Description: With mysql_options4() connection attributes can be set who will be sent to the server. Please make it possible to modify connection attributes for a running connection. Some examples: 1. Webapp with persistent connections who wants to sent a 'proxy-for' attribute to indicate the username of the client which talks to the webapp. 2. Cronjob which want to report the stage it is in How to repeat: See description Suggested fix: From SQL: UPDATE performance_schema.session_connect_attrs SET ATTR_VALUE='testapp' WHERE PROCESSLIST_ID=CONNECTION_ID() AND ATTR_NAME='program_name'; From API: mysql_update_connattr('program_name','testapp');
