[build] Rename gPXE to iPXE

2010-04-19T22:43:39+00:00

Access to the gpxe.org and etherboot.org domains and associated resources has been revoked by the registrant of the domain. Work around this problem by renaming project from gPXE to iPXE, and updating URLs to match. Also update README, LOG and COPYRIGHTS to remove obsolete information. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown

[802.11] Enhance support for driver PHY differences

2009-08-08T23:11:26+00:00

The prior net80211 model of physical-layer behavior for drivers was overly simplistic and limited the drivers that could be written. To be more flexible, split the driver-provided list of supported rates by band, and add a means for specifying a list of supported channels. Allow drivers to specify a hardware channel value that will be tied to uses of the channel. Expose net80211_duration() to drivers, and make the rate it uses in its computations configurable, so that it can be used in calculating durations that must be set in hardware for ACK and CTS packets. Add net80211_cts_duration() for the common case of calculating the duration for a CTS packet. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown

[802.11] Add support for 802.11 devices with software MAC layer

2009-08-01T18:00:32+00:00

This is required for all modern 802.11 devices, and allows drivers to be written for them with minimally more effort than is required for a wired NIC. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown Modified-by: Michael Brown
