This node forwards the request to each servers from
server_list. Forwarding differs from proxying
in that the requests are sent to the remote servers and processed
locally. The remote server is not expected to
reply. See section forwarding, for more information on this subject.
In contrast to grad_instr_proxy, this instruction type does not
cause the execution to stop.
Elements of server_list are of type grad_server_t.
Currently forwarding is performed by forward_request function
(‘forward.c’), which could be used with little modifications.
Namely, it will be rewritten to get server list as argument, instead
of using static variable forward_list. Consequently, the
functions responsible for creating and initializing this static
variable will disappear along with the variable itself. .
