Release Date: July 30, 2021

TiDB version: 5.1.1

Compatibility changes

  • TiDB

    • For TiDB clusters upgrade from v4.0 to v5.1, the default value of tidb_multi_statement_mode is OFF. It is recommended to use the multi-statement feature of your client library instead. See the documentation on tidb_multi_statement_mode for details. #25751
    • Change the default value of the tidb_stmt_summary_max_stmt_count variable from 200 to 3000 #25874
    • Require the SUPER privilege to access the table_storage_stats table #26352
    • Require the SELECT privilege on mysql.user to access the information_schema.user_privileges table to show other user's privileges #26311
    • Require the CONFIG privilege to access the information_schema.cluster_hardware table #26297
    • Require the PROCESS privilege to access the information_schema.cluster_info table #26297
    • Require the PROCESS privilege to access the information_schema.cluster_load table #26297
    • Require the PROCESS privilege to access the information_schema.cluster_systeminfo table #26297

    • Support retrying MPP queries #26480
    • Change the LOCK record into the PUT record for the index keys using point get or batch point get for UPDATE reads #26225
