sysctl: ipv6 route flushing (kill binary path)

[wrt350n-kernel.git] / net / ipv4 / ipvs / ip_vs_sync.c

/*
 * IPVS         An implementation of the IP virtual server support for the
 *              LINUX operating system.  IPVS is now implemented as a module
 *              over the NetFilter framework. IPVS can be used to build a
 *              high-performance and highly available server based on a
 *              cluster of servers.
 *
 * Version:     $Id: ip_vs_sync.c,v 1.13 2003/06/08 09:31:19 wensong Exp $
 *
 * Authors:     Wensong Zhang <wensong@linuxvirtualserver.org>
 *
 * ip_vs_sync:  sync connection info from master load balancer to backups
 *              through multicast
 *
 * Changes:
 *      Alexandre Cassen        :       Added master & backup support at a time.
 *      Alexandre Cassen        :       Added SyncID support for incoming sync
 *                                      messages filtering.
 *      Justin Ossevoort        :       Fix endian problem on sync message size.
