Gave asynchronous operations approximate POSIX signal semantics. This
will enable us to cascade async operations, which is necessary in order to
properly support DNS. (For example, an HTTP request may have to redirect
to a new location and will have to perform a new DNS lookup, so we can't
just rely on doing the name lookup at the time of parsing the initial
URL).
Anything other than HTTP is probably broken right now; I'll fix the others
up asap.
We can't assert that the RX engine is idle in iscsi_done(), because it
may be called during the RX data processor, before the RX engine
transitions back to idle. It doesn't really matter if the RX engine
isn't idle when iscsi_done() is called, because it will just pick up
where it left off on the next call. (The same is not true for the TX
engine, so keep the TX engine assertion.)
When login fails, leave the session open but not in full feature
phase. In iscsi_issue(), detect this state and immediately refuse the
operation. This avoids trying multiple logins when scsi.c tries
several times to read the drive capacity.
Add the concept of a "user pointer" (similar to the void __user * in
the kernel), which encapsulates the information needed to refer to an
external buffer. Under normal operation, this can just be a void *
equivalent, but under -DKEEP_IT_REAL it would be a segoff_t equivalent.
Use this concept to avoid the need for bounce buffers in int13.c,
which reduces memory usage and opens up the possibility of using
multi-sector reads.
Extend the block-device API and the SCSI block device implementation
to support multi-sector reads.
Update iscsi.c to use user buffers.
Move the obsolete portions of realmode.h to old_realmode.h.
MS-DOS now boots an order of magnitude faster over iSCSI (~10 seconds
from power-up to C:> prompt in bochs).
iSCSI writes seem to be working (at least, the ethereal trace shows no
errors; still need to verify data integrity).
SCSI response PDUs are handled: status and sense data (if available) are
returned via the scsi_command structure.
Updated iSCSI session parameter usage.
