Thread: PostgreSQL supported platform report and a patch.

PostgreSQL supported platform report and a patch.

From
"Billy G. Allie"
Date:
I am including a set of 4 small patches that enable PostgreSQL 7.3b3 to build
successfully on OpenUnix 8.0.  These same patches should also work for UnixWare
7.x.  I will confirm that tomorrow (Nov 7, 2002).

Here is an explanation of the patches:

1. An update of the FAQ_SCO file.

2. This patch removes a static declaration of a in-line function in
   src/backend/utils/sort/tuplesort.c

3. This patch to src/makefiles/Makefile.unixware, together with the patch to
   src/Makefile.global.in allows any addition library search directories (added
   with the configure --with-libraries option) to be added to the rpath option
   sent to the linker.  The use of a different variable to pass the addition
   search paths was necessary to avoid a circular reference to LDFLAGS.

4. This patch creates the variable (trpath) used by the patch to
   Makefile.unixware.  This patch would also be for other platforms that would
   have to add the additional library search paths to  the rpath linker option.
   See Makefile.unixware for an example of how to do this.

After applying these patches, PostgreSQL successfully compiled on OpenUnix 8
and it passed all the regression tests.

I am fine with this because it only touches unixware-specific stuff,
except the change to Tom's inline function:

  [static] inline Datum
  myFunctionCall2(FmgrInfo *flinfo, Datum arg1, Datum arg2)

Tom will have to comment on that.

That change would actively break some platforms (see C99 inline
specifications).  Why is it necessary for SCO?  We certainly have
plenty of other static inline functions ...

Uh, what version are you testing exactly?  I thought we'd resolved that
as of a week or so back (certainly in 7.3b4).

It was 7.3b3.  I've downloaded 7.3b5 and tested it.  The problem with
tuplesort.c has indeed been fixed.

Bruce,  ignore the patch to tuplesort.c that I sent in.  The other three
patches are still valid.

Thanks.

The static-inline change was obsoleted by a recent fix, per discussion.
But the rpath changes seem possibly useful (or maybe my thoughts are
just colored by the fact that I'm currently trying to persuade OpenSSL
to build with a non-broken rpath setup on HPUX...)  Do you have an
objection to the rpath part of Billy's patch?

That's true!

But I had to export CFLAGS=-Xb to compile (this should be in port Makefile
IMHO)
Also, I think the Setting of LD_LIBRARY_PATH could be a win to. Although I
doubt anyone would run uw whith at least
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib:/usr/local/lib, setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH and includes
in the port makefile could ease the configure  process as readline is not
found if you don't add --with-includes ans --with-libs on configure
command.

Tom fixed the tuplesort.c issue with some help from the Caldera/SCO
Compiler team
(I'm on the 7.1.3 BETA).


My system has always found the readline stuff (I use the skunkware
readline).

It hasn't been an issue on my system.

Not necessarily.  I was just concerned about the tuplesort one, and the fact
that mine builds and passes without the changes.

Tom fixed that with a later tuplesort.c fix (per a discussion with the
Caldera/SCO
compiler guys).

Huh! I just tried to compile 7.3b5 without CFLAGS=-Xb, it still bugs the

Here is the error messages generated during the compile:

cc -K pentium_pro,host,inline,loop_unroll -I../../../../src/include
-I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/ssl/include  -c -o tuplesort.o tuplesort.c

UX:acomp: ERROR: "tuplesort.c", line 1897: "inline" functions cannot use
"static" identifier: myFunctionCall2
gmake[4]: *** [tuplesort.o] Error 1

The problem only occurs in tuplesort.c.  It does not occur in pg_lzcompress.c
or aset.c, which are the only other source files that contain static inline
function definitions that get compiled.  The rest are IF DEFed out.

I think the problem is that myFunctionCall2 is called by a non-static inline
function, ApplySortFunction.  If I make ApplySortFunction static, it compiles
(but break the link phase).  If I remove the inline from ApplySortFunction, it
compiles and builds.  In order for tuplesort.c to compile on OpenUNIX the code
must be changed to either:

1.  Remove the static modifier from myFuntionCall2
    or
2.  Remove the inline from ApplySortFunction
    or
3.  Wrap the static modifier for myFunctionCall2 with an IF DEF so it's not
    there when USE_UNIVEL_CC is defined.

I think that option 2 is the best choice, but it's your call.

Was that using gcc or the native compiler?
Was it in linux kernel personality mode or OpenUNIX mode.

I was compiling using the native (UDK) compiler. and it failed in tuplesort.c.
It was also unable to file the readline shared libraries without the changes to the makefiles or setting LD_RUN_PATH
(whichis a pain and is depreciated in OpenUNIX 8 and UnixWare 7).

It was 7.3b3.  I've just downloaded 7.3b5 and will re-test.
If that's the case then ignore the patch to tuplesort.c  The rest of the
patches are still valid though.

This is an entirely new feature, so it's inappropriate to do now.  And if
we do it, we should do it for all platforms.

Larry,

You probably have /usr/local/lib LD_LIBRARY_PATH.  On my system
LD_LIBRARY_PATH defaults to /usr/X/lib:/lib and LD_RUN_PATH are not set, and I
prefer it that way.  The rpath related changes allow me to specify the
additional library search paths by using the configure --with-libraries option
and have those paths placed into the executable so that the executables can
run without having to the default setting of LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

After reading the discussions, I can think of another enhancement to the rpath
changes:  have the contents of LD_LIBRARY_PATH added to the -R (or -rpath)
option inside the port specific makefile.  That way, if you add the additional
search paths to LD_LIBRARY_PATH you won't have to use the --with-libraries and
the executable(s) will have the runtime search paths in them so they will
execute without having to change the default LD_LIBRARY_PATH setting.

Billy, so your rpath changes are for handling customization you made to
your OS.  Sounds like a feature addition to me, which will go into 7.4
only.

This has been saved for the 7.4 release:

I will not apply the _inline_ part.
