Time for RC1 soon?

No, at least not now. I'm not able to communicate reliably with the
mailing lists, and so can not coordinate anything :( Not sure when or if
that will be resolved, but I'll be out of town next week so...

Yes, I have noticed this happening at random times.

I've checked CVS tip on:

I get the following on Linux/Sparc, Debian 3.0:

My gcc version:

Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-linux/2.95.4/specs
gcc version 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)

This is CVS tip as of about 11:30 EST Saturday.

Looking into it, we have in ascii_and_mic.c:

PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1(ascii_to_mic)
PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1(mic_to_ascii)

Putting a semicolon after each such line fixes that compile, but there
are other files under conversion_procs with the same problem. Is my
gcc not expanding the macro properly?

OK, compile went fine, but I get multiple regression test failures:

I have attached a gzipped copy of "regression.diffs". Let me know if
I can supply any other help.

The geometry one looked like rounding issues.

Did you run out of space on where the data directory was mounted?
At least some of the other errors were complaining about no space
left on device.

After realizing that my disk had filled up (thanks Alvaro) I reran the
tests and 'geometry' is the only failure. I'm guessing this is due to
floating-point differences? If this is OK, then

Linux/Sparc (Debian 3.0)

is a PASS.

I talked to him about that and we both feel this week while he is away
will be pretty quiet and the only major thing left is making sure our
docs are ready and we have enough platform reports.

If we can go RC1 soon, we will keep beta to 2 months, which I think is
acceptable.

Tom returns Wednesday so let's see how we are this Thursday/Friday.

Unless we see serious problem reports in the next week, I think RC1 on
Friday is reasonable. (That assumes people get the platform tests
done, of course.)

Make check failed with the normal spurious errors.
Make installcheck also failed on horology, copy2 and domain - see
attached output.

The clocks changed here on Saturday night, so I guess that shouldn't
have caused the first error (or should the docs be updated?).

The second 2 errors are both with copys - related to the problem with
the listen() backlog queue in the parallel test perhaps?

CYGWIN_NT-5.1 PC9 1.3.10(0.51/3/2) 2002-02-25 11:14 i686 unknown

^^^^^^

Please try with Cygwin 1.3.14-1 while I attempt to deal with at least
the following Cygwin build issues with PostgreSQL CVS as of today at
about 7:00 AM EST:

1. pg_config.h.in HAVE_FSEEKO ifdef:

make[4]: Entering directory `/home/jt/src/pgsql/src/backend/access/common'
gcc -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -I../../../../src/include -DBUILDING_DLL -c -o heaptuple.o heaptuple.c
In file included from ../../../../src/include/c.h:56,
from ../../../../src/include/postgres.h:48,
from heaptuple.c:21:
/usr/include/stdio.h:207: parse error before `('

2. Cygwin bison limit exceeded:

make[4]: Entering directory `/home/jt/src/pgsql/src/interfaces/ecpg/preproc'
[snip]
bison -y -d preproc.y
preproc.y:5560: fatal error: maximum table size (32767) exceeded

Make check failed with the normal spurious errors.

I would stick with make installcheck due to the Cygwin (i.e., Windows)
backlog issue.

Make installcheck also failed on horology, copy2 and domain - see
attached output.

The clocks changed here on Saturday night, so I guess that shouldn't
have caused the first error (or should the docs be updated?).

The second 2 errors are both with copys - related to the problem with
the listen() backlog queue in the parallel test perhaps?

I haven't looked into the above yet due to the build problems. Any help
regarding these issues is gratefully appreciated.

Thanks,
Jason

I thought the join was part of the timezone change, but I see now that
it is separate. I will fix it by adding ORDER BY.

at least the following Cygwin build issues with PostgreSQL
CVS as of today at about 7:00 AM EST:

Ok, but this is going to take a while as few of the mirrors seem to have
this release yet. I also need to download a new set of everything for
reasons I won't go into.

Is there actually a reason for this though or are you just trying to
keep me busy? :-) It can't be a good thing for us to require that people
upgrade to the latest release of their OS.

2. Cygwin bison limit exceeded:

[snip]
bison -y -d preproc.y
preproc.y:5560: fatal error: maximum table size (32767) exceeded

I believe a new bison is required now. Don't know much about it other
than ecpg hit some limit or other and much discussion followed. Iirc,
it's only an issue when compiling from CVS, not a tarball.

Regards, Dave.

Make installcheck also failed on horology, copy2 and domain - see
attached output.

The clocks changed here on Saturday night, so I guess that shouldn't
have caused the first error (or should the docs be updated?).

Horology failures are normal for a day or so on either side of a DST
change --- see the "regression tests interpretation" docs. I have
no time right now to examine the other diffs.

I'll try again tomorrow.

1.50 of Bison fixed the issue, 1.75 works as well (current public
release).

Just my $.02.

My WAG is that you will be able to upgrade your Cygwin installation

Agreed, but sometimes a new Cygwin release fixes some problems and

In the US, DST changes occur at 02:00 Sunday, so the affected queries
actually fail starting at 00:00 Sunday and ending 00:00 Tuesday ---
but that's local time in PST8PDT. The docs are vague because your local
time might vary considerably from that ...

I guess my WAG was wrong... :,)

Under the following platform:

$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.0 TISHLERJASON 1.3.14(0.62/3/2) 2002-10-23 14:47 i686 unknown

all make installcheck tests pass except for horology. However, the
horology failure is to be expected due to the recent time change.

Unfortunately, there are some Cygwin build issues that I need to
address:

1. Cygwin bison needs to be upgraded from 1.35 to 1.75 (i.e., 1.50+) to
process src/interfaces/ecpg/preproc/preproc.y successfully. I will post
to the Cygwin mailing list asking the maintainer for this upgrade.

2. The following fseeko/ftello ifdef in src/include/pg_config.h.in:

#ifndef HAVE_FSEEKO
#define fseeko(a, b, c) fseek((a), (b), (c))
#define ftello(a) ftell((a))
#endif

conflicts with the following Cygwin /usr/include/stdio.h entries:

int _EXFUN(fseeko, (FILE *, off_t, int));
off_t _EXFUN(ftello, ( FILE *));

Unfortunately, I'm not sure what is the best way to solve this one yet.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jason

I've been meaning to ask this for a while - what exactly is a WAG? :-)

OK. This shouldn't stop a release though I assume, only a build from
CVS.

Yes, I'm seeing errors with this on my updated Cygwin very early in the
build. I did think it was my hacked about installation, but I guess not!

Unfortunately though, I don't know the answer either, but I guess the
change was in Cygwin as I didn't see it before you asked me to upgrade.

Regards, Dave.

For confirmation: IIRC CVS now requires the latest Bison (1.75)?
(The Irix machine has 1.35).

Sorry, Ian, here is the patch I applied. You can apply this to whatever
version you are using and test Irix with that, rather than having to
grab CVS.

Strange. I just got report from another OSX 10.2.1 user saying
regression tests passed:

10.2.1, Adam Witney (awitney@sghms.ac.uk>

The proper value seems to be:

15.3864610140472

or

15.3864610140473

in ./expected/geometry-powerpc-darwin.out. Which is it, folks?

Are you compiling from CVS or from a released tarball? The bison
requirement was recently raised to bison 1.5 or above (1.75 was recently
released also.) This is an issue only when compiling from CVS, since
the bison stuff is preprocessed for released tarballs. So you might
want to try the just release beta3.

I have updated CVS and re-added getopt.c, now in /port, and updated
win32.mak. That should help.

Bruce,

Not sure. I know Tom Lane ran a check on 10.1.x and didn't have any
errors, so I figured the differences I saw reflected changes made by
Apple between 10.1.x and 10.2.x. Then, I was surprised when I saw Adam's
report, so I thought perhaps he was running on a PPC G3 and there were
differences between G3 and G4 floating point handling (I had run the
original regression tests on a PowerBook G4/400 MHz). So, I ran the same
exact scenario on my aging iMac (G3/266 Mhz). Those results corroborated
my original test (geometry failed; horology cleared up, though, as
expected). So, something is different between Adam's system and the two
I have easy access to. I have confirmed that both my systems are running
10.2.1. Similarly, the tests were both run on 7.3b3 from the full
tarball on ftp.us.postgresql.org. The new iMac G3 regression.diffs
output is immediately below. Regardless, it would appear that Mac OS X
10.2.x is well supported.

The existing geometry file is exactly correct on my laptop (Powerbook

to figure that out and refine the resultmap, not just change the

I guess my WAG was wrong... :,)

I've been meaning to ask this for a while - what exactly is a WAG? :-)

Larry was kind enough to answer this one for me. :,)

1. Cygwin bison needs to be upgraded from 1.35 to 1.75 (i.e.,
1.50+) to process src/interfaces/ecpg/preproc/preproc.y
successfully. I will post to the Cygwin mailing list asking
the maintainer for this upgrade.

OK. This shouldn't stop a release though I assume, only a build from
CVS.

Yes. Nevertheless, I have posted my request:

http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-10/msg01740.html

2. The following fseeko/ftello ifdef in src/include/pg_config.h.in:

#ifndef HAVE_FSEEKO
#define fseeko(a, b, c) fseek((a), (b), (c))
#define ftello(a) ftell((a))
#endif

conflicts with the following Cygwin /usr/include/stdio.h entries:

int _EXFUN(fseeko, (FILE *, off_t, int));
off_t _EXFUN(ftello, ( FILE *));

Unfortunately, I'm not sure what is the best way to solve
this one yet. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I found a solution to the above which will hopefully find its way into
the next Cygwin release:

http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-patches/2002-q4/msg00042.html

Yes, I'm seeing errors with this on my updated Cygwin very early in
the build. I did think it was my hacked about installation, but I
guess not!

A quick and *dirty* fix for this problem is to temporarily delete the
above two entries from your stdio.h file.

I noticed that the supported platforms listed 7.2 for linux alpha but
with yesterdays date. I figured it was just a typo, but thought I would
try to compile myself just to be sure, but I received 4 failures:
horology,geometry,opr_sanity, and misc

This is on alpha running debian 3 linux
uname -a = Linux usf-cf-alpha-linux-1 2.2.20 #2 Wed Mar 20 19:57:28 EST
2002 alpha unknown

regression output can be seen at:
http://phppgadmin.sourceforge.net/regression.diffs
http://phppgadmin.sourceforge.net/regression.out

my alpha history is spotty at best, perhaps someone else can help me
interpret things.

Yes, I'm seeing errors with this on my updated Cygwin very early in

guess not!

A quick and *dirty* fix for this problem is to temporarily delete the
above two entries from your stdio.h file.

Hi Jason,

All regression tests pass with the above hack on:

CYGWIN_NT-5.1 PC9 1.3.14(0.62/3/2) 2002-10-24 10:48 i686 unknown

Hackers: As the Cygwin release that is actively supported is the binary
distribution that Jason builds, I would think this is OK to be listed as
supported if no-one disagrees...

I think on Linux Alpha and Sparc alot has to do with the gcc compiler
version.
My system is handupgraded from Redhat 6.2, kernel 2.2.x to be using a
much newer kernel (2.4.X-aaX).
But it's been working flawlessly with almost any kernel from 2.2 up to
where i am now, using postgresql from the 6.x days.

What compiler version are you using?
Is this Debian release a stable branch?

hmm... I'm not an admin on the box, this is one of the boxes from the
sourceforge compile farm. /proc/version reports this as Debian
prerelease, and kernel version reports 2.2.20.

Attached is a diff to fix the pclose problem. It turns out there was
code in there to make popen/pclose be _popen/_pclose, but it was only in
common.c, even in 7.2.3 (print.c). Not sure how it would compile in the
past with that. Maybe it didn't. Anyway, this is committed and should
_help_ with the compile.

Entirely up to you - you do the build :-). I'm just pointing out that

Thanks Bruce, builds fine now.

Actually, I'm sure it did just a few weeks ago - We've been developing
pgAdmin III in C++ using libpq on Windows, Linux and FreeBSD for a few
weeks now and we've been using the CVS code.

I was meekly trying to voice my concern about who supplies the "support"
mentioned above.

If my patch gets accepted, then the stdio.h hack won't be necessary for
anyone (after the next Cygwin release).

Sorry, Ian, here is the patch I applied. You can apply this to whatever

OK, I have carried out make check with the updated tests but
got FAILED on the same four tests (abstime, tinterval, horology, join).

The failures are subtly different (see here for new regression diff):

http://home.akademie.de/~IBarwick/IRIX_65_1.regression.diffs

Having looked at them again I see the following:
- in horology the timestamp tests seem to have succeeded (presumably
the previous failures were triggered by the change to winter time);
- the tests which are still failing in abstime, tinterval and horology
all refer to dates before 1970, where AFAICS they are all out by one hour;
possibly this explanation?:

"Some systems using older time zone libraries fail to apply daylight-saving
corrections to dates before 1970, causing pre-1970 PDT times to be displayed
in PST instead. This will result in localized differences in the test
results."

(cf. http://www.postgresql.org/idocs/index.php?regress-evaluation.html );

- the join tests are failing slightly differently; I would suggest that
this is because the ORDER BY is still not explicit enough, and for what
ever reason under IRIX the undefined result row orderings are in a different
order to every other platform...

e.g. with this statement:

SELECT '' AS "xxx", J1_TBL.i, j, t, k
FROM J1_TBL LEFT OUTER JOIN J2_TBL USING (i)
ORDER BY i;

xxx | i | j | t | k

| 6 | 6 | six |
| 7 | 7 | seven |
| 8 | 8 | eight |
| | 0 | zero |
| | | null |

the order of the last two rows is not defined. The expected order
according to the regression tests is:

| | | null |

I disagree. We document as supported those platforms that build out of
the box, not those that build somehow, somewhere, by someone.

Rather than advocating methods to manually edit your system headers we
should try to find out what the problem really is, such as by analyzing
config.log.

Did you miss the following?

As you can see, I have already performed root cause analysis of theses
problems *and* have taken the proper steps to ensure that PostgreSQL
builds OOTB under Cygwin (after the next Cygwin release).

I have reviewed your diff and found that it was either timezone changes
or join.sql which I have recently fixed. Can you grab current CVS
snapshot and try again?

So, errno function is undefined.

This is quite strange, because that section hasn't been changed in the

#if defined(__alpha)
other is
#if defined(NOFIXADE) || defined(NOPRINTADE)
Maybe is the setting of NOFIXADE or NOPRINTADE to be changed upstream?

Evidently main.c needs "#include <errno.h>" added. Please add that and
see if you get any further. There might be other files with the same
problem?

Seems like someone ought to issue a call for port reports. The
"supported platforms" list hasn't been touched ...

Good point. Thomas, can you take that on?

No, at least not now. I'm not able to communicate reliably with the
mailing lists, and so can not coordinate anything :( Not sure when or if
that will be resolved, but I'll be out of town next week so...

[ Reposted with proper subject line.]

OK, Tom will be away next week, and Thomas will too. I can do it.

Done, and now it builds (I've limited the test to native cc compiler for
now). But it doesn't pass two regression tests, float8 and alter_table.

The diffs seem to me non-trivial, I've attached the results.

Any idea?

Good point. Thomas, can you take that on?

No, at least not now. I'm not able to communicate reliably with the

OK, Tom will be away next week, and Thomas will too. I can do it.

failing, but I'm not 100% if they haven't already been solved. -sc

Can you check it against the geometry-bsd[i]-precision.out file?

(depending on whether you've updated since the weekend).

If it matches, we need to update the resultmap.

That is odd. main.c itself certainly has not changed.

Done, and now it builds (I've limited the test to native cc compiler for
now). But it doesn't pass two regression tests, float8 and alter_table.
The diffs seem to me non-trivial, I've attached the results.

The float8 diff appears to be because new test cases were added to
float8.sql, but not all the float8 output variants were updated to match
:-(. I will take care of that.

The alter_table diff is clearly indicative of a bug. Can you set a
breakpoint and discover exactly where calloc is blowing up? (For lack
of a better idea, I'm going to guess that calloc rejects a zero argument
on your platform.)

I said:

breakpoint and discover exactly where calloc is blowing up?

Never mind, I see it: psql is doing calloc(0) when presented with a
table of zero columns. Surprising you're the first to try it on a
platform where that returns NULL.

I've committed fixes for the other issues too, so CVS tip should now
pass cleanly on your platform.

Hmm. Evidently you now have support for minus-zero. It looks like we
have an updated comparison file for that case for FreeBSD, but it's only
being applied for FreeBSD 4.7:

geometry/i.86-.*-freebsd4.7=geometry-bsd-precision
geometry/i.86-.*-freebsd=geometry-positive-zeros-bsd
geometry/alpha.*-freebsd=geometry-positive-zeros

Or at least it's *trying* to apply it for 4.7 --- as near as I can tell
without testing, the above scrap of resultmap code is wrong because both
of the i.86 lines will match on FreeBSD 4.7, and I think the pg_regress
coding will take the last match. Larry, did you actually test the
CVS-tip resultmap to make sure it picks the right comparison file on
your box?

We could possibly do

geometry/i.86-.*-freebsd=geometry-positive-zeros-bsd
geometry/i.86-.*-freebsd4.7=geometry-bsd-precision
geometry/i.86-.*-freebsd5=geometry-bsd-precision
geometry/alpha.*-freebsd=geometry-positive-zeros

which is mighty ugly, but I'm hopeful that by the next PG release we'll
have gotten rid of most of the platform-to-platform geometry variants
anyway.

This post is just for closure -- both of the issues below have been
resolved:

On Tue, Oct 29, 2002 at 09:47:35AM -0500, Jason Tishler wrote:

1. Cygwin bison needs to be upgraded from 1.35 to 1.75 (i.e.,

maintainer for this upgrade.

OK. This shouldn't stop a release though I assume, only a build from
CVS.

Yes. Nevertheless, I have posted my request:

http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-10/msg01740.html

http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-announce/2002-10/msg00016.html

2. The following fseeko/ftello ifdef in src/include/pg_config.h.in:

#ifndef HAVE_FSEEKO
#define fseeko(a, b, c) fseek((a), (b), (c))
#define ftello(a) ftell((a))
#endif

conflicts with the following Cygwin /usr/include/stdio.h entries:

int _EXFUN(fseeko, (FILE *, off_t, int));
off_t _EXFUN(ftello, ( FILE *));

Unfortunately, I'm not sure what is the best way to solve this one
yet. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I found a solution to the above which will hopefully find its way into
the next Cygwin release:
