[Patch] SO_REUSEPORT support from master process

[Lu, Yingqi]

One more comment from me: duplicate listen sockets in kernel is not a trivia thing to do and it may take long time before people can see it. Addressing it Nginx may not be as ideal as in kernel, but at least user can see the performance improvement sooner. In fact, we see up to 48% performance improvement on modern Intel system. Just my two cents.

Again, thanks very much for everyone for helping us review this.

Thanks,
Yingqi

Hi Maxim,

Thanks for letting us know.

Our updated patch is located at http://forum.nginx.org/read.php?29,253446,253446#msg-253446 

It supposes to address all the style issues and fixes the restart and binary upgrade issues. This is just a FYI in case you are not aware of.

Thanks,
Yingqi

Apart from style/coding issues, I disagree with the whole approach.

As far as I understand the patch idea, it tries to introduce multiple listening sockets to avoid in-kernel lock contention.  
This is something that can be done completely in kernel though, and I see no reason to introduce any changes to nginx here.  

The approach previously discussed with Sepherosa Ziehau looks much more interesting.
