Percona is glad to announce the release of Percona XtraDB Cluster 5.5.34-23.7.6 on November 4, 2013. Binaries are available from the downloads area or from our software repositories.

Bugs Fixed:

  • Fixed the issues with upgrade on Debian caused by debian-start script. Bug fixed #1112363.
  • Adding the AUTO_INCREMENT column to a table would result in data inconsistency because different nodes use different auto_increment_offset. Bug fixed #587170.
  • LOAD DATA INFILE was not replicating properly in cluster. Bug fixed #1206129.
  • After a COMMIT processing was interrupted (e.g. certification failure) it didn’t always release transactional MDL locks, which could lead to server deadlock while performing DDL. Bug fixed #1212955.
  • pc.checksum option was enabled by default, although its purpose was just to help with debugging. Bug fixed #1229107.
  • Server startup isn’t interrupted if the /var/lock/subsys/mysql file was not cleaned up by the init script. Bug fixed #1231067.
  • State Snapshot Transfer cleanup of existing data directory is now configurable with a cpat parameter. Bug fixed #1231121.
  • Handler command and concurrent DDL could cause node hanging. The problem would happen when a handler session was aborted due to replication conflict. Bug fixed #1233353.
  • Command service mysql status was not producing valid exit codes, which could break the configuration management systems. Bug fixed #1237021.
  • Option wsrep-new-cluster could lead to server crash. Bug fixed #1238331.
  • No key information was provided for DROP VIEW TOI statement. Bug fixed #1240040.
  • innodb_locks_unsafe_for_binlog option is no longer checked because slave threads are READ-COMMITTED by default. Bug fixed #1240112.
  • if IO cache contained the Query_log_event, database pointer would be reset during transaction replay. This could lead to “1046 No database selected.” error when next statement is issued. Bug fixed #1241760.
  • After test shutting down all the nodes indicate that all write set handlers were not released. Bug fixed #1244661.
  • MDL locks were not released properly on slaves at commit time. Bug fixed #1245333.
  • Implemented number of thread pool scheduler fixes. Bug fixed #1240500.
  • Running FLUSH STATUS would zero-up wsrep_cluster_size and wsrep_local_index variables. Bug fixed #1232789.
  • Fixed the dependency conflict between the Percona-XtraDB-Cluster-shared and Percona-Server-shared-compat packages. Bug fixed #1084309.
  • Fixed the memory leak in the wsrep_write_cache() function. Bug fixed #1230160.
  • Xtrabackup SST Configuration implementation added in Percona XtraDB Cluster 5.5.33-23.7.6 has been renamed xtrabackup-v2, so wsrep_sst_method=xtrabackup will use xtrabackup implementation before 5.5.33-23.7.6 and will be compatible with older Percona XtraDB Cluster versions. Bug fixed #1228618.
  • Support for SSL encryption for just the key and crt files as implemented in Galera can be enabled with encrypt=3 option. This has been implemented in 5.5.34-23.7.6 for compatibility with Galera. Bug Fixed #1235244.

Other bugs fixed: bug fixed #1244741, bug fixed #1244667, bug fixed #1243150, bug fixed #1232890, bug fixed #999492, bug fixed #1245769, and bug fixed #1244100.

Based on Percona Server 5.5.34-32.0 including all the bug fixes in it, Galera Replicator and on Codership wsrep API 5.5.34-25.9, Percona XtraDB Cluster 5.5.34-23.7.6 is now the current stable release. Percona XtraDB Cluster 5.5.33-23.7.6 to 5.5.34-23.7.6 upgrade is strongly recommended if SST backward compatibility is a concern. All of Percona’s software is open-source and free.

This is a General Availability release. We did our best to eliminate bugs and problems during the testing release, but this is a software, so bugs are expected. If you encounter them, please report them to our bug tracking system.

Errata and the release notes for Percona XtraDB Cluster 5.5.34-23.7.6 are available in our online documentation.
