WL#5496: Plugin LOAD_OPTION in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.PLUGINS
Affects: Server-Prototype Only
—
Status: Complete
Add a new information_schema.plugins column to show plugin load options.
There will be a new information_schema.plugins column: LOAD_OPTION VARCHAR(64) NOT NULL The column value is the plugin load option. Possible values: 'ON', 'OFF', 'FORCE', and (if we succeed with WL#5341 "Sticky plugins"), 'FORCE_PLUS_PERMANENT'. For example, mysqld --audit_log=ON causes LOAD_OPTION to contain 'ON'. MySQL will treat automatically-loaded plugin as 'ON', and will convert syntax with equivalent meaning to one of the allowed values. For example, mysqld --disable-audit-log /* causes LOAD_OPTION to contain 'OFF' */ mysqld --audit_log=Force /* causes LOAD_OPTION to contain 'FORCE' */ If a plugin is deactivated due to an error or due to UNINSTALL, LOAD_OPTION value is unaffected.
