The results of the KNN-search test cases were indeterminate, as they asked the system to sort pairs of points that are exactly equidistant from the query reference point. It's a bit surprising that we've seen no platform-specific failures from this in the buildfarm. Perhaps IEEE-float math is well enough standardized that no such failures will ever occur on supported platforms ... but since this entire regression test has yet to be shipped in any non-alpha release, that seems like an unduly optimistic assumption. Tweak the queries so that the correct output is uniquely defined. (The other queries in this test are also underdetermined; but it looks like they are regurgitating index rows in insertion order, so for the moment assume that that behavior is stable enough.) Per Greg Stark's experiments with VAX. Back-patch to 9.5 where this test script was introduced.
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/.
