The Phantom firmware selectively disables PCI functions based on the
board type, with the end result that we see one PCI function for each
network port. This allows us to eliminate the code for reading from
flash and, more importantly, removes knowledge of the board type magic
number from the gPXE driver.
This function is a major kludge, but can be made slightly more
accurate by ignoring net devices that aren't open. Eventually it
needs to be removed entirely.
Settings can be constructed using a dotted-decimal notation, to allow
for access to unnamed settings. The default interpretation is as a
DHCP option number (with encapsulated options represented as
"<encapsulating option>.<encapsulated option>".
In several contexts (e.g. SMBIOS, Phantom CLP), it is useful to
interpret the dotted-decimal notation as referring to non-DHCP
options. In this case, it becomes necessary for these contexts to
ignore standard DHCP options, otherwise we end up trying to, for
example, retrieve the boot filename from SMBIOS.
Allow settings blocks to specify a "tag magic". When dotted-decimal
notation is used to construct a setting, the tag magic value of the
originating settings block will be ORed in to the tag number.
Store/fetch methods can then check for the magic number before
interpreting arbitrarily-numbered settings.
This extends the sanity checks on the runtime segment address provided
in %bx, first implemented in commit 5600955.
We now allow the ROM to be placed anywhere above a000:0000 (rather
than c000:0000, as before), since this is the region allowed by the
PCI 3 spec. If the BIOS asks us to place the runtime image such that
it would overlap with the init-time image (which is explicitly
prohibited by the PCI 3 spec), then we assume that the BIOS is faulty
and ignore the provided runtime segment address.
Testing on a SuperMicro BIOS providing overlapping segment addresses
shows that ignoring the provided runtime segment address is safe to do
in these circumstances.
This interface provides access to firmware settings (e.g. MAC address)
that will apply to all drivers loaded for the duration of the current
system boot.
A hardware bug means that reads through the expansion ROM BAR can
return corrupted data if the PEGs are running. This breaks platforms
that re-read the expansion ROM after invoking gPXE code, such as IBM
blade servers.
Halt PEGs during driver shutdown, and unhalt PEGs during driver
startup if we detect that this is not the first startup since
power-on.
A DOS-style full path name such as "C:\Program Files\tftpboot\nbp.0"
satisfies the syntax requirements for a URI with a scheme of "C" and
an opaque portion of "\Program Files\tftpboot\nbp.0".
Add a check in parse_uri() to ignore schemes that are apparently only
a single character long; this avoids interpreting DOS-style paths in
this way, and shouldn't affect any practical URI scheme.
Most other Phantom drivers define a register space in terms of a 64M
virtual address space. While this doesn't map in any meaningful way
to the actual addresses used on the latest cards, it makes maintenance
easier if we do the same.
Someone at Dell must have a full-time job designing ways to screw up
implementations of INT 15,e820. This latest gem is courtesy of a Dell
Xanadu system, which arbitrarily decides to obliterate the contents of
%esi.
Preserve %esi, %edi and %ebp across calls to INT 15,e820, in case
someone tries a variation on this trick in future.
Callers (e.g. usr/autoboot.c) may not check the return values from
fetch_xxx_setting(), assuming that in error cases the returned setting
value will be "empty" (for some sensible value of "empty").
In particular, if the DHCP server did not specify a next-server
address, this would result in gPXE using uninitialised data for the
TFTP server IP address.
FreeBSD requires the object format to be specified as elf_i386_fbsd,
rather than elf_i386.

Some PCI 3 BIOSes seem to provide a garbage value in %bx, which should
contain the runtime segment address. Perform a basic sanity check: we
reject the segment if it is below the start of option ROM space. If
the sanity check fails, we assume that the BIOS was not expecting us
to be a PCI 3 ROM, and we just leave our image in situ.
The section name seems to have significance for some versions of
binutils.
There is no way to instruct gcc that sections such as .bss16 contain
uninitialised data; it will emit them with contents explicitly set to
zero. We therefore have to rely on the linker script to force these
sections to become uninitialised-data sections. We do this by marking
them as NOLOAD; this seems to be the closest semantic equivalent in the
linker script language.
However, this gets ignored by some versions of ld (including 2.17 as
shipped with Debian Etch), which mark the resulting sections with
(CONTENTS,ALLOC,LOAD,DATA). Combined with the fact that this version of
ld seems to ignore the specified LMA for these sections, this means that
they end up overlapping other sections, and so parts of .prefix (for
example) get obliterated by .data16's bss section.
Rename the .bss sections from .section_bss to .bss.section; this seems to
cause these versions of ld to treat them as uninitialised data.
Not fully understood, but it seems that the LMA of bss sections matters
for some newer binutils builds. Force all bss sections to have an LMA
at the end of the file, so that they don't interfere with other
sections.
The symptom was that objcopy -O binary -j .zinfo would extract the
.zinfo section from bin/xxx.tmp as a blob of the correct length, but
with zero contents. This would then cause the [ZBIN] stage of the
build to fail.
Also explicitly state that .zinfo(.*) sections have @progbits, in case
some future assembler or linker variant decides to omit them.
The virtnet_transmit() logic for waiting the packet to be transmitted is
reversed: we can't wait the packet to be transmitted if we didn't kick()
the ring yet. The vring_more_used() while loop logic is reversed also,
that explains why the code works today.
The current code risks trying to free a buffer from the used ring
when none was available, that will happen most times because KVM
doesn't handle the packet immediately on kick(). Luckily it was working
because it was unlikely to have a buffer still queued for transmit when
virtnet_transmit() was called.
Also, adds a BUG_ON() to vring_get_buf(), to catch cases where we try
to free a buffer from the used ring when there was none available.

EFI requires us to be able to specify the source address for
individual transmitted packets, and to be able to extract the
destination address on received packets.
Take advantage of this to rationalise the push() and pull() methods so
that push() takes a (dest,source,proto) tuple and pull() returns a
(dest,source,proto) tuple.
Multicast hashing is an ugly overlap between network and link layers.
EFI requires us to provide access to this functionality, so move it
out of ipv4.c and expose it as a method of the link layer.
Some versions of ld choke on the "AT ( _xxx_lma )" in efi.lds with an
error saying "nonconstant expression for load base". Since these were
only explicitly setting the LMA to the address that it would have had
anyway, they can be safely omitted.
We have EFI APIs for CPU I/O, PCI I/O, timers, console I/O, user
access and user memory allocation.
EFI executables are created using the vanilla GNU toolchain, with the
EXE header handcrafted in assembly and relocations generated by a
custom efilink utility.
monojob_wait() was holding a reference to the completed job, meaning that
various objects would not be freed until the next job was plugged in to
the monojob interface.
The userptr_t is now the fundamental type that gets used for conversions.
For example, virt_to_phys() is implemented in terms of virt_to_user() and
user_to_phys().
-Wformat-nonliteral is not enabled by -Wall and needs to be explicitly
specified.
Modified the few files that use nonliteral format strings to work with
this new setting in place.
Inspired by a patch from Carl Karsten <carl@personnelware.com> and an
identical patch from Rorschach <r0rschach@lavabit.com>.
The intention is to include near-verbatim copies of the EFI headers
required by gPXE. This is achieved using the import.pl script in
src/include/gpxe/efi.
Note that import.pl will modify any #include lines in each imported
header to reflect its new location within the gPXE tree. It will also
tidy up the file by removing carriage return characters and trailing
whitespace.
Reduce the number of sections within the linker script to match the
number of practical sections within the output file.
Define _section, _msection, _esection, _section_filesz, _section_memsz,
and _section_lma for each section, replacing the mixture of symbols that
previously existed.
In particular, replace _text and _end with _textdata and _etextdata, to
make it explicit within code that uses these symbols that the .text and
.data sections are always treated as a single contiguous block.
Allow for the build CPU architecture and platform to be specified as part
of the make command goals. For example:
make bin/rtl8139.rom # Standard i386 PC-BIOS build
make bin-efi/rtl8139.efi # i386 EFI build
The generic syntax is "bin[-[arch-]platform]", with the default
architecture being "i386" (regardless of the host architecture) and the
default platform being "pcbios".
Non-path targets such as "srcs" can be specified using e.g.
make bin-efi srcs
Note that this changeset is merely Makefile restructuring to allow the
build architecture and platform to be determined by the make command
goals, and to export these to compiled code via the ARCH and PLATFORM
defines. It doesn't actually introduce any new build platforms.
Some devices (e.g. the Atmel AT24C11) have no concept of a device
address; they respond to every device address and use this value as
the word address. Some other devices use part of the device address
field to extend the word address field.
Generalise the i2c bit-bashing support to handle this by defining the
device address length and word address length as properties of an i2c
device. The word address is assumed to overflow into the device
address field if the address used exceeds the width of the word
address field.
Also add a bus reset mechanism. i2c chips don't usually have a reset
line, so rebooting the host will not clear any bizarre state that the
chip may be in. We reset the bus by clocking SCL until we see SDA
high, at which point we know we can generate a start condition and
have it seen by all devices. We then generate a stop condition to
leave the bus in a known state prior to use.
Finally, add some extra debugging messages to i2c_bit.c.
Some older versions of gcc don't complain about unknown compiler flags
unless you ask them to actually compile; asking them to merely
preprocess won't trigger the error.
Fix the -fno-stack-protector test by making it attempt to compile an
empty file, rather than preprocess an empty file.
The usefulness of DBGLVL_IO is limited by the fact that many cards
require large numbers of uninteresting I/O reads/writes at device
probe time, typically when driving a bit-bashing I2C/SPI bus to read
the MAC address.
This patch adds the DBG_DISABLE() and DBG_ENABLE() macros, which can
be used to temporarily disable and re-enable selected debug levels.
Note that debug levels must still be enabled in the build in order to
function at all: you can't use DBG_ENABLE(DBGLVL_IO) in an object
built with DEBUG=object:1 and expect it to do anything.
?= in a Makefile means that that variable can be overridden by the
environment. This is confusing to users, especially with a generic
name like "ARCH".

Although the E820 API allows for a caller to provide only a 20-byte
buffer, there exists at least one combination (HP BIOS, 32-bit WinPE)
that relies on information found only in the "extended attributes"
field, which requires a 24-byte buffer.
Allow for up to a 64-byte E820 buffer, in the hope of coping with
future idiocies like this one.
The ACPI specification defines an additional 4-byte field at offset 20
for an E820 memory map entry. This field is presumably optional,
since generally E820 gets given only a 20-byte buffer to fill.
However, the bits of this optional field are defined as:
bit 0 : region is enabled
bit 1 : region is non-volatile memory rather than RAM
so it seems as though callers that pass in only a 20-byte buffer may
be missing out on some rather important information.
Our INT 15,e820 code was setting %es=%ss (as part of the "look ahead
in the memory map" logic), but failing to restore %es afterwards.
This is a serious bug, but wasn't affecting many platforms because
almost all callers seem to set %es=%ss anyway.
Use individual page mappings rather than a single whole-region
mapping, to avoid the waste of memory that occurs due to the
constraint that each mapped block must be aligned on its own size.
Some BIOSes require us to pass in not only the continuation value (in
%ebx) as returned by the previous call to INT 15,e820 but also the
unmodified buffer (at %es:%di) as returned by the previous call to INT
15,e820. Apparently, someone thought it would be a worthwhile
optimisation to fill in only the low dword of the "length" field and
the low byte of the "type field", assuming that the buffer would
remain unaltered from the previous call.
This problem was being triggered by the "peek ahead" logic in
get_mangled_e820(), which would read the next entry into a temporary
buffer in order to be able to guarantee terminating the map with
%ebx=0 rather than CF=1. (Terminating with CF=1 upsets some Windows
flavours, despite being documented legal behaviour.)
Work around this problem by always fetching directly into our e820
cache; that way we can guarantee that the underlying call always sees
the previous buffer contents (and the same buffer address).
We were accidentally allocating only half the required amount of
memory (given the alignment method) for the firmware buffer, leading
to conflicts between the firmware buffer and gPXE code/data segments.
We were accidentally allocating only half the required amount of
memory (given the alignment method) for the firmware buffer, leading
to conflicts between the firmware buffer and gPXE code/data segments.
We seem to be having issues with various E820 memory maps. These
problems are often difficult to reproduce, requiring access to the
specific system exhibiting the problem.
Add a facility for hooking in a fake E820 map generator, using an
arbitrary map defined in a C array, solely in order to be able to test
the map-mangling code against arbitrary E820 maps.
In particular, allow BANNER_TIMEOUT=0 to inhibit the prompt banners
altogether.
Ironically, this request comes from the same OEM that originally
required the prompts to be present during POST.
Some really moronic BIOSes bring up the PXE stack via the UNDI loader
entry point during POST, and then don't bother to unload it before
overwriting the code and data segments. If this happens, we really
don't want to leave INT 15 hooked, because that will cause any loaded
OS to die horribly as soon as it attempts to fetch the system memory
map.
We use a heuristic to detect whether or not we are being loaded at the
top of free base memory. If we determine that we are being loaded at
some other arbitrary location in base memory, then we assume that it's
not safe to hook INT 15.
This allows settings to be expanded in a way that is safe to include
within a URI string, such as
kernel http://10.0.0.1/boot.php?mf=${manufacturer:uristring}
where the ${manufacturer} setting may contain characters that are not
permitted (or have reserved purposes) within a URI.
Since whitespace characters will be URI-encoded (e.g. "%20" for a
space character), this also works around the problem that spaces
within an expanded setting would cause the shell to split command-line
arguments incorrectly.
On non-BBS systems we hook INT 19, since there is no other way we can
guarantee gaining control of the flow of execution. If we end up
doing this, prompt the user before attempting boot, since forcibly
capturing INT 19 is rather antisocial.
It is possible for the BIOS to use the UNDI API to bring up the NIC
prior to system boot. If this happens, UNM_NIC_REG_CMDPEG_STATE will
contain the value 0xf00f (UNM_NIC_REG_CMDPEG_STATE_INITIALIZE_ACK),
and we should skip initialising the command PEG.
The firmware will now determine the right port mode on all cards, so
the PXE driver doesn't have to set it. (Setting the port mode
apparently breaks some newer cards.)
At least one Dell system calls the UNDI loader entry point with the
BIOS console disabled. The serial console is active only after a call
to initialise(), so move the debug message in undi_loader() so that it
can be displayed via the serial console.
If the INT 15,e820 memory map reports a region [0,0), this confuses
the "truncate to even megabytes" logic, which ends up rounding the
region 'down' to [0,fff00000).
Fix by ensuring that the region's end address is at least 1, before we
subtract 1 to obtain the "last byte in region" address.
INT 15,e801 is capable of returning a memory range that extends to
4GB, so allow for this in the debug message that shows the data
returned by INT 15,e801.
The domain etherboot.org was actually registered on 2000-01-09, not
2000-09-01. (To put it another way, it was registered on 1/9/2000 (US
date format) rather than 1/9/2000 (sensible date format); this may
illuminate the cause of the error.)
"iqn.2000-09.org.etherboot:" is still valid as per RFC3720, but may be
surprising to users, so change it to something less unexpected.
Thanks to the anonymous contributor for pointing this one out.
Apparently some BIOSes will place option ROMs on 512-byte boundaries.
While this is against specification, it doesn't actually hurt
anything, so we may as well increase our scan granularity to 512
bytes.

IBM's iSCSI Firmware Initiator checks the UNDIROMID pointer in the
!PXE structure that gets created by the UNDI loader. We didn't
previously fill this value in.
Commit f58cc3f introduced a temporary workaround for a bug in current
prototype silicon, but failed to apply it to all eight PCI functions
within the device.
Option::ROM was assuming that ROM images using a short jump
instruction for the init entry point would have a zero byte at offset
5; this is not necessarily true.
Include PMM allocation result in POST banner.
Include full product string in "starting execution" message.
Also mark ourselves as supporting DDIM in PnP header, for
completeness.
On a system that doesn't support BBS, we end up hooking INT19 to gain
control of the boot process. If the system is PCI3.0, we must take
care to use the runtime value for %cs, rather than the POST-time
value, otherwise we end up pointing INT19 to the temporary option ROM
POST scratch area.
Determine the network-layer packet type and fill it in for UNDI
clients. This is required by some NBPs such as emBoot's winBoot/i.
This change requires refactoring the link-layer portions of the
gPXE netdevice API, so that it becomes possible to strip the
link-layer header without passing the packet up the network stack.
Some dumb NBPs (e.g. emBoot's winBoot/i) never call PXENV_UNDI_ISR
with FuncFlag=PXENV_UNDI_ISR_START; they just sit in a tight polling
loop merrily violating the PXE spec with repeated calls to
PXENV_UNDI_ISR_IN_PROCESS. Force a extra calls to netdev_poll() to
cope with these out-of-spec clients.
Allow for an arbitrary number of splits of the system memory map via
INT 15,e820.
Features of the new map-mangling algorithm include:
Supports random access to e820 map entries.
Requires only sequential access support from the underlying e820
map, even if our caller uses random access.
Empty regions will always be stripped.
Always terminates with %ebx=0, even if the underlying map terminates
with CF=1.
Allows for an arbitrary number of hidden regions, with underlying
regions split into as many subregions as necessary.
Total size increase to achieve this is 193 bytes.
Define a list of N allowed memory regions, and split each underlying
e820 region into up to N subregions. Strip resulting empty regions
out of the map, avoiding using the "return with CF set to strip last
empty region" trick, because it seems that bootmgr.exe in Win2k8 gets
upset if the memory map is terminated with CF set.
This is an intermediate checkin that defines a single allowed memory
region covering the entire 64-bit address space, and uses the existing
map-mangling code on top of the new region-splitting code. This
sanitises the memory map to the point that Win2k8 is able to boot even
on a system that defines a final zero-length region at the 4GB mark.
I'm checking this in because it may be useful for future debugging
efforts to be able to run with the existing and known-working map
mangling code together with the map sanitisation capabilities of the
new map mangling code.
Add support for manipulating the jump instruction that forms the
option ROM initialisation entry point, so that mergerom.pl can treat
it just like other entry points.
Add support for merging the initialisation entry point (and IBM BOFM
table) to mergerom.pl; this is another slightly icky but unfortunately
necessary GPL vs. NDA workaround. When mergerom.pl replaces an entry
point in the original ROM, it now fills in the corresponding entry
point in the merged ROM with the original value; this allows (for
example) a merged initialisation entry point to do some processing and
then jump back to the original entry point.
fetch_string_setting() was subtracting one from the length of the
to-be-NUL-terminated buffer in order to obtain the length of the
unterminated buffer to be passed to fetch_setting(). This works
extremely well unless the length of the to-be-NUL-terminated buffer is
zero, at which point we end up giving fetch_setting() a buffer of
length -1UL, thereby inviting it to overwrite as much memory as it
wants...
The ProxyDHCPREQUEST is a unicast packet, so the first request will
almost always be lost due to not having the IP address in the ARP
cache. If the minimum retry time is set to one second (as per commit
ff2b6a5), then ProxyDHCP will time out and give up before managing to
successfully transmit a request.
The DHCP timers need to be reworked anyway, so this mild hack is
acceptable for now.
New min_timeout and max_timeout fields in struct retry_timer allow
users of this timer to set their own desired minimum and maximum
timeouts, without being constrained to a single global minimum and
maximum. Users of the timer can still elect to use the default global
values by leaving the min_timeout and max_timeout fields as 0.
WinPE seems to have a bug that causes it to always use the TFTP server
IP address and filename from the ProxyDHCPACK packet, even if the
ProxyDHCPACK packet doesn't exist. This causes it to end up
attempting to fetch a file such as
tftp://0.0.0.0/bootmgr.exe
If we don't have a ProxyDHCPACK to use, we pretend that it was a copy
of the DHCPACK packet. This works around the problem, and hopefully
won't surprise any NBPs.
Altiris erroneously cares about the ordering of DHCP options, and will
get confused if we don't construct them in the order it expects.
This is observed (so far) only when attempting to deploy 64-bit Win2k3.
This patch adds support for the virtio-net adapter provided by KVM.

When we boot from a DHCP-supplied filename, we previously relied on
the fact that the current working URI is set to tftp://[next-server]/
in order to resolve the filename into a full tftp:// URI. However,
this process will eliminate the distinction between filenames with and
without initial slashes:
cwuri="tftp://10.0.0.1/" filename="vmlinuz" => URI="tftp://10.0.0.1/vmlinuz"
cwuri="tftp://10.0.0.1/" filename="/vmlinuz" => URI="tftp://10.0.0.1/vmlinuz"
This distinction is important for some TFTP servers. We now
explicitly construct a string of the form
"tftp://[next-server]/filename"
so that a filename with an initial slash will result in a URI
containing a double-slash, e.g.
"tftp://10.0.0.1//vmlinuz"
The TFTP code always strips a single initial slash, and so ends up
presenting the correct path to the server.
URIs entered explicitly by users at the command line must include a
double slash if they want an initial slash presented to the TFTP
server:
"kernel tftp://10.0.0.1/vmlinuz" => filename="vmlinuz"
"kernel tftp://10.0.0.1//vmlinuz" => filename="/vmlinuz"
This utility is required as a workaround for legal restrictions on
including GPL and non-GPL code within the same expansion ROM image.
While this is not encouraged, we are prepared to accept that
concatenation of ROM images and updating of the ROM header data
structures can be classed as "mere aggregation" within the terms of
the GPL.
If in any doubt, assume that you cannot include GPL and non-GPL code
within the same expansion ROM image. Contact the Etherboot team for
clarification on your specific circumstances.

Add yet another ugly hack to iscsiboot.c, this time to allow the user to

Also ensure that the RDS consumer counter is incremented only when we
know that we have actually consumed an RX descriptor.

Each drive is accessed using its specified drive number. If the
specified drive number is -1, the natural drive number will be used.
Accesses to the specified drive number will be delivered to the
emulated drive, masking out any preexisting drive using this number.
Accesses to the natural drive number, if different, will be remapped to
the masked-out drive.
The overall upshot is that, for examples:
System has no drives. Emulated INT13 drive gets natural number 0x80
and specified number 0x80. Accesses to drive 0x80 go to the emulated
drive, and there is no remapping.
System has one drive. Emulated INT13 drive gets natural number 0x81
and specified number 0x80. Accesses to drive 0x80 go to the emulated
drive. Accesses to drive 0x81 get remapped to the original drive 0x80.
Verifying server ID and DHCP transaction ID is insufficient to
differentiate between DHCPACK and ProxyDHCPACK when the DHCP server and
Proxy DHCP server are the same machine.
If there is more than one loaded image, refuse to automatically select
the image to execute. There are at least two possible cases, with
different "correct" answers:
1. User loads image A by mistake, then loads image B and types "boot".
User wants to execute image B.
2. User loads image A, then loads image B (which patches image A), then
types "boot". User wants to execute image A.
If a user actually wants to load multiple images, they must explicitly
specify which image is to be executed.
Clearing the LOADED flag actually prevents users from doing clever things
such as loading an image, then loading a patch image, then executing the
first image. (image_exec() checks for IMAGE_LOADED, so this sequence of
operations will fail if the LOADED flag gets cleared.)
This reverts commit 14c080020f.
Loading an image may overwrite part or all of any previously-loaded
images, so we should clear the LOADED flag for all images prior to
attempting to load a new image.
We can just treat all non-kernel images as initrds, which matches our
behaviour for multiboot kernels. This allows us to eliminate initrd as
an image type, and treat the "initrd" command as just another synonym for
"imgfetch".
dhcppkt_store() is supposed to clear the setting if passed NULL for the
setting data. In the case of fixed-location fields (e.g. client IP
address), this requires setting the content of the field to all-zeros.
__from_data16 and __from_text16 now take a pointer to a
.data16/.text16 variable, and return the real-mode offset within the
appropriate segment. This matches the use case for every occurrence
of these macros, and prevents potential future bugs such as that fixed
in commit d51d80f. (The bug arose essentially because "&pointer" is
still syntactically valid.)
__from_data16 takes the value pointed to, rather than the pointer
itself. This was silently causing gPXE to return a dud buffer pointer
when the caller did not supply a buffer for PXENV_GET_CACHED_INFO.
Perform the same test for a matching DHCP_SERVER_IDENTIFIER on
ProxyDHCPACKs as we do for DHCPACKs. Otherwise, a retransmitted
DHCPACK can end up being treated as the ProxyDHCPACK.
I have a vague and unsettling memory that this test was deliberately
omitted, but I can't remember why, and can't find anything in the VC
logs.
ns8390.c can produce four different drivers (one PCI, three ISA.) The
ISA driver requires setting a few macros; do that by setting defines
in stub files instead of using src/Config.
Currently, all the ISA drivers are broken (they were not enabled by
default), so #if 0 them out.

When the 16-bit segment registers are accessed using 32-bit instructions
the high order bytes are undefined on older CPUs. We now explicitly
zero the high order bytes when snapshotting the CPU state. This ensures
that the GDB stub reports consistent values for the segment registers.
This commit implements GDB over UDP. Using UDP is more complex than
serial and has required some restructuring.
The GDB stub is now built using one or both of GDBSERIAL and GDBUDP
config.h options.
To enter the debugger, execute the gPXE shell command:
gdbstub <transport> [<options>...]
Where <transport> is "serial" or "udp". For "udp", the name of a
configured network device is required:
gdbstub udp net0
The GDB stub listens on UDP port 43770 by default.
Commit fd0aef9 introduced a typo that caused PMM detection to start at
paragraph 0xe00 rather than 0xe000. (Detection would still work, since it
would scan until it ran out of base memory, but it would end up scanning
an unnecessarily large portion of base memory.)
