[gPXE-devel] Initial IPv6 Implementation for testing

[matthew at theiselins.net]

Hi all,

This patch series implements initial, "alpha", support for IPv6 in gPXE.

There is still a lot of work to be done to bring IPv6 to a similar level to IPv4.

Supported features in this patch series are:
* Stateless autoconfiguration
* AAAA records in DNS
* IPv6 routing for local and global access
* A network boot from an IPv6 server (via HTTP) works

After this initial set of commits, DHCPv6 support will be implemented. If you are using DHCPv6 but do not have a method for stateless autoconfiguration, testing with this code will not be possible.

IPv6 support is enabled by defineing NET_PROTO_IPV6 in src/config/general.h.

Cheers,

Matthew
