The configuration guide now links to the runtime configuration in the TOC
instead of the deprecated legacy configuration reloading. The new section
lists the currently supported methods for altering the configuration at
runtime.
Updated links, removed redundant chapters about cluster types and replaced
them with a link to the main tutorial, added maxctrl to the administration section.
It is now possible to prevent the masking filter from rejecting
statements using functions in conjunction with fields to be
masked. So now it is possible to not use the blanket rejection
of the masking filter and replace it with more detailed firewall
rules.
Also change the following defaults:
- "selects": Was "verify_cacheable", is now "assume_cacheable"
- "cached_data": Was "shared", is now "thread_specific"
The user now requires SELECT privileges on the mysql.roles_mapping
table.
Currently this is a mandatory grant but it needs to be made into an
optional requirement. This allows upgrades from 2.2.9 to 2.2.10 without
needing new grants.
The code in avrorouter that returned the current transaction was not very
useful and it can be acquired via the REST API in a more convenient
format.
The number of created sessions is tracked on the service level so there is
no need to track it in the avrorouter.
Removed declarations for functions that do not exist and moved code around
to reduce the scope.
It will not officially be released, but we must import the
documentation nonetheless as otherwise it's not possible to
refer to the 2.2.8 release notes and that's needed because the
bugs fixed in 2.2.8 are still fixed in 2.2.8 and not 2.2.9.
