EFI requires us to be able to specify the source address for
individual transmitted packets, and to be able to extract the
destination address on received packets.
Take advantage of this to rationalise the push() and pull() methods so
that push() takes a (dest,source,proto) tuple and pull() returns a
(dest,source,proto) tuple.
Multicast hashing is an ugly overlap between network and link layers.
EFI requires us to provide access to this functionality, so move it
out of ipv4.c and expose it as a method of the link layer.
Determine the network-layer packet type and fill it in for UNDI
clients. This is required by some NBPs such as emBoot's winBoot/i.
This change requires refactoring the link-layer portions of the
gPXE netdevice API, so that it becomes possible to strip the
link-layer header without passing the packet up the network stack.
Add ability for network devices to flag link up/down state to the
networking core.
Autobooting code will now wait for link-up before attempting DHCP.
IPoIB reflects the Infiniband link state as the network device link state
(which is not strictly correct; we also need a succesful IPoIB IPv4
broadcast group join), but is probably more informative.
Infiniband devices no longer block waiting for link-up in
register_ibdev().
Hermon driver needs to create an event queue and poll for link-up events.
Infiniband core needs to reread MAD parameters when link state changes.
IPoIB needs to cope with Infiniband link parameters being only partially
available at probe and open time.
Arbel and Hermon cards both have multiple ports. Add the
infrastructure required to register each port as a separate IB
device. Don't yet register more than one port, since registration
will currently fail unless a valid link is detected.
Use ib_*_{set,get}_{drv,owner}data wrappers to access driver- and
owner-private data on Infiniband structures.
tracking down a bug that turned out to be a free_iob() used where I
needed a netdev_tx_complete(). This left the freed I/O buffer on the
net device's TX list, with bad, bad consequences later.
Also fixed the bug in question.
