     * Deprecation and Removal Notes

     * Bugs Fixed

Deprecation and Removal Notes

    

     * NDB Cluster APIs: Support for Node.js has been removed in
       this release.
       Node.js continues to be supported in NDB Cluster 8.0
       only. (Bug #31781948)

     * NDB Client Programs: Effective with this release, the MySQL NDB
       Cluster Auto-Installer (ndb_setup.py) has been deprecated and is
       subject to removal in a future version of NDB Cluster. (Bug
       #31888835)

     * ndbmemcache: ndbmemcache is deprecated in this release of NDB
       Cluster, and is scheduled for removal in the next release. (Bug
       #31876970)

Bugs Fixed


     * Packaging: The Dojo library included with NDB Cluster has been
       upgraded to version 1.15.4. (Bug #31559518)

     * NDB Cluster APIs: It was possible to make invalid sequences of
       NDB API method calls using blobs. This was because some method
       calls implicitly cause transaction execution inline, to deal with
       blob parts and other issues, which could cause user-defined
       operations not to be handled correctly due to the use of a method
       executing operations relating to blobs while there still
       user-defined blob operations pending. Now in such cases, NDB
       raises a new error 4558 Pending blob operations must be executed
       before this call. (Bug #27772916)

     * After encountering the data node in the configuration file which
       used NodeGroup=65536
       ( https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/mysql-cluster-ndbd-definition.html#ndbparam-ndbd-nodegroup ),
       the management server stopped assigning data nodes lacking an
       explicit NodeGroup setting to node groups. (Bug #31825181)

     * In some cases, QMGR
       ( https://dev.mysql.com/doc/ndb-internals/en/ndb-internals-kernel-blocks-qmgr.html)
       returned conflicting NDB
       ( https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/mysql-cluster.html )
       engine and MySQL server version information, which could lead to
       unplanned management node shutdown. (Bug #31471959)

     * During different phases of the restore process, ndb_restore used
       different numbers of retries for temporary errors as well as
       different sleep times between retries. This is fixed by
       implementing consistent retry counts and sleep times across all
       restore phases. (Bug #31372923)

     * Backups errored out with FsErrInvalidParameters when the
       filesystem was running with O_DIRECT and a data file write was
       not aligned with the 512-byte block size used by O_DIRECT writes.
       If the total fragment size in the data file is not aligned with
       the O_DIRECT block size, NDB pads the last write to the required
       size, but when there were no fragments to write, BACKUP
       ( https://dev.mysql.com/doc/ndb-internals/en/ndb-internals-kernel-blocks-backup.html )
       wrote only the header and footer to the data file. Since the header
       and footer are less than 512 bytes, leading to the issue with the O_DIRECT write. 
       This is fixed by padding out the generic footer to 512 bytes if
       necessary, using an EMPTY_ENTRY, when closing the data file. (Bug #31180508)
