[vmware] Expose GuestRPC mechanism in 64-bit builds
The GuestRPC mechanism (used for VMWARE_SETTINGS and CONSOLE_VMWARE)
does not use any real-mode code and so can be exposed in both 64-bit
and 32-bit builds.

When USB network card drivers are used, the BIOS' legacy USB
capability is necessarily disabled since there is no way to share the
host controller between the BIOS and iPXE.
Commit 3726722 ("[usb] Add basic support for USB keyboards") added
support allowing a USB keyboard to be used within iPXE. However,
external code such as a PXE NBP has no way to utilise this support,
and so a USB keyboard cannot be used to control a PXE NBP loaded from
a USB network card.
Add support for injecting keypresses from any iPXE console into the
BIOS keyboard buffer. This allows external code such as a PXE NBP to
function with a USB keyboard even after the BIOS' legacy USB
capability has been disabled.

[build] Allow extra objects to be included in an all-drivers build
The build system allows for additional drivers (or other objects) to
be specified using build targets such as
make bin/intel--realtek.usb
make bin/8086100e--8086100f.mrom
This currently fails if the base target is the "bin/ipxe.*" all-drivers
target, e.g.
make bin/ipxe--acm.usb
Fix the build target parsing logic to allow additional drivers (or
other objects) to be included on top of the base all-drivers target.
This can be used to include USB network card drivers, which are not
yet included by default in the all-drivers build.

[xhci] Ensure that zero-length packets are not part of a TRB chain
Some xHCI controllers (such as qemu's emulated xHCI controller) do not
correctly handle zero-length packets that are part of a TRB chain.
The zero-length TRB ends up being squashed and does not result in a
zero-length packet as seen by the device.
Work around this problem by marking the zero-length packet as
belonging to a separate transfer descriptor.

[usb] Allow additional settling time for out-of-spec hubs
Some hubs (e.g. the Avocent Corp. Virtual Hub on a Lenovo x3550
Integrated Management Module) have been observed to require more than
the standard 200ms for ports to stabilise, with the result that
devices appear to disconnect and immediately reconnect during the
initial bus enumeration.
Work around this problem by allowing specific hubs an extra 500ms of
settling time.

[usb] Record USB device speed separately from current port speed
Record the speed of a USB device based on the port's speed at the time
that the device was enabled. This allows us to remember the device's
speed even after the device has been disconnected (and so the port's
current speed has changed).
In particular, this allows us to correctly identify the transaction
translator for a low-speed or full-speed device after the device has
been disconnected.

[usb] Use port->disconnected to check for disconnected devices
The usb_message() and usb_stream() functions currently check for
port->speed==USB_SPEED_NONE to determine whether or not a device has
been unplugged. This test will give a false negative result if a new
device has been plugged in before the hotplug mechanism has finished
handling the removal of the old device.
Fix by checking instead the port->disconnected flag, which is now
cleared only after completing the removal of the old device.

[smsc95xx] Add driver for SMSC/Microchip LAN95xx USB Ethernet NICs
Tested using QEMU and usbredir to expose the LAN9512 chip present on a
Raspberry Pi.
There is a known issue with the LAN9512: an extra two bytes are
appended to every transmitted packet. These two bytes comprise:
{ 0x00, 0x08 } if packet length == 0 (mod 8)
{ CRC[0], 0x00 } if packet length == 7 (mod 8)
{ CRC[0], CRC[1] } otherwise
The extra bytes are appended whether the Ethernet CRC is generated
manually or added automatically by the hardware. The issue occurs
with the Linux kernel driver as well as the iPXE driver. It appears
to be an undocumented hardware errata.
TCP/IP traffic is not affected, since the IP header length field
causes the extraneous bytes to be discarded by the receiver. However,
protocols that rely on the length of the Ethernet frame (such as FCoE
or iPXE's "lotest" protocol) will be unusable on this hardware.

On some models (notably ICH), the PHY reset mechanism appears to be
broken. In particular, the PHY_CTRL register will be correctly loaded
from NVM but the values will not be propagated to the "OEM bits" PHY
register. This typically has the effect of dropping the link speed to
10Mbps.
Since the original version of this driver in commit 945e428 ("[intel]
Replace driver for Intel Gigabit NICs"), we have always worked around
this problem by skipping the PHY reset if the link is already up.
Enhance this workaround by explicitly checking for known-broken PCI
IDs.

[comboot] Reset console before starting COMBOOT executable
iPXE does not call shutdown() before invoking a COMBOOT executable,
since the executable is allowed to make API calls back into iPXE. If
a background picture is used, then the console will not be restored to
text mode before invoking the COMBOOT executable. This can cause
undefined behaviour.
Fix by adding an explicit call to console_reset() immediately before
invoking a COMBOOT or COM32 executable, analogous to the call made to
console_reset() immediately before invokving a PXE NBP.

[dhcp] Limit maximum number of DHCP discovery deferrals
For switches which remain permanently in the non-forwarding state (or

If we detect (via STP) that a switch port is in a non-forwarding
state, then the link is marked as being temporarily blocked and DHCP
discovery will be deferred until the link becomes unblocked.
The timer used to decide when to give up waiting for ProxyDHCPOFFERs
is currently based on the time that DHCP discovery was started, and
makes no allowances for any time spent waiting for the link to become
unblocked. Consequently, if STP is used then the timeout for
ProxyDHCPOFFERs becomes essentially zero.
Fix by resetting the recorded start time whenever DHCP discovery is
deferred due to a blocked link.

[efi] Expose an UNDI interface alongside the existing SNP interface
UEFI UNDI is a hideously ugly lump of poorly specified garbage bolted
on as an appendix of the UEFI specification. My personal favourite
line from the UNDI 'specification' is section E.2.2, which states
"Basically, the rule is: Do it right, or don't do it at all". The
author appears to believe that such exhortations are a viable
substitute for documenting what it is that the wretched reader is
supposed to, in fact, do.
(Second favourite is the section listing the pros and cons of various
driver types. This fails to identify a single con for the mythical
"Hardware UNDI", a design so insanely intrinsically slow that it
appears to have been the inspiration for the EFI_USB_IO_PROTOCOL.)
UNDI is functionally isomorphic to the substantially less preposterous
EFI_SIMPLE_NETWORK_PROTOCOL. Provide an UNDI interface (as a thin
wrapper around the existing SNP interface) to allow for use by
third-party software that has made poor life choices.

[efi] Avoid infinite loops when asked to stop non-existent devices
Calling EDK2's OpenProtocol() with attributes BY_DRIVER|EXCLUSIVE will
call DisconnectController() in a loop to attempt to dislodge any
existing openers with attributes BY_DRIVER. The loop will continue
indefinitely until either no such openers remain, or until
DisconnectController() returns an error.
If our driver binding protocol's Stop() method is ever called to
disconnect a device that we are not in fact driving, then return
EFI_DEVICE_ERROR rather than EFI_SUCCESS, in order to break this
potentially infinite loop.

[efi] Work around broken 32-bit PE executable parsing in ImageHlp.dll
The Microsoft PE/COFF specification defines the MajorLinkerVersion and
MinorLinkerVersion fields as "The linker major version number" and
"The linker minor version number" respectively, and has nothing more
to say on the matter. These fields have no significance: they do not
affect the interpretation of the remainder of the file, but merely
provide diagnostic information for interested humans to read.
Apparently, versions 2.4 and earlier of the Microsoft linker produced
binaries so incorrigibly cursed that even to attempt to parse such a
binary would risk summoning a plague of enraged spiders. To protect
users from unwanted arachnids, ImageHlp.dll's MapAndLoad() function
will helpfully fail to map and/or load a 32-bit binary unless the
linker version field indicates version 2.5 or later. (64-bit binaries
are exempt from such helpfulness.)
Work around the broken Microsoft ImageHlp.dll library by providing a
linker version number that will satisfy the arbitrary whims of the
MapAndLoad() function.
This mirrors wimboot commit 670c7e2 ("[efi] Work around broken 32-bit
PE executable parsing in ImageHlp.dll").

[pxe] Notify BIOS via INT 1a,564e for each new network device

[pxe] Invoke INT 1a,564e when PXE stack is activated
Invoke INT 1a,564e whenever a PXE stack is activated, passing the
address of the PXENV+ structure in %es:%bx. This is designed to allow
a BIOS to be notified when a PXE stack has been installed, providing
an opportunity for start-of-day commands such as setting the MAC
address according to a policy chosen by the BIOS.
PXE defines INT 1a,5650 as a means of locating the PXENV+ structure:
this call returns %ax=0x564e and the address of the PXENV+ structure
in %es:%bx. We choose INT 1a,564e as a fairly natural notification
call, using the parameters as would be returned by INT 1a,5650.
The full calling convention (documented as per section 3.1 of the PXE
specification) is:
INT 1a,564e - PXE installation notification
Enter:
%ax = 0x564e
%es = 16-bit segment address of the PXENV+ structure
%bx = 16-bit offset of the PXENV+ structure
Exit:
%edx may be trashed (as is the case for INT 1a,5650)
All other register contents must be preserved
CF is cleared
IF is preserved
All other flags are undefined

Commit 7d36a1b ("[build] Explicitly link efilink against -liberty")
introduced a dependency on libiberty to cope with old versions of
libbfd. This commit dates from 2008 and seems to apply only to what
are now extremely old versions of libbfd (prior to binutils 2.12).
There are systems (such as current Debian) which do not include
libiberty within the binutils packages. On such systems, our build
dependency on libiberty represents a pointless hurdle.
Remove the explicit dependency on libiberty, hoping that there are no
modern systems where this will cause a problem.
