Release highlights

Percona XtraDB Cluster is based on Percona Server for MySQL. Find a complete list of improvements and bug fixes in the Percona Server for MySQL 8.0.40-31 (2024-12-30) release notes.

Improvements and bug fixes provided by Oracle for MySQL 8.0.40 and included in Percona Server for MySQL are the following:

  • Changes in MySQL 8.0.33 caused queries using joins on InnoDB tables to perform worse because refactoring affected functions that were previously inline.

  • An unexpected exit ocurred if the server tried to update columns altered with NULL as the default value using the INSTANT algorithm.

  • An unexpected exit during DELETE or UPDATE operations if a column, using the INSTANT algorithm, was dropped.

  • Importing a table created under a different sql_mode sometimes led to schema mismatches, risking data corruption in secondary indexes. The fix now includes integrity checks on the imported tablespace.

  • Rebuilding tables with secondary indexes required more file I/O operations compared to MySQL 8.0.26, which slowed down query performance.

Bug fixes

PXC-4558: During the post-processing step in wsrep_sst_common, the script connected to mysql-server to check replication status through the upgrade_socket. Since mysql-server was started with --skip-networking, mysql could only connect to mysql-server with socket. When the host was set to 127.0.0.1 in .mylogin.cnf, the post-processing step failed.
