Hi Mikhail,
This patch adds HTTP/1.1 compatible web-server that can be used by other. Server supports GET, POST, and HEAD requests. On client request it will call user specified GET/POST callback. Then results will be transmitted to client.
Why are we adding a HTTP server? I don't see a cover letter explaining overall what you're attempting to achieve with this patch set so please add that. Also I suggest you look at the LWIP patch set [1] as that may make what you wish to achieve more straight forward.

This patch series consist of
- TCP fixes. Current U-Boot implementation of TCP is bad. It is
especially bad for uploading. This patch series fixes TCP support. I know about attempts to add LWIP to u-Boot, but it's not in U-Boot yet.
To be clear, baring some unforseen difficulty, lwIP will be merged. Is it ready today? No. But I would ask that if people have both networking background and desire to do U-Boot development they look in that direction rather than enhancing (rather than bugfixing) the legacy stack further.
