets - ssl no longer supports 3_DES cipher suites or RSA-key exchange cipher suites by default - Erlang:monitor on a primitive node (erl_interface, jinterface, etc) will no longer fail with badarg exception. Instead a monitor will be created, but it will only supervise the connection to the node. Erts: - Enhanced IO scalability - Support for usage of distribution controller processes for alternative transports, routing etc - compact instructions on 64bit systems for code below 4GB 20% less memory for loaded code - Rewrite of the efile-driver with NIFs and "Dirty schedulers" resulting in faster file operations - non-smp VM removed - link and monitor optimized for scalability - os:getenv/putenv now work on thread-safe emulation. No longer in sync with libc getenv(3). Manual synchronization will be needed. Compiler: - Misc compiler optimizations including contributions from the Elixir team resulting in 10% improvements in benchmarks - "Tuple calls" have been removed from the run-time system. - Code such as f({ok, Val}) -> {ok, Val} is now automatically rewritten to f({ok, Val} = Tuple) -> Tuple. this reduces code size, execution time, and removed GC pressure. - More information in stacktrace from a number of operators - erlang:get_stacktrace/0 deprecated to be replaced with try ... catch C:R:Stacktrace -> ... - Creation of small maps with literal keys optimized. - A new predefined macro OTP_RELEASE and preprocessor directives -if and -elif Security: - DTLS is now supported in the SSL application - Enhanced support for distribution over TLS - "unsecure" ciphers removed from defaults in SSL and SSH. - A new option value defined to facilitate implementing exec servers. Old option kept for compatibility, but now gives errors on stderror. Standard libraries: - New API for logging, logger - New uri_string module for parsing URIs according to "The standard" - New function lists:search(list,fun/1) -> {ok, Value} | false - Changed default behaviour of .erlang loading. escript, erlc, dialyzer and typer no longer load an .erlang at all. |

Potential Incompatibilities
---------------------------
- ERTS:
- The non SMP Erlang VM is deprecated and not built by default
- Remove deprecated erlang:hash/2
- erlang:statistics/1 with scheduler_wall_time now also includes
info about dirty CPU schedulers.
- The new purge strategy introduced in OTP 19.1 is mandatory and
slightly incompatible for processes holding funs

that the DFLAG_UTF8_ATOMS capability in the distribution protocol
must be supported if an OTP 20 node should accept the connection
with another node or library.
- Asn1: Deprecated module and functions removed (asn1rt,
asn1ct:encode/3 and decode/3)
- Ssh: client only option in a call to start a daemon will now fail
Highlights
----------
- Erts:

'a'=>3} will warn for the repeated key a.
- By default there is now a warning when export_all is used. Can be
disabled
- Pattern matching for maps is optimized
- New option deterministic to omit path to source + options info the
BEAM file.
- Atoms may now contain arbitrary unicode characters.
- compile:file/2 has an option to include extra chunks in the BEAM
file.
- Misc other applications
- Significantly updated string module with unicode support and many
new functions

Update lang/erlang* to 19.3.
Some highlights for 19.3: - crypto, ssh: The implementation of the key exchange algorithms diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha* are optimized, up to a factor of 11 for the slowest ( = biggest and safest) group size. - dialyzer: The peak memory consumption is reduced. Analyzing modules with binary construction with huge strings is now much faster. - erts: A received SIGTERM signal to beam will generate a 'stop' message to the init process and terminate the Erlang VM nicely. This is equivalent to calling init:stop/0. - kernel: The functions in the 'file' module that take a list of paths (e.g. file:path_consult/2) will now continue to search in the path if the path contains something that is not a directory. - public_key: New function pkix_verify_hostname/2,3 Implements certificate hostname checking. See the manual and RFC 6125. - public_key, ssh: The ssh host key fingerprint generation now also takes a list of algorithms and returns a list of corresponding fingerprints. See public_key:ssh_hostkey_fingerprint/2 and the option silently_accept_hosts in ssh:connect. - ssl: Move PEM cache to a dedicated process, to avoid making the SSL manager process a bottleneck. This improves scalability of TLS connections. - stdlib: filename:safe_relative_path/1 to sanitize a relative path has been added. Full release notes: http://erlang.org/download/otp_src_19.3.readme |

Update lang/erlang{,-doc,-man} to 19.2.
Erlang/OTP 19.2 is the second service release for the 19 major release.
The service release contains mostly bug fixes and characteristics
improvements.
Some highlights for 19.2
* STDLIB: The new behaviour gen_statem has been improved with 3 new
features: the possibility to use old style non-proxy timeouts
for gen_statem:call/2,3, state entry code, and state
timeouts. These are backwards compatible. Minor code and
documentation improvements has been performed including a
borderline semantics correction of timeout zero handling.
* SSL: Experimental version of DTLS. It is runnable but not complete
and cannot be considered reliable for production usage. To use
DTLS add the option {protocol, dtls} to ssl:connect and ssl:listen.
* SSH: Extended the option silently_accept_hosts for ssh:connect to
make it possible for the client to check the SSH host key
fingerprint string. Se the reference manual for SSH.
* ~40 contributions since the previous service release OTP 19.1

Update lang/erlang to 18.1.
Some highlights of the release are: - 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. Full release notes: http://www.erlang.org/download/otp_src_18.1.readme |

Update erlang to 18.0.
- Starting from 18.0 Erlang/OTP is released under the APL 2.0
- 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.
- erts: Beside the API changes and time warp modes a lot of scalability
and performance improvements regarding time management has been made
- 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.
- 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).
- ets:update_counter/4 with a default object as
argument

Update Erlang/OTP to R16B02.
R16B02 is the second maintenance release for the R16B major release. You can find the README file for the release at http://www.erlang.org/download/otp_src_R16B02.readme R16B01 is the first maintenance release for the R16B major release. You can find the README file for the release at http://www.erlang.org/download/otp_src_R16B01.readme Highlights for R16B01: OTP-10279 == erts == Support for migration of memory carriers between memory allocator instances has been introduced. By default this feature is not enabled and do not effect the characteristics of the system. When enabled it has the following impact on the characteristics of the system: -- Reduced memory footprint when the memory load is unevenly distributed between scheduler specific allocator instances. -- Depending on the default allocaton strategy used on a specific allocator there might or might not be a slight performance loss. -- When enabled on the fix_alloc allocator, a different strategy for management of fix blocks will be used. -- The information returned from erlang:system_info({allocator, A}), and erlang:system_info({allocator_sizes, A}) will be slightly different when this feature has been enabled. An mbcs_pool tuple will be present giving information about abandoned carriers, and in the fix_alloc case no fix_types tuple will be present. For more information, see the documentation of the +M<S>acul command line argument. OTP-11009 == ssl public_key crypto common_test dialyzer ssh stdlib snmp inets == Integrate elliptic curve contribution from Andreas Schultz In order to be able to support elliptic curve cipher suites in SSL/TLS, additions to handle elliptic curve infrastructure has been added to public_key and crypto. This also has resulted in a rewrite of the crypto API to gain consistency and remove unnecessary overhead. All OTP applications using crypto has been updated to use the new API. Impact: Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) offers equivalent security with smaller key sizes than other public key algorithms. Smaller key sizes result in savings for power, memory, bandwidth, and computational cost that make ECC especially attractive for constrained environments. OTP-11159 == erts == Lift static limitation (FD_SETSIZE) for file descriptors on Mac OS X. (Thanks to Anthony Ramine) |

Update to Erlang/OTP R16B (designated as 16.1 in pkgsrc).
R16B is a major new release of Erlang/OTP. Detailed information on changes can be fetched at http://www.erlang.org/download/otp_src_R16B.readme --- HIGHLIGHTS ---------------------------------------------------------- OTP-7786 == ssh == Added User Guide for the SSH application OTP-9892 == erts == Process optimizations. The most notable: -- New internal process table implementation allowing for both parallel reads as well as writes. Especially read operations have become really cheap. This reduce contention in various situations. For example when, spawning processes, terminating processes, sending messages, etc. -- Optimizations of run queue management reducing contention. -- Optimizations of process state changes reducing contention. These changes imply changes of the characteristics the system. Most notable: changed timing in the system. OTP-9974 == erts == Non-blocking code loading. Earlier when an Erlang module was loaded, all other execution in the VM were halted while the load operation was carried out in single threaded mode. Now modules are loaded without blocking the VM. Processes may continue executing undisturbed in parallel during the entire load operation. The load operation is completed by making the loaded code visible to all processes in a consistent way with one single atomic instruction. Non-blocking code loading will improve realtime characteristics when modules are loaded/upgraded on a running SMP system. OTP-10256 == inets == httpc: The HTTP client now supports HTTPS through proxies OTP-10336 == erts == Major port improvements. The most notable: -- New internal port table implementation allowing for both parallel reads as well as writes. Especially read operations have become really cheap.This reduce contention in various situations. For example when, creating ports, terminating ports, etc. -- Dynamic allocation of port structures. This allow for a much larger maximum amount of ports allowed as a default. The previous default of 1024 has been raised to 65536. Maximum amount of ports can be set using the +Q command line flag of erl(1). The previously used environment variable ERL_MAX_PORTS has been deprecated and scheduled for removal in OTP-R17. -- Major rewrite of scheduling of port tasks. Major benefits of the rewrite are reduced contention on run queue locks, and reduced amount of memory allocation operations needed. The rewrite was also necessary in order to make it possible to schedule signals from processes to ports. -- Improved internal thread progress functionality for easy management of unmanaged threads. This improvement was necessary for the rewrite of the port task scheduling. -- Rewrite of all process to port signal implementations in order to make it possible to schedule those operations. All port operations can now be scheduled which allows for reduced lock contention on the port lock as well as truly asynchronous communication with ports. -- Optimized lookup of port handles from drivers. -- Optimized driver lookup when creating ports. -- Preemptable erlang:ports/0 BIF. -- Improving responsiveness by bumping reductions for a process calling a driver callback directly. These changes imply changes of the characteristics of the system. The most notable: -- Order of signal delivery -- The previous implementation of the VM has delivered signals from processes to ports in a synchronous stricter fashion than required by the language. As of ERTS version 5.10, signals are truly asynchronously delivered. The order of signal delivery still adheres to the requirements of the language, but only to the requirements. That is, some signal sequences that previously always were delivered in one specific order may now from time to time be delivered in different orders. This may cause Erlang programs that have made false assumptions about signal delivery order to fail even though they previously succeeded. For more information about signal ordering guarantees, see the chapter on communication in the ERTS user's guide. The +n command line flag of erl(1) can be helpful when trying to find signaling order bugs in Erlang code that have been exposed by these changes. -- Latency of signals sent from processes to ports -- Signals from processes to ports where previously always delivered immediately. This kept latency for such communication to a minimum, but it could cause lock contention which was very expensive for the system as a whole. In order to keep this latency low also in the future, most signals from processes to ports are by default still delivered immediately as long as no conflicts occur. Such conflicts include not being able to acquire the port lock, but also include other conflicts. When a conflict occur, the signal will be scheduled for delivery at a later time. A scheduled signal delivery may cause a higher latency for this specific communication, but improves the overall performance of the system since it reduce lock contention between schedulers. The default behavior of only scheduling delivery of these signals on conflict can be changed by passing the +spp command line flag to erl(1). The behavior can also be changed on port basis using the parallelism option of the open_port/2 BIF. -- Execution time of the erlang:ports/0 BIF -- Since erlang:ports/0 now can be preempted, the responsiveness of the system as a whole has been improved. A call to erlang:ports/0 may, however, take a much longer time to complete than before. How much longer time heavily depends on the system load. -- Reduction cost of calling driver callbacks -- Calling a driver callback is quite costly. This was previously not reflected in reduction cost at all. Since the reduction cost now has increased, a process performing lots of direct driver calls will be scheduled out more frequently than before. Potential incompatibilities: -- driver_send_term() has been deprecated and has been scheduled for removal in OTP-R17. Replace usage of driver_send_term() with usage of erl_drv_send_term(). -- driver_output_term() has been deprecated and has been scheduled for removal in OTP-R17. Replace usage of driver_output_term() with usage of erl_drv_output_term(). -- The new function erl_drv_busy_msgq_limits() has been added in order to able to control management of port queues. The driver API version has been bumped to 2.1 from 2.0 due to the above changes in the driver API. OTP-10410 == asn1 == The options for the ASN.1 compiler has been drastically simplified. The backend is chosen by using ber, per, or uper. The options optimize, nif, and driver are no longer needed. The old options will still work, but will issue a warning. Another change is that generated encode/2 function will always return a binary (some backends used to return an iolist). OTP-10588 == asn1 == The ASN.1 compiler will now always include necessary run-time functions in the generated Erlang modules (except for asn1rt_nif which is still neeeded). If the option 'inline' is used the ASN.1 compiler will generate a warning. But if '{inline,OutputFile}' is use, the ASN.1 compiler will refuse to compile the file. (Use a .set.asn file if you need to remove the output file.) The 'BIT STRING' type will now be decoded as Erlang bitstrings by default. Use the new legacy_bit_string option to encode as lists of ones and zeroes. (The compact_bit_string option still works as before.) Open types are now always returned as binaries (when there is no information allowing them to be decoded). --- POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITIES ----------------------------------------- OTP-9052 == common_test == Removed depricated run_test program, use ct_run instead. OTP-9881 == common_test == It is now possible to let a test specification include other test specifications. Included specs can either be joined with the source spec (and all other joined specs), resulting in one single test run, or they can be executed in separate test runs. Also, a start flag/option, join_specs, has been introduced, to be used in combination with the spec option. With join_specs, Common Test can be told to either join multiple test specifications, or run them separately. Without join_specs, the latter behaviour is default. Note that this is a change compared to earlier versions of Common Test, where specifications could only be joined. More information can be found in the Running Tests chapter in the User's Guide (see the Test Specifications section). OTP-10117 == inviso == The inviso application has been removed. OTP-10170 == erts pman == Tuple funs (deprecated in R15B) are no longer supported. OTP-10195 == edoc == Since EDoc 0.7.7 (R14B02) separate values of union types can be annotated. However, the parser has hitherto chosen not to add the necessary parentheses due to backwards compatibility. From this release on code traversing the output of edoc_parser needs to take care of parentheses around separate values of union types. Examples of such code are layout modules and doclet modules. OTP-10336 == erts == Major port improvements. The most notable: -- New internal port table implementation allowing for both parallel reads as well as writes. Especially read operations have become really cheap.This reduce contention in various situations. For example when, creating ports, terminating ports, etc. -- Dynamic allocation of port structures. This allow for a much larger maximum amount of ports allowed as a default. The previous default of 1024 has been raised to 65536. Maximum amount of ports can be set using the +Q command line flag of erl(1). The previously used environment variable ERL_MAX_PORTS has been deprecated and scheduled for removal in OTP-R17. -- Major rewrite of scheduling of port tasks. Major benefits of the rewrite are reduced contention on run queue locks, and reduced amount of memory allocation operations needed. The rewrite was also necessary in order to make it possible to schedule signals from processes to ports. -- Improved internal thread progress functionality for easy management of unmanaged threads.

All port operations can now be scheduled which allows for reduced lock contention on the port lock as well as truly asynchronous communication with ports. -- Optimized lookup of port handles from drivers. -- Optimized driver lookup when creating ports. -- Preemptable erlang:ports/0 BIF. -- Improving responsiveness by bumping reductions for a process calling a driver callback directly.

Another change is that generated encode/2 function will always return a binary (some backends used to return an iolist). OTP-10417 == kernel sasl == It is no longer possible to have {Mod,Vsn} in the 'modules' list in a .app file. This was earlier possible, although never documented in the .app file reference manual. It was however visible in the documentation of application:load/[1,2], where the same term as in a .app file can be used as the first argument. The possibility has been removed since the Vsn part was never used. OTP-10451 == ssl == Remove filter mechanisms that made error messages backwards compatible with old ssl but hid information about what actually happened. This does not break the documented API however other reason terms may be returned, so code that matches on the reason part of {error, Reason} may fail. OTP-10490 == stdlib == If a child process fails in its start function, then the error reason was earlier only reported as an error report from the error_handler, and supervisor:start_link would only return {error,shutdown}. This has been changed so the supervisor will now return {error,{shutdown,Reason}}, where Reason identifies the failing child and its error reason. (Thanks to Tomas Pihl) OTP-10523 == tools == A new function, cover:flush(Nodes), is added which will fetch data from remote nodes without stopping cover on those nodes. This is used by test_server and common_test when it is safe to assume that the node will be terminated after the test anyway. The purpose is to avoid processes crashing when re-loading the original beam if the processes is still running old code. Remote nodes will now continue to count code coverage if the connection to the main node is broken. Earlier, a broken connection would cause the cover_server on the remote node to die and thus any still cover compiled modules would cause process crash when trying to insert cover data in ets tables that used to exist on the cover_server. The new functionality also involves synchronization with the main node if the nodes are reconnected. OTP-10588 == asn1 == The ASN.1 compiler will now always include necessary run-time functions in the generated Erlang modules (except for asn1rt_nif which is still neeeded). If the option 'inline' is used the ASN.1 compiler will generate a warning. But if '{inline,OutputFile}' is use, the ASN.1 compiler will refuse to compile the file. (Use a .set.asn file if you need to remove the output file.) The 'BIT STRING' type will now be decoded as Erlang bitstrings by default. Use the new legacy_bit_string option to encode as lists of ones and zeroes. (The compact_bit_string option still works as before.) Open types are now always returned as binaries (when there is no information allowing them to be decoded). OTP-10613 == ssl == Removed deprecated function ssl:pid/0, it has been pointless since R14 but has been keep for backwards compatibility. OTP-10633 == erts == Erlang specification 4.7.3 defines max tuple size to 65535 elements It is now enforced to no more than 16777215 elements (arity 24 bits) Previous edge cases (28 bits) were not validated and could cause undefined behaviour. OTP-10647 == erts == The previous default of a maximum of 32768 simultaneous processes has been raised to 262144. This value can be changed using the the +P command line flag of erl(1). Note that the value passed now is considered as a hint, and that actual value chosen in most cases will be a power of two. OTP-10812 == stdlib == filelib:wildcard("some/relative/path/*.beam", Path) would fail to match any file. That is, filelib:wildcard/2 would not work if the first component of the pattern did not contain any wildcard characters. (A previous attempt to fix the problem in R15B02 seems to have made matters worse.) (Thanks to Samuel Rivas and Tuncer Ayaz.) There is also an incompatible change to the Path argument. It is no longer allowed to be a binary. OTP-10872 == erts == As of ERTS-5.10/OTP-R16A node names passed in the EPMD protocol are required to be encoded in UTF-8. Since EPMD previously accepted latin1 encoded node names this is an incompatibility. However, since Erlang nodes always have required characters in node names to be 7-bit ASCII characters (and still do require this), this incompatibility should not effect anyone using EPMD as an Erlang Port Mapper Daemon. |

Update to Erlang/OTP R15B03-1
Changes in R15B03-1 After the release of R15B03 a very unfortunate bug in ssl:ssl_accept/2 (accept with timeout) was detected. This bug will have negative impact on a number of popular http servers and server frameworks written in Erlang. The differences from R15B03 are in ssl-5.1.2 and erts-5.9.3.1. Full log at http://www.erlang.org/download/otp_src_R15B03-1.readme Changes in R15B03 Mostly bug fixes and small improvements. Full log at http://www.erlang.org/download/otp_src_R15B03.readme Changes in R15B02 Highlights OTP-8871 == ssl == Experimental support for TLS 1.1 is now available, will be officially supported from OTP-R16. Thanks to Andreas Schultz for implementing the first version. OTP-8872 == ssl == Experimental support for TLS 1.2 is now available, will be officially supported from OTP-R16. Thanks to Andreas Schultz for implementing the first version. OTP-10113 == ssl == Removed some bottlenecks increasing the applications parallelism especially for the client side.

Update to Erlang/OTP R15B02
Changes in Erlang/OTP R15B01 Highlights: * Dialyzer: The type analysis tool Dialyzer is optimized to be generally faster. - It can now also run in parallel (default) on SMP systems and by this perform the analysis significantly faster (Thanks to Stavros Aronis and Kostis Sagonas) * The SSL application now has experimental support for the TLS 1.1 and 1.2 standards as well (Thanks to Andreas Schultz). * CommonTest: It is now possible to sort the generated html tables. A Netconf client (ct_netconf) which support basic netconf over ssh is added * Diameter: Statistics counters related to Diameter messages can now be retrieved by calling the diameter:service_info/2 function. * Various smaller optimizations in the Erlang VM * This release also contains 66 contributions from users outside the Ericsson team |

Update to Erlang/OTP R15B01
Presumably fixes PR pkg/46297
Changes in Erlang/OTP R15B01
Highlights:
* Added erlang:statistics(scheduler_wall_time) to ensure
correct determination of scheduler utilization. Measuring
scheduler utilization is strongly preferred over CPU
utilization, since CPU utilization gives very poor
indications of actual scheduler/vm usage.
* Changed ssh implementation to use the public_key application
for all public key handling. This is also a first step for
enabling a callback API for supplying public keys and
handling keys protected with password phrases. Additionally
the test suites where improved so that they do not copy the
users keys to test server directories as this is a security
liability. Also ipv6 and file access issues found in the
process has been fixed.
* When an escript ends now all printout to standard output and
standard error gets out on the terminal. This bug has been
corrected by changing the behaviour of erlang:halt/0,1,
which should fix the same problem for other escript-like
applications, i.e. that data stored in the output port
driver buffers got lost when printing on a TTY and exiting
through erlang:halt/0,1. The BIF:s erlang:halt/0,1 has
gotten improved semantics and there is a new BIF
erlang:halt/2 to accomplish something like the old
semantics. See the documentation.
* The DTrace source patch from Scott Lystig Fritchie is
integrated in the source tree. Using an emulator with dtrace
probe is still not supported for production use, but may be
a valuable debugging tool.
* Added Torbjörn Törnkvists LDAP client as a new application
called eldap.
* Added options for the ssh client to support user keys files
that are password protected.
Changes in Erlang/OTP R15B
Highlights:
* Line number and filename information are now included in
exception backtraces. This information will be
pretty-printed in the shell and used in crash reports etc.
In practice it will be much easier to find where something
failed.
* The driver interface has been changed to enable 64-bit aware
drivers. Most importantly the return types for ErlDrvEntry
callbacks 'call' and 'control' has been changed which
require drivers to be changed.
* New in this release is the support for 64 bit Windows.
The self extracting installer can be found here.
* CommonTest hooks are now in a final supported version.
* There is a new GUI tool in the observer application which
integrates pman, etop, appmon and tv into one tool. The tool
does also contain functions for activating tracing in an easy way.
* The Erlang distribution can now be run over the new SSL implementation.
Changes in Erlang/OTP R15A
Notable changes:
OTP-9468 'Line numbers in exceptions'
OTP-9451 'Parallel make'
OTP-4779 A new GUI for Observer. Integrating pman, etop and tv into
observer with tracing facilities.
OTP-7775 A number of memory allocation optimizations have been
implemented. Most optimizations reduce contention caused by
synchronization between threads during allocation and
deallocation of memory. Most notably:
Synchronization of memory management in scheduler
specific allocator instances has been rewritten to
use lock-free synchronization.
Synchronization of memory management in scheduler
specific pre-allocators has been rewritten to use
lock-free synchronization.
The 'mseg_alloc' memory segment allocator now use
scheduler specific instances instead of one
instance. Apart from reducing contention this also
ensures that memory allocators always create memory
segments on the local NUMA node on a NUMA system.
OTP-9632 An ERTS internal, generic, many to one, lock-free
queue for communication between threads has been
introduced. The many to one scenario is very common in
ERTS, so it can be used in a lot of places in the
future. Currently it is used by scheduling of certain
jobs, and the async thread pool, but more uses are
planned for the future.
Drivers using the driver_async functionality are not
automatically locked to the system anymore, and can be
unloaded as any dynamically linked in driver.
Scheduling of ready async jobs is now also interleaved
in between other jobs. Previously all ready async jobs
were performed at once.
OTP-9631 The ERTS internal system block functionality has been
replaced by new functionality for blocking the system.
The old system block functionality had contention
issues and complexity issues. The new functionality
piggy-backs on thread progress tracking functionality
needed by newly introduced lock-free synchronization
in the runtime system. When the functionality for
blocking the system isn't used, there is more or less
no overhead at all. This since the functionality for
tracking thread progress is there and needed anyway.
