Shaved around 100 bytes off vsprintf.o. It's now 50 bytes smaller than
the old implementation and provides much more conformant semantics,
including the ability to return the number of characters that would have
been printed to the string had the buffer been big enough. (iSCSI needs
this functionality).
At least cope with "%llx" by reading the correct-sized va_arg from the
stack, even if we don't yet print it out.
At some point, vsprintf() needs to be fixed up so that it can correctly
cope with limited-sized buffers (i.e. vsnprintf), long longs, and
standard format specifiers (e.g. "%04x"). We should also remove the
special types (MAC addresses and IP addresses). This would then enable
us to use gcc's ability to type-check printf format strings.
I want to get to the point where any header in include/ reflects a
standard user-level header (e.g. a POSIX header), while everything that's
specific to gPXE lives in include/gpxe/. Headers that reflect a Linux
header (e.g. if_ether.h) should also be in include/gpxe/, with the same
name as the Linux header and, preferably, the same names used for the
definitions.
Moved if_ether.h and if_arp.h to include/gpxe, for consistency with Linux
kernel.
Removed obsolete struct arprequest from if_arp.h and put it in nic.c so
that nic.c will still compile. ARP will very shortly be handled by
net/arp.c instead.
Added errno, strerror and the "%m" printf metacharacter. These will allow
us to return proper PXE status codes, while simultaneously allowing for
more consistent error reporting (complete with verbose error messages as a
build-time option).
