period before updating to the new driver API (which can cope with
having TX packets in progress).

(This actually matters once you try using TCP, because you *will*
receive full-sized frames.)

Shrink to 4kB for now.  We might want to see if it can be made
genuinely indicative of the RX ring size in the new TCP
implementation.

Update rtl8139 driver to instantiate an SPI interface with a three-wire
device attached.

(since SPI bit-bashing will require different delay semantics).

--nulltrap to the make target at the moment.)

as a result of our memory map editing, so strip out any empty regions.

Allow our functions to return a non-zero, non-error status (since the
INT 13 Extensions Check has to return the API version in the register
that is otherwise always used for the error code).

Report a non-zero API version from the INT 13 Extensions Check; GRUB

We now always add PCI and PnP headers even for ISA ROMs; there's no harm
in doing so.

UNDI loader is still missing.

AoE now uses the retry timer mechanism.

seems cleanest for now.

point trying to use the old boot sequence.  Replaced with a call to the
AoE demo code, so that people can at least build and try something useful.

elegant, but it works).

async_wait(), though we may wish to move this higher up the stack, and
consider making the block device model asynchronous.  (There is only a
marginal cost for synchronous devices, since they can simply call
async_done() before returning; async_wait() will work seamlessly in this
situation).

This is the core portion of the async I/O interface.
