At this point everything is already in place to make IPv6 happen, we just
need to add a few rules, remove some checks for IPv4-only, and document

No changes from V1.

Yeah - a patch series with documentation updates!

Heh. Truthfully I was scared you'd NAK it if I didn't update the docs :-P

Should this be err9, with a step that undoes the previous action when
you get past the err8 failure point?

I had somehow convinced myself not (because networkAddGeneralIp6tablesRules() undoes itself if it fails), but of course that logic is wrong - it's the *previous* step that needs undoing, so you are absolutely correct. I've squashed in the appropriate call.

Misleading message; maybe "cannot write to %s to disable IPv6".

Yup.

At first glance, this logic didn't sound right.  You only set v4present
if you found a dhcp interface, ignoring other ipv4 interfaces.  Then
again,...

you only use it to disable dnsmasq rather than all things related to
IPv4, so maybe it would be better to rename the variable to dhcp_present
instead of v4present.

Sure. I almost did that originally, and can't say why I didn't (I guess my left brain liked the symmetry of the names or something).

ACK with those nits addressed.
