25.12.10 Performance Schema User-Defined Variable Tables

The Performance Schema provides a user_variables_by_thread table that exposes user-defined variables. These are variables defined within a specific session and include a @ character preceding the name; see Section 9.4, “User-Defined Variables”.

The user_variables_by_thread table contains these columns:

  • THREAD_ID

    The thread identifier of the session in which the variable is defined.

  • VARIABLE_NAME

    The variable name, without the leading @ character.

  • VARIABLE_VALUE

    The variable value.

TRUNCATE TABLE is not permitted for the user_variables_by_thread table.
