Hi,

Please see the discussion in the following mails. One of the TCK test cases, api/java_net/MulticastSocket/ClassLevel.html is failing on NonStop platform as NonStop doesn't support IP_MULTICAST_ALL option.

We would like this test case to be excluded from TCK. Please share your thoughts on this request.

I realize you have been directed here but this is not the right place to discuss TCK exclusion requests.

>From the mails you forwarded then it looks like there are issues with the multicast support in your port to NonStop. The IP_MULTICAST_ALL socket option you mention is used in the Linux port to avoid interference when two sockets are bound to the same port but joined to different multicast groups. Linux is an outlier in this scenario so the socket option is set to prevent the interference. My guess is that few people here will know NonStop but you could being porting questions on this code to net-dev.
