+* The new [slave\_max\_statement\_time system variable](https://app.gitbook.com/s/SsmexDFPv2xG2OTyO5yV/ha-and-performance/standard-replication/replication-and-binary-log-system-variables) is available to set the maximum execution time for queries on replica nodes. ([MENT-1566](https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MENT-1566), [MDEV-27161](https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-27161))
+  * When a query takes more than `slave_max_statement_time` seconds to run on the replica (slave) node, the query is aborted, and replication stops with an error.
+  * The system variable can be set to a decimal value, where the decimal component has microsecond precision.
+  * When set to `0`, there is no timeout.
+  * The default value is `0`.
+* To simplify maintenance, the [ALTER TABLE](https://app.gitbook.com/s/SsmexDFPv2xG2OTyO5yV/reference/sql-statements/data-definition/alter/alter-table) statement supports new clauses to convert tables to partitions and partitions to tables. ([MENT-1454](https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MENT-1454))
+  * To convert a partition to a table, use the `CONVERT PARTITION .. TO TABLE ..` clause:
+
+```sql
+ALTER TABLE partitioned_table
+ CONVERT PARTITION part1
+ TO TABLE normal_table;
+```
+
+* To convert a table to a partition, use the `CONVERT TABLE .. TO PARTITION ..` clause:
+
+```sql
+ALTER TABLE partitioned_table
+ CONVERT TABLE normal_table
+ TO PARTITION part1 VALUES LESS THAN (12345);
+```
+
+* The new `CONVERT PARTITION` and `CONVERT TABLE` clauses are crash-safe operations.
+* The `EXCHANGE PARTITION` clause can still be used, but it is not a crash-safe operation.

+* In previous releases, the number of undo logs was configurable before InnoDB was initialized. With this release, the number of undo logs can also be configured after install.
+  * The number of undo logs is configured by the InnoDB system variable `--innodb-undo-tablespaces`.
+  * Splitting undo logs over multiple tablespaces can reduce the size of a single tablespace, especially the InnoDB system tablespace.
+  * In previous releases, the number of undo logs had to be configured before InnoDB was initialized, so changing the number of undo logs would require setting up a new server instance. With this backport from MariaDB Community Server 10.11, the number of undo logs can be changed so it will take effect with the next server start. (MENT-1650)

+    * `server_audit_sync_log_file` - flushes the buffer to the log file. While the log record is in the buffer, it cannot be seen in the log file. And if there are not many events to log, the time before records can be observed can be significant. So user can do `SET GLOBAL server_audit_log_file=1` to this variable to force write the buffer to the file, to make sure he doesn't miss the recent records.
