>Description:
Applications running on a system with a TI ThunderLAN ethernet
controller chip,
for example the "Compaq Netelligent 10/100TX", that receive multicast packets
may find
that no packets are received for certain multicast hardware addresses.
>How-To-Repeat:
On problem system: with openmdns-0.7 package installed and running on a
"tl" interface
# tcpdump -p -w -i tl0 multicast
check whether any multicast DNS packets are seen to destination
01:00:5e:00:00:fb
(generate traffic from, for example "ping problemhost.local" from an
mdns aware system on the local network)
if NO IPv4 multicast packets to 224.0.0.251 are observed the problem
has been replicated.
if packets such as
22:28:45.774775 00:25:00:3e:ae:2d 01:00:5e:00:00:fb ip 77: 192.168.42.64.mdns >
224.0.0.251.mdns: 0 A (QU)? problemhost.local. (35)
are reported the problem is fixed.
>Fix:
The code in if_tl.c, tl_calchash() is wrong in that it doesn't
compensate for signed char type so that the XOR operations to generate the
multicast hash index are polluted by sign extension if the MSbit of the 1st and
4th or 2nd and 5th bytes of the multicast destination ethernet address are not
equal. This is the patch for that problem:
