Like with any other service, group members' availability can be subscribed for by connecting to be topology server. However, because the events arrive via a different socket than the member socket, there is a real risk that membership events my arrive out of synch with the actual JOIN/LEAVE action. I.e., it is possible to receive the first messages from a new member before the corresponding JOIN event arrives, just as it is possible to receive the last messages from a leaving member after the LEAVE event has already been received. Since each member socket is internally also subscribing for membership events, we now fix this problem by passing those events on to the user via the member socket. We leverage the already present member synch- ronization protocol to guarantee correct message/event order. An event is delivered to the user as an empty message where the two source addresses identify the new/lost member. Furthermore, we set the MSG_OOB bit in the message flags to mark it as an event. If the event is an indication about a member loss we also set the MSG_EOR bit, so it can be distinguished from a member addition event.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
