Release highlights

Improvements and bug fixes provided by Oracle for MySQL 8.0.37 and included in Percona Server for MySQL are the following:

  • The redo log might not record a change in column order when using instant DDL, potentially leading to an inaccurate log replay during the recovery process. (Bug #35183686)

  • Enhanced management of buffers has been implemented in deleting tablespaces to prevent a possible assertion failure. (Bug #35676106, Bug #36343647)

  • Resolved an assertion failure associated with full-text indexes. (Bug #35836581)

Bug fixes

  • PS-7977: Fixed the broken apparmor profile after 8.0.22-13 -> 8.0.23-14 upgrade.

  • PS-8731: Fixed the incorrect path in the /etc/logrotate.d/mysql and /etc/my.cnf configuration files (Thanks to Gena Makhomed for reporting this issue.)

  • PS-8838: Added perconaserverclient.pc to libperconaserverclient21-dev package (Thanks to ひきこもりのメモ for reporting this issue.)

  • PS-9092: There were data inconsistencies during a high rate of page split/merge.

  • PS-9107: Fixed the [InnoDB] Assertion failure: ibuf0ibuf.cc:3833:ib::fatal triggered thread.

  • PS-9117: The server exited after setting the innodb_interpreter_output system variable.

  • PS-9145: Fixed openssl version detection in encryption_udf_digest_table.inc.

  • PS-9151: Percona server 8.0 build failed on CentOS 7 with -DWITH_SSL=openssl11.

  • PS-9155: The server exited during the execution of the complicated query with 9 CTEs.

  • PS-9213: Fixed the typo in condition in mysqld.cc::fix_secure_path().

  • PS-9121: MySQL exited when InnoDB failed to update a spatial index.

  • PS-9219: While converting the charset collation in a table, MySQL converted the date and time data types columns in the .ibd file. However, the collation_id in the .ibd file did not align with that of the data dictionary.

  • PS-9235: Keyring vault failed to work with binlog_rotate_encryption_master_key_at_startup.

Deprecation

  • PS-8963: The SEQUENCE_TABLE() function is deprecated and may be removed in a future release. We recommend that you use PERCONA_SEQUENCE_TABLE() instead. To maintain compatibility with existing third-party software, SEQUENCE_TABLE is no longer a reserved term and can be used as a regular identifier. Find more information in PERCONA_SEQUENCE_TABLE(n) function
