Parent selection secondary_mode config value 3 is not working as documented

[Vijay-1]

secondary_mode -3
scenario #1
Expectation
If the chosen parent is marked down then another parent will be chosen from the secondary_parent list. The secondary_parent list will be exhausted before attempting to choose another parent in the parent list.

Behaviour
Chosen parent is marked down. The remaining parent in the primary list is getting chosen instead of trying parents from secondary_list

parent.config

dest_ip=10.x.x.x port=80 parent="ts-mid3.testing.in:80|0.1;ts-mid4.testing.in:80|0.1;" secondary_parent="ts-mid1.testing.in:80|0.1;ts-mid2.testing.in:80|0.1;" round_robin=consistent_hash go_direct=false qstring=ignore secondary_mode=3

This is not an issue. One has to take parents down using traffic_ctl host down for this to work as documented. PR-Documentation-fix
