SESSION_USER

Syntax

SESSION_USER()

Description

Prior to MariaDB 11.7, SESSION_USER() is a synonym for USER().

From MariaDB 11.7, it shows the value of CURRENT_USER() when the session was created, that is, it shows a user@host pair from the mysql.global_priv table, like CURRENT_USER(), but unlike CURRENT_USER() it will not change inside stored routines and views. This is SQL Standard behavior for the SESSION_USER function.

Backward-compatible behavior can be restored by setting old mode to SESSION_USER_IS_USER.
