Bug 103231

By multicast, I mean for example ff02::1

$ ping6 ff02::1%gre1
connect: Network is unreachable

More information:

$ uname -a

$ ip tunnel add gre1 mode gre local a.b.c.d remote e.f.g.h ttl 63

# unicast works:

rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 40.479/40.479/40.479/0.000 ms

I found a workaround:
$ ip -6 route add ff00::/8 dev gre1
$ ping6 ff02::1%gre1
PING ff02::1%gre1(ff02::1) 56 data bytes
64 bytes from fe80::200:5efe:5e17:c50f: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.134 ms
64 bytes from fe80::200:5efe:5138:7b28: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=40.6 ms (DUP!)
^C
--- ff02::1%gre1 ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 1 received, +1 duplicates, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.134/20.384/40.635/20.251 ms

But it only works once:
$ ip -6 route add ff00::/8 dev gre2
RTNETLINK answers: File exists

Expected results:
- there should be no need to add a ff00::/8 for ff02::1 to ping
- it should be possible to have several GRE tunnels with working multicast
