When we boot from a DHCP-supplied filename, we previously relied on
the fact that the current working URI is set to tftp://[next-server]/
in order to resolve the filename into a full tftp:// URI.  However,
this process will eliminate the distinction between filenames with and
without initial slashes:

 cwuri="tftp://10.0.0.1/" filename="vmlinuz"  => URI="tftp://10.0.0.1/vmlinuz"
 cwuri="tftp://10.0.0.1/" filename="/vmlinuz" => URI="tftp://10.0.0.1/vmlinuz"

This distinction is important for some TFTP servers.  We now
explicitly construct a string of the form

 "tftp://[next-server]/filename"

so that a filename with an initial slash will result in a URI
containing a double-slash, e.g.

 "tftp://10.0.0.1//vmlinuz"

The TFTP code always strips a single initial slash, and so ends up
presenting the correct path to the server.

URIs entered explicitly by users at the command line must include a
double slash if they want an initial slash presented to the TFTP
server:

  "kernel tftp://10.0.0.1/vmlinuz"  => filename="vmlinuz"
  "kernel tftp://10.0.0.1//vmlinuz" => filename="/vmlinuz"

Add yet another ugly hack to iscsiboot.c, this time to allow the user to
inhibit the shutdown/removal of the iSCSI INT13 device (and the network
devices, since they are required for the iSCSI device to function).

On the plus side, the fact that shutdown() now takes flags to
differentiate between shutdown-for-exit and shutdown-for-boot means that
another ugly hack (to allow returning via the PXE stack on BIOSes that
have broken INT 18 calls) will be easier.

I feel dirty.

Add ability for network devices to flag link up/down state to the
networking core.

Autobooting code will now wait for link-up before attempting DHCP.

IPoIB reflects the Infiniband link state as the network device link state
(which is not strictly correct; we also need a succesful IPoIB IPv4
broadcast group join), but is probably more informative.

Allow for settings to be described by something other than a DHCP option
tag if desirable.  Currently used only for the MAC address setting.

Separate out fake DHCP packet creation code from dhcp.c to fakedhcp.c.

Remove notion of settings from dhcppkt.c.

Rationalise dhcp.c to use settings API only for final registration of the
DHCP options, rather than using {store,fetch}_setting throughout.

Some shuffling around of the image management code; this needs tidying up.

iSCSI hack.

were loaded from).  The code to identify this device isn't present yet,
but the code to act upon the knowledge is.

Call netdevice's poll() and transmit() methods only when device is open.

"boot" command to attempt booting from within the command shell, fall back
to shell if boot fails for any reason.

typical build will now include 880 bytes of PCI support code, compared to
2327 bytes in Etherboot 5.4.

(There is a slight cost of around 5 extra bytes per access to a
non-constant config space address; this should be an overall win.
Driver-specific accesses will usually be to constant addresses, for
which there is no additional cost.)

Yes, you really can do it in 65 bytes.
