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.
Fix by using the real node GUID.

ib_smc_update() potentially updates the Infiniband port state, and so

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).

iPXE has never supported SEEK_END; the usage of "whence" offers only

iPXE currently forces sending (i.e. sends a pure ACK even in the
absence of fresh data to send) only in response to packets that
consume sequence space or that lie outside of the receive window.
This ignores the possibility that a previous ACK was not actually sent
(due to, for example, the retransmission timer running).
This does not cause incorrect behaviour, but does cause unnecessary
retransmissions from our peer. For example:
1. Peer sends final data packet (ack 106 seq 521..523)
2. We send FIN (seq 106..107 ack 523)
3. Peer sends FIN (ack 106 seq 523..524)
4. We send nothing since retransmission timer is running for our FIN
5. Peer ACKs our FIN (ack 107 seq 524..524)
6. We send nothing since this packet consumes no sequence space
7. Peer retransmits FIN (ack 107 seq 523..524)
8. We ACK peer's FIN (seq 107..107 ack 524)
What should happen at step (6) is that we should ACK the peer's FIN,
since we can deduce that we have never sent this ACK.
Fix by maintaining an "ACK pending" flag that is set whenever we are
made aware that our peer needs an ACK (whether by consuming sequence
space or by sending a packet that appears out of order), and is
cleared only when the ACK packet has been transmitted.

iPXE currently repurposes the retransmission timer to hold the TCP
connection in the TIME_WAIT state (i.e. waiting for up to 2*MSL in
case we are required to re-ACK our peer's FIN due to a lost ACK).
However, the fact that this timer is running will prevent such an ACK
from ever being sent, since the logic in tcp_xmit() assumes that a
running timer indicates that we ourselves are waiting for an ACK and
so blocks the transmission. (We always wait for an ACK before sending
our next packet, to keep our transmit data path as simple as
possible.)
Fix by using an entirely separate timer for the TIME_WAIT state, so
that packets can still be sent.

It is permissible for a DHCP packet containing PXE options to specify

Instead of keeping only the best IP and PXE offers, store all of them,
and pick the best to use just before a request is sent. This allows
priority differentiation to work even when lower-priority offers
provide PXE options, and improves robustness at sites with broken PXE
servers intermingled with working ones: when a ProxyDHCP request times
out, instead of giving up, we try the next PXE offer we've received.
It also allows us to avoid breaking up combined IP+PXE offers, which
can be important with some firewall configurations. This behavior
matches that of most vendor PXE ROMs.
Store a reference to the DHCPOFFER packet in the offer structure, so
that when registering settings after a successful ACK we can register
the proxy PXE settings we originally received; this removes the need
for a nonstandard duplicate REQUEST/ACK to port 67 of proxy servers
like dnsmasq that provide PXE options in the OFFER.

When a DHCP session is started (using autoboot or a command-line `dhcp
net0'), check whether the new setting use-cached (DHCP option 175.178)
is TRUE; if so, skip DHCP and rely on currently registered
settings. This lets one combine a static IP with autoboot.
Before checking the use-cached setting, call a weak
get_cached_dhcpack() hook that can be implemented by particular builds
of gPXE supporting some fashion of retrieving a cached DHCPACK packet.
If one is available, it is registered as an options source, and then
either that packet's option 175.178 or the user's prior manual
use-cached setting can allow skipping duplicate DHCP.
Using cached packets is not the default because DHCP servers are often
configured to give gPXE different options than they give a vendor PXE
client; in order to break the infinite loop of PXE chaining, one would
need to load a gPXE with an embedded image that does something more

pxenv_tftp_get_fsize is an API call that PXE clients can call to
obtain the size of a remote file. It is implemented by starting a TFTP
transfer with pxe_tftp_open, waiting for the response and then
stopping the transfer with pxe_tftp_close(). This leaves the session
hanging on the TFTP server and it will try to resend the packet
repeatedly (verified with tftpd-hpa) until it times out.
This patch adds a method "tftpsize" that will abort the transfer after
the first packet is received from the server. This will terminate the
session on the server and is the same behaviour as Intel's PXE ROM
exhibits.
Together with a qemu patch to handle the ERROR packet (submitted to
qemu's mailing list), this resolves a specific issue where booting
pxegrub with qemu's TFTP server would be slow or hang.
I've tested this against qemu's tftp server and against my normal boot
infrastructure (tftpd-hpa). Booting pxegrub and loading extra files
now produces a trace similar to Intel's PXE client and there are no
