TCP currently neglects to allow sufficient space for its own headers
when allocating I/O buffers. This problem is masked by the fact that
the maximum link-layer header size (802.11) is substantially larger
than the common Ethernet link-layer header.
Fix by allowing sufficient space for any TCP headers, as well as the
network-layer and link-layer headers.

The default initiator IQN is "iqn.2000-09.org.etherboot:UNKNOWN".
This is problematic for two reasons:
a) the etherboot.org domain (and hence the associated IQN namespace)
is not under the control of the iPXE project, and
b) some targets (correctly) refuse to allow concurrent connections
from different initiators using the same initiator IQN.
Solve both problems by changing the default initiator IQN to be
iqn.2010-04.org.ipxe:<hostname> if a hostname is set, or
iqn.2010-04.org.ipxe:<uuid> if no hostname is set.
Explicit initiator IQNs set via DHCP option 203 are not affected by
this change.
Unfortunately, this change is likely to break some existing
configurations, where ACL rules have been put in place referring to
the old default initiator IQN. Users may need to update ACLs, or
force the use of the old IQN using an iPXE script line such as
set initiator-iqn iqn.2000-09.org.etherboot:UNKNOWN
or a dhcpd.conf option such as
option iscsi-initiator-iqn "iqn.2000-09.org.etherboot:UNKNOWN"

fails to account for non-Ethernet link layers). Use this as the first
preferred alternative to the actual link-layer address when

VLAN device names have the form "netX.Y", e.g. "net0.5" for VLAN 5 on
net0. This use of "." conflicts with the use of "." as the
hierarchical separator in settings block names, with the result that
VLAN device settings cannot be accessed by name.
It would be trivial to treat the VLAN device settings as being a child
of the trunk device settings, but this would cause the VLAN device
settings to be applied to the trunk device: for example, setting
"net0.5/ip" would then apply the IP address to both net0.5 and net0.

VLAN device "net0.5" is now "net0-5".

Calling a timer's expiry method may cause arbitrary consequences,
including arbitrary modifications of the list of retry timers.
list_for_each_entry_safe() guards against only deletion of the current
list entry; it provides no protection against other list
modifications. In particular, if a timer's expiry method causes the
subsequent timer in the list to be deleted, then the next loop
iteration will access a timer that may no longer exist.
This is a particularly nasty bug, since absolutely none of the
list-manipulation or reference-counting assertion checks will be
triggered. (The first assertion failure happens on the next iteration
through list_for_each_entry(), showing that the list has become
corrupted but providing no clue as to when this happened.)

Commit 5f4ab0d ("[iscsi] Randomise a portion of the ISID to force new

than once per connection, rather than on each call to
iscsi_open_connection(), which is guaranteed to be called only once
per connection. This is incorrect behaviour that causes our

When a connection to an iSCSI target is broken without gracefully
closing the TCP socket, a subsequent connection attempt may fail
because the target believes that we are attempting session
reinstatement (see RFC3720 section 5.3.1). This has been observed
using the Microsoft iSCSI target.
Section 9.1.1 of RFC3720 states that initiators should use a stable
ISID, however section 5.3.1 shows that the only way to explicitly
request that a new session be created is to use a new ISID.

where available, because many iPXE drivers will not be able to receive
