Rewrite the HTTP core to allow for the addition of arbitrary content
encoding mechanisms, such as PeerDist and gzip.
The core now exposes http_open() which can be used to create requests
with an explicitly selected HTTP method, an optional requested content
range, and an optional request body. A simple wrapper provides the
preexisting behaviour of creating either a GET request or an
application/x-www-form-urlencoded POST request (if the URI includes
parameters).
The HTTP SAN interface is now implemented using the generic block
device translator. Individual blocks are requested using http_open()
to create a range request.
Server connections are now managed via a connection pool; this allows
for multiple requests to the same server (e.g. for SAN blocks) to be
completely unaware of each other. Repeated HTTPS connections to the
same server can reuse a pooled connection, avoiding the per-connection
overhead of establishing a TLS session (which can take several seconds
if using a client certificate).
Support for HTTP SAN booting and for the Basic and Digest
authentication schemes is now optional and can be controlled via the
SANBOOT_PROTO_HTTP, HTTP_AUTH_BASIC, and HTTP_AUTH_DIGEST build
configuration options in config/general.h.

VLAN and 802.11 devices use a network device operations structure that
wraps an underlying structure. For example, the vlan_operations
structure wraps the network device operations structure of the
underlying trunk device. This can cause false positives from the
current implementation of netdev_irq_supported(), which will always
report that VLAN devices support interrupts since it has no visibility
into the support provided by the underlying trunk device.
Fix by allowing network devices to explicitly flag that interrupts are
not supported, despite the presence of an irq() method.

We currently do not wait for a received FIN before exiting to boot a
loaded OS. In the common case of booting from an HTTP server, this
means that the TCP connection is left consuming resources on the
server side: the server will retransmit the FIN several times before
giving up.
Fix by initiating a graceful close of all TCP connections and waiting
(for up to one second) for all connections to finish closing
gracefully (i.e. for the outgoing FIN to have been sent and ACKed, and
for the incoming FIN to have been received and ACKed at least once).

The only way to map an eIPoIB MAC address (REMAC) to an IPoIB MAC
address is to intercept an incoming ARP request or reply.
If we do not have an REMAC cache entry for a particular destination
MAC address, then we cannot transmit the packet. This can arise in at
least two situations:
- An external program (e.g. a PXE NBP using the UNDI API) may attempt
to transmit to a destination MAC address that has been obtained by
some method other than ARP.
- Memory pressure may have caused REMAC cache entries to be
discarded. This is fairly likely on a busy network, since REMAC
cache entries are created for all received (broadcast) ARP
requests. (We can't sensibly avoid creating these cache entries,
since they are required in order to send an ARP reply, and when we
are being used via the UNDI API we may have no knowledge of which
IP addresses are "ours".)
Attempt to ameliorate the situation by generating a semi-spurious ARP
request whenever we find a missing REMAC cache entry. This will
hopefully trigger an ARP reply, which would then provide us with the
information required to populate the REMAC cache.

A fairly common end-user problem is that the default configuration of
a switch may leave the port in a non-forwarding state for a
substantial length of time (tens of seconds) after link up. This can
cause iPXE to time out and give up attempting to boot.
We cannot force the switch to start forwarding packets sooner, since
any attempt to send a Spanning Tree Protocol bridge PDU may cause the
switch to disable our port (if the switch happens to have the Bridge
PDU Guard feature enabled for the port).
For non-ancient versions of the Spanning Tree Protocol, we can detect
whether or not the port is currently forwarding and use this to inform
the network device core that the link is currently blocked.

The USB core will currently fail to detect disconnections if a new
device has attached by the time the port is examined in
usb_hotplug().
Fix by recording the fact that a disconnection has taken place
whenever the "connection status changed" (CSC) bit is observed to be
set. (Whether the change represents a disconnection or a
reconnection, it indicates that the port has experienced some time of
being disconnected.)
Note that the time at which a disconnection can be detected varies by
hub type. In particular: root hubs can observe the CSC bit when
polling, and so will record the disconnection before calling
usb_port_changed(), but USB hubs read the port status (and hence the
CSC bit) only during the call to hub_speed(), long after the call to
usb_port_changed().

xHCI provides a somewhat convoluted mechanism for specifying details
of a transaction translator. Hubs must be marked as such in the
device slot context. The only opportunity to do so is as part of a
Configure Endpoint command, which can be executed only when opening
the hub's interrupt endpoint.
We add a mechanism for host controllers to intercept the opening of
hub devices, providing xHCI with an opportunity to update the internal
device slot structure for the corresponding USB device to indicate
that the device is a hub. We then include the hub-specific details in
the input context whenever any Configure Endpoint command is issued.
When a device is opened, we record the device slot and port for its
transaction translator (if any), and supply these as part of the
Address Device command.

The current endpoint reset logic defers the reset until the caller

insufficient when dealing with endpoints behind a transaction
translator, since the transaction translator is a resource shared

that would introduce recursive calls to usb_poll(). Instead, we
add the endpoint to a list of halted endpoints, and perform the reset

The TCP Selective Acknowledgement option (specified in RFC2018)
provides a mechanism for the receiver to indicate packets that have
been received out of order (e.g. due to earlier dropped packets).
iPXE often operates in environments in which there is a high
probability of packet loss. For example, the legacy USB keyboard
emulation in some BIOSes involves polling the USB bus from within a
system management interrupt: this introduces an invisible delay of
around 500us which is long enough for around 40 full-length packets to
be dropped. Similarly, almost all 1Gbps USB2 devices will eventually
end up dropping packets because the USB2 bus does not provide enough
bandwidth to sustain a 1Gbps stream, and most devices will not provide
enough internal buffering to hold a full TCP window's worth of
received packets.
Add support for sending TCP Selective Acknowledgements. This provides
the sender with more detailed information about which packets have
been lost, and so allows for a more efficient retransmission strategy.
We include a SACK-permitted option in our SYN packet, since
experimentation shows that at least Linux peers will not include a
SACK-permitted option in the SYN-ACK packet if one was not present in
the initial SYN. (RFC2018 does not seem to mandate this behaviour,
but it is consistent with the approach taken in RFC1323.) We ignore
any received SACK options; this is safe to do since SACK is only ever
advisory and we never have to send non-trivial amounts of data.
Since our TCP receive queue is a candidate for cache discarding under
low memory conditions, we may end up discarding data that has been
reported as received via a SACK option. This is permitted by RFC2018.
We follow the stricture that SACK blocks must not report data which is
no longer held by the receiver: previously-reported blocks are
validated against the current receive queue before being included
within the current SACK block list.
Experiments in a qemu VM using forced packet drops (by setting
NETDEV_DISCARD_RATE to 32) show that implementing SACK improves
throughput by around 400%.
Experiments with a USB2 NIC (an SMSC7500) show that implementing SACK
improves throughput by around 700%, increasing the download rate from
35Mbps up to 250Mbps (which is approximately the usable bandwidth
limit for USB2).

This driver is functional but any downloads via a TCP-based protocol
tend to perform poorly. The 1Gbps Ethernet line rate is substantially
higher than the 480Mbps (in practice around 280Mbps) provided by USB2,
and the device has only 32kB of internal buffer memory. Our 256kB TCP
receive window therefore rapidly overflows the RX FIFO, leading to
multiple dropped packets (usually within the same TCP window) and
hence a low overall throughput.
Reducing the TCP window size so that the RX FIFO does not overflow
greatly increases throughput, but is not a general-purpose solution.
Further investigation is required to determine how other OSes
(e.g. Linux) cope with this scenario. It is possible that
implementing TCP SACK would provide some benefit.

Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>
At some point in the past few years, binutils became more aggressive
at removing unused symbols. To function as a symbol requirement, a
relocation record must now be in a section marked with @progbits and
must not be in a section which gets discarded during the link (either
via --gc-sections or via /DISCARD/).
Update REQUIRE_SYMBOL() to generate relocation records meeting these
criteria. To minimise the impact upon the final binary size, we use
existing symbols (specified via the REQUIRING_SYMBOL() macro) as the
relocation targets where possible. We use R_386_NONE or R_X86_64_NONE
relocation types to prevent any actual unwanted relocation taking
place. Where no suitable symbol exists for REQUIRING_SYMBOL() (such
as in config.c), the macro PROVIDE_REQUIRING_SYMBOL() can be used to
generate a one-byte-long symbol to act as the relocation target.
If there are versions of binutils for which this approach fails, then
the fallback will probably involve killing off REQUEST_SYMBOL(),
redefining REQUIRE_SYMBOL() to use the current definition of
REQUEST_SYMBOL(), and postprocessing the linked ELF file with
something along the lines of "nm -u | wc -l" to check that there are
no undefined symbols remaining.
