If postgres really still doesn't have mips atomics, it should be fixed (which is easy enough for all but archaic mips) so use BROKEN_ON_PLATFORM.

Drop redundant variable setting from postgresql*-server. PGUSER, PGGROUP, and PGHOME are all in mk/defaults/mk.conf. They are also set (?=) in each server Makefile. Worse, PGHOME is set to varying values. However, the versions in defaults prevail. Therefore, remove the extra/confusing settings, leaving this as a user-settable variable with a default. pkg_info -B before and after shows no related changes, so no PKGREVISION++. Pointed out by Richard Palo, and ok adam@. There's a related issue lurking, which is that PGHOME ends up being /usr/pkg/pgsql, which is not under VARBASE, but I'm letting that be because a change would be disruptive.

Changes: This update fixes CVE-2014-0060, in which PostgreSQL did not properly enforce the WITH ADMIN OPTION permission for ROLE management. This update also fixes some issues which affect binary replication and row locking, and can cause recoverable data corruption in some cases. In addition to the above, the following issues are fixed in this release: Fix WAL logging of visibility map change Make sure that GIN indexes log all insertions Get pause_at_recovery_target to pause at correct time Ensure walreceiver sends hot-standby feedback messages on time Prevent timeout interrupts from taking control away from mainline code Eliminate several race conditions Fix some broken HINTs in error messages Prevent server lockup on SSL connection loss Fix two Unicode handling issues Prevent crash on certain subselect syntax Prevent crash on select from zero column table Fix two bugs with LATERAL Fix issue with UNION ALL, partitioning, and updates Ensure that ANALYZE understands domains over ranges Eliminate permissions check when using default tablespace Fix memory leakage in JSON functions Allow extensions with event triggers Distinguish numbers correctly in JSON output Fix permissions for pg_start_backup() and pg_stop_backup() Accept SHIFT_JIS as locale name Fix .* expansion for SQL function variables Prevent infinite loop on some COPY connection failures Several fixes for client issues on Windows Enable building PostgreSQL with Visual Studio 2013 Update time zone files for recent changes

The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released a security update to all current versions of the PostgreSQL database system, including versions 9.2.3, 9.1.8, 9.0.12, 8.4.16, and 8.3.23. This update fixes a denial-of-service (DOS) vulnerability. All users should update their PostgreSQL installations as soon as possible. The security issue fixed in this release, CVE-2013-0255, allows a previously authenticated user to crash the server by calling an internal function with invalid arguments. This issue was discovered by independent security researcher Sumit Soni this week and reported via Secunia SVCRP, and we are grateful for their efforts in making PostgreSQL more secure. Today's update also fixes a performance regression which caused a decrease in throughput when using dynamic queries in stored procedures in version 9.2. Applications which use PL/pgSQL's EXECUTE are strongly affected by this regression and should be updated. Additionally, we have fixed intermittent crashes caused by CREATE/DROP INDEX CONCURRENTLY, and multiple minor issues with replication. This release is expected to be the final update for version 8.3, which is now End-of-Life (EOL). Users of version 8.3 should plan to upgrade to a later version of PostgreSQL immediately. For more information, see our Versioning Policy. This update release also contains fixes for many minor issues discovered and patched by the PostgreSQL community in the last two months, including: * Prevent unnecessary table scans during vacuuming * Prevent spurious cached plan error in PL/pgSQL * Allow sub-SELECTs to be subscripted * Prevent DROP OWNED from dropping databases or tablespaces * Make ECPG use translated messages * Allow PL/Python to use multi-table trigger functions (again) in 9.1 and 9.2 * Fix several activity log management issues on Windows * Prevent autovacuum file truncation from being cancelled by deadlock_timeout * Make extensions build with the .exe suffix automatically on Windows * Fix concurrency issues with CREATE/DROP DATABASE * Reject out-of-range values in to_date() conversion function * Revert cost estimation for large indexes back to pre-9.2 behavior * Make pg_basebackup tolerate timeline switches * Cleanup leftover temp table entries during crash recovery * Prevent infinite loop when COPY inserts a large tuple into a table with a large fillfactor * Prevent integer overflow in dynahash creation * Make pg_upgrade work with INVALID indexes * Fix bugs in TYPE privileges * Allow Contrib installchecks to run in their own databases * Many documentation updates * Add new timezone "FET".

databases/postgresql84-server: Fix rpath of plpgsql.so
Due to updated PKG_DEVELOPER checks, postgresql84-server started failing
with the following message:
ERROR: lib/postgresql/plpgsql.so: missing libintl.so.8
The plpgsql.so library had no rpath set other than what the base compiler
adds by default. On DragonFly, the libintl.so library would likely have
been found anyway as /usr/pkg/lib is part of the LD_CONFIG hint file
search path, but that isn't a guarantee.
The new patch adds ${libdir} to the plpgsql.so rpath so it passes
PKG_DEVELOPER checks now.

* Add new configuration parameter ssl_renegotiation_limit to control how often we do session key renegotiation for an SSL connection * Fix possible deadlock during backend startup * Fix possible crashes due to not handling errors during relcache reload cleanly * Fix possible crash due to use of dangling pointer to a cached plan * Fix possible crash due to overenthusiastic invalidation of cached plan for "ROLLBACK" * Fix possible crashes when trying to recover from a failure in subtransaction start * Fix server memory leak associated with use of savepoints and a client encoding different from server's encoding * Fix incorrect WAL data emitted during end-of-recovery cleanup of a GIST index page split * Fix bug in WAL redo cleanup method for GIN indexes * Fix incorrect comparison of scan key in GIN index search * Make substring() for bit types treat any negative length as meaning "all the rest of the string" The previous coding treated only -1 that way, and would produce an invalid result value for other negative values, possibly leading to a crash (CVE-2010-0442). * Fix integer-to-bit-string conversions to handle the first fractional byte correctly when the output bit width is wider than the given integer by something other than a multiple of 8 bits * Fix some cases of pathologically slow regular expression matching * Fix bug occurring when trying to inline a SQL function that returns a set of a composite type that contains dropped columns * Fix bug with trying to update a field of an element of a composite-type array column * Avoid failure when "EXPLAIN" has to print a FieldStore or assignment ArrayRef expression These cases can arise now that "EXPLAIN VERBOSE" tries to print plan node target lists. * Avoid an unnecessary coercion failure in some cases where an undecorated literal string appears in a subquery within "UNION"/"INTERSECT"/"EXCEPT" This fixes a regression for some cases that worked before 8.4. * Avoid undesirable rowtype compatibility check failures in some cases where a whole-row Var has a rowtype that contains dropped columns * Fix the STOP WAL LOCATION entry in backup history files to report the next WAL segment's name when the end location is exactly at a segment boundary * Always pass the catalog ID to an option validator function specified in "CREATE FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER" * Fix some more cases of temporary-file leakage * Add support for doing FULL JOIN ON FALSE * Improve constraint exclusion processing of boolean-variable cases, in particular make it possible to exclude a partition that has a "bool_column = false" constraint * Prevent treating an INOUT cast as representing binary compatibility * Include column name in the message when warning about inability to grant or revoke column-level privileges This is more useful than before and helps to prevent confusion when a "REVOKE" generates multiple messages, which formerly appeared to be duplicates. * When reading "pg_hba.conf" and related files, do not treat @something as a file inclusion request if the @ appears inside quote marks; also, never treat @ by itself as a file inclusion request * Prevent infinite loop on some platforms if a directory is named as an inclusion target in "pg_hba.conf" and related files * Fix possible infinite loop if SSL_read or SSL_write fails without setting errno This is reportedly possible with some Windows versions of openssl. * Disallow GSSAPI authentication on local connections, since it requires a hostname to function correctly * Protect ecpg against applications freeing strings unexpectedly * Make ecpg report the proper SQLSTATE if the connection disappears * Fix translation of cell contents in psql \d output * Fix psql's numericlocale option to not format strings it shouldn't in latex and troff output formats * Fix a small per-query memory leak in psql * Make psql return the correct exit status (3) when ON_ERROR_STOP and --single-transaction are both specified and an error occurs during the implied "COMMIT" * Fix pg_dump's output of permissions for foreign servers * Fix possible crash in parallel pg_restore due to out-of-range dependency IDs * Fix plpgsql failure in one case where a composite column is set to NULL * Fix possible failure when calling PL/Perl functions from PL/PerlU or vice versa * Add volatile markings in PL/Python to avoid possible compiler-specific misbehavior * Ensure PL/Tcl initializes the Tcl interpreter fully The only known symptom of this oversight is that the Tcl clock command misbehaves if using Tcl 8.5 or later. * Prevent ExecutorEnd from being run on portals created within a failed transaction or subtransaction This is known to cause issues when using "contrib/auto_explain". * Prevent crash in "contrib/dblink" when too many key columns are specified to a dblink_build_sql_* function * Allow zero-dimensional arrays in "contrib/ltree" operations * Fix assorted crashes in "contrib/xml2" caused by sloppy memory management * Make building of "contrib/xml2" more robust on Windows * Fix race condition in Windows signal handling One known symptom of this bug is that rows in pg_listener could be dropped under heavy load. * Make the configure script report failure if the C compiler does not provide a working 64-bit integer datatype This case has been broken for some time, and no longer seems worth supporting, so just reject it at configure time instead. * Update time zone data files to tzdata release 2010e for DST law changes in Bangladesh, Chile, Fiji, Mexico, Paraguay, Samoa. --- Module Name:

Many of the changes in PostgreSQL 8.4 are new or improved administration and monitoring tools and commands. Each user has their own favorite features which will make day-to-day work with PostgreSQL easier and more productive for them. Among the most popular enhancements are: * Parallel Database Restore, speeding up recovery from backup up to 8 times * Per-Column Permissions, allowing more granular control of sensitive data * Per-database Collation Support, making PostgreSQL more useful in multi-lingual environments * In-place Upgrades through pg_migrator (beta), enabling upgrades from 8.3 to 8.4 without extensive downtime * New Query Monitoring Tools, giving administrators more insight into query activity * Greatly Reduced VACUUM Overhead through the Visibility Map * New Monitoring Tools for current queries, query load and deadlocks Version 8.4 also makes data analysis easier through the advanced ANSI SQL2003 features of windowing functions, common table expressions and recursive queries. Enhancements to stored procedures, such as default parameters and variadic parameters, make database server programming simpler and more compact. Of course, there are also performance improvements included in this version.
