apache/kvrocks v2.17.0

2.17.0

on GitHub

Highlights: This release adds JSON output for INFO, the TDIGEST.CDF command, and configurable client output-buffer limits. It also improves Stream trimming and HNSW random-number generation, fixes replication and command compatibility issues, and strengthens command permissions, Lua reply handling, and RDB loading.

Dependencies were refreshed, including RocksDB v11.8.1, jsoncons v1.9.0, libevent 2.1.13-stable, fmt v12.2.0, and GoogleTest v1.18.0.

Hash Field Expiration (HFE) commands and configuration remain disabled in 2.17.0, while the internal data structures and metadata are retained. Keyspace Notifications and CuckooFilter are also excluded from this release and should not be treated as available functionality.

Compatibility Notes

• DEBUG, FLUSHMEMTABLE, FLUSHBLOCKCACHE, and _db_name now require admin permission. Clients authenticated with namespace tokens can no longer run these commands. See #3570.
• Non-admin CLIENT LIST, CLIENT INFO, and CLIENT KILL operations are restricted to the caller's namespace. See #3536.
• Cluster slot migration now uses only raw-key-value. The redis-command migration path and fallback have been removed; the destination must support APPLYBATCH. The migrate-type, migrate-speed, and migrate-pipeline-size settings are deprecated. Use migrate-batch-rate-limit-mb and migrate-batch-size-kb to control migration throughput and batch size. See #3544.
• client-output-buffer-limit is disabled by default and applies to the normal and pubsub client classes. The slave class is accepted for compatibility but has no effect on replication connections. See #3560.
