[PATCH v14 0/2] add TCP and HTTP for downloading images

[Paul Liu]

Hi Michal,

Thanks for reviewing. I'll make a fix based on your review soon.

However I don't know the change from v1 to v12. The previous version are
made by Duncan, and the patches are one year ago so I lost track of the
changes from v1 to v12.

For booting iso images (installer) from distros I think I'll need to try
it. But it is definitely not related to HTTPS.
What I know is the distro release ISO images. And we need to extract all
efi (EFI shell, grub..) and initrd/kernel from ISO
image's eltorito section. I need to figure that out how to do it by
commands if we load the iso images to the memory.

Yours,
Paul
