Nacked-by: Nikolay Aleksandrov [off-list ref] I think we just discussed this a day ago? It is the same problem - while we all agree the values should follow the RFC, users have had the option to set any values forever (even non-RFC compliant ones). This change risks breaking user-space.
OK, I misunderstood your reply in last mail. I thought you only object to disabling no meaning values(e.g. set timer to 0, which not is forbid by the RFC). I don't know you also reject to follow a *MUST* rule defined in the RFC.
Users are free to follow the RFC or not, we can't force them at this point. This should've been done when the config option was added long time ago.
OK, I will stop working on this path. Thanks Hangbin
