* autoconf: Move export_dynamic determination to configureAndres Freund2022-12-061-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously export_dynamic was set in src/makefiles/Makefile.$port. For solaris this required exporting with_gnu_ld. The determination of with_gnu_ld would be nontrivial to copy for meson PGXS compatibility. It's also nice to delete libtool.m4. This uses -Wl,--export-dynamic on all platforms, previously all platforms but FreeBSD used -Wl,-E. The likelihood of a name conflict seems lower with the longer spelling.

* Probe $PROVE not $PERL while checking for modules needed by TAP tests.Tom Lane2021-11-221-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Normally "prove" and "perl" come from the same Perl installation, but we support the case where they don't (mainly because the MSys buildfarm animals need this). In that case, AX_PROG_PERL_MODULES is completely the wrong thing to use, because it's checking what "perl" has. Instead, make a little TAP test script including the required modules, and run that under "prove". We don't need ax_prog_perl_modules.m4 at all after this change, so remove it. Back-patch to all supported branches, for the buildfarm's benefit. (In v10, this also back-patches the effects of commit 264eb03aa.)

* Remove check for accept() argument typesPeter Eisentraut2021-11-091-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | This check was used to accommodate a staggering variety in particular in the type of the third argument of accept(). This is no longer of concern on currently supported systems. We can just use socklen_t in the code and put in a simple check that substitutes int for socklen_t if it's missing, to cover the few stragglers.

* Remove configure-time probe for DocBook DTD.Tom Lane2020-11-301-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Checking for DocBook being installed was valuable when we were on the OpenSP docs toolchain, because that was rather hard to get installed fully. Nowadays, as long as you have xmllint and xsltproc installed, you're good, because those programs will fetch the DocBook files off the net at need. Moreover, testing this at configure time means that a network access may well occur whether or not you have any interest in building the docs later. That can be slow (typically 2 or 3 seconds, though much higher delays have been reported), and it seems not very nice to be doing an off-machine access without warning, too. Hence, drop the PGAC_CHECK_DOCBOOK probe, and adjust related documentation. Without that macro, there's not much left of config/docbook.m4 at all, so I just removed it. Back-patch to v11, where we started to use xmllint in the PGAC_CHECK_DOCBOOK probe.

* Fix configure's AC_CHECK_DECLS tests to work correctly with clang.Tom Lane2018-11-191-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The test case that Autoconf uses to discover whether a function has been declared doesn't work reliably with clang, because clang reports a warning not an error if the name is a known built-in function. On some platforms, this results in a lot of compile-time warnings about strlcpy and related functions not having been declared. There is a fix for this (by Noah Misch) in the upstream Autoconf sources, but since they've not made a release in years and show no indication of doing so anytime soon, let's just absorb their fix directly. We can revert this when and if we update to a newer Autoconf release. Back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/26819.1542515567@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Add configure infrastructure (--with-llvm) to enable LLVM support.Andres Freund2018-03-201-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | LLVM will be used for *optional* Just-in-time compilation support. This commit just adds the configure infrastructure that detects LLVM. No documentation has been added for the --with-llvm flag, that'll be added after the actual supporting code has been added.

* Make configure check for IPC::Run when --enable-tap-tests is specified.Tom Lane2017-06-151-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The TAP tests mostly don't work without IPC::Run, and the reason for the failure is not immediately obvious from the error messages you get. So teach configure to reject --enable-tap-tests unless IPC::Run exists. Mostly this just involves adding ax_prog_perl_modules.m4 from the GNU autoconf archives. This was discussed last year, but we held off on the theory that we might be switching to CMake soon. That's evidently not happening for v10, so let's absorb this now.

* ICU supportPeter Eisentraut2017-03-231-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a column collprovider to pg_collation that determines which library provides the collation data. The existing choices are default and libc, and this adds an icu choice, which uses the ICU4C library. The pg_locale_t type is changed to a union that contains the provider-specific locale handles. Users of locale information are changed to look into that struct for the appropriate handle to use. Also add a collversion column that records the version of the collation when it is created, and check at run time whether it is still the same. This detects potentially incompatible library upgrades that can corrupt indexes and other structures. This is currently only supported by ICU-provided collations. initdb initializes the default collation set as before from the `locale -a` output but also adds all available ICU locales with a "-x-icu" appended. Currently, ICU-provided collations can only be explicitly named collations. The global database locales are still always libc-provided. ICU support is enabled by configure --with-icu.

* Replace our hacked version of ax_pthread.m4 with latest upstream version.Heikki Linnakangas2015-07-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Our version was different from the upstream version in that we tried to use all possible pthread-related flags that the compiler accepts, rather than just the first one that works. That change was made in commit e48322a6d6cfce1ec52ab303441df329ddbc04d1, to work-around a bug affecting GCC versions 3.2 and below (https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8888), although we didn't realize that it was a GCC bug at the time. We hardly care about that old GCC versions anymore, so we no longer need that workaround. This fixes the macro for compilers that print warnings with the chosen flags. That's pretty annoying on its own right, but it also inconspicuously disabled thread-safety, because we refused to use any pthread-related flags if the compiler produced warnings. Max Filippov reported that problem when linking with uClibc and OpenSSL. The warnings-check was added because the workaround for the GCC bug caused warnings otherwise, so it's no longer needed either. We can just use the upstream version as is. If you really want to compile with GCC version 3.2 or older, you can still work-around it manually by setting PTHREAD_CFLAGS="-pthread -lpthread" manually on the configure command line. Backpatch to 9.5. I don't want to unnecessarily rock the boat on stable branches, but 9.5 seems like fair game.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | bits in JDBC & the first set of tools into contrib. This is the third, and deals with enabling JDBC to be compiled with the main source. What it does is add a new option to configure: --with-java This option tells configure to look for ant (our build tool of choice) and if found, it then compiles both the JDBC driver and the new tools as part of the normal make. Also, when the postgresql install is done, all the .jar files are also installed into the ${PGLIB}/java directory (thought best to keep then separate) Now I had some conflicts when this applied so could someone please double check that everything is ok?

* Moved the intricacies of the perl interface build into its own makefilePeter Eisentraut2000-06-101-0/+79
that now functions as a wrapper around the MakeMaker stuff. It might even behave sensically when we have separate build dirs. Same for plperl, which of course still doesn't work very well. Made sure that plperl respects the choice of --libdir. Added --with-python to automatically build and install the Python interface. Works similarly to the Perl5 stuff. Moved the burden of the distclean targets lower down into the source tree. Eventually, each make file should have its own. Added automatic remaking of makefiles and configure. Currently only for the top-level because of a bug(?) in Autoconf. Use GNU `missing' to work around missing autoconf and aclocal. Start factoring out macros into their own config/*.m4 files to increase readability and organization.
