[U-Boot-Users] Do we need ipv6 enhancement for u-boot?

[夏竹青]

Hi all,
Recently,I'm just investigating about u-boot,something about ipv6 is
confused me.
I can find the definition of ipv6 address table entry in file
\drivers\e1000.h, but nothing else about ipv6 using.
So do we need support ipv6 in dhcp and tftp?

U-boot doesn't currently support IPV6. Every once in a while somebody 
brings up this topic, but in general there hasn't been a lot of interest.

If you'd like to add support, we're open to the idea.

I don't know if you need it. I don;t need it (yet), but it would be
nice to have. Feel free to submt patches.
