You just removed its timeout table in 2.6.16. The real problem
is that timeouts are already per-protocol, i'm not sure it will compile
and work, one can try. On 5 Mar 2004 i sent you some ideas about
extending the timeout handling. The kernel has almost everything needed
to allow ipvsadm to set per-proto and per-app timeout, except if code
is already removed by someone as unused. Time ago i didn't proceeded
because libipvs is not my area. net/ipv4/ipvs/ip_vs_proto.c has funcs
to help per-state timeouts. Supporting state timeouts only for
secure_tcp mode (which is not useful) is bad idea. If you don't keep
this posting i can resend some ideas.
