Note that tag_key1, tag_key2 are not the original order of the tags entered by the user but the result of using the tag names in ascending order of the strings. Therefore, tag_key1 is not the first tag entered in the line protocol.
The string's MD5 hash value "md5_val" is calculated after the ranking is completed. The calculation result is then combined with the string to generate the table name: "t_md5_val". "t\_" is a fixed prefix that every table generated by this mapping relationship has.

You can configure smlChildTableName in taos.cfg to specify table names, for example, `smlChildTableName=tname`. You can insert `st,tname=cpul,t1=4 c1=3 1626006833639000000` and the cpu1 table will be automatically created. Note that if multiple rows have the same tname but different tag_set values, the tag_set of the first row is used to create the table and the others are ignored.
2. If the super table obtained by parsing the line protocol does not exist, this super table is created.
**Important:** Manually creating supertables for schemaless writing is not supported. Schemaless writing creates appropriate supertables automatically.
3. If the subtable obtained by the parse line protocol does not exist, Schemaless creates the sub-table according to the subtable name determined in steps 1 or 2.

7. Errors encountered throughout the processing will interrupt the writing process and return an error code.
8. It is assumed that the order of field_set in a supertable is consistent, meaning that the first record contains all fields and subsequent records store fields in the same order. If the order is not consistent, set smlDataFormat to false. Otherwise, data will be written out of order and a database error will occur.

All processing logic of schemaless will still follow TDengine's underlying restrictions on data structures, such as the total length of each row of data cannot exceed 48 KB and the total length of a tag value cannot exceed 16 KB. See [TDengine SQL Boundary Limits](/taos-sql/limit) for specific constraints in this area.
