Enhancement

In linux based systems, setting SO_REUSEPORT socket option and binding multiple listening sockets enables kernel to perform connection load balancing onto all listeners.
Whereas this is not implemented in windows and macOS.

But for FreeBSD based systems, an additional socket option called SO_REUSEPORT_LB has to be enabled in order for this load balancing to take place. It is described here.

Hence, this is an enhancement issue to enable this new option for freeBSD based systems.

This sounds correct. @chaitanyaprem, do you want to submit a PR?

Sure, I can.
Don't have a way to test this though. Any suggestions?
