* sandbox: eth: Add support for using the 'lo' interfaceJoe Hershberger2015-04-181-0/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 'lo' interface on Linux doesn't support thinks like ARP or link-layer access like we use to talk to a normal network interface. A higher-level network API must be used to access localhost. As written, this interface is limited to not supporting ICMP since the API doesn't allow the socket to be opened for all IP traffic and be able to receive at the same time. UDP is far more useful to test with, so it was selected over ICMP. Ping won't work, but things like TFTP should work.

* sandbox: eth: Add a bridge to a real network for sandboxJoe Hershberger2015-04-181-0/+52
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement a bridge between U-Boot's network stack and Linux's raw packet API allowing the sandbox to send and receive packets using the host machine's network interface. This raw Ethernet API requires elevated privileges. You can either run as root, or you can add the capability needed like so: sudo /sbin/setcap "CAP_NET_RAW+ep" /path/to/u-boot Signed-off-by: Joe Hershberger <joe.hershberger@ni.com> Reviewed-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>

* sandbox: set sandbox's vendor to nullMasahiro Yamada2014-05-161-0/+299
Because sandbox is not a real hardware, setting vendor=sandbox is almost meaningless. This commit sets sandbox's vendor field to '-'. It is a good thing that it decreases one level directory hierarchy. The files board/sandbox/sandbox/* have been moved to board/sandbox/*.
