Not sure, may be IP:PORT of LVS's uplink gateway. In such
setups clients are usually internal hosts using LVS box as gateway.

May be the things have changed, not sure. The problem is when
functions like ip_route_me_harder() are called for packets that
are already forwarded by IPVS (skb has attached route for the
real server). In such case skb still shows VIP as iph->daddr and
a rerouting can result in local route. But latest kernels may be
reroute only in LOCAL_OUT, so this is not a problem.
As for the double POST_ROUTING log entries ... I'm checking
this NF_HOOK_THRESH call with NF_IP_PRI_LAST. For me, it looks like
net/netfilter/core.c:nf_iterate() calls only handlers when
elem->priority >= hook_thresh. But you put ip_vs_in() at the same
priority NF_IP_PRI_LAST. May be ip_vs_in() is called twice?
Also, if ip_vs_in() is called after SNAT I'm curious, isn't
ip_vs_ftp working with DNAT-ed skb (if you have netfilter ftp nat
module) ? May be things don't break because IPVS is careful not to
damage packets it can not recognize. But do we work properly with
the FTP commands in ip_vs_ftp_in(), do we create properly FTP data
connections in IPVS? I assume you test both passive and active FTP.
If the goal is -m state to work correctly, are you sure the IPVS FTP
data connections work correctly (as RELATED traffic)?
