This patch adds a new socket option, SO_REUSEPORT_LB, which allow multiple programs or threads to bind to the same port and incoming connections will be load balanced using a hash function. Most of the code was copied from a similar patch for DragonflyBSD. However, in DragonflyBSD, load balancing is a global on/off setting and can not be set per socket. This patch allows for simultaneous use of both the current SO_REUSEPORT and the new SO_REUSEPORT_LB options on the same system. Required changes to structures Globally change so_options from 16 to 32 bit value to allow for more options. Add hashtable in pcbinfo to hold all SO_REUSEPORT_LB sockets. Limitations As DragonflyBSD, a load balance group is limited to 256 pcbs (256 programs or threads sharing the same socket).

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information).
The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7) and https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables.
The buildkernel and installkernel targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.
Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process. See build(7), config(8), and https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
buildkernel and installkernel targets, you might need to build
world before. More information is available in the handbook.
The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds.
