From 2f711939d2ea9dfaecebecd1324d2ec7a7a21f65 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hannes Frederic Sowa Date: Tue, 2 Sep 2014 15:49:25 +0200 Subject: ipv6: add sysctl_mld_qrv to configure query robustness variable This patch adds a new sysctl_mld_qrv knob to configure the mldv1/v2 query robustness variable. It specifies how many retransmit of unsolicited mld retransmit should happen. Admins might want to tune this on lossy links. Also reset mld state on interface down/up, so we pick up new sysctl settings during interface up event. IPv6 certification requests this knob to be available. I didn't make this knob netns specific, as it is mostly a setting in a physical environment and should be per host.
