2022-12-07autoconf: Move export_dynamic determination to configureAndres Freund
Previously export_dynamic was set in src/makefiles/Makefile.$port. For solaris this required exporting with_gnu_ld. The determination of with_gnu_ld would be nontrivial to copy for meson PGXS compatibility. It's also nice to delete libtool.m4. This uses -Wl,--export-dynamic on all platforms, previously all platforms but FreeBSD used -Wl,-E. The likelihood of a name conflict seems lower with the longer spelling.

2022-10-07autoconf: Rely on ar supporting index creationAndres Freund
This way we don't need RANLIB anymore, making it a bit simpler for the meson build to generate Makefile.global for PGXS compatibility. FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, the only platforms where we didn't use AROPT=crs, all have supported the 's' option for a long time. On macOS we ran ranlib after installing a static library. This was added a long time ago, in 58ad65ec2def. I cannot reproduce an issue in more recent macOS versions. This is removed now. Based on discussion with Tom, I left the 'touch' at the end of static libraries generation, added in 826eff57c4c, in place. While it looks like current versions of Apple's ar/ranlib don't need it, it was needed not too long ago.

2022-03-25Refactor DLSUFFIX handlingPeter Eisentraut
Move DLSUFFIX from makefiles into header files for all platforms. Move the DLSUFFIX assignment from src/makefiles/ to src/templates/, have configure read it, and then substitute it into Makefile.global and pg_config.h. This avoids the need for all makefile rules that need it to locally set CPPFLAGS. It also resolves an inconsistent setup between the two Windows build systems.

2019-10-21Select CFLAGS_SL at configure time, not in platform-specific Makefiles.Tom Lane
Move the platform-dependent logic that sets CFLAGS_SL from src/makefiles/Makefile.foo to src/template/foo, so that the value is determined at configure time and thus is available while running configure's tests. On a couple of platforms this might save a few microseconds of build time by eliminating a test that make otherwise has to do over and over. Otherwise it's pretty much a wash for build purposes; in particular, this makes no difference to anyone who might be overriding CFLAGS_SL via a make option. This patch in itself does nothing with the value and thus should not change any behavior, though you'll probably have to re-run configure to get a correctly updated Makefile.global. We'll use the new configure variable in a follow-on patch. Per gripe from Kyotaro Horiguchi. Back-patch to all supported branches, because the follow-on patch is a portability bug fix.

2019-01-02Ensure link commands list *.o files before LDFLAGS.Tom Lane
It's important for link commands to list *.o input files before -l switches for libraries, as library code may not get pulled into the link unless referenced by an earlier command-line entry. This is certainly necessary for static libraries (.a style). Apparently on some platforms it is also necessary for shared libraries, as reported by Donald Dong. We often put -l switches for within-tree libraries into LDFLAGS, meaning that link commands that list *.o files after LDFLAGS are hazardous. Most of our link commands got this right, but a few did not. In particular, places that relied on gmake's default implicit link rule failed, because that puts LDFLAGS first. Fix that by overriding the built-in rule with our own. The implicit link rules in src/makefiles/Makefile.* for single-.o-file shared libraries mostly got this wrong too, so fix them. I also changed the link rules for the backend and a couple of other places for consistency, even though they are not (currently) at risk because they aren't adding any -l switches to LDFLAGS. Arguably, the real problem here is that we're abusing LDFLAGS by putting -l switches in it and we should stop doing that. But changing that would be quite invasive, so I'm not eager to do so. Perhaps this is a candidate for back-patching, but so far it seems that problems can only be exhibited in test code we don't normally build, and at least some of the problems are new in HEAD anyway. So I'll refrain for now. Donald Dong and Tom Lane Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAKABAquXn-BF-vBeRZxhzvPyfMqgGuc74p8BmQZyCFDpyROBJQ@mail.gmail.com
2017-06-01Always use -fPIC, not -fpic, when building shared libraries with gcc.Tom Lane
On some platforms, -fpic fails for sufficiently large shared libraries. We've mostly not hit that boundary yet, but there are some extensions such as Citus and pglogical where it's becoming a problem. A bit of research suggests that the penalty for -fPIC is small, in the single-digit-percentage range --- and there's none at all on popular platforms such as x86_64. So let's just default to -fPIC everywhere and provide one less thing for extension developers to worry about. Per complaint from Christoph Berg. Back-patch to all supported branches. (I did not bother to touch the recently-removed Makefiles for sco and unixware in the back branches, though. We'd have no way to test that it doesn't break anything on those platforms.)

2012-12-18Remove allow_nonpic_in_shlibPeter Eisentraut
This was used in a time when a shared libperl or libpython was difficult to come by. That is obsolete, and the idea behind the flag was never fully portable anyway and will likely fail on more modern CPU architectures.
2010-07-05Split the LDFLAGS make variable into two parts: LDFLAGS is now used forTom Lane
linking both executables and shared libraries, and we add on LDFLAGS_EX when linking executables or LDFLAGS_SL when linking shared libraries. This provides a significantly cleaner way of dealing with link-time switches than the former behavior. Also, make sure that the various platform-specific %.so: %.o rules incorporate LDFLAGS and LDFLAGS_SL; most of them missed that before. (I did not add these variables for the platforms that invoke $(LD) directly, however. It's not clear if we can do that safely, since for the most part we assume these variables use CC command-line syntax.) Per gripe from Aaron Swenson and subsequent investigation.
2010-05-06On Linux, use --enable-new-dtags when specifying -rpath to linker.Tom Lane
This should allow LD_LIBRARY_PATH to work as desired. Per trouble report from Andy Colson.
2008-11-14Set SQL man pages to be section 7 by default, and only transform them toPeter Eisentraut
another section if required by the platform (instead of the old way of building them in section "l" and always transforming them to the platform-specific section). This speeds up the installation on common platforms, and it avoids some funny business with the man page tools and build process.
2008-09-01Synchronize the shared object build rules in Makefile.port with Makefile.shlibPeter Eisentraut
somewhat by adding CFLAGS where the compiler is used and Makefile.shlib already used CFLAGS.

2004-11-19Modify the platform-specific makefiles so that macro 'rpath' is definedTom Lane
in terms of macro 'rpathdir', as I proposed a few weeks ago. In itself this commit shouldn't change the behavior at all, but it opens the door to using special rpaths for the PL shared libraries, as seems to be needed for plperl in particular.

2001-08-29Install the SQL command man pages into a section appropriate for eachPeter Eisentraut
system. Some systems did not understand the 'l' section, and in general it wasn't entirely appropriate. On SCO OpenServer, the man pages won't be installed at all until someone figures out their man system.
2001-08-26VPATH and DESTDIR support for PL/Perl, using the same techniques employedPeter Eisentraut
in interfaces/perl5 a brief while ago. Also, since building PL/Perl without a shared libperl actually works on some platforms we can enable it there to get some development happening. I've only checked off linux right now, but others should be added in the future.

path into executables and shared libraries (-rpath or -R for most). Can be disabled with --disable-rpath, since some binary packaging standards do not like this option.
2000-10-21Move DLSUFFIX, AROPT, and CFLAGS_SL settings from template toPeter Eisentraut
Makefile.port, since they are of no use to configure and much of the library magic happens in Makefile.port anyway. Use __alpha, not __alpha__, since the former is universally available. Remove -DNOFIXADE from the compile command line and put it in the port include file.

1998-04-06Make DESTDIR consistent, and verious Linux cleanups.Bruce Momjian
1998-04-06Hi,Bruce Momjian
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, Jeroen van Vianen
