- Performance: Certain queries against tables with spatial indexes were not performed as efficiently following an upgrade from MySQL 5.7 to MySQL 8.0.
- NDB Cluster: NDB defines one SPJ worker per node owning a primary partition of the root table. If this table used read from any replica, DBTC put all SPJ workers in the same DBSPJ instance, which effe
- NDB Cluster: Executing the SHOW command using an ndb_mgm client binary from NDB 8.0.16 or earlier to access a management node running NDB 8.0.17 or later produced the error message Unknown field: is_s
- On EL7 and EL8, CMake configuration was adjusted to look for GCC 9 before GCC 8. Because libmysqlclient ships with MySQL distributions, client applications built against libmysqlclient on those platfo
- The max_length_for_sort_data system variable is now deprecated due to optimizer changes that make it obsolete and of no effect.

- New FPROFILE_GENERATE and FPROFILE_USE CMake options are available for experimenting with profile guided optimization (PGO) with GCC. See the cmake/fprofile.cmake in a MySQL source distribution for information about using them. These options have been tested with GCC 8 and 9, and with Clang.
- Enabling FPROFILE_USE also enables WITH_LTO (link time optimization).
- Innodb_system_rows_read, Innodb_system_rows_inserted, Innodb_system_rows_deleted status variables were added for counting row operations on InnoDB tables that belong to system-created schemas. The new status variables are similar to the existing Innodb_rows_read, Innodb_rows_inserted, Innodb_rows_deleted status variables, which count operations on InnoDB tables that belong to both user-created and system-created schemas.
- The new status variables are useful in replication environments where relay_log_info_repository and master_info_repository variables are set to TABLE, resulting in higher row operation counts on slaves due to operations performed on the slave_master_info, slave_replay_log_info, and slave_worker_info tables, which belong to the system-created mysql schema. For a valid comparison of master and slave row operation counts, operations on tables in system-created schemas can now be excluded using the count data provided by the new status variables.

switch patch-files to mysql80-server to make it easy for maintain.
Bugfix:
- CMake now enables use of fastcov if it is available. fastcov is faster than lcov or gcov. This requires GCC and gcov versions of 9 or higher.
- The DISABLE_SHARED CMake option was unused and has been removed.
- The CMake code to find Protobuf executables now works on platforms that split these into multiple packages.
- The new ADD_GDB_INDEX CMake option determines whether to enable generation of a .gdb_index section in binaries, which makes loading them in a debugger faster. The option is disabled by default. It has no effect if a linker other than lld or GNU gold is used.
- For the INSTALL_LAYOUT CMake option, the SLES and WIN option values were not used and have been removed.
- The max_prepared_stmt_count system variable maximum value has been increased from 1 million (1,048,576) to 4 million (4,194,304). The default value remains unchanged at 16,382.
- MySQL 8.0 no longer supports building using wolfSSL. All MySQL builds now use OpenSSL.
- The RE2 library is no longer used by MySQL. The library is no longer bundled with source distributions and the WITH_RE2 CMake option is obsolete.
