RRelease date: Jan 10, 2024

New Features

  • Users can set or modify session variables when they CREATE or ALTER asynchronous materialized views. #37401

Improvements

  • When using JDK, the default GC algorithm is G1. #37498
  • The result returned by the SHOW ROUTINE LOAD statement now includes the timestamps of consumption messages from each partition. #36222

Behavior Change

  • Added the session variable enable_materialized_view_for_insert, which controls whether materialized views rewrite the queries in INSERT INTO SELECT statements. The default value is false. #37505
  • Added the session variable enable_strict_order_by. When this variable is set to the default value TRUE, an error is reported for such a query pattern: Duplicate alias is used in different expressions of the query and this alias is also a sorting field in ORDER BY, for example, select distinct t1.* from tbl1 t1 order by t1.k1;. The logic is the same as that in v2.3 and earlier. When this variable is set to FALSE, a loose deduplication mechanism is used, which processes such queries as valid SQL queries. #37910

Parameter Change

  • Added session variables transaction_read_only and tx_read_only to specify the transaction access mode, which are compatible with MySQL versions 5.7.20 and above. #37249
  • Added the FE configuration item routine_load_unstable_threshold_second. #36222
  • Added the FE configuration item http_worker_threads_num, which specifies the number of threads for HTTP server to deal with HTTP requests. The default value is 0. If the value for this parameter is set to a negative value or 0, the actual thread number is twice the number of CPU cores. #37530
  • Added the BE configuration item pindex_major_compaction_limit_per_disk to configure the maximum concurrency of compaction on a disk. This addresses the issue of uneven I/O across disks due to compaction. This issue can cause excessively high I/O for certain disks. The default value is 1. #37695

Bug Fixes

Fixed the following issues:

  • Using NaN (Not a Number) columns as ORDER BY columns may cause BEs to crash. #30759
  • Failure to update primary key indexes may cause the error "get_applied_rowsets failed". #27488
  • Hive metadata in Hive catalogs is not automatically refreshed when new fields are added to Hive tables. #37668
  • When SELECT ... FROM ... INTO OUTFILE is executed to export data into CSV files, the error "Unmatched number of columns" is reported if the FROM clause contains multiple constants. #38045
  • In some cases, bitmap_to_string may return incorrect result due to data type overflow. #37405
