Hi, cyusedfzfb, This is a MariaDB mailing list and mysql_native_password is not yet deprecated in MariaDB and is not planned for removal.
Generally, according to our Feature Deprecation Policy: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-feature-deprecation-policy/ if a feature is marked deprecated it cannot be removed in less than 5 years. For widely used features (and mysql_native_password definitely qualifies) it's likely 10 years or more. But, again, mysql_native_password is not deprecated, so its countdown timer didn't start yet.
