There was some personal tragedy involved. The resolution for this is being tracked at: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D55031 With a minor errno correction at: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D55233 TL;DR This is purely an optional extension. It is not and never was a bug. The OpenJDK and other software started relying on it over the years, but it really doesn't fit with how the socket APIs involved were intended to operate, at all. It largely stems from uncertainty about the extent of IPv4-mapped address support, as tuexen has indicated. The cheap fix is to just do what Apple did and just pass it through to netinet for simple ASM-mode adds/joins, which is the most common multicast use case anyway, and it's usually for local link scoped groups. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
