Patch Package: OTP 19.1.6 Git Tag: OTP-19.1.6 Date: 2016-11-09 Trouble Report Id: OTP-13956, OTP-13997, OTP-14009 Seq num: System: OTP Release: 19 Application: erts-8.1.1 Predecessor: OTP 19.1.5 Check out the git tag OTP-19.1.6, and build a full OTP system including documentation. Apply one or more applications from this build as patches to your installation using the 'otp_patch_apply' tool. For information on install requirements, see descriptions for each application version below. --------------------------------------------------------------------- --- erts-8.1.1 ------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Note! The erts-8.1.1 application can *not* be applied independently of other applications on an arbitrary OTP 19 installation. On a full OTP 19 installation, also the following runtime dependency has to be satisfied: -- sasl-3.0.1 (first satisfied in OTP 19.1) --- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions --- OTP-13956 Application(s): erts Related Id(s): ERL-133, ERL-262 The emulator got a dynamic library dependency towards libsctp, which on Linux was not intended since the emulator there loads and resolves the needed sctp functions in runtime. This has been fixed and a configure switch --enable-sctp=lib has been added for those who want such a library dependency. OTP-13997 Application(s): erts Fix SIGUSR1 crashdump generation Do not generate a core when a crashdump is asked for. OTP-14009 Application(s): erts The new functions in code that allows loading of many modules at once had a performance problem. While executing a helper function in the erl_prim_loader process, garbage messages were produced. The garbages messages were ignored and ultimately discarded, but there would be a negative impact on performance and memory usage. The number of garbage message depended on both the number of modules to be loaded and the length of the code path. The functions affected of this problem were: atomic_load/1, ensure_modules_loaded/1, and prepare_loading/1.
