erts-13.2.2.3 #

Note! The erts-13.2.2.3 application *cannot* be applied independently of other applications on an arbitrary OTP 25 installation. On a full OTP 25 installation, also the following runtime dependencies have to be satisfied: -- kernel-8.5 (first satisfied in OTP 25.1) -- stdlib-4.1 (first satisfied in OTP 25.1)

A process optimized for parallel signal delivery could under some circumstances lose wakeup information. That is, the processes was not woken up to take care of the signal, so the signal would not be taken care of until the process was woken by another signal. Only processes configured with message_queue_data set to off_heap utilize this optimization.

Delivery time of message signals to a process not executing any receive expressions could become very long, potentially infinite. For example, a process checking for messages using process_info(self(), message_queue_len) or process_info(self(), messages) and avoiding to execute a receive expression matching on messages could be very slow in detecting new messages. Note that you are still discouraged from using process_info() this way. A process that wants to check if there are messages available to handle should execute a receive expression matching on messages.

Fix bug causing "magic" references in a compressed ETS table to not keep the referred object alive. The symptom would be the referred object being garbage collected prematurely and the reference appearing stale, not referring to anything. Examples of such magically referred objects are atomics and NIF resources.

A constant flow of incoming non-message signals could prevent a process needing to execute dirty from doing so.

The cleanup operation of not yet delivered signals to a terminated process yielded excessively.

Stop and restart of the httpd server in the Inets application has been refactored to a more synchronous and OTP supervisor friendly approach.

This should increase stability and for example avoid a supervisor report from httpd_connection_sup about killed child process(es) in some cases when stopping or restarting httpd.
