Hi, we got some problem with building PostgreSQL (version 15.1) on linux
ldd —version returns
ldd (Debian GLIBC 2.31-13+deb11u5.tmw1) 2.31
we can build it all right, however we want to use binaries on different glibc version
so we’re detecting usage of the glibc version > 2.17 and we need to prevent usage
of symbols (like explicit_bzero), that wasn’t exist in glibc 2.17.
what we see that even if I commented line
$as_echo "#define HAVE_EXPLICIT_BZERO 1" >>confdefs.h
from configure we still have a problem - symbol explicit_bzero was leaked in
lib/libpq.so.5.15, bin/postgres, bin/pg_verifybackup
I was able to verify that HAVE_EXPLICIT_BZERO wasn’t defined
in all c files that use explicit_bzero:
./src/interfaces/libpq/fe-connect.c
./src/backend/libpq/be-secure-common.c
./src/common/hmac_openssl.c
./src/common/cryptohash.c
./src/common/cryptohash_openssl.c
./src/common/hmac.c
how we can guaranty that if HAVE_EXPLICIT_BZERO is not defined then
explicit_bzero function implemented in port/explicit_bzero.c will be used (just like in Darwin or windows)
thanks in advance
