Postgres 9.1 package for i.MX51X processor from Freescale

Hi,

 

Is there a ready postgres 9.1 Package for the i.MX51X processor (ARM Cortex architecture) available or do I need to compile the Postgres source myself ?

I need it for a board having the i.MX51 processor and Linux (one of the latest versions of kernel – yet to decide the exact version).

If I need to compile postgres source, then what parameters should I use for this particular processor architecture ?

Also, I am yet to find a cross compilation tool chain for this processor.

If any ideas, please share.

 

Thanks and Regards

Jay

from the perspective of compiling a package like Postgres, the libc and
other libraries version is more important than the kernel

IMHO, the important things to decide at compile time are...

  * prefix directory
  * ssl support?
  * plpython?
  * plperl?
  * uuid support?


ssl, perl, python, and uuid will all require the appropriate runtime
libraries.
