Simon Horman says: ==================== IPVS Updates for v4.18 please consider these IPVS enhancements for v4.18. * Whitepace cleanup * Add Maglev hashing algorithm as a IPVS scheduler Inju Song says "Implements the Google's Maglev hashing algorithm as a IPVS scheduler. Basically it provides consistent hashing but offers some special features about disruption and load balancing. 1) minimal disruption: when the set of destinations changes, a connection will likely be sent to the same destination as it was before. 2) load balancing: each destination will receive an almost equal number of connections. Seel also: [3.4 Consistent Hasing] in https://www.usenix.org/system/files/conference/nsdi16/nsdi16-paper-eisenbud.pdf " * Fix to correct implementation of Knuth's multiplicative hashing which is used in sh/dh/lblc/lblcr algorithms. Instead the implementation provided by the hash_32() macro is used. ==================== Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
