1.Consolidate absolute to relative timeout conversion into one place(_net_timedwait)
2.Drive the wait timeout logic by net_timedwait instead of devif_timer
This patch help us remove devif_timer(period tick) to save the power in the future.

* Simplify EINTR/ECANCEL error handling
1. Add semaphore uninterruptible wait function
2 .Replace semaphore wait loop with a single uninterruptible wait
3. Replace all sem_xxx to nxsem_xxx
* Unify the void cast usage
1. Remove void cast for function because many place ignore the returned value witout cast
2. Replace void cast for variable with UNUSED macro
Normally it is required that the network be in the "down" state when re-configuring the network interface. This is thought not to be a necessary here because.
1. The ICMPv6 logic here runs with the network locked so there can be no outgoing packets with bad source IP addresses from any asynchronous network activity using the device being reconfigured.
2. Incoming packets depend only upon the MAC filtering. Network drivers do not use the IP address; they filter incoming packets using only the MAC address which is not being changed here.
sched/semaphore: Add nxsem_post() which is identical to sem_post() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_post in the OS to nxsem_post().
sched/semaphore: Add nxsem_destroy() which is identical to sem_destroy() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_destroy() in the OS to nxsem_destroy().
libc/semaphore and sched/semaphore: Add nxsem_getprotocol() and nxsem_setprotocola which are identical to sem_getprotocol() and set_setprotocol() except that they never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_setprotocol in the OS to nxsem_setprotocol(). sem_getprotocol() was not used in the OS
libc/semaphore: Add nxsem_getvalue() which is identical to sem_getvalue() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_getvalue in the OS to nxsem_getvalue().
sched/semaphore: Rename all internal private functions from sem_xyz to nxsem_xyz. The sem_ prefix is (will be) reserved only for the application semaphore interfaces.
libc/semaphore: Add nxsem_init() which is identical to sem_init() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_init in the OS to nxsem_init().
sched/semaphore: Rename sem_tickwait() to nxsem_tickwait() so that it is clear this is an internal OS function.
sched/semaphoate: Rename sem_reset() to nxsem_reset() so that it is clear this is an internal OS function.
-------
This patch enhances networking support for the simulation under Linux.
Includes updated support for Linux TUN/TAP, and the addition of support for
Linux bridge devices.
CHANGES
-------
o Check to see if the d_txavail callback is present before calling it in
the arp send code. This prevents a segfault when simulating the telnetd
daemon with arp send enabled.
o Adjust the simulation's netdriver_loop() so it will detect and respond to
ARP requests.
o Do not attempt to take the tap device's hardware address for use by the
simulation. That hardware address belongs to the host end of the link,
not the simulation end. Generate a randomized MAC address instead.
o Do not assign an IP address to the interface on the host side of the TAP
link.
+ Provide two modes: "host route" and "bridge".
+ In host route mode, maintain a host route that points any traffic for the
simulation's IP address to the tap device. In this mode, so long as the
simulation's IP is a free address in the same subnet as the host, no
additional configuration will be required to talk to it from the host.
Note that address changes are handled automatically if they follow the
rule of if-down/set-address/if-up, which everything seems to.
+ In bridge mode, add the tap device to the specified bridge instance. See
configs/sim/NETWORK-LINUX.txt for information and usage examples. This
enables much more flexible configurations (with fewer headaches), such as
running multiple simulations on a single host, all of which can access
the network the host is connected to.
o Refresh configurations in configs/sim where CONFIG_NET=y. They default
to "host route" mode.
o Add configs/sim/NETWORK-LINUX.txt
CAVEATS
-------
- The MAC address generation code is extremely simplistic, and does not
check for potential conflicts on the network. Probably not an issue, but
something to be aware of.
- I was careful to leave it in a state where Cygwin/pcap should still work,
but I don't have a Windows environment to test in. This should be
checked.
- I don't know if this was ever intended to work with OS X. I didn't even
try to test it there.
NOTES
-----
- Was able to get telnetd working and simulate nsh over telnet, but only so
long as listen backlogs were disabled.
There appears to be a bug in the backlog code where sockets are being
returned in SYN_RCVD state instead of waiting until they're ESTABLISHED;
if you perform an immediate send after accepting the connection, it will
confuse the stack and the send will hang; additionally, the connection
will never reach ESTABLISHED state.
Can be worked around by adding a sleep(1) after the accept in telnetd. I
don't have the necessary knowledge of the IP stack to know what the
correct fix is.
