Phil Sorber commented on TS-3725:
---------------------------------
This patch set does not apply cleanly to 5.3.x. [~jacksontj], if you think this
is an important back-port, can you please make a patch for me to apply?
> ATS's use of host files is broken
> ---------------------------------
>
> Key: TS-3725
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-3725
> Project: Traffic Server
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 5.3.0, 6.0.0
> Reporter: Thomas Jackson
> Assignee: Thomas Jackson
> Fix For: 6.0.0
>
>
> The previous implementation actually loaded up the hosts file (in a
> background thread) and did a get (getbyname_imm) and then set the IPs to
> match. This works-- but does cause a problem since the port set on it is 0.
> What we need to do is have this thread maintain in an in-memory mapping of
> name -> ip and have it override resolution within hostdb, that way we can use
> host files and maintain whether reals are up or down.
