[makefile] Suppress "No such file or directory" warnings at start of build
Use "-include" rather than "include" for the generated Makefile
fragments, in order to suppress the long list of warnings that
otherwise appears at the start of a clean build.

[iSCSI] Support Windows Server 2008 direct iSCSI installation
Add yet another ugly hack to iscsiboot.c, this time to allow the user to
inhibit the shutdown/removal of the iSCSI INT13 device (and the network
devices, since they are required for the iSCSI device to function).
On the plus side, the fact that shutdown() now takes flags to
differentiate between shutdown-for-exit and shutdown-for-boot means that
another ugly hack (to allow returning via the PXE stack on BIOSes that
have broken INT 18 calls) will be easier.
I feel dirty.
[phantom] Guard against partially-written status descriptors
Conjecture: The hardware issues 64-bit DMA writes of status descriptors,
which some PCI bridges seem to split into two 32-bit writes in reverse
order (i.e. dword 1 first). This means that we sometimes observe a
partial status descriptor. Add an explicit check to ensure that the
descriptor is complete before processing it.
Also ensure that the RDS consumer counter is incremented only when we
know that we have actually consumed an RX descriptor.
[int13] Pairwise swap drive numbers, instead of shifting all drive numbers
Shifting all INT13 drive numbers causes problems on systems that use a
sparse drive number space (e.g. qemu BIOS, which uses 0xe0 for the CD-ROM
drive).
The strategy now is:
Each drive is assigned a "natural" drive number, being the next
available drive number in the system (based on the BIOS drive count).
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.
[image] Fail "imgexec"/"boot" if the image to execute is ambiguous
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.
[image] Clear LOADED flag on all other images when loading a new image
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".
[dhcp] Allow DHCP non-option settings to be cleared
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.
[i386] Change semantics of __from_data16 and __from_text16
__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.)
[pxe] Fix a typo in PXENV_GET_CACHED_INFO that broke Altiris
__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.)

[a20] Send a null command to the KBC after changing A20
Send a null command, specifically "pulse outputs" with no outputs
selected, to the KBC after changing A20. This was apparently done by DOS,
presumably as a synchronization hack, and the authors of the UHCI spec
thought it was inherent. Therefore, there are systems out there (e.g. HP
DL360 G5) which will stop responsing to "legacy USB" unless they see the
null command, 0xFF, written to port 0x64 at the end of the A20 toggling
sequence.

[legacy] Align legacy drivers' __shared data to the maximum possible
Some drivers that still use the legacy-driver wrapper (tg3 in particular)
apparently do not specify their alignment constraints properly. This
hack forces any __shared data to be maximally aligned.
Note that this provides only 16-byte alignment; it is not possible to
request alignment to any greater than 16 bytes using
__attribute__((aligned)), since the relocation code will preserve only 16
byte alignment (and operation under -DKEEP_IT_REAL cannot preserve more
that 16 byte alignment).

[prefix] When we have to hook INT 19, chain to original handler if possible
When the BIOS doesn't support BBS, hooking INT 19 is the only way to add
ourselves as a boot device. If we have to do this, we should at least
try to chain to the original INT 19 vector if our boot fails.

[bzimage] Support kernel command lines of greater than 256 characters
2.6.22+ kernels have an extra field in the bzimage_header structure to
indicate the maximum permitted command-line length. Use this if it is
available.
