I think debugging it will be easier than writing something for you to
reproduce it...
I have tracked it down to this code in route.c:
if (fl4->flowi4_oif) {
dev_out = dev_get_by_index_rcu(net, fl4->flowi4_oif);
rth = ERR_PTR(-ENODEV);
if (!dev_out)
goto out;
/* RACE: Check return value of inet_select_addr instead. */
if (!(dev_out->flags & IFF_UP) || !__in_dev_get_rcu(dev_out)) {
rth = ERR_PTR(-ENETUNREACH);
goto out;
}
if (ipv4_is_local_multicast(fl4->daddr) ||
ipv4_is_lbcast(fl4->daddr) ||
fl4->flowi4_proto == IPPROTO_IGMP) {
if (!fl4->saddr)
fl4->saddr = inet_select_addr(dev_out, 0,
RT_SCOPE_LINK);
goto make_route;
}
if (!fl4->saddr) {
if (ipv4_is_multicast(fl4->daddr))
fl4->saddr = inet_select_addr(dev_out, 0,
fl4->flowi4_scope);
else if (!fl4->daddr)
fl4->saddr = inet_select_addr(dev_out, 0,
RT_SCOPE_HOST);
}
}
if (!fl4->daddr) {
fl4->daddr = fl4->saddr;
if (!fl4->daddr)
fl4->daddr = fl4->saddr = htonl(INADDR_LOOPBACK);
dev_out = net->loopback_dev;
fl4->flowi4_oif = LOOPBACK_IFINDEX;
res->type = RTN_LOCAL;
flags |= RTCF_LOCAL;
goto make_route;
}
pr_info("ip-route-output-key-hash-rcu before fib_lookup: orig_oif: %d fl4 oif: %d\n",
orig_oif, fl4->flowi4_oif);
err = fib_lookup(net, fl4, res, 0);
pr_info("ip-route-output-key-hash-rcu after fib_lookup: orig_oif: %d fl4 oif: %d err: %d\n",
orig_oif, fl4->flowi4_oif, err);
dmesg output:

So, something in the fib_lookup code is selecting the vrf device as output,
I guess because oif 4 (eth1) is part of the vrf. And then the vrf routing table
ends up selecting oif 5 (eth2), which holds the default route. However, there is
nothing adding any mcast routing (I am not running any multicast router on this vrf),
so once the code forgets that I bound the socket to oif 4, then it ends up choosing
the wrong outbound interface.
In the paste above, there is special casing for 'local' mcast routing. If I select
a 224.0.0.x local mcast address, then the special case code is used and then things
work as I expected (mcast pkts go out of the selected interface).
I think that maybe other mcast addresses should also abide by the user's request if user
has bound it to a specified oif?
Or, maybe there is some special casing needed in the fib_lookup?
Thanks,
Ben
