Auto-create: Auto partitioning is unsafe for row-based replication

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      This is a sibling of MDEV-25477. The difference is that MDEV-25477 concerns any replication format, but only transactional engines, while this one concerns any engines, but only RBR format, which means binlog_format=row or binlog_format=mixed when replication automatically switched to RBR, which can happen on a variety of reasons.

      Partitioning auto-creation cannot be safely used in a replication topology if there is a chance that the binary log will be written in a row format.

      The reason is that when DML ends without affecting any rows, a new partition still can be created, but no row events will be written in the binary log. Thus, the master will have the new partition, but the slave will not. This discrepancy will almost inevitably cause a replication abort some time later.
