Patchset:
@laforge@gnumonks.org I don't even get why we have the "round-robin" traffic mode (OSMO_SS7_AS_TMOD_ROUNDROBIN), it doesn't even show up in RFC4666, so it cannot be requested over the wire....
I think this ended up as a confusion. The "round-robin" thing afaiu is actually one of the possible implementations of the "loadshare" traffic mode.
Hence, imho we should:
1- remove the OSMO_SS7_AS_TMOD_ROUNDROBIN field and remove it from "traffic-mode" VTY command too.
2- Add a new "enum osmo_ss7_as_traffic_loadshare_impl" where we have enum fields "SLS" and "ROUNDROBIN", and then in the vty command "loadshare" (see https://gerrit.osmocom.org/c/libosmo-sigtran/+/39408/6/src/osmo_ss7_vty.c, following Cisco ITP) add a new "traffic-mode loadshare round-robin" (also as specified in Cisco ITP).
So basically, rounrobin vs SLS distributon are options of the "loadshare" traffic mode.
I plan to provide those patches on top of the ASP loadsharing patchset unless somebody has any other opinion.
