Looks like it changed in 3.3: $ git grep -E 'AC_DEFINE.*_POSIX_C_SOURCE' v3.2 v3.3.0 v3.2:configure.in: AC_DEFINE(_POSIX_C_SOURCE, 200112L, Define to activate features from IEEE Stds 1003.1-2001) v3.3.0:configure.ac: AC_DEFINE(_POSIX_C_SOURCE, 200809L, Define to activate features from IEEE Stds 1003.1-2008) I'm not sure we need to care a lot about a build with python 3.3 triggering a bunch of warnings. Personally I'd just bump the python requirements to well above it - the last 3.2 release was Oct. 12, 2014. Official EOL date: Ver Last Release EOL Date 3.2 2014-10-11 2016-02-20 3.3 2017-09-19 2017-09-29 From 3.4 on there's just an official last release: 3.4 2019-03-18 3.5 2020-09-05 3.6 2021-09-04 3.7 2023-06-?? > > Solaris and AIX are the ones missing. > > I guess I'll test them manually.

I found plenty problems on AIX, but all independent of _POSIX_C_SOURCE. Both autoconf and meson builds seem to need externally specified -D_LARGE_FILES=1 to build successfully when using plpython, otherwise we end up with conflicting signatures with lseek. I see that Noah has that in his buildfarm config. ISTM that we should just move that into our build specs. To get 64 bit autoconf to link plpython3.so correctly, I needed to add to manually add -lpthread: ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .pthread_init ... I suspect Noah might not hit this, because one of the dependencies he has enabled already adds it to the backend LDFLAGS. Also for autoconf, I needed to link $prefix/lib/python3.11/config-3.11/libpython3.11.a to $prefix/lib/libpython3.11.a That might be a python version difference or be related to building python with --enable-shared - but I see saw other problems without --enable-shared. I ran out of energy to test on aix with xlc, I spent way more time on this than I have already. I'll pick it up later. I also tested 64bit solaris. No relevant warnings (lots of other warnings though), tests pass, with both acc and gcc. > >> Anyway, I'm still of the opinion that what a11cf433413 tried to do > >> was the best available fix, and we need to do whatever we have to do > >> to plpython's headers to reinstate that coding rule. > > > You think it's not a viable path to just remove the _POSIX_C_SOURCE, > > _XOPEN_SOURCE undefines? > > I think at the least that will result in warnings on some platforms, > and at the worst in actual build problems.

I tested nearly all OSs that we support, with the exception of DragonFlyBSD and Illumos, which both are very similar to tested operating systems. > Nice idea.

I guess I'll push that part first, given that we have agreement how it should look like. Greetings, Andres Freund
