/*------------------------------------------------------------------------- * * erand48.c * * This file supplies pg_erand48() and related functions, which except * for the names are just like the POSIX-standard erand48() family. * (We don't supply the full set though, only the ones we have found use * for in Postgres. In particular, we do *not* implement lcong48(), so * that there is no need for the multiplier and addend to be variable.) * * We used to test for an operating system version rather than * unconditionally using our own, but (1) some versions of Cygwin have a * buggy erand48() that always returns zero and (2) as of 2011, glibc's * erand48() is strangely coded to be almost-but-not-quite thread-safe, * which doesn't matter for the backend but is important for pgbench. * * Portions Copyright (c) 1996-2021, PostgreSQL Global Development Group * * Portions Copyright (c) 1993 Martin Birgmeier * All rights reserved. * * You may redistribute unmodified or modified versions of this source * code provided that the above copyright notice and this and the * following conditions are retained. * * This software is provided ``as is'', and comes with no warranties * of any kind.
