Details

    Description

      MariaDB 10.5 introduced yet another way to monitor metadata lock, via performance_schema.metadata_locks table. MySQL manual (https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/performance-schema-metadata-locks-table.html) can be used to find out what is presented there, but unfortunately there are different/new metadata lock types introduced in MariaDB and one may get the output like this:

      MariaDB [performance_schema]> select * from metadata_locks limit 5\G

             OWNER_EVENT_ID: 1
      5 rows in set (0,001 sec)
      

      that includes BACKUP_TRANS_DML, BACKUP_START, BACKUP_FTWRL1 etc types of locks with OBJECT_TYPE =- BACKUP that upstream documentation does not cover in any way.

      This is a request to properly document the content of this new P_S table, including all object types and all types of metadata locks with compatibility matrix for them if possible.
