[xen] Provide 18 4kB receive buffers to work around xen-netback bug
The Xen network backend (xen-netback) suffered from a regression
between upstream Linux kernels 3.18 and 4.2 inclusive, which would
cause packet reception to fail unless at least 18 receive buffers were
available. This bug was fixed in kernel commit 1d5d485 ("xen-netback:
require fewer guest Rx slots when not using GSO").
Work around this bug in affected versions of xen-netback by providing
the requisite 18 receive buffers.

[hyperv] Cope with Windows Server 2016 enlightenments
An "enlightened" external bootloader (such as Windows Server 2016's
winload.exe) may take ownership of the Hyper-V connection before all
INT 13 operations have been completed. When this happens, all VMBus
devices are implicitly closed and we are left with a non-functional
network connection.
Detect when our Hyper-V connection has been lost (by checking the
SynIC message page MSR). Reclaim ownership of the Hyper-V connection
and reestablish any VMBus devices, without disrupting any existing
iPXE state (such as IPv4 settings attached to the network device).
Windows Server 2016 will not cleanly take ownership of an active
Hyper-V connection. Experimentation shows that we can quiesce by
resetting only the SynIC message page MSR; this results in a
successful SAN boot (on a Windows 2012 R2 physical host). Choose to
quiesce by resetting (almost) all MSRs, in the hope that this will be
more robust against corner cases such as a stray synthetic interrupt
occurring during the handover.

On most Intel NICs, Auto-Speed Detection Enable (ASDE) can be used to
automatically detect the correct link speed by sampling the link using
the internal PHY. This feature is automatically inhibited when not
appropriate for the physical link (e.g. when using internal SerDes
mode on the 8254x).
On the i350 datasheet ASDE is a reserved bit, but the relevant
auto-speed detection hardware appears still to be present. However,
enabling ASDE on the i350 1000BASE-KX backplane NIC seems to cause an
immediate link failure. It is possible that the auto-speed detection
hardware is still present, is not connected to a physical link, and is
not inhibited from being applied in this mode.
Work around this problem by adding an INTEL_NO_ASDE flag bit
(analogous to INTEL_NO_PHY_RST), and applying this for the i350
backplane NIC.

[thunderx] Use ThunderxConfigProtocol to obtain board configuration
Following changes were introduced:
- added GetBgxProp and GetLmacProp methods to ThunderxConfigProtocol
- replaced direct BOARD_CFG access with usage of introduced methods
- removed redundant BOARD_CFG
- changed GUID of ThunderxConfigProtocol, as this is not compatible
with previous version
- changed UINTN* to UINT64* buffer type to fix issue on 32-bit
platforms with MAC address
This change allows us to avoid alignment of BOARD_CFG definitions
every time it changes in UEFI.

The value of ( ( x & 0x0c00 ) | 0x0c00 ) is always 0x0c00 regardless
of the value of x, and so the read_csr() is redundant. (There are no
read side effects for this register, according to the datasheet.)
This line of code originated in Linux kernel 2.3.19pre1 as
a->write_csr(ioaddr, 80, a->read_csr(ioaddr, 80) | 0x0c00);
and was modified in kernel 2.3.41pre4 to read
a->write_csr(ioaddr, 80, (a->read_csr(ioaddr, 80) & 0x0C00) | 0x0c00);
In the absence of commit messages, the intention of the code is
unclear. However, the logic resulting in a fixed value of 0x0c00 has
remained unaltered for over 17 years, and can probably be assumed to
have the correct overall result.

[infiniband] Return status code from ib_create_cq() and ib_create_qp()
Any underlying errors arising during ib_create_cq() or ib_create_qp()
are lost since the functions simply return NULL on error. This makes
debugging harder, since a debug-enabled build is required to discover
the root cause of the error.
Fix by returning a status code from these functions, thereby allowing

[efi] Skip cable detection at initialisation where possible
We currently request cable detection in PXE_OPCODE_INITIALIZE to work
around buggy Emulex drivers (see commit c0b61ba ("[efi] Work around
bugs in Emulex NII driver")).
This causes problems with some other NII drivers (e.g. Mellanox),
which may time out if the underlying link is intrinsically slow to
come up.
Attempt to work around both problems simultaneously by requesting
cable detection only if the underlying NII driver does not support
link status reporting via PXE_OPCODE_GET_STATUS. (This is based on a
potentially incorrect assumption that the buggy Emulex drivers do not
claim to report link status via PXE_OPCODE_GET_STATUS.)

Allow the active timer (providing udelay() and currticks()) to be
selected at runtime based on probing during the INIT_EARLY stage of
initialisation.
TICKS_PER_SEC is now a fixed compile-time constant for all builds, and
is independent of the underlying clock tick rate. We choose the value
1024 to allow multiplications and divisions on seconds to be converted
to bit shifts.
TICKS_PER_MS is defined as 1, allowing multiplications and divisions
on milliseconds to be omitted entirely. The 2% inaccuracy in this
definition is negligible when using the standard BIOS timer (running
at around 18.2Hz).
TIMER_RDTSC now checks for a constant TSC before claiming to be a
usable timer. (This timer can be tested in KVM via the command-line
option "-cpu host,+invtsc".)

[virtio] Use separate RX and TX empty header buffers
Some host implementations (notably Google Compute Platform) are known
to unconditionally write back VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_DATA_VALID to
header->flags for received packets, regardless of the features
negotiated by the driver. This breaks the transmit datapath by
effectively setting an illegal flag for all subsequent transmitted
packets.
Work around this problem by using separate empty header buffers for
the receive and transmit queues.

Virtio 0.9 implementation was limited to the maximum virtqueue size of
MAX_QUEUE_NUM and the virtio-net driver would fail to initialize on hosts
exceeding this limit.
This commit lifts the restriction by allocating the queue memory based on
the actual queue size instead of using a fixed maximum. Note that virtio
1.0 still uses the MAX_QUEUE_NUM constant to cap the size (unfortunately
this functionality is not available in virtio 0.9).

[intel] Strip spurious VLAN tags received by virtual function NICs
The physical function may be configured to transparently insert a VLAN
tag into all transmitted packets. Unfortunately, it does not
equivalently strip this same VLAN tag from all received packets. This
behaviour may be observed in some Amazon EC2 instances with Enhanced
Networking enabled: transmissions work as expected but all packets
received by iPXE appear to have a spurious VLAN tag.
We can configure the receive queue to strip VLAN tags via the
RXDCTL.VME bit. We need to find out from the PF driver whether or not
we should do so.
There exists a "get queue configuration" mailbox message which
contains a field labelled IXGBE_VF_TRANS_VLAN in the Linux driver.
A comment in the Linux PF driver describes this field as "notify VF of
need for VLAN tag stripping, and correct queue". It will be filled
with a non-zero value if the PF is enforcing the use of a single VLAN
tag. It will also be filled with a non-zero value if the PF is using
multiple traffic classes.
The Linux VF driver seems to treat this field as being simply the
number of traffic classes, and gives it no VLAN-related
interpretation. The Linux VF driver instead handles the VLAN tag
stripping by simply assuming that any unrecognised VLAN tag ought to
be silently dropped.
We choose to strip and ignore the VLAN tag if the IXGBE_VF_TRANS_VLAN
field has a non-zero value.

[efi] Guard against GetStatus() failing to return a NULL TX buffer
The UEFI specification requires the EFI_SIMPLE_NETWORK_PROTOCOL
GetStatus() method to set TxBuf to NULL if there are no transmit
buffers to recycle.
Some implementations (observed with Lan9118Dxe in EDK2) fill in TxBuf
only when there is a transmit buffer to recycle, which leads to large
numbers of "spurious TX completion" errors.
Work around this problem by initialising TxBuf to NULL before calling
the GetStatus() method.
