least, Solaris 2.5.1. We use it in backend/utils/adt/int8.c.
Add a check to configure so that we see if it exists or not, and, if not,
compile in snprintf.c from backend/port, which was taken from, and falls under
the same Berkeley license as us, the FreeBSD libc/stdio ...
in a more readable form. -- I am submitting the following patches
to the June 6, 1998 snapshot of PostgreSQL. These patches implement
a port of PostgreSQL to SCO UnixWare 7, and updates the Univel port
(UnixWare 2.x). The patched files, and the reason
for the patch are:
File Reason for the patch ---------------
---------------------------------------------------------------
src/backend/port/dynloader/unixware.c src/backend/port/dynloader/unixware.h
src/include/port/unixware.h src/makefiles/Makefile.unixware
src/template/unixware
Created for the UNIXWARE port.
src/include/port/univel.h
Modifed this file to work with the changes made to
s_lock.[ch].
src/backend/storage/buffer/s_lock.c src/include/storage/s_lock.h
Moved the UNIXWARE (and Univel) tas() function from
s_lock.c to s_lock.h. The UnixWare compiler asm
construct is treated as a macro and needs to be in
the s_lock.h file. I also reworked the tas()
function to correct some errors in the code.
src/include/version.h.in
The use of the ## operator with quoted strings in
the VERSION macro caused problems with the UnixWare
C compiler. I removed the ## operators since they
were not needed in this case. The macro expands
into a sequence of quoted strings that will be
concatenated by any ANSI C compiler.
src/config.guess
This script was modified to recognize SCO UnixWare
7.
src/configure src/configure.in
The configure script was modified to recognize SCO
UnixWare 7.

requires manual editing of src/backend/port/getrusage.c, because
its substitute version of getrusage is #if'd out.
There is no good reason for that, because configure won't even
include the file into the Makefile unless the platform hasn't got
getrusage. Furthermore, we only have one working substitute version
of getrusage --- the alleged HPUX syscall-based code doesn't work.
(It causes a coredump because the syscall returns a struct rusage
that's much larger than the stub struct defined in
src/include/rusagestub.h.) The times()-based emulation works fine
on HPUX, however.
I propose, therefore, that getrusage.c should just unconditionally
compile the times-based version, and rely on configure to include
the file only if needed. This will be one less manual configuration
step on all platforms that need this code.
Patch attached.
Tom Lane.
Attached you'll find a (big) patch that fixes make dep and make
depend in all Makefiles where I found it to be appropriate.
It also removes the dependency in Makefile.global for NAMEDATALEN
and OIDNAMELEN by making backend/catalog/genbki.sh and bin/initdb/initdb.sh
a little smarter.
This no longer requires initdb.sh that is turned into initdb with
a sed script when installing Postgres, hence initdb.sh should be
renamed to initdb (after the patch has been applied :-) )
This patch is against the 6.3 sources, as it took a while to
complete.
Please review and apply,
Cheers,

The following patches will allow postgreSQL 6.3 to compile and run on a
UNIXWARE 2.1.2 system with the native C compiler with the following library
change:
The alloca function must be copied from the libucb.a archive and added
to the libgen.a archive.
Also, the GNU flex program is needed to successfully build postgreSQL.
Ok. I have decided to use:
#if defined(sun) && if defined(sparc) && !defined(__svr4)
instead of defined(sunos4). interfaces/libpq/libpq-fe.h and
include/c.h have been modified(see included patches).
Another porblems I have found are:
o SunOS lacks strtoul(). to fix this I stole strtoul.c from FreeBSD
and place it under backend/port. necessary modifications have been
also made to backend/port/Makefile.in, include/config.h.in and
configure.in (see included patches).
dgux 5.4R4.11
Missing port-protos.h (not needed, I think). Wants dld.h. Should
really use the system dl stuff (like i386_solaris). Needs to include
<netinet/in.h> before <arpa/inet.h>. Here are some patches...
Apart from this Makefile hack, all I've done is to make dynamically
loaded code modules fail properly (as was already done for __mips__,
although I think this is too loose: I believe NetBSD for the pmax can
do dynamic linking), and to add test-and-set lock handling. As Bruce
suggested, this is done in a maximally efficient inlined way: I was
not aware that this code was so important, speed-wise.
The attached patches will allow postgreSQL to compile successfully on SCO
UNIXWARE 2.1.x. The patches fix the following problems:
1. Configure did not properly recognize the UNIXWARE system as needing the
univel port. It used the sys4 port.
2. Configure did not properly process the CC flag in the template file.
3. There was no working test and set locking implementation for the native
UNIXWARE compiler.
4. The test and set locking used for Intel X86 that was selected by defining
NEED_I386_TAS_ASM could fail in a multi-processor environment.
5. The makefiles for libpq and libpgtcl did not make a shared library for
the univel port.
