Hi Jim,

Thanks for your email. I think it should not be very hard to back port. After 
you trunked the original patch last June, I was working with Yann Ylavic last 
November to fix some minor issues. With current trunked code, there is no major 
API change to 2.4 version and we have tested with multiple workloads and usage 
cases for all 4 existing MPMs. It looks good to us.

Please note, with current code, there is a new configurable flag called 
"ListenCoresBucketsRatio". The default value is 0 which means SO_REUSEPORT is 
disabled. This is different than the original patch. The reason Yann decided to 
choose the opt-in way because he finds it safer, especially for backports to 
stable. Given this said, I think it would be a good idea to add some document 
to introduce the feature and the flag itself. This would allow users to take 
advantage of this.

Please let me know if you have any questions. Again, thanks very much for the 
help, really appreciated!

The whole work can be followed in three threads with name:
1. "[PATCH ASF bugzilla# 55897]prefork_mpm patch with SO_REUSEPORT support"
2. "svn commit: r1599531 - in /httpd/httpd/trunk: CHANGES include/ap_listen.h 
server/listen.c server/mpm/event/event.c server/mpm/prefork/prefork.c 
server/mpm/worker/worker.c server/mpm_unix.c"
3. "Listeners buckets and duplication w/ and w/o SO_REUSEPORT on trunk"

Thanks,
Yingqi

Let me look... how easy is the backport?
