-
A process with message_queue_data configured as off_heap could end up in an inconsistent state when being receive traced, inspected using process_info/2 with the message_queue_len item, or inspected using the break menu (CTRL-C). When it ended up in this inconsistent state, it was not enqueued into a run queue even though it was set in a runnable state.This also effected signals being sent to the process after it had gotten into this inconsistent state, in such a way that it was from this point not possible to communicate with it.
- OTP-18839
-
A race occurring when a process was selected for dirty execution simultaneously as it was scheduled for handling a signal could cause the process to end up in an inconsistent state. When it ended up in this inconsistent state, it was not enqueued into a run queue even though it was set in a runnable state. This also effected signals being sent to the process after it had gotten into this inconsistent state, in such a way that it was from this point not possible to communicate with it.
- OTP-18841
-
When a process had to to wait in the run queue for a long time before being selected for dirty execution, it could not receive signals. This caused inspection of such a process, for example using process_info/2, to take a long time.
This issue was introduced in OTP 25.3.2.6 and 26.1 when fixing an issue where a constant flow of signals prevented a process from being able to execute dirty.

On OTP 24 and OTP 25, incoming distributed messages larger than 64 KiB sent using an alias leaked memory if the alias had been removed prior to entering the node. This issue was not present on OTP 26.
Incoming distributed messages larger than 64 KiB sent using an alias which had been removed on the receiving node could crash the node. This crash was quite unlikely on OTP 24 and OTP 25, but very likely on OTP 26.
'DOWN' signals with exit reason larger than 64 KiB directed towards a process on a node with a not matching creation leaked memory on the receiving node. Such signals should however be very rare.
