[iscsi] Send any padding inline with the data segment
Some iSCSI targets respond to a PDU before receiving the padding
bytes. If the target responds quickly enough, this can cause iPXE to
start processing a new TX PDU before the padding bytes have been sent,
which results in a protocol violation.
Fix by always transmitting the padding bytes along with the data
segment.

[iscsi] Fail immediately if target rejects any of our parameters
Some iSCSI targets (observed with stgt) can be configured to reject
connections that do not use header or data digests, and will respond
with "HeaderDigest=Reject" and/or "DataDigest=Reject", while still
allowing the connection to proceed to the full feature phase.
According to a strict reading of RFC3720, we are perfectly safe to
ignore these "Reject" messages: upon such a rejection "the negotiated
key is left at its current value (or default if no value was set)".
Since the default value for both HeaderDigest and DataDigest is
"None", then the only viable conclusion to be drawn is that the value
resulting from "Reject" is still "None".
Unfortunately, stgt doesn't seem to agree with this interpretation of
events, causing us to eventually report an unhelpful "connection timed
out" message to the user when we don't get any response to our first
PDU in full feature phase.
Fix by detecting any rejected parameters and immediately reporting an
error, which at least gives the user some insight as to what the real
problem may be.

The iSCSI TX process can now be woken up by the TCP socket via
xfer_window_changed(), so it is no longer valid to assume that
iscsi_tx_step() can be called in state ISCSI_TX_IDLE only immediately
after completing a transmission.
Fix by calling iscsi_tx_done() only upon a transition into state
ISCSI_TX_IDLE.

[process] Pass containing object pointer to process step() methods
Give the step() method a pointer to the containing object, rather than
a pointer to the process. This is consistent with the operation of
interface methods, and allows a single function to serve as both an
interface method and a process step() method.

The default initiator IQN is "iqn.2000-09.org.etherboot:UNKNOWN".
This is problematic for two reasons:
a) the etherboot.org domain (and hence the associated IQN namespace)
is not under the control of the iPXE project, and
b) some targets (correctly) refuse to allow concurrent connections
from different initiators using the same initiator IQN.
Solve both problems by changing the default initiator IQN to be
iqn.2010-04.org.ipxe:<hostname> if a hostname is set, or
iqn.2010-04.org.ipxe:<uuid> if no hostname is set.
Explicit initiator IQNs set via DHCP option 203 are not affected by
this change.
Unfortunately, this change is likely to break some existing
configurations, where ACL rules have been put in place referring to
the old default initiator IQN. Users may need to update ACLs, or
force the use of the old IQN using an iPXE script line such as
set initiator-iqn iqn.2000-09.org.etherboot:UNKNOWN
or a dhcpd.conf option such as
option iscsi-initiator-iqn "iqn.2000-09.org.etherboot:UNKNOWN"

After a more accurate reading of RFC 3720, it becomes clear how NOPs
are supposed to work. The current implementation (which just ignores
NOP-Ins) is sufficient to cope with NOP-Ins sent to update CmdSN, but
will need to be extended before it can cope with NOP-Ins sent as iSCSI
keepalives.

Some iSCSI targets (observed with a Synology DS207+ NAS) send
unsolicited NOP-Ins to the initiator. RFC 3720 is remarkably unclear
and possibly self-contradictory on how NOPs are supposed to work, but
it seems as though we can legitimately just ignore any unsolicited
NOP-In PDU.

[iscsi] Ensure ISID is consistent within an iSCSI session
Commit 5f4ab0d ("[iscsi] Randomise a portion of the ISID to force new
session instantiation") introduced a regression by randomising the
ISID on each call to iscsi_start_login(), which may be called more
than once per connection, rather than on each call to
iscsi_open_connection(), which is guaranteed to be called only once
per connection. This is incorrect behaviour that causes our
connection to be rejected by some iSCSI targets (observed with a
COMSTAR target under OpenSolaris).
Fix by generating the ISID in iscsi_open_connection(), and storing the
randomised ISID as part of the session state.

[iscsi] Randomise a portion of the ISID to force new session instantiation
When a connection to an iSCSI target is broken without gracefully
closing the TCP socket, a subsequent connection attempt may fail
because the target believes that we are attempting session
reinstatement (see RFC3720 section 5.3.1). This has been observed
using the Microsoft iSCSI target.
Section 9.1.1 of RFC3720 states that initiators should use a stable
ISID, however section 5.3.1 shows that the only way to explicitly
request that a new session be created is to use a new ISID.
Fix by randomising the "qualifier" portion of the ISID.

[block] Replace gPXE block-device API with an iPXE asynchronous interface
The block device interface used in gPXE predates the invention of even
the old gPXE data-transfer interface, let alone the current iPXE
generic asynchronous interface mechanism. Bring this old code up to
date, with the following benefits:
o Block device commands can be cancelled by the requestor. The INT 13
layer uses this to provide a global timeout on all INT 13 calls,
with the result that an unexpected passive failure mode (such as
an iSCSI target ACKing the request but never sending a response)
will lead to a timeout that gets reported back to the INT 13 user,
rather than simply freezing the system.
o INT 13,00 (reset drive) is now able to reset the underlying block
device. INT 13 users, such as DOS, that use INT 13,00 as a method
for error recovery now have a chance of recovering.
o All block device commands are tagged, with a numerical tag that
will show up in debugging output and in packet captures; this will
allow easier interpretation of bug reports that include both
sources of information.
o The extremely ugly hacks used to generate the boot firmware tables
have been eradicated and replaced with a generic acpi_describe()
method (exploiting the ability of iPXE interfaces to pass through
methods to an underlying interface). The ACPI tables are now
built in a shared data block within .bss16, rather than each
requiring dedicated space in .data16.
o The architecture-independent concept of a SAN device has been
exposed to the iPXE core through the sanboot API, which provides
calls to hook, unhook, boot, and describe SAN devices. This
allows for much more flexible usage patterns (such as hooking an
empty SAN device and then running an OS installer via TFTP).

[interface] Convert all data-xfer interfaces to generic interfaces
Remove data-xfer as an interface type, and replace data-xfer
interfaces with generic interfaces supporting the data-xfer methods.
Filter interfaces (as used by the TLS layer) are handled using the
generic pass-through interface capability. A side-effect of this is
that deliver_raw() no longer exists as a data-xfer method. (In
practice this doesn't lose any efficiency, since there are no
instances within the current codebase where xfer_deliver_raw() is used
to pass data to an interface supporting the deliver_raw() method.)

[iscsi] Include credentials in iBFT only if used during iSCSI login
Avoid passing credentials in the iBFT that were available but not
required for login. This works around a problem in the Microsoft
iSCSI initiator, which will refuse to initiate sessions if the CHAP
password is fewer than 12 characters, even if the target ends up not
asking for CHAP authentication.
[i386] Change [u]int32_t to [unsigned] int, rather than [unsigned] long
This brings us in to line with Linux definitions, and also simplifies
adding x86_64 support since both platforms have 2-byte shorts, 4-byte
ints and 8-byte long longs.
[iscsi] Change default initiator name prefix to "iqn.2000-01.org.etherboot:"
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.
[iSCSI] Produce meaningful errors on login failure
Return the most appropriate of EACCES, EPERM, ENODEV, ENOTSUP, EIO or
EINVAL depending on the exact error returned by the target, rather than
just always returning EPERM.
Also, ensure that error strings exist for these errors.
[iSCSI] Offer CHAP authentication only if we have a username and password
Some EMC targets will fail if we advertise that we can authenticate with
CHAP, but the target is configured to allow unauthenticated access to that
target. We advertise AuthMethod=CHAP,None; the target should (I think)
select AuthMethod=None for unprotected targets. IETD does this, but an
EMC Celerra NS83 doesn't.
Fix by offering only AuthMethod=None if the user hasn't supplied a
username and password; this means that we won't be offering CHAP
authentication unless the user is expecting to use it (in which case the
target is presumably configured appropriately).
Many thanks to Alessandro Iurlano <alessandro.iurlano@gmail.com> for
reporting and helping to diagnose this problem.
[Settings] Remove assumption that all settings have DHCP tag values
Allow for settings to be described by something other than a DHCP option
tag if desirable. Currently used only for the MAC address setting.
Separate out fake DHCP packet creation code from dhcp.c to fakedhcp.c.
Remove notion of settings from dhcppkt.c.
Rationalise dhcp.c to use settings API only for final registration of the
DHCP options, rather than using {store,fetch}_setting throughout.
Allow port numbers in iSCSI redirection.
Wait for SCSI status, not just the final data-in (which may be followed
by an explicit SCSI Response PDU if the S bit is not set).
Work around a bug in the OpenSolaris iSCSI target.
We didn't specify values for MaxRecvDataSegmentLength and
MaxBurstLength (to save space, since we were happy with the
RFC-defined default values of 8kB and 256kB respectively). However,
the OpenSolaris target (incorrectly) assumes default values of zero
for these parameters.
The upshot was that the OpenSolaris target would get stuck in an
endless loop trying to send us the first 512-byte sector, zero bytes
at a time, and would eventually run out of memory and core-dump.
Fixed by explicitly specifying the default values for these two
parameters.
