Check out the git tag OTP-27.1, 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

  • The zip module has been updated with support for:

    • zip64 archives - Archives larger than 4GB or with more than 2^32 entries.
    • extended timestamps - Higher resolution and in UTC.
    • UID/GID - Save and extract the original UID/GID.
    • Fixes so that permission mode attributes are correctly read and set for files in archives.
    • zip:list_dir/2 now also returns directories, not only files. (You can disable this behaviour by using the option skip_directories).

    Various bugs in the original implementation have also been fixed, such as:

    • Correctly encode and decode the DOS timestamps for entries within an archive (that is the non-extended timestamp).
    • Fix DOS timestamps to be set to localtime instead of UTC (use extended timestamps for UTC timestamps).
    • Use the unix file attributes read from disk when creating archives instead of setting everything to 644.

POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITIES

  • Progress reports for a dynamically started supervisor will now be logged at debug level.

OTP-27.1

Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions

  • The description of the pre-defined macros has been clarified. In particular, it is now made clear that the release returned by ?OTP_RELEASE is the release under which the compiler is run.

    Own Id: OTP-19103
    Related Id(s): GH-8486, PR-8518

  • ex_doc now runs using an explicit escript instance instead of /usr/bin/env so that package tools such as nix can build the documentation.

    Own Id: OTP-19145
    Related Id(s): GH-8378, PR-8596

  • The otp_patch_apply script, used for patching OTP applications, has been fixed. It was not possible (and still is not possible) to apply applications from the OTP 27.0.1 patch package onto an OTP 27.0 installation.

    Own Id: OTP-19182

  • ./otp_build download_ex_doc was using sha1sum and sha256sum which work on various Unix systems. macOS does not have these applications installed by default, so we added a new dependency to the build process, shasum, which is installed by default on macOS and allows us to check the integrity of ex_doc.

  • On documentation web pages using Mermaid JS scripts for figures, the scripts are now loaded asynchronously so that the rest of pages can be shown while the scripts are still downloading.

    Own Id: OTP-19143

  • Deprecation of RSA encryption functions has been reverted, as there still exists legitimate use cases with other padding modes than PKCS-1.

    While use PCKS-1 padding with some versions of cryptolib could be considered secure, we still recommend using other algorithms that are less sensitive to oracle attacks.

  • A boolean option read_ahead has been implemented for gen_tcp, default true, to facilitate not reading past (caching data) the end of a packet. In particular, for kTLS, caching data could read in data that was supposed to be decrypted by the platform's network stack, before crypto parameters could be activated.

    Related Id(s): PR-8703

Improvements and New Features

  • Deprecation of RSA encryption functions has been reverted, as there still exists legitimate use cases with other padding modes than PKCS-1.

    While use PCKS-1 padding with some versions of cryptolib could be considered secure, we still recommend using other algorithms that are less sensitive to oracle attacks.

  • It is now possible to use a verification fun of arity 4, giving the user fun access to both encoded and decoded versions of the certificate. This is desirable as a workaround for encoding errors preventing re-encoding from being reliable. This also saves some work load if the encoded version is needed.

    Note that calling public_key:pkix_path_validation/3 with only decoded certs is not recommended, due to the decoding workarounds, although it will work as long as the workarounds are not needed.

    If the decoded version is needed before thecall to public_key it is recommend to use the combined_cert- type to avoid double decoding. Note that the path validation algorithm itself always needs both the encoded and decoded versions of the certs.

    The ssl implementation will now benefit from using this function instead of emulating the verify_fun/4.

  • Multiple issues have been corrected in the markdown parser that creates documentation for the shell.

    The parser was incorrectly parsing formatted markdown (either bold or italics) within parenthesis. This used to not be shown correctly in the shell documentation (_Option._), which was displayed verbatim. This fix makes Option. to appear in italics.

    The markdown parser is also used in the creation of other documentation formats, so this was a bug that affected other generated documentation formats.

    *** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***

  • The zip module has been updated with support for:

    • zip64 archives - Archives larger than 4GB or with more than 2^32 entries.
    • extended timestamps - Higher resolution and in UTC.
    • UID/GID - Save and extract the original UID/GID.
    • Fixes so that permission mode attributes are correctly read and set for files in archives.
    • zip:list_dir/2 now also returns directories, not only files. (You can disable this behaviour by using the option skip_directories).

    Various bugs in the original implementation have also been fixed, such as:

    • Correctly encode and decode the DOS timestamps for entries within an archive (that is the non-extended timestamp).
    • Fix DOS timestamps to be set to localtime instead of UTC (use extended timestamps for UTC timestamps).
    • Use the unix file attributes read from disk when creating archives instead of setting everything to 644.
