Thread: Patches for 7.1 on QNX4
Sorry I didn't have this ready in time for the 7.1 release, but I was rather busy in march, and during that time the QNX partition on my home system got trashed ... I still had one non reproducible segfault when I interrupted a 'make installcheck' and I had to remove the shared memory file '/dev/shmem/SysV_Sem_Info' once before initdb would work, so there may be still some problem with the semaphore implementation. After several requests I have put up a binary for download at http://pweb.uunet.de/tegge.h/postgres.qnx4bin.7.1.tgz Short installation instructions: - install as root with # cd / ; etc/install -u postgres.qnx4bin.7.1.tgz - create a user and group postgres - chown the files in /usr/local/psql to user/group postgres. # chown postgres:postgres /usr/local/psql # chown -R postgres:postgres /usr/local/psql - add /usr/local/pgsql/bin to your path - su to user postgres, run /usr/local/pgsql/initdb - run 'postmaster -i >/usr/local/pgsql/postmaster.log &' Postgres on qnx4 should now be operational. -- Bernd Tegge mailto:tegge@repas-aeg.de Tel: ++49-511-87449-12 repas AEG Automation GmbH Fax: ++49-511-87449-20 GS Hannover, Germany

I looked this over and it looks safe for 7.1.1. Only QNX changes are made. Can someone confirm? If no one confirms it is save, I will keep it for 7.2. > Sorry I didn't have this ready in time for the 7.1 release, but I was rather > busy in march, and during that time the QNX partition on my home system got > trashed ... > > I still had one non reproducible segfault when I interrupted a > 'make installcheck' and I had to remove the shared memory file > '/dev/shmem/SysV_Sem_Info' once before initdb would work, so there > may be still some problem with the semaphore implementation. > > After several requests I have put up a binary for download at > http://pweb.uunet.de/tegge.h/postgres.qnx4bin.7.1.tgz > > Short installation instructions: > - install as root with > # cd / ; etc/install -u postgres.qnx4bin.7.1.tgz > - create a user and group postgres > - chown the files in /usr/local/psql to user/group postgres. > # chown postgres:postgres /usr/local/psql > # chown -R postgres:postgres /usr/local/psql > - add /usr/local/pgsql/bin to your path > - su to user postgres, run /usr/local/pgsql/initdb > - run 'postmaster -i >/usr/local/pgsql/postmaster.log &' > > Postgres on qnx4 should now be operational. > > -- > Bernd Tegge mailto:tegge@repas-aeg.de > Tel: ++49-511-87449-12 repas AEG Automation GmbH > Fax: ++49-511-87449-20 GS Hannover, Germany [ Attachment, skipping... ] > > ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- > TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to majordomo@postgresql.org -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000 + If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026

Can you fix the compiler installation so you won't need the weird -I/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i386-pc-qnx4/egcs-2.91.60/include/g++ option anymore? Also, can you check the comment in src/backend/bootstrap/Makefile, "qnx4's wlink currently crashes with bootstrap.o". Is this fixed? -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net http://funkturm.homeip.net/~peter

No! It also reverts my 1.91 changes in s_lock.h. Please correct the
patch to not do that.

The patch for plpgsql/Makefile is unnecessary. The patch for pg_regress.sh should be taken out as well. If someone wants to run the parallel regression tests he can install a real shell. -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net http://funkturm.homeip.net/~peter
OK, there have been enough comments that I will wait for an updated patch. > Sorry I didn't have this ready in time for the 7.1 release, but I was rather > busy in march, and during that time the QNX partition on my home system got > trashed ... > > I still had one non reproducible segfault when I interrupted a > 'make installcheck' and I had to remove the shared memory file > '/dev/shmem/SysV_Sem_Info' once before initdb would work, so there > may be still some problem with the semaphore implementation. > > After several requests I have put up a binary for download at > http://pweb.uunet.de/tegge.h/postgres.qnx4bin.7.1.tgz > > Short installation instructions: > - install as root with > # cd / ; etc/install -u postgres.qnx4bin.7.1.tgz > - create a user and group postgres > - chown the files in /usr/local/psql to user/group postgres. > # chown postgres:postgres /usr/local/psql > # chown -R postgres:postgres /usr/local/psql > - add /usr/local/pgsql/bin to your path > - su to user postgres, run /usr/local/pgsql/initdb > - run 'postmaster -i >/usr/local/pgsql/postmaster.log &' > > Postgres on qnx4 should now be operational. > > -- > Bernd Tegge mailto:tegge@repas-aeg.de > Tel: ++49-511-87449-12 repas AEG Automation GmbH > Fax: ++49-511-87449-20 GS Hannover, Germany [ Attachment, skipping... ] > > ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- > TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to majordomo@postgresql.org -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000 + If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026

Fine with me (it's a mighty ugly patch) but if we treat it that way
then FAQ_QNX4 had best mention that the parallel regress tests do not
work without <some shell>. Compare FAQ_HPUX.
