I am starting to add multicast support to the lancepci (VMWare) eth driver. Sending works fine as it is just UDP sendto - I see the packets on a neighboring LINUX box.
I have made a first attempt to configure the adapter to receive MC addresses. For now I am just setting all 64 mask bits to one to allow all MC addresses - this seems to be common in eCos eth drivers anyway. So far I am not seeing packets back to my application. From my debug code in lancepci_recv I think the hardware is delivering them and I am passing them up the stack. Before I bust my hump too much more I wanted to see if anyone had a warm fuzzy feeling about multicast on eCos? Is it known to work? Is there was any wise advice about how to proceed?
