There is no INT 10 call for "display character with attribute,
advancing the cursor and scrolling the screen as necessary". We
therefore make two INT 10 calls: INT 10,09 to write the character with
its attribute at the current cursor position, and then INT 10,0e to
(re)write the character (leaving the attribute unchanged), advance the
cursor position and scroll as necessary.
This confuses the serial-over-LAN console redirection feature provided
by some BIOSes.
Fix by performing the INT10,09 only when necessary to change the
existing attribute.

Some PXE stacks (observed with a QLogic 8242) will always try to

to allocate potentially very large buffers.

PXENV_FILE_EXIT_HOOK is designed to allow ipxelinux.0 to unload both
the iPXE and pxelinux components without affecting the underlying PXE
stack. Unfortunately, it causes unexpected behaviour in other
situations, such as when loading a non-embedded pxelinux.0 via
undionly.kpxe. For example:
PXE ROM -> undionly.kpxe -> pxelinux.0 -> chain.c32 to boot hd0
would cause control to return to iPXE instead of booting from the hard
disk. In some cases, this would result in a harmless but confusing
"No more network devices" message; in other cases stranger things
would happen, such as being returned to the iPXE shell prompt.
The fundamental problem is that when pxelinux detects
PXENV_FILE_EXIT_HOOK, it may attempt to specify an exit hook and then
exit back to iPXE, assuming that iPXE will in turn exit cleanly via
the specified exit hook. This is not a valid assumption in the
general case, since the action of exiting back to iPXE does not
directly cause iPXE to exit itself. (In the specific case of
ipxelinux.0, this will work since the embedded script exits as soon as
pxelinux.0 exits.)
Fix the unexpected behaviour in the non-ipxelinux.0 cases by including
support for PXENV_FILE_EXIT_HOOK only when using a new .kkkpxe format.
The ipxelinux.0 build process should therefore now use undionly.kkkpxe
instead of undionly.kkpxe.

Several BIOSes (including most IBM BIOSes and many virtual machine
BIOSes) do not provide detectable PnP support, but will use the BEV
entry point for a PnP option ROM. On these semi-PnP BIOSes, iPXE will
respond to the absence of detectable PnP support by hooking INT19,
which disrupts the boot order.
BIOSes that genuinely require hooking INT19 seem to be very rare
nowadays. It may therefore be preferable to assume that the absence
of detectable PnP support indicates a semi-PnP BIOS rather than a
non-PnP BIOS.
Change the default behaviour so that INT19 will never be hooked unless
the compile-time option NONPNP_HOOK_INT19 is enabled. Leave the

0x00000000000007a8 _text16_late_memsz = ABSOLUTE ((_etext16 - _text16_late))

Some PXE stacks advertise that interrupts are not supported, despite
requiring the use of interrupts. Attempt to cope with such cards
without breaking others by always hooking the interrupt, and using the
"interrupts supported" flag only to decide whether or not to wait for
an interrupt before calling PXENV_UNDI_ISR_IN_PROCESS.
The possible combinations are therefore:
1. Card generates interrupts and claims to support interrupts
iPXE will call PXENV_UNDI_ISR_IN_PROCESS only after an interrupt
has been observed. (This is required to avoid lockups in some PXE
stacks, which spuriously sulk if called before an interrupt has
been generated.)
Such a card should work correctly.
2. Card does not generate interrupts and does not claim to support
interrupts
iPXE will call PXENV_UNDI_ISR_IN_PROCESS indiscriminately, matching
the observed behaviour of at least one other PXE NBP (winBoot/i).
Such a card should work correctly.
3. Card generates interrupts but claims not to support interrupts
iPXE will call PXENV_UNDI_ISR_IN_PROCESS indiscriminately. An
interrupt will still result in a call to PXENV_UNDI_ISR_IN_START.
Such a card may work correctly.
4. Card does not generate interrupts but claims to support interrupts
Such a card will not work at all.

iPXE allocates its first PMM block using the image source length,
which is rounded up to the nearest 16-byte paragraph. It then copies

theoretically less than or equal to the image source length, but is
rounded up to the nearest 512-byte sector. This can result in copying
beyond the end of the allocated PMM block, which can corrupt the PMM
