前言
对于MySQL的理解，我认为很多性能优化工作、主从主主复制都是在调整参数，来适应不同时期不同数量级的数据。
故，理解透彻my.cnf里的参数是永恒的话题；只有理解透彻了参数设置，才能在某些方面对数据库进行调优。
前几天刚接手一个MySQL数据，操作系统为Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS， 数据库版本为5.7.23-0ubuntu0.16.04.1（APT方式安装的MySQL）。这个操作系统下的MySQL的配置文件my.cnf很多地方都让人有点不适应（跟之前的MySQL环境有些出入，之前都是维护RHEL、CentOS等操作系统环境下的MySQL）。
遂研究总结了一下。具体如下所示：
root@mylnx12:~# find / -name "my.cnf"
/etc/alternatives/my.cnf
/etc/mysql/my.cnf
/var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/my.cnf
root@mylnx12:~# locate my.cnf
/etc/alternatives/my.cnf
/etc/mysql/my.cnf
/etc/mysql/my.cnf.fallback
/var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/my.cnf
root@mylnx12:~# mysql --help | grep my.cnf
order of preference, my.cnf, $MYSQL_TCP_PORT,
/etc/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf ~/.my.cnf
root@mylnx12:~# mysqld --verbose --help | grep -A 1 'Default options'
Default options are read from the following files in the given order:
/etc/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf ~/.my.cnf
从上面这些信息判断，MySQL的参数文件为/etc/mysql/my.cnf， 但是其他几个my.cnf又是什么情况呢？
root@mylnx12:~# ls -lrt /etc/alternatives/my.cnf lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Sep 28 16:28 /etc/alternatives/my.cnf -> /etc/mysql/mysql.cnf
从上面信息可以看出，/etc/alternatives/my.cnf 其实是一个软连接，指向参数文件/etc/mysql/mysql.cnf
root@mylnx12:~# cat /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/my.cnf auto /etc/mysql/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf.fallback 100 /etc/mysql/mysql.cnf 200
光从上面这些信息，我们还看不出/var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/my.cnf与其它配置文件my.cnf是什么关系。那么我们先来看看参数文件/etc/mysql/my.cnf,从下面信息，可以看出“/etc/mysql/my.cnf”是全局配置，“~/.my.cnf”隐藏文件是个人用户设置.
root@mylnx12:~# cat /etc/mysql/my.cnf # # The MySQL database server configuration file. # # You can copy this to one of: # - "/etc/mysql/my.cnf" to set global options, # - "~/.my.cnf" to set user-specific options. # # One can use all long options that the program supports. # Run program with --help to get a list of available options and with # --print-defaults to see which it would actually understand and use. # # For explanations see # http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/server-system-variables.html # # * IMPORTANT: Additional settings that can override those from this file! # The files must end with '.cnf', otherwise they'll be ignored. # !includedir /etc/mysql/conf.d/ !includedir /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/
但是/etc/mysql/my.cnf参数文件下面没有任何参数设置，只看到下面两行设置，表示导入这两个目录里面的配置文件。
!includedir /etc/mysql/conf.d/
#表示包含/etc/mysql/conf.d/这个路径下面的配置文件，前提是必须以为.cnf为后缀
!includedir /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/
#表示包含/etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/这个路径下面的配置文件，前提是必须以为.cnf为后缀
其实MySQL的相关配置都位于mysqld.cnf（/etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf）下面。使用相关参数测试了一下，确实都能生效。这种设置确实有点让刚接触的人有点不适应。暂时先总结到此！
