- PostgreSQL has been reported to run successfully on MIPS r8000,
- r10000 (both ip25 and ip27) and r12000(ip35) processors, running
- IRIX 6.5.5m, 6.5.12, 6.5.13, and 6.5.26 with MIPSPro compilers
- version 7.30, 7.3.1.2m, 7.3, and 7.4.4m.

-
- You will need the MIPSPro full ANSI C compiler. There are
- problems trying to build with GCC. It is a known GCC bug (not
- fixed as of version 3.0) related to using functions that return
- certain kinds of structures. This bug affects functions like
- inet_ntoa>, inet_lnaof>, inet_netof>, inet_makeaddr>,
- and semctl>. It is supposed to be fixed by forcing
- code to link those functions with libgcc, but this has not been
- tested yet.
-
-
- It is known that version 7.4.1m of the MIPSPro compiler generates
- incorrect code. The symptom is invalid primary checkpoint
- record when trying to start the database.) Version 7.4.4m
- is OK; the status of intermediate versions is uncertain.
-
-
- There may be a compilation problem like the following:
-
-cc-1020 cc: ERROR File = pqcomm.c, Line = 427
- The identifier "TCP_NODELAY" is undefined.
-
- if (setsockopt(port->sock, IPPROTO_TCP, TCP_NODELAY,
-
- Some versions include TCP definitions
- in sys/xti.h, so it is necessary to
- add #include <sys/xti.h>
- in src/backend/libpq/pqcomm.c> and in
- src/interfaces/libpq/fe-connect.c>. If you encounter
- this, please let us know so we can develop a proper fix.
-
-
- In the regression tests, there might be some low-order-digit
- differences in the geometry tests, depending on which FPU are you
- using. Any other error is cause for suspicion.
