Information Schema INNODB_SYS_TABLES Table

The Information Schema INNODB_SYS_TABLES table contains information about InnoDB tables.

The PROCESS privilege is required to view the table.

It has the following columns:

Column Description Added
TABLE_ID Unique InnoDB table identifier.
NAME Database and table name, or the uppercase InnoDB system table name.
FLAG See Flag below.
N_COLS Number of columns in the table.
SPACE Tablespace identifier where the index resides. 0 represents the InnoDB system tablespace, while any other value represents a table created in file-per-table mode (see the innodb_file_per_table system variable). Remains unchanged after a TRUNCATE TABLE statement.
FILE_FORMAT InnoDB file format (Antelope or Barracuda). MariaDB 10.0
ROW_FORMAT InnoDB storage format (Compact, Redundant, Dynamic, or Compressed). MariaDB 10.0
ZIP_PAGE_SIZE For Compressed tables, the zipped page size. MariaDB 10.0

Flag

The flag field returns the dict_table_t::flags that correspond to the data dictionary record.

Bit Description
0 Set if ROW_FORMAT is not REDUNDANT.
1 to 4 0, except for ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED, where they will determine the KEY_BLOCK_SIZE (the compressed page size).
5 Set for ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC or ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED.
6 Set if the DATA DIRECTORY attribute was present when the table was originally created.
7 Set if the page_compressed attribute is present.
8 to 11 Determine the page_compression_level.
12 13 Normally 00, but 11 for "no-rollback tables" (MariaDB 10.3 CREATE SEQUENCE). In MariaDB 10.1, these bits could be 01 or 10 for ATOMIC_WRITES=ON or ATOMIC_WRITES=OFF.

Note that the table flags returned here are not the same as tablespace flags (FSP_SPACE_FLAGS).
