MySQL compatibility

  • By design, KILL is not compatible with MySQL by default. This helps prevent against a case of a connection being terminated on the wrong TiDB server, because it is common to place multiple TiDB servers behind a load balancer.
  • DO NOT set compatible-kill-query = true in your configuration file UNLESS you are certain that clients will be always connected to the same TiDB node. This is because pressing ctrl+c in the default MySQL client opens a new connection in which KILL is executed. If there are proxies in between, the new connection might be routed to a different TiDB node, which possibly kills a different session.
  • The KILL TIDB statement is a TiDB extension. The feature of this statement is similar to the MySQL KILL [CONNECTION|QUERY] command and the MySQL command-line ctrl+c feature. It is safe to use KILL TIDB on the same TiDB node.
