Hi David,

Sorry for the late reply. Today I find your reply in
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/989422/, but I could not find your reply
in my local mailbox, even on gmail web side. I can receive other kernel
mails correctly, which is weird...I will check it later.

For your question:

> Why isn't mld_update_qrv() taking care of this?

mld_update_qrv() is used for processing recieved mldv2 query message. This
patch is to init new sysctl_mld_qrv for new joined groups, which haven't
received any mld query message. e.g.

- ipv6_mc_up() - ipv6_mc_reset() set idev->mc_qrv to default sysctl_mld_qrv, which is 2
  - Join group A with qrv = 2
  - user set sysctl_mld_qrv to 3
  - Join group B with qrv = 2  <- Here the new group should set qrv to 3 as
                                  user updated sysctl_mld_qrv. This is the
				  issue this patch want to fix
  - Recived MLDv2 query message
  - Group A, B update new qrv via mld_update_qrv()

We should not init mc_qrv to min(MLD_QRV_DEFAULT, sysctl_mld_qrv), or
user will never be able to set mc_qrv greater than 2.
