Under some circumstances (e.g. if iPXE itself is booted via iSCSI, or
after an unclean reboot), the backend may not be in the expected
InitWait state when iPXE starts up.
There is no generic reset mechanism for Xenbus devices. Recent
versions of xen-netback will gracefully perform all of the required
steps if the frontend sets its state to Initialising. Older versions
(such as that found in XenServer 6.2.0) require the frontend to
transition through Closed before reaching Initialising.
Add a reset mechanism for netfront devices which does the following:
- read current backend state
- if backend state is anything other than InitWait, then set the
frontend state to Closed and wait for the backend to also reach
Closed
- set the frontend state to Initialising and wait for the backend to
reach InitWait.

Using version 1 grant tables limits guests to using 16TB of grantable
RAM, and prevents the use of subpage grants. Some versions of the Xen
hypervisor refuse to allow the grant table version to be set after the
first grant references have been created, so the loaded operating
system may be stuck with whatever choice we make here. We therefore
currently use version 2 grant tables, since they give the most
flexibility to the loaded OS.
Current versions (7.2.0) of the Windows PV drivers have no support for
version 2 grant tables, and will merrily create version 1 entries in
what the hypervisor believes to be a version 2 table. This causes
some confusion.
Avoid this problem by attempting to use version 1 tables, since
otherwise we may render Windows unable to boot.
Play nicely with other potential bootloaders by accepting either
version 1 or version 2 grant tables (if we are unable to set our
requested version).
Note that the use of version 1 tables on a 64-bit system introduces a
possible failure path in which a frame number cannot fit into the
32-bit field within the v1 structure. This in turn introduces
additional failure paths into netfront_transmit() and
netfront_refill_rx().

The behavior observed in the Apple EFI (1.10) RecieveFilters() call
is:
- failure if any of the PROMISCUOUS or MULTICAST filters are
included
- success if only UNICAST is included, however the result is
UNICAST|BROADCAST
- success if only UNICAST and BROADCAST are included
- if UNICAST, or UNICAST|BROADCAST are used, but the previous call
tried (and failed) to set UNICAST|BROADCAST|MULTICAST, then the
result is UNICAST|BROADCAST|MULTICAST
Work around this apparently broken SNP implementation by trying
RecieveFilterMask, then falling back to UNICAST|BROADCAST|MULTICAST,
then UNICAST|BROADCAST, and finally UNICAST.

As of commit d28bb51 ("[tcp] Defer sending ACKs until all received
packets have been processed"), increasing the RX ring size will
increase the number of received packets per transmitted ACK (since
each poll will process up to one complete receive ring). Under KVM,
this can make a substantial (up to ~200%) difference to the overall
download speed, since transmissions are very expensive.
Increase the ring fill level from four to eight packets: this
increases the download speed by around 50% at a cost of around 8kB of
heap space. Further speedups are possible by increasing the ring size
further, but it would be preferable to find alternative methods which
do not use noticeable amounts of heap space.

On an Asus Z87-K motherboard with an onboard 8168 NIC, booting into

received. A cold reboot clears the problem.
A dump of the PHY registers reveals only one difference: in the
failure case the bits ADVERTISE_PAUSE_CAP and ADVERTISE_PAUSE_ASYM are

A dump of the MAC registers reveals a few differences, of which the

This reverts commit 15c1200 ("[hermon] Work around missing mport
support in current BOFM implementations").
Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>
Current BOFM versions are unable to create entries with mport>1, which
means that only the port 1 MAC address can be explicitly specified.
Work around this by using the provided MAC address as a base address
for all subsequent ports. For example, if BOFM assigns the address
00:1A:64:76:00:09 for port 1
then we will assign the addresses
00:1A:64:76:00:09 for port 1
00:1A:64:76:00:0a for port 2
Future BOFM versions that may correctly support mport will work with
this scheme without modification provided that the BOFM entries are
created in increasing order of mport. Since BOFM tools tend to
generate entries in increasing order (of slot, port, etc), this is not
an unreasonable compromise.

iPXE operates the forcedeth NIC in promiscuous mode, and never changes
the unicast MAC address filter registers. We should not therefore set
the flag indicating (to other drivers loaded later) that the MAC
address order has already been corrected.

The forcedeth driver currently implements unicast MAC address
filtering in software. This is almost invariably the wrong thing to
do (since the network stack must already be able to cope with unwanted
packets) and it breaks FCoE (which requires the card to operate in
promiscuous mode).
Also, the implementation is buggy: is_local_ether_addr() is used to
check for a locally-assigned Ethernet address (not to check for a
unicast address), and the current link-layer address is in
netdev->ll_addr, not netdev->hw_addr.
Fix by removing this code.

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"

iPXE currently uses the first port's port GUID as the node GUID,
rather than using the (possibly distinct) real node GUID. This can
confuse opensm during the handover to a loaded OS: it thinks the port
already belongs to a different node and so discards our port
information with a warning message about duplicate ports. Everything
is picked up correctly on the second subnet sweep, after opensm has
established that the "old" node no longer exists, but this can delay
link-up unnecessarily by several seconds.

The block device interface used in gPXE predates the invention of even
the old gPXE data-transfer interface, let alone the current iPXE
generic asynchronous interface mechanism. Bring this old code up to
date, with the following benefits:
o Block device commands can be cancelled by the requestor. The INT 13
layer uses this to provide a global timeout on all INT 13 calls,
with the result that an unexpected passive failure mode (such as
an iSCSI target ACKing the request but never sending a response)
will lead to a timeout that gets reported back to the INT 13 user,
rather than simply freezing the system.
o INT 13,00 (reset drive) is now able to reset the underlying block
device. INT 13 users, such as DOS, that use INT 13,00 as a method
for error recovery now have a chance of recovering.
o All block device commands are tagged, with a numerical tag that
will show up in debugging output and in packet captures; this will
allow easier interpretation of bug reports that include both
sources of information.
o The extremely ugly hacks used to generate the boot firmware tables
have been eradicated and replaced with a generic acpi_describe()
method (exploiting the ability of iPXE interfaces to pass through
methods to an underlying interface). The ACPI tables are now
built in a shared data block within .bss16, rather than each
requiring dedicated space in .data16.
o The architecture-independent concept of a SAN device has been
exposed to the iPXE core through the sanboot API, which provides
calls to hook, unhook, boot, and describe SAN devices. This
allows for much more flexible usage patterns (such as hooking an
empty SAN device and then running an OS installer via TFTP).

Doorbell records are currently embedded within the completion queue
and receive work queue strucures, which are allocated using zalloc()
and so have an alignment guarantee of only sizeof(void*), i.e. four
bytes. This is sufficient for the receive work queue, but not for the
completion queue, which requires an alignment guarantee of eight
bytes.
Though not guaranteed, it so happens that zalloc() will always return
a pointer that is exactly four bytes above a sixteen-byte boundary.
The completion queue doorbell record is therefore always misaligned,
and the value passed to the hardware via SW2HW_CQ is actually always
pointing to the page_offset value within the MTT descriptor (which
directly precedes the inline doorbell record). Provided that the page
offset is greater than 0x100, this looks to the hardware like an
update_ci value of greater than 0x010000 (taking into account
endianness differences), and so the hardware will happily deliver more
than 0x010000 completions before stopping. Hence this problem is
rarely observable.
Fix by allocating the doorbell records separately and using the
correct alignment constraints.
