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.
Use .text16.data section with "aw" attributes, to avoid section type
conflicts when placing both code and data into .text16.
Add __from_{text16,data16}.
Preserve the whole of %esp across prot_call(). We have to split this
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.
Add infrastructure to support access to .data16 (and .text16) variables
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.
Change semantics of network API so that packet-absorbing calls *always*
take ownership of the packet, rather than doing so only if they return
success. This breaks semantic compatibility with Linux's
hard_start_xmit() method, but means that we don't have to worry so much
about error cases.
Split mechanism of processing received packets (net_rx_process()) out
from policy (net_step()), preparatory to putting net_step() in a separate
object.
