Comment 3 for bug 1974466

Hi @Nobuto it would be great if we could detect packet loss on the application level. We saw these packets coming back on a different NIC meaning the application would drop it.

Recapping the algo for others who might read this thread later;

We typically use Layer 2+3 which is something like: SOURCE_IP XOR SOURCE_PORT XOR DST_IP XOR DST_PORT XOR 0x0ffff to calculate the hash.

The exact methodology on how these bits can be XOR'd between the nodes, I'm not quite sure, but it would be great if we can incorporated into magpie somehow,

Cheers,
Peter
