[autoboot] Connect SAN disk during a filename boot, if applicable
For performing installations direct to a SAN target, it can be very
useful to hook a SAN disk and then proceed to perform a filename boot.
For example, the user may wish to hook the (empty) SAN installation
disk and then boot into the OS installer via TFTP. This provides an
alternative mechanism to using "keep-san" and relying on the BIOS to
fall through to boot from the installation media, which is unreliable
on many BIOSes.
When a root-path is specified in addition to a boot filename, attempt
to hook the root-path as a SAN disk before booting from the specified
filename. Since the root-path may be used for non-SAN purposes
(e.g. an NFS root mount point), ignore the root-path if it contains a
URI scheme that we do not support.

[prefix] Use 16-bit protected mode for access to high memory
Flat real mode works perfectly on real hardware, but seems to cause
problems for some hypervisors. Revert to using 16-bit protected mode
(and returning to real mode with 4GB limits, so as not to break PMM
BIOSes).
Allow the code specific to the .mrom format to continue to assume that
flat real mode works, since this format is specific to real hardware.

[nvo] Remove the non-volatile options fragment list

[dhcp] Use Ethernet-compatible chaddr, if possible
For IPoIB, we currently use the hardware address (i.e. the eight-byte
GUID) as the DHCP chaddr. This works, but some PXE servers (notably
Altiris RDP) refuse to respond if the chaddr field is anything other
than six bytes in length.
We already have the notion of an Ethernet-compatible link-layer
address, which is used in the iBFT (the design of which similarly
fails to account for non-Ethernet link layers). Use this as the first
preferred alternative to the actual link-layer address when
constructing the DHCP chaddr field.

Enhance the information collected by the function recorder to include
the call site and entry/exit counts. This allows fnrec.pl to produce
a call tree such as:
step (from core/getkey.c:46 = 0x17e90) {
ref_increment (from core/process.c:93 = 0x73ec) { }
net_step (from core/process.c:96 = 0x73f1) {
net_poll (from net/netdevice.c:741 = 0xbce6) {
netdev_poll (from net/netdevice.c:700 = 0xbc58) { }
netdev_rx_dequeue (from net/netdevice.c:709 = 0xbc65) { }
}
}
ref_decrement (from core/process.c:96 = 0x73f9) { }
}
Note that inlined functions are reported, confusingly, as extra calls
to the *containing* function. Minimise this confusion by adding the
attribute "no_instrument_function" to all functions declared as
inline. (Static functions that have been inlined autonomously by gcc
will still be problematic, but these are far fewer in number.)

[pxe] Avoid touching fields that may not exist in PXENV_UNDI_GET_NIC_TYPE
Earlier versions of the PXE specification do not have the SubVendor_ID
and SubDevice_ID fields, and some NBPs may not provide space for them.
Avoid overwriting the contents of these fields, just in case.
This is similar to the problem with the BufferLimit field in
PXENV_GET_CACHED_INFO.

[libflat] Test A20 gate without switching to flat real mode
Use the real-mode address ffff:0010 to access the linear address
0x100000, and so test whether or not the A20 gate is enabled without
requiring a switch into flat real mode (or some other addressing
mode).
This speeds up CPU mode transitions, and also avoids breaking the NBP
from IBM's Tivoli Provisioning Manager for Operating System
Deployment. This NBP makes some calls to iPXE in VM86 mode rather
than true real mode and does not correctly emulate our transition into
flat real mode.
Interestingly, Tivoli's VMM *does* allow us to switch into protected
mode (though it patches our GDT so that we execute in ring 1 rather
than ring 0). However, paging is still disabled and we have a 4GB
segment limit. Being in ring 1 does not, therefore, restrict us in
any meaningful way; this has been verified by deliberately writing
garbage over Tivoli's own GDT (at address 0x02201010) during a
nominally VM86-mode PXE API call. It's unclear precisely what
protection this VMM is supposed to be offering.

Some network cards automatically strip the VLAN header, providing the
VLAN tag via a side channel such as a completion queue entry. These
cards need to be able to report receive completions directly against
the relevant VLAN device.

[vlan] Use "-" instead of "." as separator in VLAN device names
VLAN device names have the form "netX.Y", e.g. "net0.5" for VLAN 5 on
net0. This use of "." conflicts with the use of "." as the
hierarchical separator in settings block names, with the result that
VLAN device settings cannot be accessed by name.
It would be trivial to treat the VLAN device settings as being a child
of the trunk device settings, but this would cause the VLAN device
settings to be applied to the trunk device: for example, setting
"net0.5/ip" would then apply the IP address to both net0.5 and net0.
Fix by changing the VLAN device name to use "-" instead of ".": the
VLAN device "net0.5" is now "net0-5".

[cmdline] Match user expectations for &&, ||, goto, and exit
The && and || operators should be left-associative, since that is how
they are treated in most other languages (including C and Unix
shell). For example, in the command:
dhcp net0 && goto dhcp_ok || echo No DHCP on net0
if the "dhcp net0" fails then the "echo" should be executed.
After an "exit" or a successful "goto", further commands on the same
line should never be executed. For example:
goto somewhere && echo This should never be printed
exit 0 && echo This should never be printed
exit 1 && echo This should never be printed
An "exit" should cause the current shell or script to terminate and
return the specified exit status to its caller. For example:
chain test.ipxe && echo Success || echo Failure
[in test.ipxe]
#!ipxe
exit 0
should echo "Success".
