llvm

Versions 18.0.x, 17.0.x, 16.0.x, 15.0.x, 14.0.x, or 13.0.x of llvm is required to run SQL with runtime compilation (just-in-time compilation).

Install the package that contains libLLVM-18.so, libLLVM-17.so, llibLLVM-16.so,llibLLVM-15.so, llibLLVM-14.so, or libLLVM-13.so.

For example, version 17.0.x of "llvm-libs" published with Application Streams includes libLLVM-17.so.

By default, version 17.0.x is used.

If you use a version other than 17.0.x, specify the version you want to use in the jit_provider parameter in postgresql.conf.

For example, use llvmjit-vsn16 when using version 16.0.x. Fujitsu Enterprise Postgres uses runtime compilation by default.If you do not want to use runtime compilation, turn off the jit parameter in postgresql.conf.You do not need to install llvm if you turn off the jit parameter.

If the jit parameter is on and llvm is not installed, an error may occur during SQL execution. For more information about runtime compilation, see "Just-in-Time Compilation (JIT)" in "PostgreSQL Documentation".

llvm

Versions 19.0.x, 18.0.x, 17.0.x, 16.0.x, or 15.0.x of llvm is required to run SQL with runtime compilation (just-in-time compilation).

Install the package that contains libLLVM-19.so, llibLLVM-18.so, libLLVM-17.so, llibLLVM-16.so, or llibLLVM-15.so.

For example, version 17.0.x of "llvm-libs " published with Application Streams includes libLLVM-17.so.

By default, version 17.0.x is used.

If you use a version other than 17.0.x, specify the version you want to use in the jit_provider parameter in postgresql.conf.

For example, use llvmjit-vsn16 when using version 16.0.x.

Fujitsu Enterprise Postgres is configured to use runtime compilation by default. If you do not want to use runtime compilation, turn off the jit parameter in postgresql.conf. If you turn off the jit parameter, you do not need to install llvm.

If the jit parameter is on and llvm is not installed, an error may occur during SQL execution. For more information about runtime compilation, see "Just-in-Time Compilation (JIT) " in the PostgreSQL Documentation.
