The mysqlnd replication and load balancing plugin (<literal>mysqlnd_ms</literal>)
performs read/write splitting. This directs write queries to a MySQL
master server, and read-only queries to the MySQL slave servers.
The plugin has a built-in read/write split logic.
All queries which start with <literal>SELECT</literal> are considered read-only
queries, which are then sent to a MySQL slave server that is listed in
the plugin configuration file. All other queries are directed to the
MySQL master server that is also specified in the plugin configuration file.
</para>
<para>
User supplied SQL hints can be used to overrule automatic read/write splitting,
to gain full control on the process. SQL hints are standards compliant
SQL comments. The plugin will scan the beginning of a query string for
an SQL comment for certain commands, which then control query redirection.
Other systems involved in the query processing are unaffected by the
SQL hints because other systems will ignore the SQL comments.
</para>
<para>
The plugin supports three SQL hints to direct queries to either the MySQL slave
servers, the MySQL master server, or the last used MySQL server. SQL hints
must be placed at the beginning of a query to be recognized by the plugin.
</para>
<para>
For better portability, it is recommended to use the string constants
<constant>MYSQLND_MS_MASTER_SWITCH</constant>,
<constant>MYSQLND_MS_SLAVE_SWITCH</constant> and
<constant>MYSQLND_MS_LAST_USED_SWITCH</constant> instead of their literal
values.

Use to request the service level eventual consistency from the
<function>mysqlnd_ms_set_qos</function>. Eventual consistency is the
default quality of service when reading from an asynchronous MySQL
replication slave. Data returned in this service level may or may not
be stale, depending on whether the selected slaves happens to have replicated
the lastest changes from the MySQL replication master or not.

The plugins version number can be obtained using
<constant>MYSQLND_MS_VERSION</constant> or
<constant>MYSQLND_MS_VERSION_ID</constant>.
<constant>MYSQLND_MS_VERSION</constant>
is the string representation of the numerical version number
<constant>MYSQLND_MS_VERSION_ID</constant>, which is an integer such as 10000.
Developers can calculate the version number as follows.
