The parent_result->retry is set when the retry window on a marked down parent elapses. In HttpTransact, if retry is true and the transaction is successful to the parent, HttpTransact will mark the parent up. That’s the only way markParentUp is ever called.

The core does know, it's tracked in parent_result.retry. I guess we could add code to set that independent of the response_action, but that code doesn't exist today, it was previously in the old parent path that's not taken for response_action/strategy. I'm not sure exactly where it'd have to be added. I'm also not 100% sure there isn't a use case where a plugin would want to set retry=false even though it is, to elicit certain behavior. It seems strange, but I'm not certain it isn't valid. — You are receiving this because you were mentioned.
