Hello, if I create a UDP socket, use setsockopt(SO_BROADCAST) to allow broadcasts to come in, and bind to the IP address of my interface, I don't receive any UDP broadcasts. If I bind to INADDR_ANY, I receive the broadcasts. The fix for this (in net/ipv4/udp.c: udp_v4_mcast_next()) would be quite simple, so I think this somewhat unexpected behaviour must be deliberate. Can anybody explain why it is so?
