Thread: UnixWare chokes
Hi all,
Trying to build pg on unixware...hacked configure as follows
to create a Makefile:
change TEMPLATE=template/`uname -s | tr A-Z a-z`
to TEMPLATE=template/univel
Downloaded flex-2.3pl7.tar.Z from Freebird site, installed...
Downloaded bison-1.14.pkg.tar.Z and installed.
And now - after a multitude of warnings (many more than with FreeBSD
or Linux) gmake barfs with:
Undefined symbol alloca in file bootstrap/SUBSYS.o
Anyone have a fix handy? Or a set of UnixWare binaries? ;-)
Many thanks!
Tom

Strange it would do that on Unixware. You would think bison would know if alloca was available, and only use it if it was.

Bruce - I am not sure what I am looking for...so here is the stdout from
running nm (tail make.log follows the nm output).
Thanks for taking the time, I know you're rather busy.

It is this line:
[56] | 0| 0|NOTY |GLOB |0 |UNDEF |alloca
Your bison is outputting code that can not be resolved by the libraries
you supplied. Try doing 'nm' in /usr/lib, and see if you can find a
reference to alloca that does not have "UNDEF" next to it.

Hi. Negative...not in /usr/lib, /opt/lib or /lib *but* I found
one entry in my Berkeley libraries (/usr/ucblib):
Symbols from libucb.a[alloca.o]:
[1] | 0| 0|FILE |LOCL |0 |ABS |alloca.s
[4] | 0| 0|NOTY |GLOB |0 |1 |alloca

Bruce - I see the calls in /opt/lib/bison.simple to alloca...
can I make a careful incision anywhere? ;-)

Usually configure of bison checks for alloca and makes the proper
compile checks. My guess is that either bison automatically uses -lucb
on its configure checks, or you got a bison precompile binary where
someone used -lucb. I don't think bison requires it, but your's does.
Alloca can not easily be simulated.

NAME
alloca - memory allocator
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdlib.h>
void *
alloca(size_t size);
DESCRIPTION
The alloca() function allocates size bytes of space in the stack
frame of
the caller. This temporary space is automatically freed on return.
RETURN VALUES
The alloca() function returns a pointer to the beginning of the
allocated
space. If the allocation failed, a NULL pointer is returned.
SEE ALSO
brk(2), pagesize(2) calloc(3), malloc(3), realloc(3),

Bruce -
gmake all
produces seemingly benign output:
gmake -C lextest all
gmake[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/pgsql/postgresql-6.3.2/src/lextest'
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/pgsql/postgresql-6.3.2/src/lextest'
But of course, make fails...so trying to force the issue with:
cd /usr/src/pgsql/postgresql-6.3.2/src/backend
cc -o postgres access/SUBSYS.o bootstrap/SUBSYS.o catalog/SUBSYS.o
commands/SUBSYS.o executor/SUBSYS.o lib/SUBSYS.o libpq/SUBSYS.o
main/SUBSYS.o nodes/SUBSYS.o optimizer/SUBSYS.o parser/SUBSYS.o
port/SUBSYS.o postmaster/SUBSYS.o regex/SUBSYS.o rewrite/SUBSYS.o
storage/SUBSYS.o tcop/SUBSYS.o utils/SUBSYS.o ../utils/version.o
-lgen -lcrypt -lld -lnsl -lsocket -ldl -lm -ltermcap -lcurses
-lc89 -lc89 -Wl,-Bexport -lucb
produces:
UX:ld: ERROR: fatal error: library not found: -lucb
I've tried different placement of the flag in the cc cmd but the
result is the same. Ouch. I've re-read the ld man page but see
no reference to calling the beserkely libs. At a loss (again).

Bruce - by commenting ecpg out of the interfaces Makefile I got
all of Postgres to compile and have successfully run initdb...
As soon as I can resolve the IpcMemory errors I hope to have this
thing going.
Thanks for all of your help,
