+The following options may be given as the first argument:
+--print-defaults Print the program argument list and exit
+--no-defaults Don't read default options from any options file
+--defaults-file=# Only read default options from the given file #
+--defaults-extra-file=# Read this file after the global files are read
+

+ Option used by mysql-test for debugging and testing of
+ replication.

+ without corresponding xxx_init() or xxx_deinit(). That

+ replicate-do-db.
+ --replicate-ignore-db=name
+ Tells the slave thread to not replicate to the specified
+ database. To specify more than one database to ignore,
+ use the directive multiple times, once for each database.

+ --replicate-wild-do-table=name
+ Tells the slave thread to restrict replication to the
+ tables that match the specified wildcard pattern. To
+ specify more than one table, use the directive multiple
+ times, once for each table. This will work for
+ cross-database updates. Example:
+ replicate-wild-do-table=foo%.bar% will replicate only
+ updates to tables in all databases that start with foo
+ and whose table names start with bar.
+ --replicate-wild-ignore-table=name
+ Tells the slave thread to not replicate to the tables
+ that match the given wildcard pattern. To specify more
+ than one table to ignore, use the directive multiple
+ times, once for each table. This will work for
+ cross-database updates. Example:
+ replicate-wild-ignore-table=foo%.bar% will not do updates
+ to tables in databases that start with foo and whose
+ table names start with bar.
+ --report-host=name Hostname or IP of the slave to be reported to the master
+ during slave registration. Will appear in the output of
+ SHOW SLAVE HOSTS. Leave unset if you do not want the
+ slave to register itself with the master. Note that it is
+ not sufficient for the master to simply read the IP of
+ the slave off the socket once the slave connects. Due to
+ NAT and other routing issues, that IP may not be valid
+ for connecting to the slave from the master or other
+ hosts
+ --report-password=name
+ The account password of the slave to be reported to the
+ master during slave registration
+ --report-port=# Port for connecting to slave reported to the master

+ Use compression on master/slave protocol
+ --slave-exec-mode=name
+ Modes for how replication events should be executed.
+ Legal values are STRICT (default) and IDEMPOTENT. In
+ IDEMPOTENT mode, replication will not stop for operations
+ that are idempotent. In STRICT mode, replication will
+ stop on any unexpected difference between the master and
+ the slave
+ --slave-load-tmpdir=name
+ The location where the slave should put its temporary
+ files when replicating a LOAD DATA INFILE command
+ --slave-net-timeout=#
+ Number of seconds to wait for more data from a
+ master/slave connection before aborting the read
+ --slave-skip-errors=name
+ Tells the slave thread to continue replication when a
+ query event returns an error from the provided list
+ --slave-transaction-retries=#
+ Number of times the slave SQL thread will retry a
+ transaction in case it failed with a deadlock or elapsed
+ lock wait timeout, before giving up and stopping
+ --slow-launch-time=#
+ If creating the thread takes longer than this value (in
+ seconds), the Slow_launch_threads counter will be
+ incremented
+ --slow-query-log Log slow queries to a table or log file. Defaults logging
+ to a file hostname-slow.log or a table mysql.slow_log if
+ --log-output=TABLE is used. Must be enabled to activate
+ other slow log options
+ --slow-query-log-file=name
+ Log slow queries to given log file. Defaults logging to
+ hostname-slow.log. Must be enabled to activate other slow
+ log options
+ --socket=name Socket file to use for connection
+ --sort-buffer-size=#
+ Each thread that needs to do a sort allocates a buffer of
+ this size
+ --sporadic-binlog-dump-fail
+ Option used by mysql-test for debugging and testing of
+ replication.
+ --sql-bin-update-same
+ The update log is deprecated since version 5.0, is
+ replaced by the binary log and this option does nothing
+ anymore.
+ --sql-mode=name Syntax: sql-mode=mode[,mode[,mode...]]. See the manual
+ for the complete list of valid sql modes
+ --ssl Enable SSL for connection (automatically enabled with
+ other flags).
+ --ssl-ca=name CA file in PEM format (check OpenSSL docs, implies --ssl)
+ --ssl-capath=name CA directory (check OpenSSL docs, implies --ssl)
+ --ssl-cert=name X509 cert in PEM format (implies --ssl)
+ --ssl-cipher=name SSL cipher to use (implies --ssl)
+ --ssl-key=name X509 key in PEM format (implies --ssl)
+ -s, --symbolic-links
+ Enable symbolic link support.
+ --sync-binlog=# Synchronously flush binary log to disk after every #th
+ event. Use 0 (default) to disable synchronous flushing
+ --sync-frm Sync .frm files to disk on creation
+ (Defaults to on; use --skip-sync-frm to disable.)
+ --sync-master-info=#
+ Synchronously flush master info to disk after every #th
+ event. Use 0 (default) to disable synchronous flushing
+ --sync-relay-log=# Synchronously flush relay log to disk after every #th
+ event. Use 0 (default) to disable synchronous flushing
+ --sync-relay-log-info=#
+ Synchronously flush relay log info to disk after every
+ #th transaction. Use 0 (default) to disable synchronous
+ flushing
+ --sysdate-is-now Non-default option to alias SYSDATE() to NOW() to make it
+ safe-replicable. Since 5.0, SYSDATE() returns a `dynamic'
+ value different for different invocations, even within
+ the same statement.
+ --table-cache=# Deprecated; use --table-open-cache instead.
+ --table-definition-cache=#
+ The number of cached table definitions
+ --table-lock-wait-timeout=#
+ Timeout in seconds to wait for a table level lock before
+ returning an error. Used only if the connection has
+ active cursors
+ --table-open-cache=#
+ The number of cached open tables
+ --tc-heuristic-recover=name
+ Decision to use in heuristic recover process. Possible
+ values are COMMIT or ROLLBACK.
+ --thread-cache-size=#
+ How many threads we should keep in a cache for reuse
+ --thread-handling=name
+ Define threads usage for handling queries, one of
+ one-thread-per-connection, no-threads
+ --thread-stack=# The stack size for each thread
+ --time-format=name The TIME format (ignored)
+ --timed-mutexes Specify whether to time mutexes (only InnoDB mutexes are
+ currently supported)
+ --tmp-table-size=# If an internal in-memory temporary table exceeds this
+ size, MySQL will automatically convert it to an on-disk
+ MyISAM table
+ -t, --tmpdir=name Path for temporary files. Several paths may be specified,
+ separated by a colon (:), in this case they are used in a
+ round-robin fashion
+ --transaction-alloc-block-size=#
+ Allocation block size for transactions to be stored in
+ binary log
+ --transaction-isolation=name
+ Default transaction isolation level.
+ --transaction-prealloc-size=#
+ Persistent buffer for transactions to be stored in binary
+ log
+ --updatable-views-with-limit=name
+ YES = Don't issue an error message (warning only) if a
+ VIEW without presence of a key of the underlying table is
+ used in queries with a LIMIT clause for updating. NO =
+ Prohibit update of a VIEW, which does not contain a key
+ of the underlying table and the query uses a LIMIT clause
+ (usually get from GUI tools)
+ -s, --use-symbolic-links
+ Enable symbolic link support. Deprecated option; use
+ --symbolic-links instead.
+ -u, --user=name Run mysqld daemon as user.
+ -v, --verbose Used with --help option for detailed help
+ -V, --version Output version information and exit.
+ --wait-timeout=# The number of seconds the server waits for activity on a
+ connection before closing it
+ -W, --warnings[=#] Deprecated; use --log-warnings instead.
