Buildfarm member "rover_firefly" has been failing like this since
269e780 went in:
creating template1 database in
/export/home/postgres/HEAD/pgsql.47842/src/test/regress/./tmp_check/data/base/1
... FATAL: could not allocate space for file "pg_xlog/xlogtemp.60072" using
posix_fallocate: Invalid argument
Apparently OmniOS has a version of posix_fallocate that doesn't actually
work, or at least doesn't work on the specific filesystem rover_firefly
is using. The Single Unix Spec says that that is the correct error to
return if the filesystem doesn't provide support:
[EINVAL]
The len argument is less than zero, or the offset argument is less than
zero, or the underlying file system does not support this operation.
I think you'd better rejigger that patch so that it falls through to the
old implementation if posix_fallocate() fails.
