Hrrrrm. I was specifically requested to detect and prevent direct looping on parent selection. A complaint about the original logic was it failed to detect exactly this situation. So it's breaking you by design (which in a sense is good, because that proves it solved one of the two problems the PR was addressing). Since your stuff is currently experimental, and this fixes current production problems, I think we should merge it and then look for a fix for you. You'll have to hash it out with @vmamidi and his crew. I will ponder some approaches. Off the cuff, * plugin API to disable the self loop check. * configuration variable (which, frankly, will end up being the same as the previous). * something in the HostDB/DNS record that says "OK to loop". * something set by parent selection in this case to disable the check. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
