TiDB 4.0.9 Release Notes

TiDB 4.0.9 Release Notes

Release date: December 21, 2020

TiDB version: 4.0.9

Compatibility Changes

  • TiDB

    • Deprecate the enable-streaming configuration item #21055

  • TiKV

    • Reduce I/O and mutex contention when encryption at rest is enabled. The change is backwardly incompatible. If users need to downgrade the cluster to a version earlier than v4.0.9, security.encryption.enable-file-dictionary-log must be disabled and TiKV must be restarted before the downgrade. #9195

    • Support displaying the disk usage information in the SQL Statements and Slow Queries pages #777
    • Support exporting list data in the SQL Statements and Slow Queries pages #778
    • Support customizing the Prometheus address #808
