Add the notion of the settings hierarchy, complete with
register/unregister routines.
Rename set->store and get->fetch to avoid naming conflicts with get/put
as used in reference counting.
[Settings] Start revamping the configuration settings API.
Add the concept of an abstract configuration setting, comprising a (DHCP)
tag value and an associated byte sequence.
Add the concept of a settings namespace.
Add functions for extracting string, IPv4 address, and signed and
unsigned integer values from configuration settings (analogous to
dhcp_snprintf(), dhcp_ipv4_option(), etc.).
Update functions for parsing and formatting named/typed options to work
with new settings API.
Update NVO commands and config UI to use new settings API.
Timers are sometimes required before the call to initialise(), so we
cannot rely on initialise() to set up the timers before use.
Also fix a potential integer overflow issue in generic_currticks_udelay()
Add missing comments to timer code.
Lock system if no suitable timer source is found.
Fix initialisation order so that timers are initialised before code that
needs to use them.
[Settings] Allow encapsulated options to be specified as named settings
Allow encapsulated options to be specified as e.g. "175.3". As a
side-effect, change the separator character for the type field from "." to
":"; for example, the IP address pseudo-option is now "175.3:ipv4".
[Settings] Add int16, int32 and hex-string configuration setting types
Add parse and display routines for 16-bit and 32-bit integer configuration
settings.
Add parse and display routines for hex-string configuration settings.
Assume hex-string as a configuration setting type if no type is explicitly
specified.
show_setting() and related functions now return an "actual length" in the
style of snprintf(). This is to allow consumers to allocate buffers large
enough to hold the formatted setting.
[prefix] Cope with image source addresses outside base memory
When PMM is used, the gPXE image source will no longer be in base memory.
Decompression of .text16 and .data16 can therefore no longer be done in
real mode.
Use BBS installation check to see if we need to hook INT19 even on a PnP
BIOS.
Verify that $PnP signature is paragraph-aligned; bochs/qemu BIOS provides
a dummy $PnP signature with no valid entry point, and deliberately
unaligns the signature to indicate that it is not properly valid.
Print message if INT19 is hooked.
Attempt to use PMM even if BBS check failed.
WinPE's pxeboot.n12 takes the BufferLimit returned by gPXE (indicating
the size of gPXE's internal DHCP packet buffers) and erroneously passes
it in as BufferSize (indicating the size of pxeboot.n12's DHCP packet
buffer). If these don't match, then pxeboot.n12 ends up instructing gPXE
to overwrite parts of its data segment.
Change gPXE's internal DHCP packet buffers to be exactly
sizeof(BOOTPLAYER_t) bytes to work around this problem.
ROM initialisation vector now attempts to allocate a 2MB block using
PMM. If successful, it copies the ROM image to this block, then
shrinks the ROM image to allow for more option ROMs. If unsuccessful,
it leaves the ROM as-is.
ROM BEV now attempts to return to the BIOS, resorting to INT 18 only
if the BIOS stack has been corrupted.
[Makefile] Use bin/VVVVDDDD.rom instead of bin/pci_VVVV_DDDD.rom
The generate-by-PCI-device-ID rules (bin/pci_VVVV_DDDD.rom) are generally
used for building actual ROM images to be burned, and the burning
utilities generally run under some DOS variant. Change the filename from
pci_VVVV_DDDD.rom to VVVVDDDD.rom so that it is compatible with the DOS
8.3-character filename limit.
[PXEXT] Add PXENV_FILE_EXEC call to PXE extensions API.
This allows pxelinux to execute arbitrary gPXE commands. This is
remarkably unsafe (not least because some of the commands will assume
full ownership of memory and do nasty things like edit the e820 map
underneath the calling pxelinux), but it does allow access to the
"sanboot" command.

Timer subsystem initialization code in core/timer.c
Split the BIOS and RTDSC timer drivers from i386_timer.c
Split arch/i386/firmware/pcbios/bios.c into the RTSDC
timer driver and arch/i386/core/nap.c
Split the headers properly:
include/unistd.h - delay functions to be used by the
gPXE core and drivers.
include/gpxe/timer.h - the fimer subsystem interface
to be used by the timer drivers
and currticks() to be used by
the code gPXE subsystems.
include/latch.h - removed
include/timer.h - scheduled for removal. Some driver
are using currticks, which is
only for core subsystems.

RFC 4390 provides for the DHCP client identifier to contain the link-layer
hardware type and MAC address when the MAC address exceeds 16 bytes.
However, the hardware type field is only 8 bits; we were assuming 16 bits.
[Infiniband] Add preliminary support for multi-port devices.
Arbel and Hermon cards both have multiple ports. Add the
infrastructure required to register each port as a separate IB
device. Don't yet register more than one port, since registration
will currently fail unless a valid link is detected.
Use ib_*_{set,get}_{drv,owner}data wrappers to access driver- and
owner-private data on Infiniband structures.
Pull out common code for handling management datagrams from arbel.c
and hermon.c into infiniband.c.
Add port number to struct ib_device.
Add open(), close() and mad() methods to struct ib_device_operations.
