Percona Server 5.7.10-3 GA is now available

Percona is glad to announce the first GA release of Percona Server 5.7.10-3 on February 23, 2016. Download the latest version from the Percona web site or from the Percona Software Repositories.

Based on MySQL 5.7.10, including all the bug fixes in it, Percona Server 5.7.10-3 is the current GA release in the Percona Server 5.7 series. All of Percona’s software is open-source and free, all the details of the release can be found in the 5.7.10-3 milestone at Launchpad.

New Features:

• Complete list of changes between Percona Server 5.6 and 5.7 can be seen in Changed in Percona Server 5.7.
• Percona Server has implemented Multi-threaded asynchronous LRU flusher. This work also allows to safely use backoff value for the innodb_empty_free_list_algorithm server system variable, and its default has been changed accordingly.

Known Issues:

• In Percona Server 5.7 super_read_only feature has been replaced with the upstream implementation. There are currently two known issues compared to Percona Server 5.6 implementation:
  • Bug #78963, super_read_only aborts STOP SLAVE if variable relay_log_info_repository is set to TABLE which could lead to a server crash in Debug builds.
  • Bug #79328, super_read_only set as a server option has no effect.
• InnoDB crash recovery might fail if innodb_flush_method is set to ALL_O_DIRECT. The workaround is to set this variable to a different value before starting up the crashed instance (bug #1529885).

Bugs Fixed:

• Percona Server 5.7.10-1 didn’t write the initial root password into the log file /var/log/mysqld.log during the installation on CentOS 6. Bug fixed #1541769.
• Cardinality of partitioned TokuDB tables became inaccurate after the changes introduced by TokuDB Background ANALYZE TABLE feature in Percona Server 5.7.10-1. Bug fixed #925.
• Running the TRUNCATE TABLE while TokuDB Background ANALYZE TABLE is enabled could lead to a server crash once analyze job tries to access the truncated table. Bug fixed #938.
• Percona TokuBackup would fail with an unclear error if backup process found mysqld_safe.pid file (owned by root) inside the datadir. Fixed by excluding the pid file by default. Bug fixed #125.
• PAM Authentication Plugin build warning has been fixed. Bug fixed #1541601.

Release notes for Percona Server 5.7.10-3 are available in the online documentation. Please report any bugs on the launchpad bug tracker .

Wow! Good Job!

BTW, I find a typo in “Changed in Percona Server 5.7″ page：

” List of status variables that are no longer available in Percona Server 5.6 ” should be 5.7
