 Description   

Doing a manual compile on Solaris. After setting the C, CXX, PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH variables I took the following steps:

  1. cd <src_dir>
  2. mkdir bld
  3. cd bld
  4. cmake ..
  5. make VERBOSE=1
Relevant make output

We don't have a Sparc builder at the moment. If you have a fix for this issue, we'll be happy to apply it. Otherwise we'll have to wait until we get a Sparc builder.

Comment by Elena Stepanova [ 2015-11-18 ]

The new SPARC builder doesn't reach this point yet, it fails differently:

Comment by Eliott Spenser [ 2015-11-18 ]

I was able to get past this problem by simply removing the "char *strerror(int num);" lines from the code and re-running make. We do not use the connect engine, so I can not vouch for its functionality after my changes - but it got me where I need to be.

Comment by Predrag Zečević [ 2016-01-27 ]

Hi,

I can confirm this on OpenIndiana (Intel/AMD platform); Using GCC (GCC 3.4 builds w/o problems; GCC 4.7 - 4.9 produce error described here https://lists.launchpad.net/maria-developers/msg04818.html). Tried to compile mariadb-10.1.10... To shorten:

Have built GCC 5.3.0 and that one produced error explained in this ticket:

That problem has been fixed by commenting block = compilation has finished and it has worked!

Best regards.

Comment by Rainer Orth [ 2018-01-25 ]

I'm seeing the same problem when building MariaDB 10.2.12 on Solaris 11.4 Beta
with the bundled gcc 5.5.

I see several possible solutions:

  • Remove the strerror declaration completely. I've no idea why it ever was deemed necessary.
  • Guard the decl with && !(defined(_sun_ && defined(_svr4_)) (ugly as hell).
  • Guard the decl with the result of a cmake test for strerror declaration, like !HAVE_DECL_STRERROR (or however it is called).
Comment by Sergei Golubchik [ 2018-01-27 ]

I'll try to remove it

Comment by Rainer Orth [ 2023-12-20 ]

I've just tried to build MariaDB 10.11.6 on Solaris 11.4/x86 with the bundled
GCC 13.2 and the issue still exists almost 6 years later ;-(

Comment by Sergei Golubchik [ 2024-01-03 ]

We don't have Solaris in our CI (still). If you'll provide a patch (PR or attached to this MDEV or even in a comment, whatever) we can apply it. We cannot fix it otherwise.

Comment by Rainer Orth [ 2024-01-09 ]

We do run `mariadbd` on Solaris 11.4, but I cannot justify providing a Solaris buildbot myself. That said, I'll provide patches for all the issues I've found/reported so 11.4 builds cleanly.

For the case at hand, while there are a large number of uses of `strerror` in the codebase, the local declaration in `storage/connect/tabvct.cpp` is the only one. Given that none is needed elsewhere, I conclude that this instance can simply be removed.

Tested on `amd64-pc-solaris2.11` and `x86_64-pc-linux-gnu`. MDEV-8941-strerror.patch

Thanks - created https://github.com/MariaDB/server/pull/2988 from this.
