This series does some preparation and introduces UDP replicast. A concept where we emulate multicast by sending multiple unicast messages to configured peers. This is required for TIPC to work in environments where IP multicast is disabled.
There is a corresponding patch series for the tipc user space tool that allows a user to add remote addresses to the replicast list.
