The following bugs were fixed in this release:
- ScyllaDB may terminate if internal query to Authentication table does not reach the required consistency level with a non-default authentication setting (for example when a node is down) #1718
- ScyllaDB may not start on large machine (with many cores) when a column family has many sstables #1812
- ScyllaDB logs an uninformative error message for no permissions to /var/lib/scylla/ #883
- CQL: ScyllaDB returns an uninformative error is if keyspace replication strategy class is not found #1755
- CQL: Using SELECT DISTINCT queries with paging can return duplicate results #1822
- Thrift: When using SliceRange, a limit on the number of cells to return from a row was not honored #1882 (regression from ScyllaDB 1.3)
- Nodetool: snapshot operation may not release all of its memory back to ScyllaDB, eventually causing an out of memory and exit #1831
- Nodetool: nodetool info returns a negative cache capacity value #1801
- Nodetool: when the ‘nodetool compact’ command is issued, in some circumstances, sstable file descriptors may stay open after deletion (by compaction), causing disk space to run out #1840
- JMX: metrics (MBeans) for StorageProxy Read and Write does not return a value #1821
- Histogram and moving average metrics return wrong values which propagate to REST, JMX API for example org.apache.cassandra.metrics.Write.Latency #1832 , #1836,#1837
- Cache: hits during range queries do not update LRU list #1847
- Missing SSTable summary file can cause issues from range quires failure to crashes #1857
