TiDB 7.5.4 Release Notes

Release date: October 15, 2024

TiDB version: 7.5.4

Quick access: Quick start | Production deployment

Compatibility changes

  • Set a default limit of 2048 for DDL historical tasks retrieved through the TiDB HTTP API to prevent OOM issues caused by excessive historical tasks #55711 @joccau

Improvements

  • TiDB

    • Support applying the tidb_redact_log setting to the output of EXPLAIN statements and further optimize the logic in processing logs #54565 @hawkingrei
    • Optimize the query speed of TiDB slow queries #54630 @yibin87

  • TiKV

    • Optimize the trigger mechanism of RocksDB compaction to accelerate disk space reclamation when handling a large number of DELETE versions #17269 @AndreMouche
    • Reduce the memory usage of the peer message channel #16229 @Connor1996
    • Optimize the jittery access delay when restarting TiKV due to waiting for the log to be applied, improving the stability of TiKV #15874 @LykxSassinator
    • Optimize TiKV's DiskFull detection to make it compatible with RaftEngine's spill-dir configuration, ensuring that this feature works consistently #17356 @LykxSassinator

  • TiFlash

    • Optimize the execution efficiency of LENGTH() and ASCII() functions #9344 @xzhangxian1008
    • Mitigate the issue that TiFlash might panic due to updating certificates after TLS is enabled #8535 @windtalker
    • Improve the cancel mechanism of the JOIN operator, so that the JOIN operator can respond to cancel requests in a timely manner #9430 @windtalker

  • Tools

    • Backup & Restore (BR)

      • Support checking whether the disk space in TiKV is sufficient before TiKV downloads each SST file. If the space is insufficient, BR terminates the restore and returns an error #17224 @RidRisR

    • TiCDC

      • When the downstream is TiDB with the SUPER permission granted, TiCDC supports querying the execution status of ADD INDEX DDL from the downstream database to avoid data replication failure due to timeout in retrying executing the DDL statement in some cases #10682 @CharlesCheung96
