Dear Wensong,
I would actually also favour Horms' approach, as the proc-fs variables
documentation already partially existed in man page at one point. At
least I believe so (haven't needed the man page in years anymore).
I see that we can add a note that full documentation on LVS is at
http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/. Then, we only need maintain one place
for describing the IPVS sysctl variables
(http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/docs/sysctl.html), and it can help
bring more traffic to the LVS web site. :)
There is only a little problem with that. I for one sometimes have to go
to a customer onsite where I do not have easy access to the Internet
(yes, this happens in very secure datacenters), and thus I would be in
need of an appropriate documentation of the proc-fs tunables. But then
again, I normally do not need the man page anyways :).
The ipvsadm-1.21-5.src.rpm with this change and two typo fixes from
Horms' patch is available at
http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/software/kernel-2.4/ipvsadm-1.21-5.src.rpm
In the end it's your call, Wensong, but Horms has already done the work
and here I do not see the problem of maintaining redundant information
as it doesn't change very often.
Tian bu pa, di bu pa, jiu pa yangguizi shuo Zhongguohua. :)
Best regards,
Roberto Nibali, ratz
