[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (JGRP-1765) TP: enable loopback by default and discard own multicasts

[Bela Ban (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1765?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12951571#comment-12951571 ] 

Bela Ban commented on JGRP-1765:
--------------------------------

Actually, we *can* use the sender's physical address: in UDP, we're now sending multicasts via the DatagramSocket and *not* the MulticastSocket (only used for receiving mcasts). This allows us to get the sender's address and (real, not mcast) port and thus we can discard messages from ourself.

> Enable {{TP.looback}} by default (deprecate and ignore prop): all messages sent by self are passed right to a thread pool to send them up again.
> When a multicast message sent by self is received, it is currently passed to a thread pool, de-serialized and only then discarded if loopback=true. This means that we create an unneeded buffer for de-serializationand perform de-serialization.
> SOLUTION: discard the multicast from self immediately when receiving it, in {{TP.receive()}}
