ath_rx_init() demonstrates some serious confusion over how to use
pointers, resulting in (uint32_t*)NULL being used as a temporary
variable. This does not end well.
The broken code in question is performing manual alignment of I/O
buffers, which can now be achieved more simply using alloc_iob_raw().
Fix by removing ath_rxbuf_alloc() entirely.

Some protocols (such as ARP) may modify the received packet and re-use
the same I/O buffer for transmission of a reply. The SMSC95XX
transmit header is larger than the receive header: the re-used I/O
buffer therefore does not have sufficient headroom for the transmit
header, and the ARP reply will therefore fail to be transmitted. This
is essentially the same problem as in commit 2e72d10 ("[ncm] Reserve
headroom in received packets").
Fix by reserving sufficient space at the start of each received packet
to allow for the difference between the lengths of the transmit and
receive headers.
This problem is not caught by the current driver development test
suite (documented at http://ipxe.org/dev/driver), since even the large
file transfer tests tend to completely sufficiently quickly that there
is no need for the server to ever send an ARP request. The failure
shows up only when using a very slow protocol such as RFC7440-enhanced
TFTP (as used by Windows Deployment Services).

The LED pins are configured by default as GPIO inputs. While it is
conceivable that a board might actually use these pins as GPIOs, no
such board is known to exist.
The Linux smsc95xx driver configures these pins unconditionally as LED
outputs. Assume that it is safe to do likewise.

Some xHCI controllers (such as qemu's emulated xHCI controller) do not
correctly handle zero-length packets that are part of a TRB chain.
The zero-length TRB ends up being squashed and does not result in a
zero-length packet as seen by the device.
Work around this problem by marking the zero-length packet as
belonging to a separate transfer descriptor.

Some hubs (e.g. the Avocent Corp. Virtual Hub on a Lenovo x3550
Integrated Management Module) have been observed to require more than
the standard 200ms for ports to stabilise, with the result that
devices appear to disconnect and immediately reconnect during the
initial bus enumeration.
Work around this problem by allowing specific hubs an extra 500ms of
settling time.

Record the speed of a USB device based on the port's speed at the time
that the device was enabled. This allows us to remember the device's
speed even after the device has been disconnected (and so the port's
current speed has changed).
In particular, this allows us to correctly identify the transaction
translator for a low-speed or full-speed device after the device has
been disconnected.

The usb_message() and usb_stream() functions currently check for
port->speed==USB_SPEED_NONE to determine whether or not a device has
been unplugged. This test will give a false negative result if a new
device has been plugged in before the hotplug mechanism has finished
handling the removal of the old device.
Fix by checking instead the port->disconnected flag, which is now
cleared only after completing the removal of the old device.

Tested using QEMU and usbredir to expose the LAN9512 chip present on a
Raspberry Pi.
There is a known issue with the LAN9512: an extra two bytes are
appended to every transmitted packet. These two bytes comprise:
{ 0x00, 0x08 } if packet length == 0 (mod 8)
{ CRC[0], 0x00 } if packet length == 7 (mod 8)
{ CRC[0], CRC[1] } otherwise
The extra bytes are appended whether the Ethernet CRC is generated
manually or added automatically by the hardware. The issue occurs
with the Linux kernel driver as well as the iPXE driver. It appears
to be an undocumented hardware errata.
TCP/IP traffic is not affected, since the IP header length field
causes the extraneous bytes to be discarded by the receiver. However,
protocols that rely on the length of the Ethernet frame (such as FCoE
or iPXE's "lotest" protocol) will be unusable on this hardware.

On some models (notably ICH), the PHY reset mechanism appears to be
broken. In particular, the PHY_CTRL register will be correctly loaded
from NVM but the values will not be propagated to the "OEM bits" PHY
register. This typically has the effect of dropping the link speed to
10Mbps.
Since the original version of this driver in commit 945e428 ("[intel]
Replace driver for Intel Gigabit NICs"), we have always worked around
this problem by skipping the PHY reset if the link is already up.
Enhance this workaround by explicitly checking for known-broken PCI
IDs.

Generate a score for each possible USB device configuration based on
the available driver support, and select the configuration with the
highest score. This will allow us to prefer ECM over RNDIS (for
devices which support both) and will allow us to meaningfully select a
configuration even when we have drivers available for all functions
(e.g. when exposing unused functions via EFI_USB_IO_PROTOCOL).

Allow iPXE to coexist with other USB device drivers, by attaching to
the EFI_USB_IO_PROTOCOL instances provided by the UEFI platform
firmware.
The EFI_USB_IO_PROTOCOL is an unsurprisingly badly designed
abstraction of a USB device. The poor design choices intrinsic in the
UEFI specification prevent efficient operation as a network device,
with the result that devices operated using the EFI_USB_IO_PROTOCOL
operate approximately two orders of magnitude slower than devices
operated using our native EHCI or xHCI host controller drivers.
Since the performance is so abysmally slow, and since the underlying
problems are due to fundamental architectural mistakes in the UEFI
specification, support for the EFI_USB_IO_PROTOCOL host controller
driver is left as disabled by default. Users are advised to use the
native iPXE host controller drivers instead.

The Infiniband link status change callback ipoib_link_state_changed()
may be called while the IPoIB device is closed, in which case there
will not be an IPoIB queue pair to be joined to the IPv4 broadcast
group. This leads to NULL pointer dereferences in ib_mcast_attach()
and ib_mcast_detach().
Fix by not attempting to join (or leave) the broadcast group unless we
actually have an IPoIB queue pair.

Multicast MAC addresses will never have REMAC cache entries, and the
corresponding multicast IPoIB MAC address cannot be obtained simply by
issuing an ARP request.
For the trivial volume of multicast packets that we expect to send in
any realistic scenario, the simplest solution is to send them as
broadcasts instead.

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.

Some Intel Skylake platforms (observed on a prototype Lenovo ThinkPad)
report the list of available USB3 protocol speed ID values as {1,2,3}
but then report a port's speed using ID value 4.
The value 4 happens to be the default value for SuperSpeed (when no
protocol speed ID value list is explicitly defined), and the hardware
seems to function correctly if we simply ignore its protocol speed ID
table and assume that it uses the default values.
Fix by adding a "broken PSI values" quirk for this controller.
