Multithreaded app and TCP/IP stack

Hi,
We'd like to optimize the throughput of a multithreaded app running on
Linux which sends UDP packets (multicast) using several network
cards.
Is it possible that each thread opens a socket bound to a different
network interface?
How the current linux kernel can handle this? I mean, is there any
kind of serialization at kernel level which might make the multi-
threaded model unuseful?
Thanks
