* Makefile: Add more standard targets. Improve shell redirection in GNU
make detection.
* src/backend/access/transam/rmgr.c: Fix incorrect(?) C.
* src/backend/libpq/pqcomm.c (StreamConnection): Work around accept() bug.
* src/include/port/unixware.h: ...with help from here.
* src/backend/nodes/print.c (plannode_type): Remove some "break"s after
"return"s.
* src/backend/tcop/dest.c (DestToFunction): ditto.
* src/backend/nodes/readfuncs.c: Add proper prototypes.
* src/backend/utils/adt/numutils.c (pg_atoi): Cope specially with strtol()
setting EINVAL. This saves us from creating an extra set of regression test
output for the affected systems.
* src/include/storage/s_lock.h (tas): Correct prototype.
* src/interfaces/libpq/fe-connect.c (parseServiceInfo): Don't use variable
as dimension in array definition.
* src/makefiles/Makefile.unixware: Add support for GCC.
* src/template/unixware: same here
* src/test/regress/expected/abstime-solaris-1947.out: Adjust whitespace.
* src/test/regress/expected/horology-solaris-1947.out: Part of this file
was evidently missing.
* src/test/regress/pg_regress.sh: Fix shell. mkdir -p returns non-zero if
the directory exists.
* src/test/regress/resultmap: Add entries for Unixware.
As a result, backend/libpq/pqcomm.c and interfaces/libpq/fe-connect.c
fail to compile.
The <netinet/tcp.h> header needs to be preceded by <netinet/in.h>, at
least on IRIX, Solaris and AIX. The simple configure test fails.
(That header on Linux is idempotent.)
The basic problem is that <netinet/tcp.h> is a BSD header. The
correct header for TCP internals such as TCP_NODELAY on a UNIX system
is <xti.h>. By UNIX I mean UNIX95 (aka XPG4v2 or SUSv1) or later.
The current UNIX standard (UNIX98 aka SUSv2) is available online at
<http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/>.
The fix is to add header support for <xti.h> into configure.in and
config.h.in.
The 2 files which conditionally include <netinet/tcp.h> need also to
conditionally include <xti.h>.

working on the VERY latest version of BeOS. I'm sure there will be
alot of comments, but then if there weren't I'd be disappointed!
Thanks for your continuing efforts to get this into your tree.
Haven't bothered with the new files as they haven't changed.
BTW Peter, the compiler is "broken" about the bool define and so on.
I'm filing a bug report to try and get it addressed. Hopefully then we
can tidy up the code a bit.
I await the replies with interest :)

Update the installation instructions (formerly misnamed "FAQ"), add configure
checks for some headers rather than having users copy stubs manually (ugh!).
Use Autoconf check for exe extension. This also avoids inheriting the value
of $(X) from the environment.
backend functions via backend PQexec(). The SPI interface has long
been our only documented way to do this, and the backend pqexec/portal
code is unused and suffering bit-rot. I'm putting it out of its misery.
we'll get there one day.
Use `cat' to create aclocal.m4, not `aclocal'. Some people don't
have automake installed.
Only run the autoconf rule in the top-level GNUmakefile if the
invoker specified `make configure', don't run it automatically
because of CVS timestamp skew.
Interfaced a lot of the custom tests to the config.cache, in the process
made them separate macros and grouped them out into files. Made naming
adjustments.
Removed a couple of useless/unused configure tests.
Disabled C++ by default. C++ is no more special than Perl, Python, and Tcl.
And it breaks equally often. :(
That means you can now set your options in either or all of $PGDATA/configuration,
some postmaster option (--enable-fsync=off), or set a SET command. The list of
options is in backend/utils/misc/guc.c, documentation will be written post haste.
pg_options is gone, so is that pq_geqo config file. Also removed were backend -K,
-Q, and -T options (no longer applicable, although -d0 does the same as -Q).
Added to configure an --enable-syslog option.
changed all callers from TPRINTF to elog(DEBUG)
subsequent I/O attempts fail cleanly. I'm speculating about failure
scenarios in which we do pq_close, then something in a proc_exit routine
opens a file (re-using that kernel FD number), then something else
fails and tries to write an elog message to the frontend ... message
ends up in opened file, oops. No known examples of this but it seems
like a potential hole.
some platforms --- and I also see that it is documented as not thread-
safe on HPUX and possibly other platforms. No good reason not to just
use IPPROTO_TCP constant from <netinet/in.h> instead.
all platforms, not just SCO. The operation is undefined for Unix-domain
sockets anyway. It seems SCO is not the only platform that complains
instead of treating the call as a no-op.
eliminating some wildly inconsistent coding in various parts of the
system. I set MAXPGPATH = 1024 in config.h.in. If anyone is really
convinced that there ought to be a configure-time test to set the
value, go right ahead ... but I think it's a waste of time.
When drawing up a very simple "text-drawing" of how the negotiation is done,
I realised I had done this last part (fallback) in a very stupid way. Patch
#4 fixes this, and does it in a much better way.
Included is also the simple text-drawing of how the negotiation is done.

can be generated in a buffer and then sent to the frontend in a single
libpq call. This solves problems with NOTICE and ERROR messages generated
in the middle of a data message or COPY OUT operation.
seem to be portable (HPUX doesn't like it, anyway). Also, clean up
StreamConnection(), which was mis-coded to assume that the address
family field is already set when it's called.
Here's another patch for the libpq backend areas. This patch removes all
usage of "FILE *" on the communications channel. It also cleans up the
comments and headers in the pqcomm.c file - a lot of things were either
missing or incorrect. Finally, it removes a couple of unused functions
(leftovers from the time of shared code between the libpq backend and
frontend).
Here is a first patch to cleanup the backend side of libpq.
This patch removes all external dependencies on the "Pfin" and "Pfout" that
are declared in pqcomm.h. These variables are also changed to "static" to
make sure.
Almost all the change is in the handler of the "copy" command - most other
areas of the backend already used the correct functions.
This change will make the way for cleanup of the internal stuff there - now
that all the functions accessing the file descriptors are confined to a
single directory.
fail to consume the rest of the input string, and worse it would write
one more byte than it should into the buffer, probably resulting in coredump.
Fortunately there's a correct implementation next door in pqcomprim.c.
