PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA Storage Engine

If you run SHOW ENGINES, you'll see the following storage engine listed.

SHOW ENGINES\G
...
      Engine: PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA
     Support: YES
     Comment: Performance Schema
Transactions: NO
          XA: NO
  Savepoints: NO
...

The PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA is not a regular storage engine for storing data, it's a mechanism for implementing the Performance Schema feature.

The SHOW ENGINE PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA STATUS statement is also available, which shows how much memory is used by the tables and internal buffers.

See Performance Schema for more details.
