Callback routine
Callback routine.
EFI_DHCP4_CALLBACK is provided by the consumer of the EFI DHCPv4 Protocol driver
to intercept events that occurred in the configuration process. This structure
provides advanced control of each state transition of the DHCP process. The
returned status code determines the behavior of the EFI DHCPv4 Protocol driver.
There are three possible returned values, which are described in the following

Initializes, changes, or resets the operational settings for the EFI DHCPv4 Protocol driver.
The Configure() function is used to initialize, change, or reset the operational
settings of the EFI DHCPv4 Protocol driver for the communication device on which
the EFI DHCPv4 Service Binding Protocol is installed. This function can be
successfully called only if both of the following are true:
* This instance of the EFI DHCPv4 Protocol driver is in the Dhcp4Stopped, Dhcp4Init,
Dhcp4InitReboot, or Dhcp4Bound states.
* No other EFI DHCPv4 Protocol driver instance that is controlled by this EFI
DHCPv4 Service Binding Protocol driver instance has configured this EFI DHCPv4
Protocol driver.
When this driver is in the Dhcp4Stopped state, it can transfer into one of the
following two possible initial states:
* Dhcp4Init
* Dhcp4InitReboot
The driver can transfer into these states by calling Configure() with a non-NULL
Dhcp4CfgData. The driver will transfer into the appropriate state based on the
supplied client network address in the ClientAddress parameter and DHCP options
in the OptionList parameter as described in RFC 2131.
When Configure() is called successfully while Dhcp4CfgData is set to NULL, the
default configuring data will be reset in the EFI DHCPv4 Protocol driver and
the state of the EFI DHCPv4 Protocol driver will not be changed. If one instance
wants to make it possible for another instance to configure the EFI DHCPv4 Protocol
driver, it must call this function with Dhcp4CfgData set to NULL.

Starts the DHCP configuration process.
The Start() function starts the DHCP configuration process. This function can
be called only when the EFI DHCPv4 Protocol driver is in the Dhcp4Init or
Dhcp4InitReboot state.
If the DHCP process completes successfully, the state of the EFI DHCPv4 Protocol
driver will be transferred through Dhcp4Selecting and Dhcp4Requesting to the
Dhcp4Bound state. The CompletionEvent will then be signaled if it is not NULL.
If the process aborts, either by the user or by some unexpected network error,
the state is restored to the Dhcp4Init state. The Start() function can be called
again to restart the process.
Refer to RFC 2131 for precise state transitions during this process. At the
time when each event occurs in this process, the callback function that was set
by EFI_DHCP4_PROTOCOL.Configure() will be called and the user can take this
opportunity to control the process.

Extends the lease time by sending a request packet.
The RenewRebind() function is used to manually extend the lease time when the
EFI DHCPv4 Protocol driver is in the Dhcp4Bound state and the lease time has
not expired yet. This function will send a request packet to the previously
found server (or to any server when RebindRequest is TRUE) and transfer the
state into the Dhcp4Renewing state (or Dhcp4Rebinding when RebindingRequest is
TRUE). When a response is received, the state is returned to Dhcp4Bound.
If no response is received before the try count is exceeded (the RequestTryCount
field that is specified in EFI_DHCP4_CONFIG_DATA) but before the lease time that
was issued by the previous server expires, the driver will return to the Dhcp4Bound
