As of commit b1caa48 ("[crypto] Support SHA-{224,384,512} in X.509
certificates"), the list of supported cryptographic algorithms is
controlled by config/crypto.h.

At some point in the past few years, binutils became more aggressive
at removing unused symbols. To function as a symbol requirement, a
relocation record must now be in a section marked with @progbits and
must not be in a section which gets discarded during the link (either
via --gc-sections or via /DISCARD/).
Update REQUIRE_SYMBOL() to generate relocation records meeting these
criteria. To minimise the impact upon the final binary size, we use
existing symbols (specified via the REQUIRING_SYMBOL() macro) as the
relocation targets where possible. We use R_386_NONE or R_X86_64_NONE
relocation types to prevent any actual unwanted relocation taking
place. Where no suitable symbol exists for REQUIRING_SYMBOL() (such
as in config.c), the macro PROVIDE_REQUIRING_SYMBOL() can be used to
generate a one-byte-long symbol to act as the relocation target.
If there are versions of binutils for which this approach fails, then
the fallback will probably involve killing off REQUEST_SYMBOL(),
redefining REQUIRE_SYMBOL() to use the current definition of
REQUEST_SYMBOL(), and postprocessing the linked ELF file with
something along the lines of "nm -u | wc -l" to check that there are
no undefined symbols remaining.

[ping] Allow termination after a specified number of packets
Add the "-c <count>" option to the "ping" command, allowing for
automatic termination after a specified number of packets.
When a number of packets is specified:
- if a serious error (i.e. length mismatch or content mismatch)
occurs, then the ping will be immediately terminated with the relevant
status code;
- if at least one response is received successfully, and all errors
are non-serious (i.e. timeouts or out-of-sequence responses), then
the ping will be terminated after the final response (or timeout)
with a success status;
- if no responses are received successfully, then the ping will be
terminated after the final timeout with ETIMEDOUT.
If no number of packets is specified, then the ping will continue
until manually interrupted.

[image] Add "--timeout" parameter to image downloading commands
iPXE will detect timeout failures in several situations: network
link-up, DHCP, TCP connection attempts, unacknowledged TCP data, etc.
This does not cover all possible circumstances. For example, if a
connection to a web server is successfully established and the web
server acknowledges the HTTP request but never sends any data in
response, then no timeout will be triggered. There is no timeout
defined within the HTTP specifications, and the underlying TCP
connection will not generate a timeout since it has no way to know
that the HTTP layer is expecting to receive data from the server.
Add a "--timeout" parameter to "imgfetch", "chain", etc. If no
progress is made (i.e. no data is downloaded) within the timeout
period, then the download will be aborted.

[cmdline] Rename "console" command's --bpp option to --depth
Rename the "--bpp" option to "--depth", to free up the single-letter
option "-b" for "--bottom" in preparation for adding margin support.
This does not break backwards compatibility with documented features,
since the "console" command has not yet been documented.

[settings] Explicitly separate the concept of a completed fetched setting
The fetch_setting() family of functions may currently modify the
definition of the specified setting (e.g. to add missing type
information). Clean up this interface by requiring callers to provide
an explicit buffer to contain the completed definition of the fetched
setting, if required.

Parsing a timeout value (specified in milliseconds) into an internal
timeout value measured in timer ticks is a common operation. Provide
a parse_timeout() value to carry out this conversion automatically.

[settings] Eliminate calls to {fetch,store}f_named_setting() in NVO commands
A deliberate side effect of this commit is that the "read" command
will now preserve the type of the setting, if the setting name
contains no type information. For example:
iPXE> set foo:ipv4 192.168.0.1
iPXE> read foo
192.168.0.100
iPXE> show foo
foo:ipv4 = 192.168.0.100
rather than the arguably unexpected behaviour of resetting the type to
"string".

[ifmgmt] Avoid relying on global variable within ifcommon_exec()
The getopt API defines optind as a global variable. When used by the
"autoboot" command, the payload function passed to ifcommon_exec() may
result in a new iPXE script being executed; the commands therein would
then overwrite the value of optind. On returning, ifcommon_exec()
would continue processing the list of interfaces from an undefined
point.
Fix by using a local variable to hold the index within the list of
interfaces.

[settings] Use a generic setting's own type as its default type
When fetching a named setting using a name that does not explicitly
specify a type, default to using the type stored when the setting was
created, rather than always defaulting to "string". This allows the
behaviour of user-defined settings to match the behaviour of
predefined settings (which have a sensible default type).
For example:
set server:ipv4 192.168.0.1
echo ${server}
will now print "192.168.0.1", rather than trying to print out the raw
IPv4 address bytes as a string.
The downside of this change is that existing tricks for printing
special characters within scripts may require (backwards-compatible)
modification. For example, the "clear screen" sequence:
set esc:hex 1b
set cls ${esc}[2J
echo ${cls}
will now have to become
set esc:hex 1b
set cls ${esc:string}[2J # Must now explicitly specify ":string"
echo ${cls}

Expose image tail-recursion to iPXE scripts via the "--replace"
option. This functions similarly to exec() under Unix: the
currently-executing script is replaced with the new image (as opposed
to running the new image as a subroutine).
