In order to support reconnect to hostnames that resolve to same ip
address, besides relying on the currently set hostname to match DFS
targets, attempt to resolve the targets and then match their addresses
with the reconnected server ip address.
For instance, if we have two hostnames "FOO" and "BAR", and both
resolve to the same ip address, we would be able to handle failover in
DFS paths like
\\FOO\dfs\link1 -> [ \BAZ\share2 (*), \BAR\share1 ]
\\FOO\dfs\link2 -> [ \BAZ\share2 (*), \FOO\share1 ]
so when "BAZ" is no longer accessible, link1 and link2 would get
reconnected despite having different target hostnames.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
