Check out the git tag OTP-20.3.8.21, 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.

--- HIGHLIGHTS ------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
OTP-15691 Application(s): snmp
Related Id(s): ERIERL-324
[snmp|agent] Add a get-mechanism callback module (and a
corresponding behaviour). The agent calls this module
to handle each get (get, get-next and get-bulk)
request.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
--- POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITIES -------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
OTP-15717 Application(s): common_test
Related Id(s): ERIERL-334
The test result when a hook function fails is in
general the same as if the function that the hook is
associated with fails. For example, if
post_init_per_testcase fails the result is that the
test case is skipped, as is the case when
init_per_testcase fails.This, however, was earlier not
true for timetrap timeouts or other error situations
where the process running the hook function was killed.
This is now corrected, so the error handling should be
the same no matter how the hook function fails.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
--- OTP-20.3.8.21 ---------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
--- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---
OTP-15551 Application(s): erts, otp
Fixes of install/release phase in build system.
-- The source tree was modified when
installing/releasing and/or applying a patch.
-- Some files were installed with wrong access rights.
-- If applying a patch (using otp_patch_apply) as
another user (except root) than the user that built the
source, the documentation was not properly updated.
OTP-15657 Application(s): erts, otp, tools
Minor fixes for make clean.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
--- common_test-1.15.4.2 --------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The common_test-1.15.4.2 application can be applied independently of
other applications on a full OTP 20 installation.
--- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---

*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***
The test result when a hook function fails is in
general the same as if the function that the hook is
associated with fails. For example, if
post_init_per_testcase fails the result is that the
test case is skipped, as is the case when
init_per_testcase fails.This, however, was earlier not

OTP-15758 Application(s): common_test
Related Id(s): ERIERL-342
In some rare cases, when two common_test nodes used the
same log directory, a timing problem could occur which
caused common_test to crash because it's log cache file
was unexpectedly empty. This is now corrected.
--- Improvements and New Features ---
OTP-14746 Application(s): common_test
Related Id(s): ERIERL-143
Two new common_test hook functions are introduced:
post_groups/2, which is called after Suite:groups/0
post_all/3, which is called after Suite:all/0
These functions allow modifying the return values from
the groups/0 and all/0 functions, respectively.
A new term, {testcase,TestCase,RepeatProperties} is now
also allowed in the return from all/0. This can be used
for repeating a single test case a specific number of
times, or until it fails or succeeds once.
OTP-15716 Application(s): common_test
OTP internal test improvements.

--- erl_interface-3.10.2.2 ------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The erl_interface-3.10.2.2 application can be applied independently
of other applications on a full OTP 20 installation.
--- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---
OTP-15757 Application(s): erl_interface
Fix handling of Makefile dependencies so that parallel
make works properly.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
The erts-9.3.3.10 application can be applied independently of other
applications on a full OTP 20 installation.

OTP-15551 Application(s): erts, otp

OTP-15657 Application(s): erts, otp, tools
Minor fixes for make clean.
OTP-15660 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): ERL-869
Fixed a bug in all ets:select* and ets:match* functions
that could in some rare cases lead to very poor
performance.
OTP-15690 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): PR-2172
Fix a possible deadlock when terminating the ERTS
caused by a dirty scheduler not releasing it's
run-queue lock when terminating.
OTP-15766 Application(s): erts
Add missing documentation of new external tags NEW_PID,
NEW_PORT and NEWER_REFERENCE introduced in OTP 19.
These new tags are planned to be "activated" in OTP 23
when distribution capability flag DFLAG_BIG_CREATION
becomes mandatory. Older nodes (>= 19) are able to
decode these new tags and send them back to the new
node. Nodes older than OTP 23 will however never encode
their own local pids, ports and references using the
new tags.

*** HIGHLIGHT ***
[snmp|agent] Add a get-mechanism callback module (and a

--- ssh-4.6.9.4 -----------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Note! The ssh-4.6.9.4 application *cannot* be applied independently
of other applications on an arbitrary OTP 20 installation.
On a full OTP 20 installation, also the following runtime
dependencies have to be satisfied:
-- crypto-4.2 (first satisfied in OTP 20.2)
-- public_key-1.5.2 (first satisfied in OTP 20.2)
--- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---
OTP-15763 Application(s): ssh
If a client was connected to an server on an already
open socket, the callback fun(PeerName,FingerPrint) in
the accept_callback option passed the local name in the
argument PeerName instead of the remote name.
