Tore Anderson 0c25daad38 [efi] Enable NET_PROTO_IPV6 by default IPv6 PXE was included in the UEFI specification over eight years ago, specifically in version 2.3 (Errata D). http://www.uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/UEFI_Spec_2_3_D.pdf When iPXE is being chainloaded from a UEFI firmware performing a PXE boot in an IPv6 network, it is essential that iPXE supports IPv6 as well. I understand that the reason for NET_PROTO_IPV6 being disabled by default (in src/config/general.h) is that it would cause certain space-constrained build targets to become too large. However, this should not be an issue for EFI builds. It is also worth noting that RFC 6540 makes a clear recommendation that IPv6 support should not be considered optional. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6540 Modified-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org> Signed-off-by: Tore Anderson <tore@fud.no> Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>		2020-10-14 14:51:29 +01:00
