--- HIGHLIGHTS ------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
OTP-18746 Application(s): stdlib
Related Id(s): PR-7313, PR-7456
*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***
A warning for (accidental use of) Triple-Quoted Strings
has been implemented as per EEP 64.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
--- POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITIES -------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
OTP-18696 Application(s): stdlib
Pattern matching and equivalence (=:=, =/=) comparisons
on 0.0 will now raise a warning, as it will no longer
be considered equivalent to -0.0 in OTP 27.
If a match on 0.0 specifically is desired (distinct
from -0.0), the warning can be suppressed by writing
+0.0 instead.
The arithmetic comparison operators are unaffected,
including arithmetic equality (==).

--- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---
OTP-18729 Application(s): asn1
Related Id(s): PR-7575
The ASN.1 compiler would ignore a constraint such as
(SIZE (1..4), ...), causing incorrect behavior of the
encoding and decoding function for the PER and UPER
backends. Corrected to handle the constraint in the
same way as (SIZE (1..4, ...)).
--- Improvements and New Features ---
OTP-18748 Application(s): asn1
Related Id(s): ERIERL-957, PR-7637
The JER backend has been internally refactored in a way
that is compatible for applications that use the
documented API. However, for a group of ASN.1 modules
that depend on each other (for example,
S1AP-PDU-Descriptions, S1AP-Contents, and so on), all
modules in the group must be recompiled if on of the
group members is recompiled.

the current cgroup CPU quota.
OTP-18647 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): PR-7595
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.
OTP-18669 Application(s): erts, kernel
Related Id(s): OTP-18029
Function socket:close/1 could cause a VM crash on
Windows.
OTP-18672 Application(s): erts

Related Id(s): GH-7381
Fix compilation with GNU termcap.
OTP-18706 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): ERIERL-979, GH-7413, PR-7595
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.
OTP-18724 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): GH-7566, PR-7567
On AArch64 (ARM64), when calculating both the quotient
and remainder with a divisor begin a power two, the
remainder could be incorrectly calculated.
OTP-18732 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): GH-7444, PR-7458
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.
OTP-18733 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): GH-7292
Matching out short bitstrings with a fixed size not
divisible by 8 could could lead to the runtime system
terminating with an "Overrun heap and stack" error.
OTP-18737 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): PR-7595
A constant flow of incoming non-message signals could
prevent a process needing to execute dirty from doing
so.
OTP-18745 Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): GH-7492, PR-7616
A BEAM file usually contains a chunk with the tag
"Type" containing type information that can be used by
the JIT. The beam_lib:strip/1 takes care to preserve
that chunk, but a build/release tool that does
customized stripping could accidentally remove the
chunk. Loading a BEAM file without the "Type" chunk
could cause incorrect behavior of the loaded code.
OTP-18747 Application(s): erts, kernel

OTP-18605 Application(s): compiler, stdlib
Related Id(s): GH-7298, GH-7317
The compiler could run forever when compiling a call to
is_record/3 with a huge positive tuple size. The call
is_record(A, a, 0) would crash the compiler when used
in a function body. When used in a guard the compiler
would emit incorrect code that would accept {a> as a
record.

Correct return value for error case, so that it matches
the documented and intended return value {error,
{already_started, pid()} when local registered names

OTP-18633 Application(s): stdlib
sys:get_state/1,2 and sys:replace_state/2,3 has been
corrected to handle a state named error as a state
name, not as a failed system callback.
For the standard server behaviours this was an issue
only for gen_statem (and gen_fsm) when the state name
was error, and for gen_server if the complete state was
{error,_}.

Multiple problems were fixed in
filelib:safe_relative_path/2. If its second argument

Timers created by timer:apply_after/4,
apply_interval/4, and apply_repeatedly/4 would silently

corrected, and if the spawn fails, the system will be
taken down producing a crash dump.

OTP-18696 Application(s): stdlib
*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***
Pattern matching and equivalence (=:=, =/=) comparisons
on 0.0 will now raise a warning, as it will no longer
be considered equivalent to -0.0 in OTP 27.
If a match on 0.0 specifically is desired (distinct
from -0.0), the warning can be suppressed by writing
+0.0 instead.
The arithmetic comparison operators are unaffected,
including arithmetic equality (==).
