71229098a6 eth-raw-os.c: Add cast to bind(2) call
With more recent gcc versions we otherwise get an error like:
note: expected 'const struct sockaddr *' but argument is of type
'struct sockaddr_in *'

and the common solution here is to cast, rather than re-work the code.

ab971e192a sandbox: eth-raw-os.c: Ensure that our interface name is not too long
Coverity notes that we do not ensure when we copy ifname we still have
space left to ensure NULL termination.  As cannot control the size of
ifr_name we must make sure that our argument will not overflow the
buffer.

22f68524f8 sandbox: eth: Add support for using the 'lo' interface
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.

a346ca7902 sandbox: eth: Add a bridge to a real network for sandbox
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
