> Hi,
> 
> Can I get the following change reviewed please? It disables the IPV6_MULTICAST_ALL socket option on UDP sockets on Linux systems which support the option (kernel version 4.20+). This has the effect of disabling the surprising default behavior of multicast sockets on Linux where sockets can receive packets sent to groups the receiver has not joined, if some other socket has joined that group on the same system.
> 
> The equivalent behavior has already been implemented for IPv4 sockets.
> 
> Thanks,
> Michael.
