brSetInetAddress can only set a single IP address on the bridge, and uses a method (ioctl(SIOCSETIFADDR)) that only works for IPv4. Replace it and brSetInetNetmask with a single function that uses the external "ip addr add" command to add an address/prefix to the interface - this supports IPv6, and allows adding multiple addresses to the interface. Although it isn't currently used in the code, we also add a brDelInetAddress for completeness' sake. Also, while we're modifying bridge.c, we change brSetForwardDelay and brSetEnableSTP to use the new virCommand API rather than the deprecated virRun, and also log an error message in bridge_driver.c if either of those fail (previously the failure would be completely silent).
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
