[Xen-devel] Make iPXE a standalone ROM

[Anoob Soman <anoob.soman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Make the iPXE ROM be built as a standalone ROM, rather than being embedded
into hvmloader and pass the iPXE ROM to hvmloader via module, in the same way
as OVMF/SeaBIOS are currently passed

Introduce a ./configure --with-system-ipxe=$path option

This allows us to disentangle iPXE from hvmloader, and allows us to
edit/modify/upgrade iPXE independently of Xen.

Anoob Soman (5):
  tools/firmware: Build ipxe as a standalone ROM
  tools/firmware: #define IPXE_PATH
  libxc: Allow loading of firmware modules for HVM guest
  libxl: Load iPXE ROM from a file
  hvmloader: Use iPXE ROM loaded from a standalone file
