Based on RFC3376 5.1
If no interface
state existed for that multicast address before the change (i.e., the
change consisted of creating a new per-interface record), or if no
state exists after the change (i.e., the change consisted of deleting
a per-interface record), then the "non-existent" state is considered
to have a filter mode of INCLUDE and an empty source list.
Which means a new multicast group should start with state IN().
Function ip_mc_join_group() works correctly for IGMP ASM(Any-Source Multicast)
mode. It adds a group with state EX() and inits crcount to mc_qrv,
so the kernel will send a TO_EX() report message after adding group.
But for IGMPv3 SSM(Source-specific multicast) JOIN_SOURCE_GROUP mode, we
split the group joining into two steps. First we join the group like ASM,
i.e. via ip_mc_join_group(). So the state changes from IN() to EX().
Then we add the source-specific address with INCLUDE mode. So the state
changes from EX() to IN(A).
Before the first step sends a group change record, we finished the second
step. So we will only send the second change record. i.e. TO_IN(A).
Regarding the RFC stands, we should actually send an ALLOW(A) message for
SSM JOIN_SOURCE_GROUP as the state should mimic the 'IN() to IN(A)'
transition.
The issue was exposed by commit a052517a8f ("net/multicast: should not
send source list records when have filter mode change"). Before this change,
we used to send both ALLOW(A) and TO_IN(A). After this change we only send
TO_IN(A).
Fix it by adding a new parameter to init group mode. Also add new wrapper
functions so we don't need to change too much code.
v1 -> v2:
In my first version I only cleared the group change record. But this is not
enough. Because when a new group join, it will init as EXCLUDE and trigger
an filter mode change in ip/ip6_mc_add_src(), which will clear all source
addresses' sf_crcount. This will prevent early joined address sending state
change records if multi source addressed joined at the same time.
In v2 patch, I fixed it by directly initializing the mode to INCLUDE for SSM
JOIN_SOURCE_GROUP. I also split the original patch into two separated patches
for IPv4 and IPv6.
Fixes: a052517a8f ("net/multicast: should not send source list records when have filter mode change")
