that's a great idea; what would be the most consistent ftrace syntax for this do you think? I noticed that hist triggers append a modifier to the field name so would something like
"dst.ipv6 == ::1"
Yeah, I think just having ":" in the name without quotes can help the filter know that it's a ipv6 id.
Hmm, although we may want to do the same for mac addresses. But we can determine the difference by the field size. If it's 6 bytes, it's a mac, if it's 128 bits, then ipv6.
