[Qemu-devel] IPv6 support for -net user?

[Ivan Shmakov <oneingray@gmail.com>]

	I'm writing an iPXE mini-HOWTO (in Russian), using QEMU and
	-net user in examples (so that they're runnable by unprivileged
	users.)

	However, the QEMU documentation [1] seems to suggest that only
	IPv4 is implemented for -net user, which made me curious on
	whether the IPv6 support is planned to be added anytime soon?

	Personally, I'm interested mostly in QEMU sending router
	(prefix) advertisements to the “guest”, and forwarding TCP and
	UDP traffic, although support for recursive DNS discovery and
	DHCPv6 may also be nice to have.

	TIA.

PS.  I hope to announce the mini-HOWTO itself later this week, in both
	the iPXE [2] and planning-ru@ [3] mailing lists.
