The gnu-efi toolkit provides a minimal library which implements
only the core EFI interface (as defined by the EFI specification).

The TCPIP support is part of the toolkit which is a set of libraries
and commands built on top of the basic EFI functionalities.

At this point we do not have a port of the toolkit to Linux/ia64
and the GNU tools.
