QUIC-LB
QUIC-LB is a set of common algorithms that allow a QUIC server to incorporate a "Server ID" in its Connection ID, and for a low-state load balancer to extract that connection ID for routing purposes.
The QUIC Working Group [Editor's draft] (https://quicwg.org/load-balancers/draft-ietf-quic-load-balancers.html) specifies the design.

Guide to files
This project provides a library for load balancer and QUIC server implementations to generate and decode compliant connection IDs, given a consistent configuration.
This library is contained in quic_lb.h and quic_lb.c. As this code was originally developed for a proprietary microkernel environment, quic_lb_types.h is also required to compile in conventional Linux.
quic_lb_test.c creates a series of valid configurations, generates connection IDs for those configurations, and then extracts the server ID to check that it is recoverable. The Makefile compiles this test code, generating a full report of configuration parameters.
