Re: pthreads issue when compiling 7.4.8 on AIX 5.3

I'm seeing the following errors when compiling postgres 7.4.8 (vanilla)
on AIX 5.3

make[2]: Entering directory `/opt/src/postgresql-7.4.8/src/port'
gcc -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -g -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
- -Wmissing-declarations -I../../src/include -I/opt/dbs/readline/include

make[2]: Leaving directory `/opt/src/postgresql-7.4.8/src/port'

I've looked into pthread.h and it's refereing to pthread_barrier_t,
pthread_barrierattr_t and pthread_spinlock_t. These do not exist in
pthread.h on our 5.1 box. However they are defined in sys/types.h which
is included up near the top pthread.h.

I'm somewhat at a loss about where this could be going wrong.

Configure options follow

./configure --prefix=/opt/dbs/pgsql748-slony105-AIX53-2005-06-13
-
--with-includes=/opt/dbs/readline/include:/opt/dbs/zlib/include:/usr/ccs/include:/opt/freeware/include:/usr/local/include
-
--with-libraries=/opt/dbs/readline/lib:/opt/dbs/zlib/lib:/usr/ccs/lib:/opt/freeware/lib:/usr/local/lib
- --enable-thread-safety --enable-debug --enable-aix64

Note that this binary will need to have slony support which is why the
- --enable-thread-safety. We've had success compiling postgres on AIX 5.1
with identical settings. We're using gcc 3.3.2

The thread_test program fails identically:

- -bash-2.05b$ make
gcc -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -g -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
- -Wmissing-declarations -I../../../src/include
- -I/opt/dbs/readline/include -I/opt/dbs/zlib/include

I would look around in sys/types.h to see if there is a #define that is
preventing the symbol from being exported.

Sure enough, there's some _XOPEN_SOURCE magic around them:

#if (_XOPEN_SOURCE >= 600)
typedef struct
{
#ifdef __64BIT__
long __sp_word[3];
#else
int __sp_word[6];
#endif /* __64BIT__ */
}
pthread_spinlock_t;

typedef struct
{
#ifdef __64BIT__
long __br_word[5];
#else
int __br_word[8];
#endif /* __64BIT__ */
}
pthread_barrier_t;
#endif /* _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 600 */

#if (_XOPEN_SOURCE >= 600)
typedef void *pthread_barrierattr_t;
#endif

So... I went hunting to see where _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined and found it
in standards.h which is included all over the place, including sys/types.h

/* If _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined without a value, or with a value less
* than 500 (UNIX98), then set a value, so that #if statements will
* work properly.
*/
#ifdef _XOPEN_SOURCE
#if ((_XOPEN_SOURCE + 0) < 500)
#undef _XOPEN_SOURCE
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE 1
#endif
#endif

#if defined(_UNIX03) || (_XOPEN_SOURCE==600)
#undef _XOPEN_SOURCE
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE 600
#undef _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED 1
#undef _POSIX_C_SOURCE
#define _POSIX_C_SOURCE 200112L
#undef _THREAD_SAFE
#define _THREAD_SAFE
#endif

#if defined(_UNIX98) || (_XOPEN_SOURCE==500)
#undef _XOPEN_SOURCE
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE 500
#undef _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED 1
#endif

#ifdef _UNIX95
#undef _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED 1
#endif

#if (_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED==1)
#ifndef _XOPEN_SOURCE
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE 1
#endif /* _XOPEN_SOURCE */
#endif /* _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED */

#ifdef _XOPEN_SOURCE
#ifndef _POSIX_SOURCE
#define _POSIX_SOURCE
#endif
#endif

I also made sure that it's not being defined or undefined anywhere else
in the include paths. Then, I tried overriding the _XOPEN_SOURCE
variable on the command line for gcc, but, still no luck.

I'd like to believe I'm missing something really obvious here... :)

I spoke with our IBM sales reps about this and they suggested we upgrade
GCC to 3.3.3 or later. Their PMR for this is PMR25534,077,649 if you
happen to need the reference. We upgraded to 4.0.1 and got it to compile.

We're now seeing the same socket bug as everyone else. Chris Browne
filed a bug report with IBM and has opened PMR29657,500. We hope to see
resolution shortly.
