Improved IPv6 support
As the IPv6 protocol allows a single device to have more than one IPv6 address, the previous implementation did not provide all IPv6 information. It would reject all except the last parsed IPv6 address. NOTE: This implementation will break the previous API. This change removes the ethtool.etherinfo.ipv6_address and ethtool.etherinfo.ipv6_netmask members. A new member is added, ethtool.etherinfo.ipv6_addresses (in plural). This contains a tupple list containing of ethtool.etherinfo_ipv6addr objects, one object for each configured IPv6 address on the device. These objects have the following members available: .address - The IPv6 address .netmask - The IPv6 netmask (in bit notation) .scope - A string with the IPv6 address scope Example code: import ethtool devs = ethtool.get_interfaces_info('eth0') for ip6 in devs[0].ipv6_addresses: print "[%s] %s/%i" % (ip6.scope, ip6.address, ip6.netmask) Signed-off-by: David Sommerseth <davids@redhat.com>
