OPTION AND VARIABLE REFERENCE
  The following table provides a list of all the command line options, server
  and status variables applicable within mysqld.

  The table lists command line options (Cmd-line), options valid in
  configuration files (Option file), server system variables (Server Var),
  and status variables (Status var) in one unified list, with notification of
  where each option/variable is valid. If a server option set on the command
  line or in an option file differs from the name of the corresponding server
  system or status variable, the variable name is noted immediately below the
  corresponding option. For status variables, the scope of the variable is
  shown (Scope) as either global, session, or both. Please see the
  corresponding sections for details on setting and using the options and
  variables. Where appropriate, a direct link to further information on the
  item as available.

  Note

  This table is part of an ongoing process to expand and simplify the
  information provided on these elements. Further improvements to the table,
  and corresponding descriptions will be applied over the coming months.
