 |Percona XtraBackup| is a combination of the |xtrabackup| *C* program, and the |innobackupex| *Perl* script. The |xtrabackup| program copies and manipulates |InnoDB| and |XtraDB| data files, and the *Perl* script enables enhanced functionality, such as interacting with a running |MySQL| server and backing up |MyISAM| tables.

+============================
+ |Percona XtraBackup| 2.2.5
+============================
+
+Percona is glad to announce the release of |Percona XtraBackup| 2.2.5 on October 2nd 2014. Downloads are available from our download site `here <http://www.percona.com/downloads/XtraBackup/2.2.5/>`_ and from :ref:`apt <apt_repo>` and :ref:`yum <yum_repo>` repositories. 
+
+This release is the current stable release in the 2.2 series.
+
+New Features
+------------
+
+ |Percona XtraBackup| has been rebased on |MySQL| 5.6.21.
+
+Bugs Fixed
+----------
+
+ The fix for bug :bug:`1079700` introduced a problem for users with huge numbers of |InnoDB| tablespaces, and the workaround of raising the open files limits didn't work in all cases due to a limitation in the Linux kernel. A new :option:`innobackupex --close-files` option has been implemented to close the file handles once they are no longer accessed. **NOTE:** Using this option may result in a broken backup if DDL is performed on |InnoDB| tables during the backup procedure. Bug fixed :bug:`1222062`.
+
+ Fix for bug :bug:`1206309` introduced a regression in |Percona XtraBackup| 2.2.0 which caused |Percona XtraBackup| to fail to copy redo logs in random cases. Bug fixed :bug:`1365835`.
+
+ :option:`innobackupex --galera-info` didn't copy the last binlog file when it was taking a backup from server where `backup locks <http://www.percona.com/doc/percona-server/5.6/management/backup_locks.html>`_ are supported. Bug fixed :bug:`1368577`.
+
+ |xtrabackup| binary would accept arguments that were not options, which could lead to unexpected results. Bug fixed :bug:`1367377`.
+
+ If |innobackupex| is run against |MySQL| 5.1 with built-in InnoDB, it will now suggest using |Percona XtraBackup| 2.0 or upgrading to InnoDB plugin, rather than just failing with the generic ``unsupported server version`` message. Bug fixed :bug:`1335101`.
+
+ Using the (deprecated) ``log`` parameter in mysqld section would cause backups to fail. Bug fixed :bug:`1347698`. 
+
+ |Percona XtraBackup| now uses |MySQL| code to get the stack trace in case |Percona XtraBackup| crashes with a segmentation fault or an assertion failure. Bug fixed :bug:`766305`.
+
+ Attempt to use any of the following options without the :option:`innobackupex --incremental` option now fails with an error message rather than creates a full backup: :option:`innobackupex --incremental-lsn`, :option:`innobackupex --incremental-basedir`, :option:`innobackupex --incremental-history-name`, :option:`innobackupex --incremental-history-uuid`. Bug fixed :bug:`1213778`.
+
+Other bugs fixed: :bug:`1367613`, :bug:`1368574`, :bug:`1370462`, :bug:`1371441`, :bug:`1373429`, :bug:`1373984`, and :bug:`1265070`.
+
+All of Percona's software is open-source and free, all the details of the release can be found in the `2.2.5 milestone <https://launchpad.net/percona-xtrabackup/+milestone/2.2.5>`_ at Launchpad.
