  1. Time for RC1 soon?

    Bruce Momjian <pgman@candle.pha.pa.us> — 2002-10-25T20:18:22Z

    We are putting out beta3 today or tomorrow.  It seems we are ready to
    start considering an RC1 date, perhaps next Friday, November 1?

    Seems like someone ought to issue a call for port reports.  The
    "supported platforms" list hasn't been touched ...

    No, at least not now. I'm not able to communicate reliably with the 
    mailing lists, and so can not coordinate anything :( Not sure when or if 
    that will be resolved, but I'll be out of town next week so...

    Yes, I have noticed this happening at random times.

    OK, Tom will be away next week, and Thomas will too. I can do it. 
    Folks. start sending in those plaform reports, OS name and version
    number please.
    
    The current platform list is:

    I get the following on Linux/Sparc, Debian 3.0:
    
    make[3]: Entering directory `/home/doug/src/pgsql/src/backend/utils/mb/conversion_procs/ascii_and_mic'
    gcc -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -fpic

    make: *** [all] Error 2
    
    My gcc version:
    
    doug@varsoon:~/src/pgsql$ gcc -v
    Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-linux/2.95.4/specs
    gcc version 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)
    
    This is CVS tip as of about 11:30 EST Saturday.
    
    Looking into it, we have in ascii_and_mic.c:
    
    PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1(ascii_to_mic) 
    PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1(mic_to_ascii) 
    
    Putting a semicolon after each such line fixes that compile, but there
    are other files under conversion_procs with the same problem.  Is my
    gcc not expanding the macro properly?

    That should be fixed as of now.

    The geometry one looked like rounding issues.
    
    Did you run out of space on where the data directory was mounted?
    At least some of the other errors were complaining about no space
    left on device.

    After realizing that my disk had filled up (thanks Alvaro) I reran the
    tests and 'geometry' is the only failure.  I'm guessing this is due to
    floating-point differences?  If this is OK, then
    
    Linux/Sparc (Debian 3.0) 
    
    is a PASS.

    being out of town next week, so is Tom Lane, so I don't feel tha that is a

    I talked to him about that and we both feel this week while he is away
    will be pretty quiet and the only major thing left is making sure our
    docs are ready and we have enough platform reports.
    
    If we can go RC1 soon, we will keep beta to 2 months, which I think is
    acceptable.
    
    Tom returns Wednesday so let's see how we are this Thursday/Friday.

    Unless we see serious problem reports in the next week, I think RC1 on
    Friday is reasonable.  (That assumes people get the platform tests
    done, of course.)

    Here's the regression.diffs file from Mac OS X 10.2.1 (Jaguar). It

    I thought the join was part of the timezone change, but I see now that
    it is separate.  I will fix it by adding ORDER BY.

    OK, I have updated the join regression test to add ORDER BY in the
    queries Irix differed.  Ian, would you retest the CVS version of
    PostgreSQL to see if all the regression tests pass now?

    For confirmation: IIRC CVS now requires the latest Bison (1.75)?
    (The Irix machine has 1.35).

    I should have mentioned that this is for beta 3; I don't have the
    necessary bison installed to compile from CVS.
    
    Solaris 8, 2xUltraSPARC-II 400 MHz, 3G RAM, gcc 3.2 also passes.
    
    The details I'll put in the regression database.

    Sorry, Ian, here is the patch I applied.  You can apply this to whatever
    version you are using and test Irix with that, rather than having to
    grab CVS.

    Strange.  I just got report from another OSX 10.2.1 user saying
    regression tests passed:
    
    	 10.2.1, Adam Witney  (awitney@sghms.ac.uk>
    
    The proper value seems to be:
    
    	15.3864610140472
    
    or
    
    	15.3864610140473
    
    in ./expected/geometry-powerpc-darwin.out.  Which is it, folks?

    Bruce,
    
    Not sure. I know Tom Lane ran a check on 10.1.x and didn't have any 
    errors, so I figured the differences I saw reflected changes made by 
    Apple between 10.1.x and 10.2.x. Then, I was surprised when I saw Adam's 
    report, so I thought perhaps he was running on a PPC G3 and there were 
    differences between G3 and G4 floating point handling (I had run the 
    original regression tests on a PowerBook G4/400 MHz). So, I ran the same 
    exact scenario on my aging iMac (G3/266 Mhz). Those results corroborated 
    my original test (geometry failed; horology cleared up, though, as 
    expected). So, something is different between Adam's system and the two 
    I have easy access to. I have confirmed that both my systems are running 
    10.2.1. Similarly, the tests were both run on 7.3b3 from the full 
    tarball on ftp.us.postgresql.org. The new iMac G3 regression.diffs 
    output is immediately below. Regardless, it would appear that Mac OS X 
    10.2.x is well supported.

    The existing geometry file is exactly correct on my laptop (Powerbook
    G3 using OSX 10.1).  I am not sure whether the differences some users
    have reported are due to hardware or OS version differences.  We need
    to figure that out and refine the resultmap, not just change the
    existing file.

    I don't have a lot of experience with this stuff, but let me know what to
    try and I will try it. (Using a Powerbook G4 OSX 10.2.1)

    I noticed that the supported platforms listed 7.2 for linux alpha but
    with yesterdays date. I figured it was just a typo, but thought I would
    try to compile myself just to be sure, but I received 4 failures: 
    horology,geometry,opr_sanity, and misc 
    
    This is on alpha running debian 3 linux 
    uname -a = Linux usf-cf-alpha-linux-1 2.2.20 #2 Wed Mar 20 19:57:28 EST
    2002 alpha unknown 
    
    regression output can be seen at:
    http://phppgadmin.sourceforge.net/regression.diffs
    http://phppgadmin.sourceforge.net/regression.out 
    
    my alpha history is spotty at best, perhaps someone else can help me
    interpret things.

    I think on Linux Alpha and Sparc alot has to do with the gcc compiler
    version.
    My system is handupgraded from Redhat 6.2, kernel 2.2.x to be using a
    much newer kernel (2.4.X-aaX).
    But it's been working flawlessly with almost any kernel from 2.2 up to
    where i am now, using postgresql from the 6.x days.
    
    What compiler version are you using?
    Is this Debian release a stable branch?

    hmm... I'm not an admin on the box, this is one of the boxes from the
    sourceforge compile farm. /proc/version reports this as Debian
    prerelease, and kernel version reports 2.2.20.

    OK, I have carried out make check with the updated tests but
    got FAILED on the same four tests (abstime, tinterval, horology, join).
    
    The failures are subtly different (see here for new regression diff):
    
    http://home.akademie.de/~IBarwick/IRIX_65_1.regression.diffs
    
    Having looked at them again I see the following:
    - in horology the timestamp tests seem to have succeeded (presumably
      the previous failures were triggered by the change to winter time);
    - the tests which are still failing in abstime, tinterval and horology
      all refer to dates before 1970, where AFAICS they are all out by one hour;
      possibly this explanation?:
    
    "Some systems using older time zone libraries fail to apply daylight-saving 
    corrections to dates before 1970, causing pre-1970 PDT times to be displayed 
    in PST instead. This will result in localized differences in the test 
    results."
    
      (cf. http://www.postgresql.org/idocs/index.php?regress-evaluation.html );
    
    - the join tests are failing slightly differently; I would suggest that
      this is because the ORDER BY is still not explicit enough, and for what
      ever reason under IRIX the undefined result row orderings are in a different
      order to every other platform...
    
      e.g. with this statement:
    
    SELECT '' AS "xxx", J1_TBL.i, j, t, k
      FROM J1_TBL LEFT OUTER JOIN J2_TBL USING (i)
      ORDER BY i;
    
     xxx | i | j |   t   | k  
    -----+---+---+-------+----
         | 0 |   | zero  |   
         | 1 | 4 | one   | -1
         | 2 | 3 | two   |  2
         | 2 | 3 | two   |  4
         | 3 | 2 | three | -3
         | 4 | 1 | four  |   
         | 5 | 0 | five  | -5
         | 5 | 0 | five  | -5
         | 6 | 6 | six   |   
         | 7 | 7 | seven |   
         | 8 | 8 | eight |   
         |   | 0 | zero  |   
         |   |   | null  |   
    (13 rows)
    
      the order of the last two rows is not defined. The expected order
      according to the regression tests is:
    
         |   |   | null  |
         |   | 0 | zero  |

    I have reviewed your diff and found that it was either timezone changes
    or join.sql which I have recently fixed.  Can you grab current CVS
    snapshot and try again?

    DOESN'T WORK on Digital Unix/Tru64 4.0g, with both cc or gcc compiler.
    
    Using Compaq C V6.4-216 (dtk) on Digital UNIX V4.0G (Rev. 1530)
    Compiler Driver V6.4-013 (dtk) cc Driver:
    
    make[3]: Entering directory
    `/usr/local/src/postgresql-7.3b3/src/backend/main'
    cc -std -O4 -Olimit 2000 -I../../../src/include -I/usr/local/include  -c
    -o main.o main.c
    cc: Error: main.c, line 83: In this statement, "errno" is not declared.
    (undeclared)

    argv[0], strerror(errno));

    same with GCC 2.95.1.
    
    make[1]: Entering directory
    `/usr/local/src/postgresql-7.3b3-gcc/src/backend/main'
    gcc  -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations

    main.c: In function `main':
    main.c:83: `errno' undeclared (first use in this function)
    make[1]: *** [main.o] Error 1
    
    So, errno function is undefined.
    
    This is quite strange, because that section hasn't been changed in the
    last few months. It's activated from two different #if: one is 
    #if defined(__alpha)
    other is 
    #if defined(NOFIXADE) || defined(NOPRINTADE)
    Maybe is the setting of NOFIXADE or NOPRINTADE to be changed upstream?

    Evidently main.c needs "#include <errno.h>" added.  Please add that and
    see if you get any further.  There might be other files with the same
    problem?

    Done, and now it builds (I've limited the test to native cc compiler for
    now). But it doesn't pass two regression tests, float8 and alter_table.
    
    The diffs seem to me non-trivial, I've attached the results.
    
    Any idea?

    Can you check it against the geometry-bsd[i]-precision.out file? 
    
    (depending on whether you've updated since the weekend). 
    
    If it matches, we need to update the resultmap.

    That is odd.  main.c itself certainly has not changed.

    The float8 diff appears to be because new test cases were added to
    float8.sql, but not all the float8 output variants were updated to match
    :-(.  I will take care of that.
    
    The alter_table diff is clearly indicative of a bug.  Can you set a
    breakpoint and discover exactly where calloc is blowing up?  (For lack
    of a better idea, I'm going to guess that calloc rejects a zero argument
    on your platform.)

    Never mind, I see it: psql is doing calloc(0) when presented with a
    table of zero columns.  Surprising you're the first to try it on a
    platform where that returns NULL.
    
    I've committed fixes for the other issues too, so CVS tip should now
    pass cleanly on your platform.

    Hmm.  Evidently you now have support for minus-zero.  It looks like we
    have an updated comparison file for that case for FreeBSD, but it's only
    being applied for FreeBSD 4.7:
    
    geometry/i.86-.*-freebsd4.7=geometry-bsd-precision
    geometry/i.86-.*-freebsd=geometry-positive-zeros-bsd
    geometry/alpha.*-freebsd=geometry-positive-zeros
    
    Or at least it's *trying* to apply it for 4.7 --- as near as I can tell
    without testing, the above scrap of resultmap code is wrong because both
    of the i.86 lines will match on FreeBSD 4.7, and I think the pg_regress
    coding will take the last match.  Larry, did you actually test the
    CVS-tip resultmap to make sure it picks the right comparison file on
    your box?
    
    We could possibly do
    
    geometry/i.86-.*-freebsd=geometry-positive-zeros-bsd
    geometry/i.86-.*-freebsd4.7=geometry-bsd-precision
    geometry/i.86-.*-freebsd5=geometry-bsd-precision
    geometry/alpha.*-freebsd=geometry-positive-zeros
    
    which is mighty ugly, but I'm hopeful that by the next PG release we'll
    have gotten rid of most of the platform-to-platform geometry variants
    anyway.

    Okay, I've updated the CVS tip to look like this:
    
    geometry/i.86-.*-freebsd=geometry-positive-zeros-bsd
    geometry/i.86-.*-freebsd4.7=geometry-bsd-precision
    geometry/i.86-.*-freebsd5=geometry-bsd-precision
    geometry/alpha.*-freebsd=geometry-positive-zeros
    
    Sean, would you verify this works for you?

    I've built the snapshot from CVS tip and now the regression tests pass
    with both GCC 2.95.1 and Compaq C V6.4-216 (dtk) on 
    Digital UNIX V4.0G (Rev. 1530).
    
    Thank you very much for your help!

    It does, thank you.  I've just updated the -devel port to 7.3b4,
    hopefully the mirrors will pick up the bits soon.  -sc

    Please note that you have an entry for Digital Unix and one for Compaq
    Tru64 while in fact they are the same OS that went through a whirlwind
    of name changes. Don't know if official name should be now "HP Tru64" or
    some other...
