Hi, everyone,
I'm looking at the MLDv2 implemenation in kernel, and there seem to be some 
issues, could anyone confirm them?
1.  RFC3810 clause 6.1 mentions there is a Source Retransmission Counter 
associated to each source, so that the merged report could contain the content 
that is interrupted by a new state change report          BUT, I didn't see 
this is implemented currently!
2.  Regarding the 'Older Version Querier Present timer', the code is like 
this:old_version_timer = (mli->mli_rv * mli->mli_qi) + mli->mli_qri;
while mli->mli_qri = maxdelay, and maxdelay = ntohs(mld->mld_maxdelay).     
BUT, mld_maxdelay is in units of milliseconds (clause 5.1.3), I think it should 
be divided by 1000 before it adds to old_version_timer.

3.  According to RFC, a node MUST accept and process any Query whose IP 
Destination Address field contains *any* of the address (unicast or multicast) 
assigned to the interface on which the Query arrives.          BUT, I see the 
code only accept General Query addressed to FF02::1.

Best Regards,Yong
