From 1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1fc7321cac2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds Date: Sat, 16 Apr 2005 15:20:36 -0700 Subject: Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it.

This + option must be enabled for at least one of the clustered computers + that will take care of intercepting incoming connections to a + single IP address and scheduling them to real servers. + + Three request dispatching techniques are implemented, they are + virtual server via NAT, virtual server via tunneling and virtual + server via direct routing. The several scheduling algorithms can + be used to choose which server the connection is directed to, + thus load balancing can be achieved among the servers.

Using a big IPVS connection hash table will greatly + reduce conflicts when there are hundreds of thousands of connections + in the hash table. + + Note the table size must be power of 2. The table size will be the + value of 2 to the your input number power. The number to choose is + from 8 to 20, the default number is 12, which means the table size + is 4096. Don't input the number too small, otherwise you will lose + performance on it. You can adapt the table size yourself, according + to your virtual server application. It is good to set the table size + not far less than the number of connections per second multiplying + average lasting time of connection in the table. For example, your + virtual server gets 200 connections per second, the connection lasts + for 200 seconds in average in the connection table, the table size + should be not far less than 200x200, it is good to set the table + size 32768 (2**15). + + Another note that each connection occupies 128 bytes effectively and + each hash entry uses 8 bytes, so you can estimate how much memory is + needed for your box. + +comment "IPVS transport protocol load balancing support" + depends on IP_VS + +config IP_VS_PROTO_TCP + bool "TCP load balancing support" + depends on IP_VS + ---help--- + This option enables support for load balancing TCP transport + protocol.

Requests for + a target are assigned to the least-connection node in the target's + server set. If all the node in the server set are over loaded, + it picks up a least-connection node in the cluster and adds it + in the sever set for the target.
