============================================================================


Your name        :    Jaap Boender
Your email address    :    jaapb@kerguelen.org


System Configuration
---------------------
  Architecture (example: Intel Pentium)      : Alpha AXPpci33 (NoName)

  Operating System (example: Linux 2.0.26 ELF)     : NetBSD/alpha 1.4.2

  PostgreSQL version (example: PostgreSQL-7.0):   PostgreSQL-7.0.2

  Compiler used (example:  gcc 2.8.0)        : egcs 1.1.1


Please enter a FULL description of your problem:
------------------------------------------------

Postgres 7.0.2 did not compile on my Alpha with NetBSD 1.4.2 due to
a) the fact that src/backend/main/main.c included the wrong files
b) the TAS implementation was not included.

Please describe a way to repeat the problem.   Please try to provide a
concise reproducible example, if at all possible:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Just get an Alpha, install NetBSD 1.4.2, download source and make it.

If you know how this problem might be fixed, list the solution below:
---------------------------------------------------------------------

A patch for problem a), to be applied to src/backend/main/main.c:

<patch>
*** main.c    Mon Oct  2 15:57:26 2000
--- main.c.orig    Wed Jan 26 06:56:30 2000
***************
*** 15,22 ****
  #include <unistd.h>

  #if defined(__alpha__) && !defined(linux)
! #include <sys/param.h>
! #include <sys/time.h>
  #define ASSEMBLER
  #include <sys/proc.h>
  #undef ASSEMBLER
--- 15,22 ----
  #include <unistd.h>

  #if defined(__alpha__) && !defined(linux)
! #include <sys/sysinfo.h>
! #include "machine/hal_sysinfo.h"
  #define ASSEMBLER
  #include <sys/proc.h>
  #undef ASSEMBLER
</patch>

For problem b), I just removed all #defines from
src/include/storage/s_lock.h until I ended up with this file:

<file>
[initial commentary]
#if !defined(S_LOCK_H)
#define S_LOCK_H

#include "storage/ipc.h"

extern void s_lock_sleep(unsigned spin);

#define TAS(lock) tas(lock)
#define S_UNLOCK(lock) do { __asm__("mb"); *(lock) = 0; } while (0)

static __inline__ int
tas(volatile slock_t *lock)
{
 register slock_t _res;

__asm__("     ldq   $0, %0               \n\
                 bne   $0, 3f           \n\
                 ldq_l $0, %0             \n\
                 bne   $0, 3f           \n\
                 or    $31, 1, $0           \n\
                 stq_c $0, %0                   \n\
                 beq   $0, 2f               \n\
                 bis   $31, $31, %1        \n\
                 mb                                \n\
                 jmp   $31, 4f               \n\
              2: or    $31, 1, $0               \n\
              3: bis   $0, $0, %1           \n\
              4: nop      ": "=m"(*lock), "=r"(_res): :"0");

    return (int) _res;
}

#endif     /* S_LOCK_H */
</file>

This worked. I don't exactly know what is defined and what isn't (I tried
gcc -E, but it didn't quite work the way I expected it to), but my guess is that
HAS_TEST_AND_SET is not defined.
