[Etherboot-developers] Etherboot 5.0.4 (production) released

[<ke...@us...>]

I have released Etherboot 5.0.4 at http://etherboot.sourceforge.net/

Changes from 5.0.3:

+ New version of contrib/Diskless-From-NT/furtmayer.html. I mangled the
previous version by forgetting to extract with metamail so it was still
quotable-printable encoded.

+ Renamed do_printf to vsprintf because that's the standard function it
has the same signature as.

+ More patches from Klaus Espenlaub. In his own words:

The patch to add UDP checksums for transmitted packets is attached.
Just don't be surprised if some packet sniffer tells you that the
checksum for the NFS_LOOKUP packets are wrong and that the filename is
truncated.  It's a bug in the sniffer, not in Etherboot.

Oh, and the small change in udpchksum() almost makes up for the
increased code size.

I also rewrote the NFS code to use pointers instead of array accesses.
This reduced the code size by 124 bytes.  Patch attached.

The last patch in this mail fixes misc things: a typo in misc.c
(DOT_PROGRESS instead of BAR_PROGRESS), and twiddle() is only called if
the packet type is IP.  This makes the output nicer - the dots are also
printed in some non-approriate places for ARP reply packets.  The
important packets are IP anyway.

+ The option BOOTP_DATA_AT_0x93C00 is deprecated, in preparation for
expanding the parameter area and the first32.c area.

+ Marty Connor found a typo in index.html, should be: Etherboot can work
with..., not Ethernet can work with... Ooops.

+ Eric Biederman tried a patch of Preston Wilson's and discovered that
DI should be prefixed by ES in the test for a PnP BIOS in loader.S to be
sure.  Furthermore some BIOSes are not fully compliant and we need an
#ifndef PNP_BUT_NOT_BBS_COMPLIANT to work around that.

+ Oops, there's no entry in config.c for the DFE530TX+ even though
there's one in NIC.
