Issue fixed in this release:
- Alternator: some sstables with large sizes left after TTL expiration, gc-grace-period and major compaction (tombstones are not deleted). The root cause is sstable waiting for off-strategy compaction, not participating in the major compaction #11915.
- Alternator: a bug in Alternator GSI updates of range key when using two new key columns in GSI #17119
- Stability: Materialized View (MV) flow control doesn’t account small view updates properly, and can lead to OOM #17364
- Stability: Materialized View (MV): memory used by a view updates batch is incorrectly divided #17854
- Stability: nodetool removenode hangs in repair, waiting on streaming semaphore #17591
- Stability: reader_permit::get_schema() is unsafe against table schema alter or drop #16180
- Stability: wrong range used for partition estimation for mixed-shard repair, when different nodes have different shared counts, resulting in larger than needed filters #17863.
- Stability: Sporadic repair failure when adding a node #16821
- Stability: a very rare use-after-free in sstables::key_view::explode() can be caused by a large enough partition key #17625
- Scylla AMI for EC2: Cannot get EC2 user data after enabled IMDSv2 scylla-machine-image#498
