Motivation:
With SO_REUSEPORT it is possible to bind multiple sockets to the same port and so handle the processing of packets via multiple threads. This allows to handle DatagramPackets with more then one thread on the same port and so gives better performance.
Modifications:
Expose EpollDatagramChannelConfig.setReusePort(..) and isReusePort()
Result:
Allow to bind multiple times to the same local address and so archive better performance.
Motivation:
In linux kernel 3.9 a new featured named SO_REUSEPORT was introduced which allows to have multiple sockets bind to the same port and so handle the accept() of new connections with multiple threads. This can greatly improve the performance when you not to accept a lot of connections.
Modifications:
Implement SO_REUSEPORT via JNI
Result:
Be able to use the SO_REUSEPORT feature when using the EpollServerSocketChannel
