      Description

      MySQL has removed safe-mode option in MySQL 5.6.6, but in 10.0 it still exists, although deprecated. Still, it turns out to be important (and confusing), e.g. it silently disables query cache, and who knows what else. So it would be useful to document it in detail.

            This option is documented at https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/mysqld-options/#-safe-mode and linked to from https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/full-list-of-mariadb-options-system-and-status-variables/

            Is there detail missing, or somewhere else it should be linked from?

            My bad, I was looking at the "Server System Variables" page, while it is an option only.
