[autoboot] Connect SAN disk during a filename boot, if applicable
For performing installations direct to a SAN target, it can be very
useful to hook a SAN disk and then proceed to perform a filename boot.
For example, the user may wish to hook the (empty) SAN installation
disk and then boot into the OS installer via TFTP. This provides an
alternative mechanism to using "keep-san" and relying on the BIOS to
fall through to boot from the installation media, which is unreliable
on many BIOSes.
When a root-path is specified in addition to a boot filename, attempt
to hook the root-path as a SAN disk before booting from the specified
filename. Since the root-path may be used for non-SAN purposes
(e.g. an NFS root mount point), ignore the root-path if it contains a
URI scheme that we do not support.

[pci] Allow pci_vpd_init() return status to be ignored
Most xxx_init() functions are void functions with no failure cases.
Allow pci_vpd_init() to be used in the same way. (Subsequent calls to
pci_vpd_read() etc. will fail if pci_vpd_init() fails.)

[nvo] Remove the non-volatile options fragment list
Since its implementation several years ago, no driver has used a
fragment list containing more than a single fragment. Simplify the
NVO core and the drivers that use it by removing the whole concept of
the fragment list, and using a simple (address,length) pair instead.

Allow functions other than realloc() to be used to reallocate DHCP

[dhcp] Remove redundant length fields in struct dhcp_packet
The max_len field is never used, and the len field is used only by
dhcp_tx(). Remove these two fields, and perform the necessary trivial

[dhcp] Use Ethernet-compatible chaddr, if possible
For IPoIB, we currently use the hardware address (i.e. the eight-byte
GUID) as the DHCP chaddr. This works, but some PXE servers (notably
Altiris RDP) refuse to respond if the chaddr field is anything other
than six bytes in length.
We already have the notion of an Ethernet-compatible link-layer
address, which is used in the iBFT (the design of which similarly
fails to account for non-Ethernet link layers). Use this as the first
preferred alternative to the actual link-layer address when
constructing the DHCP chaddr field.

Enhance the information collected by the function recorder to include
the call site and entry/exit counts. This allows fnrec.pl to produce
a call tree such as:
step (from core/getkey.c:46 = 0x17e90) {
ref_increment (from core/process.c:93 = 0x73ec) { }
net_step (from core/process.c:96 = 0x73f1) {
net_poll (from net/netdevice.c:741 = 0xbce6) {
netdev_poll (from net/netdevice.c:700 = 0xbc58) { }
netdev_rx_dequeue (from net/netdevice.c:709 = 0xbc65) { }
}
}
ref_decrement (from core/process.c:96 = 0x73f9) { }
}
Note that inlined functions are reported, confusingly, as extra calls
to the *containing* function. Minimise this confusion by adding the
attribute "no_instrument_function" to all functions declared as
inline. (Static functions that have been inlined autonomously by gcc
will still be problematic, but these are far fewer in number.)

Some network cards automatically strip the VLAN header, providing the
VLAN tag via a side channel such as a completion queue entry. These
cards need to be able to report receive completions directly against
the relevant VLAN device.

[cmdline] Match user expectations for &&, ||, goto, and exit
The && and || operators should be left-associative, since that is how
they are treated in most other languages (including C and Unix
shell). For example, in the command:
dhcp net0 && goto dhcp_ok || echo No DHCP on net0
if the "dhcp net0" fails then the "echo" should be executed.
After an "exit" or a successful "goto", further commands on the same
line should never be executed. For example:
goto somewhere && echo This should never be printed
exit 0 && echo This should never be printed
exit 1 && echo This should never be printed
An "exit" should cause the current shell or script to terminate and
return the specified exit status to its caller. For example:
chain test.ipxe && echo Success || echo Failure
[in test.ipxe]
#!ipxe
exit 0
should echo "Success".

Some newer versions of gcc (observed with a patched gcc 4.5.1) seem to
treat our offsetof() implementation as not being a compile-time
constant. Fix by using __builtin_offsetof() when available. (As with
the original offsetof() macro, this code is copied from the Linux
kernel's stddef.h.)

VLAN headers are allowed to contain a VLAN tag of zero, indicating
that the header specifies only a priority and that the packet does not
belong to any VLAN. The easiest way to handle this is to treat VLAN 0
as being a normal VLAN.

Command implementations tend to include a substantial amount of common
boilerplate code revolving around the parsing of command-line options
and arguments. This increases the size cost of each command.
Introduce an option-parsing library that abstracts out the common
operations involved in command implementations. This enables the size
of each individual command to be reduced, and also enhances
consistency between commands.
Total size of the library is 704 bytes, to be amortised across all
command implementations.

[netdevice] Allow per-device receive queue processing to be frozen
Several use cases (e.g. the UNDI API and the EFI SNP API) require
access to the raw network device receive queue, and so currently use
manual calls to netdev_poll() on a specific network device in order to
prevent received packets from being processed by the network stack.
As an alternative, provide a flag that allows receive queue processing
to be frozen on a per-device basis. When receive queue processing is
frozen, packets will be enqueued as normal, but will not be
automatically dequeued and passed up the network stack.
