There are several points in the iPXE codebase where
list_for_each_entry() is (ab)used to extract only the first entry from
a list. Add a macro list_first_entry() to make this code easier to
read.

Allow multiple, space separated values (such as kernel arguments,
passed via DHCP) to be assigned to an identifier using the "set"
command.

The "dhcp" command now accepts a list of interfaces to try until one
succeeds. For example:
iPXE> dhcp net0 net1 net2
If no interfaces are specified, all interfaces will be tried.
Note that interfaces that fail to DHCP are closed in order to avoid
memory exhaustion. This behavior differs from the previous "dhcp"
command implementation but should not affect any existing scripts
since a "dhcp" command failure would in any case cause the script to
abort.

Access to the gpxe.org and etherboot.org domains and associated
resources has been revoked by the registrant of the domain. Work
around this problem by renaming project from gPXE to iPXE, and
updating URLs to match.
Also update README, LOG and COPYRIGHTS to remove obsolete information.

Add commands `iwstat' (to list 802.11-specific status information for
802.11 devices) and `iwlist' (to scan for available networks and print
a list along with security information).

ifcommon_exec() was long-ago marked as __attribute__((regparm(2))) in
order to minimise the size of functions that call into it. Since
then, gPXE has added -mregparm=3 as a general compilation option, and
this "optimisation" is now counter-productive.
Change (and simplify) the prototype to minimise code size given the
current compilation conditions.
This keeps code size down, since the wireless interface management
commands have the same command-line interface and overall structure as
the wired commands.

This resolves potential difficulties occurring when more than one script
is used. Total cost: 88 bytes uncompressed.

Having a default script containing
#!gpxe
autoboot
can cause problems when entering commands to load and start a kernel
manually; the default script image will still be present when the
kernel is started and so will be treated as an initrd. It is possible
to work around this by typing "imgfree" before any other commands, but
this is counter-intuitive.
Fix by allowing the embedded image list to be empty (in which case we
just call autoboot()), and making this the default.
Reported by alkisg@gmail.com.
Various combinations of options 43.6, 43.7 and 43.8 dictate which
servers we send Boot Server Discovery requests to, and which servers
we should accept responses from. Obey these options, and remove the
explicit specification of a single Boot Server from start_pxebs() and
dependent functions.
The DHCP client code now implements only the mechanism of the DHCP and
PXE Boot Server protocols. Boot Server Discovery can be initiated
manually using the "pxebs" command. The menuing code is separated out
into a user-level function on a par with boot_root_path(), and is
entered in preference to a normal filename boot if the DHCP vendor
class is "PXEClient" and the PXE boot menu option exists.
If there is more than one loaded image, refuse to automatically select
the image to execute. There are at least two possible cases, with
different "correct" answers:
1. User loads image A by mistake, then loads image B and types "boot".
User wants to execute image B.
2. User loads image A, then loads image B (which patches image A), then
types "boot". User wants to execute image A.
If a user actually wants to load multiple images, they must explicitly
specify which image is to be executed.
We can just treat all non-kernel images as initrds, which matches our
behaviour for multiboot kernels. This allows us to eliminate initrd as
an image type, and treat the "initrd" command as just another synonym for
"imgfetch".
This commit implements GDB over UDP. Using UDP is more complex than
serial and has required some restructuring.
The GDB stub is now built using one or both of GDBSERIAL and GDBUDP
config.h options.
To enter the debugger, execute the gPXE shell command:
gdbstub <transport> [<options>...]
Where <transport> is "serial" or "udp". For "udp", the name of a
configured network device is required:
gdbstub udp net0
The GDB stub listens on UDP port 43770 by default.
Allow for settings to be described by something other than a DHCP option
tag if desirable. Currently used only for the MAC address setting.
Separate out fake DHCP packet creation code from dhcp.c to fakedhcp.c.
Remove notion of settings from dhcppkt.c.
Rationalise dhcp.c to use settings API only for final registration of the
DHCP options, rather than using {store,fetch}_setting throughout.
Add the notion of the settings hierarchy, complete with
register/unregister routines.
Rename set->store and get->fetch to avoid naming conflicts with get/put
as used in reference counting.
Add the concept of an abstract configuration setting, comprising a (DHCP)
tag value and an associated byte sequence.
Add the concept of a settings namespace.
Add functions for extracting string, IPv4 address, and signed and
unsigned integer values from configuration settings (analogous to
dhcp_snprintf(), dhcp_ipv4_option(), etc.).
Update functions for parsing and formatting named/typed options to work
with new settings API.
Update NVO commands and config UI to use new settings API.
show_setting() and related functions now return an "actual length" in the
style of snprintf(). This is to allow consumers to allocate buffers large
enough to hold the formatted setting.
