[efi] Do not copy garbage bytes into SNP device path MAC address
The SNP device path includes the network device's MAC address within
the MAC_ADDR_DEVICE_PATH.MacAddress field. We check that the
link-layer address will fit within this field, and then perform the
copy using the length of the destination buffer.
At 32 bytes, the MacAddress field is actually larger than the current
maximum iPXE link-layer address. The copy therefore overflows the
source buffer, resulting in trailing garbage bytes being appended to
the device path's MacAddress. This is invisible in debug messages,
since the DevicePathToText protocol will render only the length
implied by the interface type.
Fix by copying only the actual length of the link-layer address (which
we have already verified will not overflow the destination buffer).

[efi] Use a timer event to generate the currticks() timer
We currently use the EFI_CPU_ARCH_PROTOCOL's GetTimerValue() method to
generate the currticks() timer, calibrated against a 1ms delay from
the boot services Stall() method.
This does not work on ARM platforms, where GetTimerValue() is an empty
stub which just returns EFI_UNSUPPORTED.
Fix by instead creating a periodic timer event, and using this event
to increment a current tick counter.

The EFI_HII_CONFIG_ACCESS_PROTOCOL's ExtractConfig() method is passed
a request string which includes the parameters being queried plus an
apparently meaningless blob of information (the ConfigHdr), and is
expected to include this same meaningless blob of information in the
results string.
Neither the specification nor the existing EDK2 code (including the
nominal reference implementation in the DriverSampleDxe driver)
provide any reason for the existence of this meaningless blob of
information. It appears to be consumed in its entirety by the
EFI_HII_CONFIG_ROUTING_PROTOCOL, and to contain zero bits of
information by the time it reaches an EFI_HII_CONFIG_ACCESS_PROTOCOL
instance. It would potentially allow for multiple configuration data
sets to be handled by a single EFI_HII_CONFIG_ACCESS_PROTOCOL
instance, in a style alien to the rest of the UEFI specification
(which implicitly assumes that the instance pointer is always
sufficient to uniquely identify the instance).
iPXE currently handles this by simply copying the ConfigHdr from the
request string to the results string, and otherwise ignoring it. This
approach is also used by some code in EDK2, such as OVMF's PlatformDxe
driver.
As of EDK2 commit 8a45f80 ("MdeModulePkg: Make HII configuration
settings available to OS runtime"), this causes an assertion failure
inside EDK2. The failure arises when iPXE is handled a NULL request
string, and responds (as per the specification) with a results string
including all settings. Since there is no meaningless blob to copy
from the request string, there is no corresponding meaningless blob in
the results string. This now causes an assertion failure in
HiiDatabaseDxe's HiiConfigRoutingExportConfig().
The same failure does not affect the OVMF PlatformDxe driver, which
simply passes the request string to the HII BlockToConfig() utility
function. The BlockToConfig() function returns EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER
when passed a null request string, and PlatformDxe propagates this
error directly to the caller.
Fix by matching the behaviour of OVMF's PlatformDxe driver: explicitly
return EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER if the request string is NULL or empty.
This violates the specification (insofar as it is feasible to
determine what the specification actually requires), but causes
correct behaviour with the EDK2 codebase.

[efi] Provide access to files stored on EFI filesystems
Provide access to local files via the "file://" URI scheme. There are
three syntaxes:
- An opaque URI with a relative path (e.g. "file:script.ipxe").
This will be interpreted as a path relative to the iPXE binary.
- A hierarchical URI with a non-network absolute path
(e.g. "file:/boot/script.ipxe"). This will be interpreted as a
path relative to the root of the filesystem from which the iPXE
binary was loaded.
- A hierarchical URI with a network path in which the authority is a
volume label (e.g. "file://bootdisk/script.ipxe"). This will be
interpreted as a path relative to the root of the filesystem with
the specified volume label.
Note that the potentially desirable shell mappings (e.g. "fs0:" and
"blk0:") are concepts internal to the UEFI shell binary, and do not
seem to be exposed in any way to external executables. The old
EFI_SHELL_PROTOCOL (which did provide access to these mappings) is no
longer installed by current versions of the UEFI shell.

[efi] Expose an UNDI interface alongside the existing SNP interface
UEFI UNDI is a hideously ugly lump of poorly specified garbage bolted
on as an appendix of the UEFI specification. My personal favourite
line from the UNDI 'specification' is section E.2.2, which states
"Basically, the rule is: Do it right, or don't do it at all". The
author appears to believe that such exhortations are a viable
substitute for documenting what it is that the wretched reader is
supposed to, in fact, do.
(Second favourite is the section listing the pros and cons of various
driver types. This fails to identify a single con for the mythical
"Hardware UNDI", a design so insanely intrinsically slow that it
appears to have been the inspiration for the EFI_USB_IO_PROTOCOL.)
UNDI is functionally isomorphic to the substantially less preposterous
EFI_SIMPLE_NETWORK_PROTOCOL. Provide an UNDI interface (as a thin
wrapper around the existing SNP interface) to allow for use by
third-party software that has made poor life choices.

[efi] Avoid infinite loops when asked to stop non-existent devices
Calling EDK2's OpenProtocol() with attributes BY_DRIVER|EXCLUSIVE will
call DisconnectController() in a loop to attempt to dislodge any
existing openers with attributes BY_DRIVER. The loop will continue
indefinitely until either no such openers remain, or until
DisconnectController() returns an error.
If our driver binding protocol's Stop() method is ever called to
disconnect a device that we are not in fact driving, then return
EFI_DEVICE_ERROR rather than EFI_SUCCESS, in order to break this
potentially infinite loop.

Many UEFI NBPs expect to find an EFI_PXE_BASE_CODE_PROTOCOL installed
in addition to the EFI_SIMPLE_NETWORK_PROTOCOL. Most NBPs use the
EFI_PXE_BASE_CODE_PROTOCOL only to retrieve the cached DHCP packets.
This implementation has been tested with grub.efi, shim.efi,
syslinux.efi, and wdsmgfw.efi. Some methods (such as Discover() and
Arp()) are not used by any known NBP and so have not (yet) been
implemented.
Usage notes for the tested bootstraps are:
- grub.efi uses EFI_PXE_BASE_CODE_PROTOCOL only to retrieve the
cached DHCP packet, and uses no other methods.
- shim.efi uses EFI_PXE_BASE_CODE_PROTOCOL to retrieve the cached
DHCP packet and to retrieve the next NBP via the Mtftp() method.
If shim.efi was downloaded via HTTP (or other non-TFTP protocol)
then shim.efi will blindly call Mtftp() with an HTTP URI as the
filename: this allows the next NBP (e.g. grubx64.efi) to also be
transparently retrieved by HTTP.
shim.efi can also use the EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM_PROTOCOL to
retrieve files previously loaded by "imgfetch" or similar commands
in iPXE. The current implementation of shim.efi will use the
EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM_PROTOCOL only if it does not find an
EFI_PXE_BASE_CODE_PROTOCOL; this patch therefore prevents this
usage of our EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM_PROTOCOL. This logic could be
trivially reversed in shim.efi if needed.
- syslinux.efi uses EFI_PXE_BASE_CODE_PROTOCOL only to retrieve the
cached DHCP packet. Versions 6.03 and earlier have a bug which
may cause syslinux.efi to attach to the wrong NIC if there are
multiple NICs in the system (or if the UEFI firmware supports
IPv6).
- wdsmgfw.efi (ab)uses EFI_PXE_BASE_CODE_PROTOCOL to retrieve the
cached DHCP packets, and to send and retrieve UDP packets via the
UdpWrite() and UdpRead() methods. (This was presumably done in
order to minimise the amount of benefit obtainable by switching to
UEFI, by replicating all of the design mistakes present in the
original PXE specification.)
The EFI_DOWNGRADE_UX configuration option remains available for now,
until this implementation has received more widespread testing.

[efi] Do not return EFI_NOT_READY from our ReceiveFilters() method
Our SNP ReceiveFilters() method is a no-op, since we always (if
possible) use promiscuous mode for all network cards. The method
currently returns EFI_NOT_READY if the SNP interfaces are claimed for
use by iPXE, as with all other SNP methods.
The WDS bootstrap wdsmgfw.efi attempts to use both the PXE Base Code
protocol and the Simple Network Protocol simultaneously. This is
fundamentally broken, since use of the PXE Base Code protocol requires
us to disable the use of SNP (by claiming the interfaces for use by
iPXE), otherwise MnpDxe swallows all of the received packets before
our PXE Base Code's UdpRead() method is able to return them.
The root cause of this problem is that, as with BIOS PXE, the network
booting portions of the UEFI specification are less of a specification
and more of an application note sketchily describing how the original
hacked-together Intel implementation works. No sane design would ever
have included the UdpWrite() and UdpRead() methods.
Work around these fundamental conceptual flaws by unconditionally
returning success from efi_snp_receive_filters().

iPXE does not currently provide EFI_PXE_BASE_CODE_PROTOCOL: this
causes failures when chainloading bootloaders such as shim.efi which
assume that this protocol will be present.
Provide the ability to work around these problems via the build
configuration option EFI_DOWNGRADE_UX. If this option is enabled,
then we will not install our usual EFI_LOAD_FILE_PROTOCOL
implementation, thereby allowing the platform firmware to install its
own EFI_PXE_BASE_CODE_PROTOCOL implementation on top of our
EFI_SIMPLE_NETWORK_PROTOCOL handle.
A somewhat major side-effect of this workaround is that almost all
iPXE features will be disabled.
This configuration option will be removed in future when support for
EFI_PXE_BASE_CODE_PROTOCOL is added.

[xen] Wait for and clear XenStore event before receiving data
Older, out-of-tree Xen kernel modules (such as those provided with

[hyperv] Require support for VMBus version 3.0 or newer
We require the ability to disconnect from and reconnect to VMBus; if
we don't have this then there is no (viable) way for a loaded
operating system to continue to use any VMBus devices. (There is also
a small but non-zero risk that the host will continue to write to our
interrupt and monitor pages, since the VMBUS_UNLOAD message in earlier
versions is essentially a no-op.)
This requires us to ensure that the host supports protocol version 3.0
(VMBUS_VERSION_WIN8_1). However, we can't actually _use_ protocol
version 3.0, since doing so causes an iSCSI-booted Windows Server 2012
R2 VM to crash due to a NULL pointer dereference in vmbus.sys.
To work around this problem, we first ensure that we can connect using
protocol v3.0, then disconnect and reconnect using the oldest known
protocol.
This deliberately prevents the use of the iPXE native Hyper-V drivers
on older versions of Hyper-V, where we could use our drivers but in so
doing would break the loaded operating system.
