The previously introduced message transport to all group members is based on the tipc multicast service, but is logically a broadcast service within the group, and that is what we call it. We now add functionality for sending messages to all group members having a certain identity. Correspondingly, we call this feature 'group multicast'. The service is using unicast when only one destination is found, otherwise it will use the bearer broadcast service to transfer the messages. In the latter case, the receiving members filter arriving messages by looking at the intended destination instance. If there is no match, the message will be dropped, while still being considered received and read as seen by the flow control mechanism.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
