- update to 21.1.1:
- Changes for 21.1.1:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.1.1.README
* erts: Fixed a memory leak on errors when reading files.
* ssl: From ssl-9.0.2. CLOSE ALERTS could under some
circumstances be encoded using an incorrect cipher
state. This would cause the peer to regard them as
unknown messages.
* ssl: Correct handling of socket packet option with new TLS
sender process, from ssl-9.0.2. When changing the
socket option {packet, 1|2|3|4} with ssl:setopts/2 the
option must internally be propagated to the sender
process as well as the reader process as this
particular option also affects the data to be sent.
* eldap: A race condition at close could cause the eldap client
to exit with a badarg message as cause.
- Changes for 21.1:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.1.README
* ssh: The key exchange methods
'curve25519-sha256@libssh.org', 'curve25519-sha256' and
'curve448-sha512' are implemented. The last two are
defined in
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-curdle-ssh-curves
They all depends on that OpenSSL 1.1.1 or higher is
used as cryptolib.
* crypto: The typing in the CRYPTO and PUBLIC_KEY applications
are reworked and a few mistakes are corrected.
The documentation is now generated from the typing and
some clarifications are made.
A new chapter on Algorithm Details such as key sizes
and availability is added to the CRYPTO User's Guide.
* erts: The socket options recvtos, recvttl, recvtclass and
pktoptions have been implemented in the socket modules.
See the documentation for the gen_tcp, gen_udp and inet
modules. Note that support for these in the runtime
system is platform dependent. Especially for pktoptions
which is very Linux specific and obsoleted by the RFCs
that defined it.
* ssh: The cipher 'chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com' is now
supported if OpenSSL 1.1.1 or higher is used as
cryptolib.
- Changes for 21.0.9:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.0.9.README
* compiler: Fix a regression in OTP-15204 that removed .beam file
metadata that some external build tools relied on.
* erts: 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.
* erts: 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.
- Changes for 21.0.8:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.0.8.
* erts: A process could get stuck in an infinite rescheduling
loop between normal and dirty schedulers. This bug was
introduced in ERTS version 10.0.
* erts: Garbage collection of a distribution entry could cause
an emulator crash if net_kernel had not brought
previous connection attempts on it down properly.
* kernel: Fixed bug in net_kernel that could cause an emulator
crash if certain connection attempts failed. Bug exists
since kernel-6.0 (OTP-21.0).
- Changes for 21.0.7:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.0.7.
* 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).
* erts: When tracing on running, in trace events could be lost
when a process was rescheduled between a dirty and a
normal scheduler.
- Changes for 21.0.6:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.0.6.README
* crypto: Update the crypto engine functions to handle multiple
loads of an engine.
* inets: Change status code for no mod found to handle request
to 501
* ssl: Correct cipher suite handling for ECDHE_*, the
incorrect handling could cause an incorrrect suite to
be selected and most likly fail the handshake.
- Changes for 21.0.5:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.0.5.README
* POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITIES 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.
* compiler: Fixed an issue where files compiled with the
+deterministic option differed if they were compiled in
a different directory but were otherwise identical.
* crypto: Fixed a node crash in crypto:compute_key(ecdh, ...)
when passing a wrongly typed Others argument.
* 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.
- Changes for 21.0.4:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.0.4.README
* erts: Fixed a crash when matching directly against a literal
map using a single key that had been saved on the
stack.
* erts: Fix node crash when passing a bad time option to
file:read_file_info/2.
- Changes for 21.0.3:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.0.3.README
* otp: Build support for the erlang/corba repository.
* erts: Fixed a scheduler bug that caused normal schedulers to
run dirty code.
* erts: Fixed a bug in erlang:trace_info/2 which caused the
emulator to crash when a bad argument was passed. The
bug was introduced in ERTS version 10.0.
- Changes for 21.0.2:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.0.2.README
* compiler: In rare cases involving matching of binary literal
strings, the compiler could optimize away code that
should be executed.
* compiler:There could be an internal consistency check failure
when compiling code that called map_get(Key, Map) and
then updated the same map.
* compiler: In rare circumstances, the compiler could crash in
beam_jump when compiling a floating point operation.
* erts: Fixed a rare bug that could cause processes to be
scheduled after they had been freed
* erts: Fixed a race condition in the inet driver that could
cause receive to hang when the emulator was compiled
with gcc 8.
* public_key: Fix some of the keylengths in the newly generated moduli
file in public_key are not universally supported. This
could cause the SSH key exchange
diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha* to fail.
Those keylengths are now removed.
* stdlib: Fix a bug that could cause a crash when formatting a
list of non-characters using the control sequences p or
P and limiting the output with the option chars_limit.
- Changes for 21.0.1:
- http://erlang.org/download/OTP-21.0.1.
* compiler:The compiler could crash when compiling a
complicated function that used the binary syntax.
- Changes for 21.0:
- http://erlang.org/download/otp_src_21.0.readme
* Erlang/OTP 21 is a new major release with new features, improvements as well as incompatibilities.
* 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.
* Highlights
* 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

Could you please use consistent indent in changelog?


gabriele santomaggio's avatar

Ops sorry, I changed it: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/home:gsantomaggio:branches:devel:languages:erlang:Factory/erlangupdate/erlang.changes?expand=1

Can't see the changes here, do I have to send another "Submit package"?

thank you

You need to create new submit request.

Did it, thank you! I am not familiar (yet) with the tool :)
