Expand description

Information schema tables. These tables are an interface provided by the system to inspect the system metadata. These tables do not honor:

  • LOCK TABLE t FOR READ/WRITE
  • FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK
  • SET GLOBAL READ_ONLY = ON as there is no point in locking explicitly an INFORMATION_SCHEMA table. Nothing is directly written to information schema tables. Note that this value is not used currently, since information schema tables are not shared, but implemented as session specific temporary tables.
