IPv6 组播接口选择

Question

setsockopt 到 select 用于 IPv4 传出流量的接口的方法是 IP_MULTICAST_IF，它接受两个参数。来自 ip(4) 手册页：

Set the local device for a multicast socket. The argument for setsockopt(2) is an ip_mreqn or (since Linux 3.5) ip_mreq structure similar to IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP, or an in_addr structure.

尝试对 IPv6 流量执行类似操作时，选项更改为接口索引。来自 ipv6(4) 手册页：

Set the device for outgoing multicast packets on the socket. This is allowed only for SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_RAW socket. The argument is a pointer to an interface index (see netdevice(7)) in an integer.

如果网络接口（例如 eth0）分配了多个地址，会发生什么情况？是不是 IPv6 套接字接口已经消除了单独使用每个地址的可能性？

Answer 1

如果您的接口只有一个 link-local 地址 (fe80::/10) 和一个公共可路由地址，则传出数据包的源地址取决于您要发送到的多播地址的范围.

IPv6 多播地址的格式为 ffxy::/16，其中 x 是标志字段，y 是范围。如果范围是 1（接口本地）或 2（link 本地），则源地址将是 link-local 地址。如果范围是 3 或更高，源地址将是公共可路由地址。

另一方面，如果您的接口有多个公共路由地址，您需要在发送数据报时使用 sendmsg，以便您可以使用 IPV6_PKTINFO 控件设置源地址 header.

下面是如何执行此操作的完整示例，假设您在一个接口上有 2001::1:2:3 和 2002::1:2:3 作为 IPv6 地址，并且 ff03::1:2:3 是您发送到的多播地址.

#define _GNU_SOURCE   // needed for some IPv6 datatypes to be visible

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <arpa/inet.h>

// multicast address to send to
const char *maddr = "ff03::1:2:3";

// uncomment the line for the source address you want to use
const char *srcaddr = "2001::1:2:3";
//const char *srcaddr = "2002::1:2:3";

int main()
{
    int sock;
    struct sockaddr_in6 dstaddr;

    struct iovec iovec[1];
    struct msghdr msg;
    struct cmsghdr* cmsg;
    char msg_control[1024];
    char udp_packet[] = "this is a test";
    int cmsg_space;
    struct in6_pktinfo *pktinfo;

    dstaddr.sin6_family = AF_INET6;
    inet_pton(AF_INET6, maddr, &dstaddr.sin6_addr);
    dstaddr.sin6_port = htons(5555);
    dstaddr.sin6_flowinfo = 0;
    dstaddr.sin6_scope_id = 0;

    if ((sock=socket(AF_INET6, SOCK_DGRAM, 0)) == -1) {
        perror("socket failed");
        exit(1);
    }

    // set up the msghdr structure with the destination address, 
    // buffer to send, and control info buffer
    iovec[0].iov_base = udp_packet;
    iovec[0].iov_len = strlen(udp_packet);
    msg.msg_name = &dstaddr;
    msg.msg_namelen = sizeof(dstaddr);
    msg.msg_iov = iovec;
    msg.msg_iovlen = sizeof(iovec) / sizeof(*iovec);
    msg.msg_control = msg_control;
    msg.msg_controllen = sizeof(msg_control);
    msg.msg_flags = 0;

    // add IPV6_PKTINFO control message to specify source address
    cmsg_space = 0;
    cmsg = CMSG_FIRSTHDR(&msg);
    cmsg->cmsg_level = IPPROTO_IPV6;
    cmsg->cmsg_type = IPV6_PKTINFO;
    cmsg->cmsg_len = CMSG_LEN(sizeof(*pktinfo));
    pktinfo = (struct in6_pktinfo*) CMSG_DATA(cmsg);
    pktinfo->ipi6_ifindex = 0;
    inet_pton(AF_INET6, srcaddr, &pktinfo->ipi6_addr);
    cmsg_space += CMSG_SPACE(sizeof(*pktinfo));
    msg.msg_controllen = cmsg_space;

    // send packet
    if (sendmsg(sock, &msg, 0) == -1) {
        perror("send failed");
    }

    return 0;
}
