These patches are on top of Michael Chang's bootp6 code (which we also really
need so it would be great if those could go in as well). At Facebook we have
ipv6 only clusters that we need to be able to provision over the network. The
current grub2 support for ipv6 is broken in a few ways. The rou
Currently we cannot talk to ipv6 addresses outside of our local link area
because we don't setup our routes properly nor do we talk to the router
properly. Currently net_ipv6_autoconf adds routes for the local link prefix and
ties it to the global link device. This isn't helpful at all, we comple
The EFI SNP documentation isn't super clear on the value that is returned in
txbuf when calling into GetStatus. The documentation says its the pointer to
the recycle buffer, but the documentation for Transmit() says that it should be
the pointer to the buffer that we transmitted. On the boxes I'm
In order to talk to link local ipv6 addresses we need to have a route out of the
link local interface for this to work. Thanks,

This patch improperly assumes that GRUB is the only thing in EFI that
transmits. Your patch surely fixed your machine but likely breaks some
other machines. Could you instead make an explicit check for (void *)1 and
add a comment on which machine it's necessary?

Making user aware of such deeply technical stuff is almost always bad
thing. Moreover it's not always easy to set this variable early enough

Anyway that's not important, what is
important is that the current code doesn't work with hardware that
exists in the wild. If it's a firmware bug then fine, what do users do
if they have buggy firmware that isn't being updated anymore? I think
making grub more tolerant to crappy firmware is a g

Actually since recently we try to ensure that grub *is* the only user
of network interface.
