Apologies if you get this twice.] It turns out that IPv6 doesn't care about netmask, but instead uses "prefix length" to determine the subnet, but the iBFT subsystem still just supports netmask. These two patches enable IPv6 iBFT (iscsi booting) by adding support for IPv6 prefix and prefix length. Open-iscsi changes to use these new values will be introduced once these changes are present.
