Yes, DHCPv6 support is currently not upstream. Facebook makes
extensive use of IPv6, you could test Josef Bacik patch series which
is using Michael Chang's DHCPv6 patches (not have reference handy,
check grub-devel archives). Michael intended to clean up his patches
but so far did not follow up. We definitely appreciate independent
testing of these patches.
