TiDB 7.5.2 Release Notes

Release date: June 13, 2024

TiDB version: 7.5.2

Quick access: Quick start | Production deployment

Compatibility changes

  • Add a TiKV configuration item track-and-verify-wals-in-manifest for RocksDB, which helps you investigate possible corruption of Write Ahead Log (WAL) #16549 @v01dstar
  • Must set the line terminator when using TiDB Lightning strict-format or SPLIT_FILE to import CSV files #37338 @lance6716
  • Add the sink.open.output-old-value configuration item for TiCDC Open Protocol to control whether to output the value before the update to the downstream #10916 @sdojjy
  • In earlier versions, when processing a transaction containing UPDATE changes, if the primary key or non-null unique index value is modified in an UPDATE event, TiCDC splits this event into DELETE and INSERT events. Starting from v7.5.2, when using the MySQL sink, TiCDC splits an UPDATE event into DELETE and INSERT events if the transaction commitTS for the UPDATE change is less than TiCDC thresholdTS (which is the current timestamp fetched from PD when TiCDC starts replicating the corresponding table to the downstream). This behavior change addresses the issue of downstream data inconsistencies caused by the potentially incorrect order of UPDATE events received by TiCDC, which can lead to an incorrect order of split DELETE and INSERT events. For more information, see documentation. #10918 @lidezhu
