is a DHCP option" data structures.
We need this code in order to be able to return a DHCP packet to a PXE NBP
which reflects options from our multiple sources (e.g. NVS and DHCP
server). This is expensive, but necessary. Having paid this cost, we may
as well try to use the same code to generate our DHCP request packets,
since the process is similar.
I want to get to the point where any header in include/ reflects a
standard user-level header (e.g. a POSIX header), while everything that's
specific to gPXE lives in include/gpxe/. Headers that reflect a Linux
header (e.g. if_ether.h) should also be in include/gpxe/, with the same
name as the Linux header and, preferably, the same names used for the
definitions.
us to return proper PXE status codes, while simultaneously allowing for
more consistent error reporting (complete with verbose error messages as a
build-time option).
