Issue fixed in this release:

• Stability: Flat mutation reader functions such as upgrade_to_v2 are not exception safe and can cause crashes #9065
• UX: Failure to apply a failed batchlog is silent #10636
• Alternator: DescribeTable calls should include ProvisionedThroughput #11222
• Stability: sstables crawling reader can emit duplicated partition end. This issue affects scylla’s scrub compaction (in all modes) as well as the validate operation of the scylla-sstable tool. #11421
• Stability: Messaging service misconfigured tcp_nodelay for verbs. The result is gossiper messages are coming with increased latency. This may affect the nodes status visibility of each other and, which is worse, there’s an increased chance of one node marking the alive peer as dead #11465
• Stability: 2 Nodes failed after bloom_filter_fp_chance was modified to an unreasonable low number #11524
