352bf1bda2 Move init.h to gpxe/init.h. 2006-04-30 01:08:52 +00:00

bac97eb979 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.

fdc2ee79db Network API now allows for multiple network devices (although the
implementation allows for only one, and does so without compromising on
the efficiency of static allocation).

Link-layer protocols are cleanly separated from the device drivers.

Network-layer protocols are cleanly separated from individual network
devices.

Link-layer and network-layer protocols are cleanly separated from each
other.
