erts-10.3.1 #

Note! The erts-10.3.1 application can *not* be applied independently of other applications on an arbitrary OTP 21 installation. On a full OTP 21 installation, also the following runtime dependencies have to be satisfied: -- kernel-6.1 (first satisfied in OTP 21.1) -- sasl-3.3 (first satisfied in OTP 21.2)

OTP-15688
Application(s):
erts

If a suspend/resume signal pair was sent to a process while it was executing dirty, the receiving process could later end up in a suspended state indefinitely. This bug was introduced in ERTS version 10.0 (OTP 21.0).

Suspend/resume signals are sent from erlang:suspend_process()/erlang:resume_process(). The dbg trace tool utilize this functionality and could thus trigger this bug.
