The prior net80211 model of physical-layer behavior for drivers was
overly simplistic and limited the drivers that could be written.  To
be more flexible, split the driver-provided list of supported rates by
band, and add a means for specifying a list of supported channels.
Allow drivers to specify a hardware channel value that will be tied to
uses of the channel.

Expose net80211_duration() to drivers, and make the rate it uses in
its computations configurable, so that it can be used in calculating
durations that must be set in hardware for ACK and CTS packets. Add
net80211_cts_duration() for the common case of calculating the
duration for a CTS packet.

A management interface is the component through which both local and
remote management agents are accessed.

This new implementation of a management interface allows for the user
to react to timed-out transactions, and also allows for cancellation
of in-progress transactions.

The IBA specification refers to management "interfaces" and "agents".
The interface is the component that connects to the queue pair and
sends and receives MADs; the agent is the component that constructs
the reply to the MAD.

Rename the IB_{QPN,QKEY,QPT} constants as a first step towards making
this separation in gPXE.

The Communication Manager is responsible for handling the setup and
teardown of RC connections.

Queue pairs are now assumed to be created in the INIT state, with a
call to ib_modify_qp() required to bring the queue pair to the RTS
state.

ib_modify_qp() no longer takes a modification list; callers should
modify the relevant queue pair parameters (e.g. qkey) directly and
then call ib_modify_qp() to synchronise the changes to the hardware.

The packet sequence number is now a property of the queue pair, rather
than of the device.

Each queue pair may have an associated address vector.  For RC queue
pairs, this is the address vector that will be programmed in to the
hardware as the remote address.  For UD queue pairs, it will be used
as the default address vector if none is supplied to ib_post_send().

Now that MAD handlers no longer return a status code, we can allow
them to return a pointer to a MAD structure if and only if they want
to send a response.  This provides a more natural and flexible
approach than using a "response method" field within the handler's
descriptor.

MAD handlers have to set the status fields within the MAD itself
anyway, in order to provide a meaningful response MAD; the additional
gPXE return status code is just noise.

Note that we probably don't need to ever explicitly set the status to
IB_MGMT_STATUS_OK, since it should already have this value from the
request.  (By not explicitly setting the status in this way, we can
safely have ib_sma_set_xxx() call ib_sma_get_xxx() in order to
generate the GetResponse MAD without worrying that ib_sma_get_xxx()
will clear any error status set by ib_sma_set_xxx().)

Most IB hardware seems not to allow allocation of the genuine QPNs 0
and 1, so allow for the externally-visible QPN (as constructed and
parsed by ib_packet, where used) to differ from the real
hardware-allocated QPN.

The GMA code was based upon the SMA code.  We can save space by making
the SMA simply an instance of the GMA.

Now that IPoIB has to deal with only one set of queues, the queue set
abstraction becomes merely an inconvenient wrapper.

Generalise out the multicast group membership record code from IPoIB.

Generalise out the path record lookup code from IPoIB.

Generalise the subnet management agent into a general management agent
capable of sending and responding to MADs, including support for
retransmissions as necessary.

Currently, all Infiniband users must create a process for polling
their completion queues (or rely on a regular hook such as
netdev_poll() in ipoib.c).

Move instead to a model whereby the Infiniband core maintains a single
process calling ib_poll_eq(), and polling the event queue triggers
polls of the applicable completion queues.  (At present, the
Infiniband core simply polls all of the device's completion queues.)
Polling a completion queue will now implicitly refill all attached
receive work queues; this is analogous to the way that netdev_poll()
implicitly refills the RX ring.

Infiniband users no longer need to create a process just to poll their
completion queues and refill their receive rings.

IPoIB and the SMA have separate constants for the packet size to be
used to I/O buffer allocations.  Merge these into the single
IB_MAX_PAYLOAD_SIZE constant.

(Various other points in the Infiniband stack have hard-coded
assumptions of a 2048-byte payload; we don't currently support
variable MTUs.)

IPoIB has a link-layer broadcast address that varies according to the
partition key.  We currently go through several contortions to pretend
that the link-layer address is a fixed constant; by making the
broadcast address a property of the network device rather than the
link-layer protocol it will be possible to simplify IPoIB's broadcast
handling.

Move the icky call to step() from aoe.c to ata.c; this takes it at
least one step further away from where it really doesn't belong.

Unfortunately, AoE has the ugly aoe_discover() mechanism which means
that we still have a step() loop in aoe.c for now; this needs to be
replaced at some future point.

Move the icky call to step() from iscsi.c to scsi.c; this takes it at
least one step further away from where it really doesn't belong.

The PXE debugging messages have remained pretty much unaltered since
Etherboot 5.4, and are now difficult to read in comparison to most of
the rest of gPXE.

Bring the pxe_undi debug messages up to normal gPXE standards.

Expand the NETDEV_LINK_UP bit into a link_rc status code field,
allowing specific reasons for link failure to be reported via

In order to construct outgoing link-layer frames or parse incoming
ones properly, some protocols (such as 802.11) need more state than is
available in the existing variables passed to the link-layer protocol
handlers. To remedy this, add struct net_device *netdev as the first
argument to each of these functions, so that more information can be
fetched from the link layer-private part of the network device.

Updated all three call sites (netdevice.c, efi_snp.c, pxe_undi.c) and
both implementations (ethernet.c, ipoib.c) of ll_protocol to use the
new argument.

gPXE responds to duplicated ACKs with an immediate retransmission,
which can lead to a sorceror's apprentice syndrome.  It also responds
to out-of-range (or old duplicate) ACKs with a RST, which can cause
valid connections to be dropped.

Fix the sorceror's apprentice syndrome by leaving the retransmission
timer running (and so inhibiting the immediate retransmission) when we
receive a potential duplicate ACK.  This seems to match the behaviour
of Linux observed via wireshark traces.

Fix the RST issue by sending RST only on out-of-range ACKs that occur
before the connection is fully established, as per RFC 793.

These problems were exposed during development of the 802.11 wireless
link layer; the 802.11 protocol has a failure mode that can easily
cause duplicated packets.  The fixes were tested in a controlled way
by faking large numbers of duplicated packets in the rtl8139 driver.

Several SPI chips will respond to an SPI read command with a dummy
zero bit immediately prior to the first real data bit.  This can be
used to autodetect the address length, provided that the command
length and data length are already known, and that the MISO data line
is tied high.

The Mac compiler treats "#pragma pack()" as gcc's "#pragma pack(pop)",
and so dies if the pragma pack stack is empty.  Adding a "#pragma
pack(1)" immediately beforehand is enough to keep the Mac compiler
happy.

The combination of "#pragma pack(1)", "#pragma pack()" won't actually
achieve anything on a Mac, but it will at least build.  (With gcc, the
"#pragma pack()" overrides any previous pragmas, so is still useful.)

Eliminate the potential for mismatches between table names and the
table entry data type by incorporating the data type into the
definition of the table, rather than specifying it explicitly in each
table accessor method.

Intel's C compiler (icc) chokes on the zero-length arrays that we
currently use as part of the mechanism for accessing linker table
entries.  Abstract away the zero-length arrays, to make a port to icc
easier.

Introduce macros such as for_each_table_entry() to simplify the common
case of iterating over all entries in a linker table.

Represent table names as #defined string constants rather than
unquoted literals; this avoids visual confusion between table names
and C variable or type names, and also allows us to force a
compilation error in the event of incorrect table names.
