FYI: I wouldn't count on interrupt status returning anything useful. I'm actually somewhat surprised to find this in the SNP spec (without much details what the expected behavior is). UEFI does not use interrupts (except timer) and handles devices in polling mode. So there is little reason for uefi drivers to configure device interrupt registers in the first place. |

Interestingly, the interrupt status never shows that we can receive a packet. Buggy OVMF firmware?
This helps to identify the network interface in integration tests. So far, we also only use a single network device. In case there are more, the next device should have a similar MAC address, such as the last component being incremented by one.

TL;DR: This adds more clarity to facilitate future debugging and improvements for #1617.
Wow, this was an unexpected major time sink. The problem here is that if
snp::testruns beforepxe::test,snp.receive()receives an Ethernet ARP package rather than a Ethernet IPv4 packet.I tried two solutions:
I got non working, unfortunately. So instead, this adds more clarity to ease future debugging and improvements.
