EFI's device naming model requires drivers to provide names for child
devices. Allow the driver's GetControllerName() method to delegate to
an instance of EFI_COMPONENT_NAME2_PROTOCOL installed on the child
device itself (if present); this allows the SNP device to expose its
own device name via the PCI driver's GetControllerName() method.

Including a netdev_poll() within net_tx() can cause the net_step()

Network devices must now ensure that the TX ring is at least as large

TLS servers are not obliged to implement the RFC3546 maximum fragment
length extension, and many common servers (including OpenSSL, as used
in Apache's mod_ssl) do not do so. iPXE may therefore have to cope
with TLS records of up to 16kB. Allocations for 16kB have a
non-negligible chance of failing, causing the TLS connection to abort.
Fix by maintaining the received record as a linked list of I/O
buffers, rather than a single contiguous buffer. To reduce memory
pressure, we also decrypt in situ, and deliver the decrypted data via
xfer_deliver_iob() rather than xfer_deliver_raw().

When fetching a named setting using a name that does not explicitly
specify a type, default to using the type stored when the setting was
created, rather than always defaulting to "string". This allows the
behaviour of user-defined settings to match the behaviour of
predefined settings (which have a sensible default type).
For example:
set server:ipv4 192.168.0.1
echo ${server}
will now print "192.168.0.1", rather than trying to print out the raw
IPv4 address bytes as a string.
The downside of this change is that existing tricks for printing
special characters within scripts may require (backwards-compatible)
modification. For example, the "clear screen" sequence:
set esc:hex 1b
set cls ${esc}[2J
echo ${cls}

set cls ${esc:string}[2J # Must now explicitly specify ":string"

COMBOOT images are detected by looking for a ".com" or ".cbt" filename

Avoid false detection of PXE images as COMBOOT images by accepting
only a ".cbt" extension as indicating a COMBOOT image.
Interestingly, this bug has been present for a long time but was
frequently concealed because the filename was truncated to fit the
fixed-length "name" field in struct image. (PXE binaries ending in
".com" tend to be related to Windows deployment products and so often
use pathnames including backslashes, which iPXE doesn't recognise as a
path separator and so treats as part of a very long filename.)

I/O buffers are allocated on aligned boundaries. The I/O buffer
descriptor (the struct io_buffer) is currently attached to the end of
the I/O buffer. When the size of the buffer is close to its
alignment, this can waste large amounts of aligned memory.
For example, a network card using 2048-byte receive buffers will end
up allocating 2072 bytes on a 2048-byte boundary. This effectively
wastes 50% of the available memory.
Improve the situation by allocating the descriptor separately from the
main I/O buffer if inline allocation would cause the total allocated
size to cross the alignment boundary.

The current logic is to process at most one received packet per call
to net_poll(), on the basis that refilling the hardware descriptor
ring should be delayed as little as possible. However, this limits
the rate at which packets can be processed and ultimately ends up
adding latency which, in turn, limits the achievable throughput.
With temporary modifications in place to essentially remove all
resource constraints (heap size increased to 16MB, RX descriptor ring
increased to 64 descriptors) and a TCP window size of 1MB, the
throughput on a gigabit (i.e. 119MBps) network can be observed to fall
off exponentially from around 115MBps to around 75MBps. Changing
net_poll() to process all received packets results in a steady
119MBps throughput.

Each ARP cache entry maintains a transmission queue, which is sent out
as soon as the link-layer address is known. If multiple packets are
queued, then it is possible for memory pressure to cause the ARP cache
discarder to be invoked during transmission of the first packet, which
may cause the ARP cache entry to be deleted before the second packet
can be sent. This results in an invalid pointer dereference.
Avoid this problem by reference-counting ARP cache entries and
ensuring that an extra reference is held while processing the
transmission queue, and by using list_first_entry() rather than

FCoE requires the use of multiple local unicast link-layer addresses.
To avoid the complexity of managing multiple addresses, iPXE operates
in promiscuous mode. As a consequence, any unicast packets with
non-matching IPv4 addresses are rejected at the IPv4 layer (rather
than at the link layer).
This can cause problems when issuing a second DHCP request: if the
address chosen by the DHCP server does not match the existing address,
then the DHCP response will itself be rejected.
Fix by requesting a broadcast response from the DHCP server if the
network interface already has any IPv4 addresses.

A .mrom image currently assumes that it is the first image within the
expansion ROM BAR, which may not be correct when multiple images are
present.
Fix by scanning through the BAR until we locate an image matching our
build ID.

The header of a .mrom image declares its length to be only a few
kilobytes; the remainder is accessed via a sideband mechanism. This
makes it difficult to append an additional ROM image, such as an EFI
ROM.
Add a second, dummy ROM header covering the payload portion of the
.mrom image, allowing consumers to locate any appended ROM images in
the usual way.

EFI_PCI_DEVICE_ENABLE is a list of the standard attributes that must
be enabled for a PCI device to function: I/O cycles, memory cycles,
and bus-mastering. We currently call EFI_PCI_IO_PROTOCOL::Attribute()
with the parameter EFI_PCI_DEVICE_ENABLE to enable a PCI device. This
should translate to a single write to PCI configuration space.
Simplicity is not a virtue within the UEFI world. Some platforms will
'helpfully' report an error if EFI_PCI_DEVICE_ENABLE is used on a
device that doesn't actually support all three of the relevant
attributes. For example, if a PCI device provides only memory-mapped
accesses (and so hardwires the I/O enable bit to zero), then using
EFI_PCI_DEVICE_ENABLE on such a platform will result in an
EFI_UNSUPPORTED error.
There is no plausible use case in which it is useful for the platform
to return an error in this way, and doing so makes it impossible to
distinguish genuine errors from noise.
Work around this broken behaviour by attempting to enable the three
attributes individually, and ignoring any errors.

At present, certificate chain validation is treated as an

certificate, or determining certificate revocation status via OCSP.

chains to outlive the scope of the original source of certificates
(such as a TLS Certificate record).

Changing the trusted root certificate currently requires a rebuild of
the iPXE binary, which may be inconvenient or impractical.
Allow the list of trusted root certificate fingerprints to be
overridden using the "trust" setting, but only at the point of iPXE
initialisation. This prevents untrusted sources of settings
(e.g. DHCP) from subverting the chain of trust, while allowing
trustworthy sources to change the trusted root certificate without
requiring a rebuild.
The basic idea is that if you are able to manipulate a trustworthy
source of settings (e.g. VMware GuestInfo or non-volatile stored
options), then you would be able to replace the iPXE binary anyway,
and so no security is lost by allowing such sources to override the
list of trusted root certificates.
