This patch set tries to make support of configuring IPv6 network interface through the DHCPv6 protocol. A new command, net_bootp6, is therefore introduced to serve the purpose. You can think it as DHCPv6/IPv6 version of the existing net_bootp command.
In addition to that, the UEFI IPv6 PXE support can be easily done by sharing the same routine with net_bootp6 to parse DHCPv6 Reply packet cached in the firmware. changes in v1: - Added upper boundary check in find_dhcpv6_option - Fix memory leak and freeing NULL pointer - Improved error message logging to not get lost - Use grub_cpu_to_be16_compile_time for endianess conversion when appropriate - Removed grub_dhcpv6_dns_servers structure and use 16 bytes blocks - Avoud magic numbers and use more descriptive sizeof when populating netbuff - Move include/grub/efi/api.h to UEFI IPv6 PXE support patch - Document the net_bootp6 command _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
