[Maria-discuss] explain for insert/update/delete
by MARK CALLAGHAN 08 Jul '25

08 Jul '25

Does MariaDB have any plans to support explain for insert/update/delete/replace/CTAS? There have been feature requests open for a very long time on official MySQL without any progress. I have had a few problems in production from 'bad' delete statements that had a very different plan than the select statement with the same where clause. The only way to check for a bad plan today is to use SHOW INNODB STATUS to determine whether the statement locks all rows in a table. http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=14745 http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=35355 -- Mark Callaghan mdcallag(a)gmail.com

[Maria-discuss] why stdout? -> [Note] /usr/libexec/mysqld (mysqld 10.0.20-MariaDB) starting as process 115096

Aug 6 12:24:24 testserver mysqld: 150806 12:24:24 [Note] /usr/libexec/mysqld (mysqld 10.0.20-MariaDB) starting as process 115096 ... why is this now stdout instead mysql logs? on systemd based distributions that spits now to the global syslog and finally on machines restarting 2 instances every hour for backup reasons it annoys until 10.0.19 or 10.0.20 that was not this way

[Maria-discuss] Virtual CHECK constraint using Virtual columns
by Peter Laursen 16 Oct '16

16 Oct '16

As described in this Blog http://mablomy.blogspot.dk/2016/04/check-constraint-for-mysql-not-null-on.h…. A very nice hack/trick IMO. However it is not working with MariaDB as VC's cannot be declared NOT NULL. What prevents that? -- Peter -- Webyog

[Maria-discuss] New Question: Swap usage won't decrease
by AskMonty KB 28 Jun '16

Hello, A new question has been asked in "MariaDB FAQ" by alexandraarreaza. Please answer it at http://mariadb.com/kb/en/swap-usage-wont-decrease/ as the person asking the question may not be subscribed to the mailing list. -------------------------------- We have a 5 DB nodes Galera Cluster in Production (MariaDB 10.0). About a week ago a DB import was performed over an existing DB (Its size ~30G) and during this process, all DB nodes started complaining about swap usage and haven't stopped complaining since then (e.g: One of them would be using 814 MB out of 4095 MB). I have read a good few articles about MySQL and swapping issues (this is a good one: https://blog.jcole.us/2010/09/28/mysql-swap-insanity-and-the-numa-architect…) and also about swapping in MariaDB (https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/configuring-swappiness/) but still can't find out a way of solving this problem without restarting MySQL. We have NUMA architecture with 2 nodes and 96G of RAM. Our buffer pool size is 70G and it is set to use 12 innodb_buffer_pool_instances. 1) Is there any fix to this situation besides restarting MySQL? 2) Is there a way of tuning our cluster to avoid swapping in the future? Thanks. -------------------------------- To view or answer this question please visit: http://mariadb.com/kb/en/swap-usage-wont-decrease/
