Hi, Gordan, Could you please report it on jira.mariadb.org? On Nov 17, Gordan Bobic via discuss wrote:
I've been doing some testing with various versions of MySQL and MariaDB regarding slow log rotation. And it looks like MariaDB (tested 10.4, 10.5, 10.6 so far) suffers from a bug.
Setup: sloq_query_log=1 long_query_time=0
# sysbench oltp_read_write --threads=$(nproc)
Action: mv slow.log slow.log.1
MariaDB [(none)]> flush slow logs;
^^ This never returns (never as in I haven't tried waiting for > 10 minutes).
On MySQL 5.5 this is instantaneous. On 5.6 - 8.0 it takes a few seconds, worst case I measured over the weekend is 77s, which is pretty terrible, but with MariaDB 10.3 - 10.6 it never seems to complete at all.
If I kill sysbench, it completes immediately.
On 10.3 it works, in line with MySQL 5.6 - 8.0.
This seems like a rather significant bug.
