Hi! The node documentation of the cluster module says about incoming server connections:
When multiple processes are all accept()ing on the same underlying > resource, the operating system load-balances across them very efficiently. > There is no routing logic in Node.js, or in your program, and no shared > state between the workers. I want to understand what node does when a new incoming connection is established and two or more worker are "listening". As far as I understand what happens after listen(port) is called on a workers server instance is, that the master is queried ("queryServer internal message") about the given parameters like port and type, and that the server returns an "fd handler" (in cluster.js, messageHandler.queryServer). This handle is either retrieved or newly created. So what is that handle about? It is created in the _createServerHandle method in the net module, which creates a new instance of process.binding('tcp_wrap').TCP defined in tcp_wrap.cc in case of a TCP-based server. But where does that "acception" that is mentioned in the documentation take place? Is there any (easy) way to create a custom way of distribution of new connections to all listening workers?
