/** @file
*
* Buffer internals.
*
* A buffer consists of a single, contiguous area of memory, some of
* which is "filled" and the remainder of which is "free". The
* "filled" and "free" spaces are not necessarily contiguous.
*
* When a buffer is initialised via init_buffer(), it consists of a
* single free space. As data is added to the buffer via
* fill_buffer(), this free space decreases and can become fragmented.
*
* Each free block within a buffer starts with a "tail byte". If the
* tail byte is non-zero, this indicates that the free block is the
* tail of the buffer, i.e. occupies all the remaining space up to the
* end of the buffer. When the tail byte is non-zero, it indicates
* that a descriptor (a @c struct @c buffer_free_block) follows the
* tail byte. The descriptor describes the size of the free block and
* the address of the next free block.
*
* We cannot simply always start a free block with a descriptor,
* because it is conceivable that we will, at some point, encounter a
* situation in which the final free block of a buffer is too small to
* contain a descriptor. Consider a protocol with a blocksize of 512
* downloading a 1025-byte file into a 1025-byte buffer. Suppose that
* the first two blocks are received; we have now filled 1024 of the
* 1025 bytes in the buffer, and our only free block consists of the
* 1025th byte. Using a "tail byte" solves this problem.
*
*
* Note that the rather convoluted way of manipulating the buffer
* descriptors (using copy_{to,from}_phys rather than straightforward
* pointers) is needed to cope with operation as a PXE stack, when we
* may be running in real mode or 16-bit protected mode, and therefore
* cannot directly access arbitrary areas of memory using simple
* pointers.

* Writes a block of data into the buffer. The block need not be
* aligned to any particular boundary, or be of any particular size,
* and it may overlap blocks already in the buffer (i.e. duplicate
* calls to fill_buffer() are explicitly permitted).
*
* @c buffer->fill will be updated to indicate the fill level of the
* buffer, i.e. the offset to the first gap within the buffer. If the
* filesize is known (e.g. as with the SLAM protocol), you can test
* for end-of-file by checking for @c buffer->fill==filesize. If the
* filesize is not known, but there is a well-defined end-of-file test
* (e.g. as with the TFTP protocol), you can read @c buffer->fill to
* determine the final filesize. If blocks are known to be delivered
* in a strictly sequential order with no packet loss or duplication,
* then you can pass in @c offset==buffer->fill.
*
* @b NOTE: It is the caller's responsibility to ensure that the
* boundaries between data blocks are more than @c sizeof(struct @c
* buffer_free_block) apart. If this condition is not satisfied, data
* corruption will occur.
*
* In practice this is not a problem. Callers of fill_buffer() will
* be download protocols such as TFTP, and very few protocols have a
* block size smaller than @c sizeof(struct @c buffer_free_block).
