Good morning. This is your AtomVM weekly recap for June 8th through 15th, 2026.
4 pull request activity items, 0 additional commits this week.
This week's development centered on fixing fundamental stability issues across AtomVM's core systems. The work reveals a systematic effort to address resource management problems and concurrency bugs that could affect production deployments.
Network reliability dominated the week's changes. Pull request 2332 tackled multiple socket-related problems on ESP32 platforms, fixing memory leaks in TCP connection handling and resolving issues with concurrent accept operations. The fix also addressed a race condition between socket cleanup and event handling…
Concurrency improvements formed the second major theme. Pull request 2331 resolved spinlock starvation problems when schedulers run in serialized mode. This change particularly benefits continuous integration environments and debugging scenarios with tools like Valgrind, indicating the team is prioritizing both…
System initialization received critical attention with pull request 2334 fixing redundant kernel start calls that were causing crashes. The problem affected both ESP32 initialization and…
