Description
dnsdist is a highly DNS-, DoS- and abuse-aware loadbalancer. Its goal in life is to route traffic to the best server, delivering top performance to legitimate users while shunting or blocking abusive traffic.
dnsdist is dynamic, its configuration language is Lua and it can be can be changed at runtime, and its statistics can be queried from a console-like interface or an HTTP API.
dnsdist is used to protect and optimize the DNS traffic of hundreds of millions of internet subscribers.
* IPv4, UDP/TCP * IPv6, UDP/TCP, 100% compliant * Remotely pollable statistics for real time graphing * High performance * SNMP statistics bridge (read only) * Dynamically route queries to backend servers * Advanced anti-spoofing measures * Reconfiguration without downtime * Kernel based filtering of harmful traffic, rejecting packets at 'line speed' * Internal Lua-based scripted answer generation * Question interception, answer reconditioning, NXDOMAIN redirection
- Including 'block lists' and security measures * Built-in memory efficient cache for increased performance * Ability to continue serving data from cache for non-responsive backends * Smart rate limiting per user, per subnet, per domain * Capable of writing dynamic rules to block harmful traffic

Baptiste Daroussin | databases/lmdb: allow to install both 0.x and 1.x together LMDB 1.0 and the legacy 0.9 ABI cannot be mixed, the datanase format are
incompatibles as well.
Rename or relocate everything databases/lmdb0 installs so that it no
longer overlaps with databases/lmdb:
- the utilities are now mdb_copy0, mdb_dump0, mdb_load0 and mdb_stat0
- the header is include/lmdb0/lmdb.h
- the linker name is liblmdb0.so, the shared object keeps its ABI name
liblmdb.so.0 so already linked programs are unaffected
- the pkg-config file is lmdb0.pc
A compatibility prefix holding the previous layout is also installed
under ${PREFIX}/lmdb0/ (include/, lib/ and libdata/pkgconfig/) so that
build systems which expect to find lmdb.h and -llmdb relative to a
single directory only need a path change.
Now all ports should migrate to lmdb 1.X and use the lmdb 0.9 port to ease
