libpq and ecpg need shared-library-friendly versions of assorted src/port/ and src/common/ modules. Up to now, they got those by symlinking the individual source files and compiling them locally. That's baroque, and a pain to maintain, and it results in some amount of duplicated compile work. It might've made sense when only a couple of files were needed, but the list has grown and grown and grown :-( It makes more sense to have the originating directory build a third variant of libpgport.a/libpgcommon.a containing modules built with $(CFLAGS_SL), and just link that into the shared library. Unused files won't get linked, so the end result should be the same. This patch makes a down payment on that idea by having src/port/ build such a library and making libpq use it. If the buildfarm doesn't expose fatal problems with the approach, I'll extend it to the other cases. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/13022.1538003440@sss.pgh.pa.us |
