configure can only probe the existence of gcc intrinsics, not how well they're implemented, and unfortunately the answer is sometimes "badly". In particular we've found that multiple compilers fail to implement char-width __sync_lock_test_and_set() correctly on PPC; and even a correct implementation would necessarily be pretty inefficient, since that hardware has only a word-wide primitive to work with. Given the knowledge we've accumulated in s_lock.h, it appears that it's best to rely on int-width TAS operations on most non-Intel architectures. Hence, pick int not char when both are nominally available to us in generic-gcc.h (note that that code is not used for x86[_64]). Back-patch to fix regression test failures on FreeBSD/PPC. Ordinarily back-patching a change like this would be verboten because of ABI breakage. But since pg_atomic_flag is not yet used in any Postgres data structure, there's no ABI to break. It seems safer to back-patch to avoid possible gotchas, if someday we do back-patch something that uses pg_atomic_flag. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/25414.1483076673@sss.pgh.pa.us |

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
