lvs seems not very SMP friendly and a bit complex.

I would use an iptables setup and a slighly modified REDIRECT target
(and/or a nf_nat_setup_info() change)

Say you have 8 daemons listening on different ports (1000 to 1007)

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 1234 -j REDIRECT --rxhash-dist 
--to-port 1000-1007

rxhash would be provided by RPS on recent kernels or locally computed if
not already provided by core network (or old kernel)

This rule would be triggered only at connection establishment.
conntracking take care of following packets and is SMP friendly.
