 TiFlash mainly supports predicate and aggregate push-down calculations. Push-down calculations can help TiDB perform distributed acceleration. Currently, table joins and `DISTINCT COUNT` are not the supported calculation types, which will be optimized in later versions.
 
-Currently, TiFlash supports pushing down a limited number of expressions. To learn the supported expressions, refer to [expression list](https://github.com/pingcap/tidb/blob/v4.0.0-rc/expression/expression.go#L979).
+Currently, TiFlash supports pushing down a limited number of expressions, including:
+
+```
++, -, /, *, >=, <=, =, !=, <, >, ifnull, isnull, bitor, in, mod, bitand, or, and, like, not, 
+case when, month, substr, timestampdiff, date_format, from_unixtime, json_length, if, bitneg, bitxor, cast(int as decimal), date_add(datetime, int), date_add(datetime, string)
+```
+
+Among them, the push-down of `cast` and `date_add` is not enabled by default. To enable it, refer to [Blocklist of Optimization Rules and Expression Pushdown](/blocklist-control-plan.md).
 
 TiFlash does not support push-down calculations in the following situations:
 
-- Expressions that contain `Duration` and `JSON` cannot be pushed down.
-- If an aggregate function or a `WHERE` clause contains expressions that are not in [this list](https://github.com/pingcap/tidb/blob/v4.0.0-rc/expression/expression.go#L979), the aggregate or related predicate filtering cannot be pushed down.
+- Expressions that contain `Duration` cannot be pushed down.
+- If an aggregate function or a `WHERE` clause contains expressions that are not included in the list above, the aggregate or related predicate filtering cannot be pushed down.
 
 If a query encounters unsupported push-down calculations, TiDB needs to complete the remaining calculations, which might greatly affect the TiFlash acceleration effect.
