[tcp] Allow out-of-order receive queue to be discarded
Allow packets in the receive queue to be discarded in order to free up
memory. This avoids a potential deadlock condition in which the
missing packet can never be received because the receive queue is

Maintain a queue of received packets, so that lost packets need not
result in retransmission of the entire TCP window.
Increase the TCP window to 8kB, in order that we can potentially
transmit enough duplicate ACKs to trigger Fast Retransmission at the
sender.
Using a 10MB HTTP download in qemu-kvm with an artificial drop rate of

[virtio] Replace virtio-net with native iPXE driver
This patch adds a native iPXE virtio-net driver and removes the legacy
Etherboot virtio-net driver. The main reasons for doing this are:
1. Multiple virtio-net NICs are now supported by iPXE. The legacy
driver kept global state and caused issues in virtual machines with
more than one virtio-net device.
2. Faster downloads. The native iPXE driver downloads 100 MB over
HTTP in 12s, the legacy Etherboot driver in 37s. This simple
benchmark uses KVM with tap networking and the Python
SimpleHTTPServer both running on the same host.
Changes to core virtio code reduce vring descriptors to 256 (QEMU uses
128 for virtio-blk and 256 for virtio-net) and change the opaque token
from u16 to void*. Lowering the descriptor count reduces memory
consumption. The void* opaque token change makes driver code simpler.

Weak functions whose visibility is hidden may be inlined due to a bug
in GCC. Explicitly mark weak functions noinline to work around the
problem.
This makes the PXE_MENU config option work again, the PXE boot menu
was never being called because the compiler inlined a weak stub
function.
The GCC bug was identified and fixed by Richard Sandiford
<rdsandiford@googlemail.com> but in the meantime iPXE needs to
implement a workaround.

[interface] Allow for non-pass-through interface methods
xfer_vredirect() should not be allowed to propagate to a pass-through
interface. For example, when an HTTPS connection is opened, the
redirect message should cause the TLS layer to reopen the TCP socket,
rather than causing the HTTP layer to disconnect from the TLS layer.
Fix by allowing for non-pass-through interface methods, and setting
xfer_vredirect() to be one such method.
This is slightly ugly, in that it complicates the notion of an
interface method call by adding a "pass-through" / "non-pass-through"
piece of metadata. However, the only current user of xfer_vredirect()
is iscsi.c, which uses it only because we don't yet have an
ioctl()-style call for retrieving the underlying socket address.
The new interface infrastructure allows for such a call to be created,
at which time this sole user of xfer_vredirect() can be removed,
xfer_vredirect() can cease to be an interface method and become simply
a wrapper around xfer_vreopen(), and the concept of a non-pass-through
interface method can be reverted.

[interface] Convert all data-xfer interfaces to generic interfaces
Remove data-xfer as an interface type, and replace data-xfer
interfaces with generic interfaces supporting the data-xfer methods.
Filter interfaces (as used by the TLS layer) are handled using the
generic pass-through interface capability. A side-effect of this is
that deliver_raw() no longer exists as a data-xfer method. (In
practice this doesn't lose any efficiency, since there are no
instances within the current codebase where xfer_deliver_raw() is used
to pass data to an interface supporting the deliver_raw() method.)

[interface] Expand object interface to allow for polymorphic interfaces
We have several types of object interface at present (data-xfer, job
control, name resolution), and there is some duplication of
functionality between them. For example, job_done(), job_kill() and
xfer_close() are almost isomorphic to each other.
This updated version of the object interface mechanism allows for each
interface to export an arbitrary list of supported operations.
Advantages include:
Operations methods now receive a pointer to the object, rather than
a pointer to the interface. This allows an object to, for example,
implement a single close() method that can handle close() operations
from any of its exposed interfaces.
The close() operation is implemented as a generic operation (rather
than having specific variants for data-xfer, job control, etc.).
This will allow functions such as monojob_wait() to be used to wait
for e.g. a name resolution to complete.
The amount of boilerplate code required in objects is reduced, not
least because it is no longer necessary to include per-interface
methods that simply use container_of() to derive a pointer to the
object and then tail-call to a common per-object method.
The cost of adding new operations is reduced; adding a new data-xfer
operation such as stat() no longer incurs the penalty of adding a
.stat member to the operations table of all existing data-xfer
interfaces.
The data-xfer, job control and name resolution interfaces have not yet
been updated to use the new interface mechanism, but the code will
still compile and run.

Currently, handling of URI escapes is ad-hoc; escaped strings are
stored as-is in the URI structure, and it is up to the individual
protocol to unescape as necessary. This is error-prone and expensive
in terms of code size. Modify this behavior by unescaping in
parse_uri() and escaping in unparse_uri() those fields that typically
handle URI escapes (hostname, user, password, path, query, fragment),
and allowing unparse_uri() to accept a subset of fields to print so
it can be easily used to generate e.g. the escaped HTTP path?query
request.

[dhcp] Add generic facility for using cached network settings
When a DHCP session is started (using autoboot or a command-line `dhcp
net0'), check whether the new setting use-cached (DHCP option 175.178)
is TRUE; if so, skip DHCP and rely on currently registered
settings. This lets one combine a static IP with autoboot.
Before checking the use-cached setting, call a weak
get_cached_dhcpack() hook that can be implemented by particular builds
of gPXE supporting some fashion of retrieving a cached DHCPACK packet.
If one is available, it is registered as an options source, and then
either that packet's option 175.178 or the user's prior manual
use-cached setting can allow skipping duplicate DHCP.
Using cached packets is not the default because DHCP servers are often
configured to give gPXE different options than they give a vendor PXE
client; in order to break the infinite loop of PXE chaining, one would
need to load a gPXE with an embedded image that does something more
than autoboot.
