Affects: Server-8.0
—
Status: Complete
Add a new connection attribute for "mysql" client which adds information about the OS account mysql is executing as. This lets DBAs easier to notify people about who is running time taking queries on the server. This is a contribution from Daniƫl van Eeden, see BUG#93916
FR1: the mysql command line will add 2 extra connection attributes: FR1.1: os_user: the current operating system user name running the mysql command line FR1.2: os_sudouser: the contents of the environment variable SUDO_USER FR2: os_user will be added on both unix and windows NF2.1: os_sudouser will not be added for windows NF3: Any other clients (libmysql based or not) will not be affected NF4: if for some reason the os_user or os_sudouser are calculated as empty the corresponding connection attribute will not be added.
