TiDB

    • Fix the wrong SQL binding plan caused by untimely cache updates #13891
    • Fix the issue that the SQL binding might be invalid when an SQL statement contains a symbol list #14004

    • Fix issues that the INSERT/REPLACE/UPDATE ... SET ... = DEFAULT syntax might report an error and combining the usage of the DEFAULT expression with a virtual generated column might report an error #13682

    • Fix the issue that sometimes the aggregate operation is low effective because the concurrency value of the HashAgg executor is incorrectly initialized #13811

    • Fix the issue that the error message does not contain the cause for the LOAD DATA statement's wrong behavior when LoadDataInfo fails to call addRecord #13980

    • Fix the issue that the memory might leak when batchClient processes a large transaction #14032
