A tarball containing the patch (against Linux 2.4.6), documentation, and some test programs demonstrating use of the new multicast source filter (MSF) API is available at
ftp://ftpeng.cisco.com/igmpv3linux/igmpv3linux-v0003.tar.gz
This is alpha quality software, and there is still a
good amount of work to be
done, but it's reached a stage where some people may
find it useful. Also, I'm
anxious to receive feedback on both the high-level
approach and on any specific
problems that people detect.
Known limitations are:
- ip_mc_destroy_dev() not yet implemented
- probable concurrency issues
- Only traditional struct ip_mreq accepted by
MSF API functions; no
support for struct ip_mreqn (i.e.
identification of join interface by
ifindex).
- ip_mc_inc_group() and ip_mc_dec_group()
internal interface used by GRE
not yet implemented.
- Source filters not used for raw socket
delivery, only for UDP delivery
- Coarse-grained locking
- Protocol-independent MSF API not implemented
The web page for the original FreeBSD implementation
is in the middle of being
migrated to
http://www.kloosterhof.com/~wilbert/igmpv3.html.
For now, a Google-
cached copy can be viewed athttp://www.google.com/search?q=cache:w5LFEFJjCugC:home.hetnet.nl/~wilbertdg/igmpv3.html+igmpv3&hl=en&ie=UTF-8
Thanks, Vince Laviano vlaviano@cisco.com
