====================
This pull requests makes the following changes:
* Add simple weighted fail-over scheduler.
- Unlike other IPVS schedulers this offers fail-over rather than load
balancing. Connections are directed to the appropriate server based
solely on highest weight value and server availability.
- Thanks to Kenny Mathis
* Support IPv6 real servers in IPv4 virtual-services and vice versa
- This feature is supported in conjunction with the tunnel (IPIP)
forwarding mechanism. That is, IPv4 may be forwarded in IPv6 and
vice versa.
- The motivation for this is to allow more flexibility in the
choice of IP version offered by both virtual-servers and
real-servers as they no longer need to match: An IPv4 connection from an
end-user may be forwarded to a real-server using IPv6 and vice versa.
- Further work need to be done to support this feature in conjunction
with connection synchronisation. For now such configurations are
not allowed.
- This change includes update to netlink protocol, adding a new
destination address family attribute. And the necessary changes
to plumb this information throughout IPVS.
- Thanks to Alex Gartrell and Julian Anastasov
