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.

[zbin] Fix check for existence of most recent output byte
The code in lzma_literal() checks to see if we are at the start of the
compressed input data in order to determine whether or not a most
recent output byte exists. This check is incorrect, since
initialisation of the decompressor will always consume the first five
bytes of the compressed input data.
Fix by instead checking whether or not we are at the start of the
output data stream. This is, in any case, a more logical check.
This issue was masked during development and testing since virtual
machines tend to zero the initial contents of RAM; the spuriously-read
"most recent output byte" is therefore likely to already be a zero
when running in a virtual machine.

LZMA provides significantly better compression (by ~15%) than the
current NRV2B algorithm.
We use a raw LZMA stream (aka LZMA1) to avoid the need for code to
parse the LZMA2 block headers. We use parameters {lc=2,lp=0,pb=0} to
reduce the stack space required by the decompressor to acceptable
levels (around 8kB). Using lc=3 or pb=2 would give marginally better
compression, but at the cost of substantially increasing the required
stack space.
The build process now requires the liblzma headers to be present on
the build system, since we do not include a copy of an LZMA compressor
within the iPXE source tree. The decompressor is written from scratch
(based on XZ Embedded) and is entirely self-contained within the
iPXE source.
The branch-call-jump (BCJ) filter used to improve the compressibility
is specific to iPXE. We choose not to use liblzma's built-in BCJ
filter since the algorithm is complex and undocumented. Our BCJ
filter achieves approximately the same results (on typical iPXE
binaries) with a substantially simpler algorithm.

[prefix] Use .bss16 as temporary stack space for calls to install_block

start making calls into code which might access variables in .bss16),
and allow the decompressor to define a global symbol to force a
minimum value on the size of .bss16.

[build] Apply the "-fno-PIE -nopie" workaround only to i386 builds
Hardened versions of gcc default to building position-independent

gcc command line.
On x86_64, we choose to build position-independent code (in order to

relocations required for UEFI binaries). The workaround therefore
breaks the build process for x86_64 binaries on such platforms.
Fix by moving the workaround to the i386-specific portion of the

The build process has for a long time assumed that every ROM is a PCI
ROM, and will always include the PCI header and PCI-related
functionality (such as checking the PCI BIOS version, including the
PCI bus:dev.fn address within the ROM product name string, etc.).
While real ISA cards are no longer in use, some virtualisation
environments (notably VirtualBox) have support only for ISA ROMs.
This can cause problems: in particular, VirtualBox will call our
initialisation entry point with random garbage in %ax, which we then
treat as the PCI bus:dev.fn address of the autoboot device: this
generally prevents the default boot sequence from using any network
devices.
Create .isarom and .pcirom prefixes which can be used to explicitly
specify the type of ROM to be created. (Note that the .mrom prefix
always implies a PCI ROM, since the .mrom mechanism relies on
reconfiguring PCI BARs.)
Make .rom a magic prefix which will automatically select the
appropriate PCI or ISA ROM prefix for ROMs defined via a PCI_ROM() or
ISA_ROM() macro. To maintain backwards compatibility, we default to
building a PCI ROM for anything which is not directly derived from a
PCI_ROM() or ISA_ROM() macro (e.g. bin/intel.rom).
Add a selection of targets to "make everything" to ensure that the
(relatively obscure) ISA ROM build process is included within the
per-commit QA checks.

Using version 1 grant tables limits guests to using 16TB of grantable
RAM, and prevents the use of subpage grants. Some versions of the Xen
hypervisor refuse to allow the grant table version to be set after the
first grant references have been created, so the loaded operating
system may be stuck with whatever choice we make here. We therefore
currently use version 2 grant tables, since they give the most
flexibility to the loaded OS.
Current versions (7.2.0) of the Windows PV drivers have no support for
version 2 grant tables, and will merrily create version 1 entries in
what the hypervisor believes to be a version 2 table. This causes
some confusion.
Avoid this problem by attempting to use version 1 tables, since
otherwise we may render Windows unable to boot.
Play nicely with other potential bootloaders by accepting either
version 1 or version 2 grant tables (if we are unable to set our
requested version).
Note that the use of version 1 tables on a 64-bit system introduces a
possible failure path in which a frame number cannot fit into the
32-bit field within the v1 structure. This in turn introduces
additional failure paths into netfront_transmit() and
netfront_refill_rx().

[xen] Accept alternative Xen platform PCI device ID 5853:0002
At some point during XenServer development history, the Windows PV
drivers changed to using a PCI device ID of 5853:0002 rather than
5853:0001. Current (7.2.0) drivers will bind to either 5853:0001 or
5853:0002, and the general approach taken by the world at large
(including Amazon EC2) seems to be to use only 5853:0001.
However, the current version of XenServer (6.2.0) will create the
platform device as 5853:0002 (via the platform:device_id VM parameter)
for any VMs created using the built-in templates for Windows Vista or
later.
Accept either PCI ID, since the underlying device is identical.

[efi] Default to releasing network devices for use via SNP
We currently treat network devices as available for use via the SNP
API only if RX queue processing has been frozen. (This is similar in
spirit to the way that RX queue processing is frozen for the network
device currently exposed via the PXE API.)
The default state of a freshly created network device is for the RX
queue to not be frozen, and thus to be unavailable for use via SNP.
This causes problems when devices are added through code paths other
than _efidrv_start() (which explicitly releases devices for use via
SNP).
We don't actually need to freeze RX queue processing, since calls via
the SNP API will always use netdev_poll() rather than net_poll(), and
so will never trigger the RX queue processing code path anyway.
We can therefore simplify the code to use a single global flag to
indicate whether network devices are claimed for use by iPXE or
available for use via SNP. Using a global flag allows the default
state for dynamically created network devices to behave sensibly.

[ioapi] Fail ioremap() when attempting to map a zero bus address
When a 32-bit iPXE binary is running on a system which allocates PCI
memory BARs above 4GB, our PCI subsystem will return the base address
for any such BARs as zero (with a warning message if DEBUG=pci is
enabled). Currently, ioremap() will happily map an address pointing
to the start of physical memory, providing no sensible indication of
failure.
Fix by always returning NULL if we are asked to ioremap() a zero bus
address.
With a totally flat memory model (e.g. under EFI), this provides an
accurate failure indication since no PCI peripheral will be mapped to
the zero bus address.
With the librm memory model, there is the possibility of a spurious
NULL return from ioremap() if the bus address happens to be equal to
virt_offset. Under the current virtual memory map, the NULL virtual
address will always be the start of .textdata, and so this problem
cannot occur; a NULL return from ioremap() will always be an accurate
failure indication.
