  Set the configuration for the EFI IPv6 network stack running on the communication
  device this EFI IPv6 Configuration Protocol instance manages.

  This function is used to set the configuration data of type DataType for the EFI
  IPv6 network stack running on the communication device this EFI IPv6 Configuration
  Protocol instance manages.

  The DataSize is used to calculate the count of structure instances in the Data for
  some DataType that multiple structure instances are allowed.

  This function is always non-blocking. When setting some type of configuration data,
  an asynchronous process is invoked to check the correctness of the data, such as
  doing Duplicate Address Detection on the manually set local IPv6 addresses.
  EFI_NOT_READY is returned immediately to indicate that such an asynchronous process
  is invoked and the process is not finished yet. The caller willing to get the result
  of the asynchronous process is required to call RegisterDataNotify() to register an
  event on the specified configuration data. Once the event is signaled, the caller
  can call GetData() to get back the configuration data in order to know the result.
  For other types of configuration data that do not require an asynchronous configuration
  process, the result of the operation is immediately returned.

  @param[in]     This           Pointer to the EFI_IP6_CONFIG_PROTOCOL instance.
  @param[in]     DataType       The type of data to set.
  @param[in]     DataSize       Size of the buffer pointed to by Data in bytes.
  @param[in]     Data           The data buffer to set. The type of the data buffer is
                                associated with the DataType.

  @retval EFI_SUCCESS           The specified configuration data for the EFI IPv6
                                network stack is set successfully.
  @retval EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER One or more of the following are TRUE:
                                - This is NULL.
                                - One or more fields in Data and DataSize do not match the
                                  requirement of the data type indicated by DataType.
  @retval EFI_WRITE_PROTECTED   The specified configuration data is read-only or the specified
                                configuration data can not be set under the current policy
  @retval EFI_ACCESS_DENIED     Another set operation on the specified configuration
                                data is already in process.
  @retval EFI_NOT_READY         An asynchronous process is invoked to set the specified
                                configuration data and the process is not finished yet.

  Get the configuration data for the EFI IPv6 network stack running on the communication

  This function returns the configuration data of type DataType for the EFI IPv6 network
  stack running on the communication device this EFI IPv6 Configuration Protocol instance
  manages.

  The caller is responsible for allocating the buffer used to return the specified
  configuration data and the required size will be returned to the caller if the size of
  the buffer is too small.

  EFI_NOT_READY is returned if the specified configuration data is not ready due to an
  already in progress asynchronous configuration process. The caller can call RegisterDataNotify()
  to register an event on the specified configuration data. Once the asynchronous configuration
  process is finished, the event will be signaled and a subsequent GetData() call will return
  the specified configuration data.

                                and the required size is returned in DataSize.
  @retval EFI_NOT_READY         The specified configuration data is not ready due to an already in
                                progress asynchronous configuration process.
