[Qemu-devel] [PATCHv2 00/16] slirp: Adding IPv6 support to Qemu -net user mode

[Samuel Thibault]

Hello,

This is a respin of IPv6 in Qemu -net user mode.

These patches add ICMPv6, NDP, and make UDP and TCP compatible with
IPv6. We have made some refactoring to make current code compatible with
IPv6.

Some patches, like 2 and 13, can be reviewed using
"interdiff -w /dev/null patchfile"
to get rid of the indentation.

Differences with version 1 are:

- the encoding of the option to specify the configured network: this is
still -net ip6-net=addr/len in the user interface, but decomposed as
ip6-prefix and ip6-prefixlen in the QAPI.
- the RA timer has been made per-slirp instead of global.
- the default host IPs have been made fc00::2 and fc00::3, coherent with
the IPv4 case.
