Information Schema INNODB_BUFFER_PAGE Table

The Information Schema INNODB_BUFFER_PAGE table contains information about pages in the buffer pool.

The PROCESS privilege is required to view the table.

It has the following columns:

Column Description
POOL_ID Buffer Pool identifier.
BLOCK_ID Buffer Pool Block identifier.
SPACE Tablespace identifier. Matches the SPACE value in the INNODB_SYS_TABLES table.
PAGE_NUMBER Buffer pool page number.
PAGE_TYPE Page type; one of allocated (newly-allocated page), index (B-tree node), undo_log (undo log page), inode (index node), ibuf_free_list (insert buffer free list), ibuf_bitmap (insert buffer bitmap), system (system page), trx_system (transaction system data), file_space_header (file space header), extent_descriptor (extent descriptor page), blob (uncompressed blob page), compressed_blob (first compressed blob page), compressed_blob2 (subsequent compressed blob page) or unknown.
FLUSH_TYPE Flush type.
FIX_COUNT Count of the threads using this block in the buffer pool. When it is zero, the block can be evicted from the buffer pool.
IS_HASHED Whether or not a hash index has been built on this page.
NEWEST_MODIFICATION Most recent modification's Log Sequence Number.
OLDEST_MODIFICATION Oldest modification's Log Sequence Number.
ACCESS_TIME Abstract number representing the time the page was first accessed.
TABLE_NAME Table that the page belongs to.
INDEX_NAME Index that the page belongs to, either a clustered index or a secondary index.
NUMBER_RECORDS Number of records the page contains.
DATA_SIZE Size in bytes of all the records contained in the page.
COMPRESSED_SIZE Compressed size in bytes of the page, or NULL for pages that aren't compressed.
PAGE_STATE Page state; one of FILE_PAGE (page from a file) or MEMORY (page from an in-memory object) for valid data, or one of NULL, READY_FOR_USE, NOT_USED, REMOVE_HASH.
IO_FIX Whether there is I/O pending for the page; one of IO_NONE (no pending I/O), IO_READ (read pending), IO_WRITE (write pending).
IS_OLD Whether the page is old or not.
FREE_PAGE_CLOCK Freed_page_clock counter, which tracks the number of blocks removed from the end of the least recently used (LRU) list, at the time the block was last placed at the head of the list.

The related INFORMATION_SCHEMA.INNODB_BUFFER_PAGE_LRU table contains the same information, but with an LRU (least recently used) position rather than block id.
