RE:PostgreSQL 11 beta1 on AIX 7.2 : 2 failures in 32bit mode

Hi Michael,

We have used GCC, version 8.1 .
We also can build it with XLC, though I did not tried yet with v11beta1.

I know about the 2 threads you have provided.
Today, with our own patches, we are able to compile and run 100% OK PostgreSQL v10 or v9 on AIX 6 or AIX7, with GCC and XLC.
(I'll submit these patches for AIX once we have run the stress/perf campaign we plan to do on AIX & Linux on P9)

I'm using nearly exactly the same .spec and .patch files for v10.4 and v11beta1.
However, I see that there are new files dealing with json coming with v11beta1:
# find $BUILD/postgresql-11beta1/64bit/ -name "json*" | wc
72 72 7575
# find $BUILD/postgresql-10.4/64bit/ -name "json*" | wc
33 33 3180

Build/Tests in 64bit is 100% OK with v11beta1.

Regards

Cordialement,

Tony, was the compiler used gcc or xlc? Support for xlc 13 still needs
some work. Here are two other, similar threads:
