Michael Paquier	9aeff092c0	Revert "Rename contrib module basic_archive to basic_wal_module" ... This reverts commit 0ad3c60, as per feedback from Tom Lane, Robert Haas and Andres Freund. The new name used for the module had little support. This moves back to basic_archive as module name, and we will likely use that as template for recovery modules, as well.

Michael Paquier	0ad3c60caf	Rename contrib module basic_archive to basic_wal_module ... This rename is in preparation for the introduction of recovery modules, where basic_wal_module will be used as a base template for the set of callbacks introduced. The former name did not really reflect all that. Author: Nathan Bossart Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20221227192449.GA3672473@nathanxps13	3 years ago

Andres Freund	e6927270cd	meson: Add initial version of meson based build system ... Autoconf is showing its age, fewer and fewer contributors know how to wrangle it. Recursive make has a lot of hard to resolve dependency issues and slow incremental rebuilds. Our home-grown MSVC build system is hard to maintain for developers not using Windows and runs tests serially. While these and other issues could individually be addressed with incremental improvements, together they seem best addressed by moving to a more modern build system. After evaluating different build system choices, we chose to use meson, to a good degree based on the adoption by other open source projects. We decided that it's more realistic to commit a relatively early version of the new build system and mature it in tree. This commit adds an initial version of a meson based build system. It supports building postgres on at least AIX, FreeBSD, Linux, macOS, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris and Windows (however only gcc is supported on aix, solaris). For Windows/MSVC postgres can now be built with ninja (faster, particularly for incremental builds) and msbuild (supporting the visual studio GUI, but building slower). Several aspects (e.g. Windows rc file generation, PGXS compatibility, LLVM bitcode generation, documentation adjustments) are done in subsequent commits requiring further review. Other aspects (e.g. not installing test-only extensions) are not yet addressed. When building on Windows with msbuild, builds are slower when using a visual studio version older than 2019, because those versions do not support MultiToolTask, required by meson for intra-target parallelism. The plan is to remove the MSVC specific build system in src/tools/msvc soon after reaching feature parity. However, we're not planning to remove the autoconf/make build system in the near future. Likely we're going to keep at least the parts required for PGXS to keep working around until all supported versions build with meson. Some initial help for postgres developers is at https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Meson With contributions from Thomas Munro, John Naylor, Stone Tickle and others.
