Subject: [PATCH net 4/5] ipv4: restrict igmp_qrv to 255
Date: Fri, 23 Oct 2026 17:13:30 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261023091419.167088-5-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261023091419.167088-1-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev>

net.ipv4.igmp_qrv only has a lower bound, but ip_mc_reset() stores it
into the u8 in_device::mr_qrv, and the IGMPv3 retransmit counters filled
from it (crcount, sf_crcount) are u8 as well. Anything above 255
silently wraps. With 256, mr_qrv becomes 0, every
"in_dev->mr_qrv ?: sysctl_igmp_qrv" falls back to 256, which truncates
to 0 again in crcount, and igmpv3_send_cr() never puts the state change
records for the group into a report. The older version querier present
timeout (mr_qrv * mr_qi + mr_qri) also collapses to just mr_qri.

Unlike MLD there is no WARN_ON() here, the reports just go missing.

Cap the sysctl at U8_MAX, the largest value mr_qrv can actually hold.

Fixes: a9fe8e29945d ("ipv4: implement igmp_qrv sysctl to tune igmp robustness variable")
