Subject: ipvs: improved SH fallback strategy
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1255ce5f10dbb4646c8d43b8d59faab48ae4a6b2;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

ipvs: improved SH fallback strategy

Improve the SH fallback realserver selection strategy.

With sh and sh-fallback, if a realserver is down, this attempts to
distribute the traffic that would have gone to that server evenly
among the remaining servers.
