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.)

Generic PCI code now handles 64-bit BARs correctly when setting
"membase"; drivers should need to call pci_bar_start() only if they want
to use BARs other than the first memory or I/O BAR.

Split rarely-used PCI functions out into pciextra.c.

Core PCI code is now 662 bytes (down from 1308 bytes in Etherboot 5.4).
284 bytes of this saving comes from the pci/pciextra split.

Cosmetic changes to lots of drivers (e.g. vendor_id->vendor in order to
match the names used in Linux).

Add method for hooking real-mode interrupt vectors.

Use .text16.data section with "aw" attributes, to avoid section type
conflicts when placing both code and data into .text16.

Add __from_{text16,data16}.

Avoid optimisation errors under -fstrict-aliasing.

between the low half stored in the static variable rm_sp, and the high
half stored on the prot_call() stack, because:

  Just using the stack would screw up when a prot_call()ed routine
  executes a real_call(); it would have no way to find the current top of
  the RM stack.

  Extending rm_sp to rm_esp would not be safe, because the guarantee that
  rm_sp must return to the correct value by the time an external
  real-mode call returns applies only to %sp, not to %esp.

interrupt vectors, for example, will be easiest to handle if placed in
.text16.

from protected-mode code.

Set up %ds to point to .data16 in prot_to_real, so that code specified
via REAL_EXEC() and friends can access variables in .data16.

Move most real-mode librm variables from .text16 to .data16.

.data16.  librm will need to supply "char *data16", i.e. the virtual
address of the start of .data16.

init_fns() are called from main().  We need to think about initial

install_prealloc.  I *think* these will suffice for all the 16-bit

However, it's worth adding a .size directive so that objdump reports the
correct sizes for the code fragments.

EBADIMG has been replaced by ENOEXEC, and EIMGRET by ECANCELED.

Doing so, in fact, seems to expose an assembler bug; (a-b-0) is
apparently not the same as (a-b).  Go figure.

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.

Added memswap().

PXE code now compiles without errors (though it won't actually work).
