# 1550ecf1 23-Dec-2010 Marcus Overhagen <marcusoverhagen@gmail.com>

The IN_CLASS* macros use host byte order.
This fixes netmask and broadcast ip for PXE booting.

# 61729d93 28-Jul-2010 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

* Reworked the complete stack to allow more than one address per network
interface - this caused quite a number of changes.
* Network interfaces, and its addresses are now reference counted (not yet
complete, though, InterfaceAddresses need to hold references to their
interface as well).
* There are two known regressions of this commit that I will fix later:
- you cannot remove interfaces anymore
- IPv4 multicast was broken anyway, but now it's disabled, too.
* Moved a device_interfaces.cpp|h out of interfaces.cpp.
* The datalink layer chain is now instantiated per domain per interface,
not just per interface anymore.
* When a buffer reaches the network layer, it has no known interface yet, ie.
the ipv4|6|whatever modules need to set this manually.
* Added more debug output, and some new debugger commands, the control option
is now printed in clear text.
* Added hash_address() function to the address modules. Added "const" to
set_to_defaults() where needed.
* Fixed net_buffer's restore header functions offset use as reported by Atis.
* Improved buffer dump output, use the domain module to print the address if
available.
* Moved net_buffer::type into the union, as it's not needed by the upper layers
anymore.
* Moved IPv6 specific code from {add|remove}_default_route() to where it
belongs, but disabled it for the time being.
* Completely discarded useless ipv4_datagram module.
* Added ping6 to the build.

# a8f9741c 04-Jul-2008 Michael Lotz <mmlr@mlotz.ch>

* Removed -Wno-unused from all KernelMergeObjects in kernel Jamfiles.
* Fixed most of the warnings resulting from that by removing actually not used
variables or moving declaration into the #IF. Left unused functions there
though, as I wouldn't know if they are supposed to be used again.
* Fixed two statements with no effect (clamping to MAX_ANCILLARY_DATA_LEN in
socket.cpp and unsetting fCounterSem in MessagingService.cpp).
* Some style cleanups.

# 49aadb1d 19-Apr-2008 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

Fixed the build of vfs_net_boot.cpp - I obviously messed up the full build I
thought I had done.
Of course, that wouldn't have happened if Ingo didn't break the network boot
with his netstack changes ;-)

# f4da50b7 19-Jul-2007 Ingo Weinhold <ingo_weinhold@gmx.de>

Computed the netmask in net endianess. The wrong netmask caused
misrouting when the net server set up the loop device, thus stopping the
net boot process.

# 3a199128 15-Jul-2007 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

* Now checks if the BootMethod allocation succeeds.
* Minor cleanup, reordered header files to go from private/local to public/global.

[Sorry, couldn't split this one up any further.]
* Images preloaded by the boot loader had to be modules to be of any use
to the kernel. Extended the mechanism so that any images not accepted
by the module code would later be tried to be added as drivers by the
devfs. This is a little hacky ATM, since the devfs manages the drivers
using a hash map keyed by the drivers inode ID, which those drivers
obviously don't have.
* The devfs emulates read_pages() using read(), if the device driver
doesn't implement the former (all old-style drivers), thus making it
possible to BFS, which uses the file cache which in turn requires
read_pages(), on the device. write_pages() emulation is still missing.
* Replaced the kernel_args::boot_disk structure by a KMessage, which can
more flexibly be extended and deals more gracefully with
arbitrarily-size data. The disk_identifier structure still exists,
though. It is added as message field in cases where needed (non net
boot). Moved the boot_drive_number field of the bios_ia32 platform
specific args into the message.
* Made the stage 1 PXE boot loader superfluous. Moved the relevant
initialization code into the stage 2 loader, which can now be loaded
directly via PXE.
* The PXE boot loader does now download a boot tgz archive via TFTP. It
does no longer use the RemoteDisk protocol (it could actually be
removed from the boot loader). It also parses the DHCP options in the
DHCPACK packet provided by PXE and extracts the root path to be
mounted by the kernel.
* Reorganized the boot volume search in the kernel (vfs_boot.cpp) and
added support for network boot. In this case the net stack is
initialized and the network interface the boot loader used is brought
up and configured. Since NBD and RemoteDisk are our only options for
net boot (and those aren't really configurable dynamically) ATM, the
the boot device is found automatically by the disk device manager.

Booting via PXE does work to some degree now. The most grievous problem
is that loading certain drivers or kernel modules (or related activity)
causes a reboot (likely a triple fault, though one wonders where our
double fault handler is on vacation). Namely the keyboard and mouse input
server add-ons need to be deactivated as well as the media server.
A smaller problem is the net server, which apparently tries to
(re-)configure the network interface we're using to boot, which
obviously doesn't work out that well. So, if all this stuff is disabled
Haiku does fully boot, when using the RemoteDisk protocol (not being
able to use keyboard or mouse doesn't make this a particular fascinating
experience, though ;-)). I had no luck with NBD -- it seemed to have
protocol problems with the servers I tried.
