Subject: PATCH: Multicast: Filter multicast traffic per socket mc_list
Do what David Stevens suggest: Add a per socket option
Subject: Multicast: Filter Multicast traffic per socket mc_list
If two processes open the same port as a multicast socket and then
join two different multicast groups then traffic for both multicast groups
is forwarded to either process. This means that application will get surprising
data that they did not ask for. Applications will have to filter these out in
order to work correctly if multiple apps run on the same system.
These are pretty strange semantics but they have been around since the
beginning of multicast support on Unix systems. Most of the other operating
systems supporting Multicast have since changed to only supplying multicast
traffic to a socket that was selected through multicast join operations.
This patch does change Linux to behave in the same way. But there may be
applications that rely on the old behavior. Therefore we provide a means
to switch back to the old behavior using a new multicast socket option
IP_MULTICAST_ALL
If set then all multicast traffic to the port is forwarded to the socket
(additional constraints are the SSM inclusion and exclusion lists!).
If not set (default) then only traffic for multicast groups that were
joined by thesocket is received.
