[libc] Add x86_64 versions of setjmp() and longjmp()
None of the x86_64 builds currently have any way of invoking these
functions. They are included only to avoid introducing unnecessary
architecture-specific dependencies into the self-test suite.

Commit 8ab4b00 ("[libc] Rewrite setjmp() and longjmp()") introduced a
regression in which the saved values of %ebx, %esi, and %edi were all
accidentally restored into %esp. The result is that the second and
subsequent returns from setjmp() would effectively corrupt %ebx, %esi,
%edi, and the stack pointer %esp.
Use of setjmp() and longjmp() is generally discouraged: our only use
occurs as part of the implementation of PXENV_RESTART_TFTP, since the
PXE API effectively mandates its use here. The call to setjmp()
occurs at the start of pxe_start_nbp(), where there are almost
certainly no values held in %ebx, %esi, or %edi. The corruption of
these registers therefore had no visible effect on program execution.
The corruption of %esp would have been visible on return from
pxe_start_nbp(), but there are no known PXE NBPs which first call
PXENV_RESTART_TFTP and subsequently attempt to return to the PXE base
code. The effect on program execution was therefore similar to that
of moving the stack to a pseudo-random location in the 32-bit address
space; this will often allow execution to complete successfully since
there is a high chance that the pseudo-random location will be unused.
The regression therefore went undetected for around one month.
Fix by restoring the correct registers from the saved jmp_buf
structure.

[xhci] Support USB1 devices attached via transaction translators
xHCI provides a somewhat convoluted mechanism for specifying details
of a transaction translator. Hubs must be marked as such in the
device slot context. The only opportunity to do so is as part of a
Configure Endpoint command, which can be executed only when opening
the hub's interrupt endpoint.
We add a mechanism for host controllers to intercept the opening of
hub devices, providing xHCI with an opportunity to update the internal
device slot structure for the corresponding USB device to indicate
that the device is a hub. We then include the hub-specific details in
the input context whenever any Configure Endpoint command is issued.
When a device is opened, we record the device slot and port for its
transaction translator (if any), and supply these as part of the
Address Device command.

[ehci] Support USB1 devices attached via transaction translators
Support low-speed and full-speed devices attached to a USB2 hub. Such
devices use a transaction translator (TT) within the USB2 hub, which
asynchronously initiates transactions on the lower-speed bus and
returns the result via a split completion on the high-speed bus.
We make the simplifying assumption that there will never be more than
sixteen active interrupt endpoints behind a single transaction
translator; this assumption allows us to schedule all periodic start
splits in microframe 0 and all periodic split completions in
microframes 2 and 3. (We do not handle isochronous endpoints.)

[usb] Reset endpoints without waiting for a new transfer to be enqueued
The current endpoint reset logic defers the reset until the caller
attempts to enqueue a new transfer to that endpoint. This is
insufficient when dealing with endpoints behind a transaction
translator, since the transaction translator is a resource shared
between multiple endpoints.
We cannot reset the endpoint as part of the completion handling, since
that would introduce recursive calls to usb_poll(). Instead, we
add the endpoint to a list of halted endpoints, and perform the reset
on the next call to usb_step().

The endpoint may already have enqueued TRBs at the time that
xhci_endpoint_reset() is called. Ring the doorbell to resume
processing these TRBs immediately, rather than waiting until the next

Several of the USB timeouts were chosen on the principle of "pick an
arbitrary but ridiculously large value, just to be safe". It turns
out that some of the timeouts permitted by the USB specification are
even larger: for example, control transactions are allowed to take up
to five seconds to complete.
Fix up these USB timeout values to match those found in the USB2
specification.

[xhci] Do not release ownership back to BIOS when booting an OS
xHCI (and EHCI) nominally provide a mechanism for releasing ownership
of the host controller back to the BIOS, which can then potentially
restore legacy USB keyboard functionality.
This is a rarely used code path, since most operating systems claim
ownership and never attempt to later return to the BIOS. On some
systems (observed with a Lenovo X1 Carbon), this code path leads to
obscure and interesting bugs: if the xHCI and EHCI controllers are
both claimed and later released back to the BIOS, then a subsequent
call to INT 16,0305 to set the keyboard repeat rate to a non-default
value will lock the system.
Obscure though this sequence of operations may sound, it is exactly
what happens when using iPXE to boot a Linux kernel via a USB network
card. There is old and probably unwanted code in Linux's
arch/x86/boot/main.c which sets the keyboard repeat rate (with the
accompanying comment "Set keyboard repeat rate (why?)"). When booting
Linux via a USB network card on a Lenovo X1 Carbon, the system
therefore locks up immediately after jumping to the kernel's entry
point.
Work around this problem by preventing the release of ownership back
to the BIOS if it is known that we are shutting down to boot an OS.
This should allow legacy USB keyboard functionality to be restored if
the user chooses to exit iPXE, while avoiding the rarely used code
paths (and corresponding BIOS bugs) if the user chooses instead to
boot an OS.

[autoboot] Match against parent devices when matching by bus type and location
When using iPXE as an option ROM for a PCI USB controller (e.g. via
qemu's "-device nec-usb-xhci,romfile=..." syntax), the ROM prefix will
set the PCI bus:dev.fn address of the USB controller as the PCI
autoboot device. This will cause iPXE to fail to boot from any
detected USB network devices, since they will not match the autoboot
bus type (or location).
Fix by allowing the autoboot bus type and location to match against
the network device or any of its parent devices. This allows the
match to succeed for USB network devices attached to the selected PCI
USB controller.

[smsc75xx] Move RX FIFO overflow message to DBGLVL_EXTRA
RX FIFO overflow is almost inevitable since the (usable) USB2 bus
bandwidth is approximately one quarter of the Ethernet bandwidth.
Avoid flooding the console with RX FIFO overflow messages in a
standard debug build.
With TCP SACK implemented, the RX FIFO overflow no longer causes a
catastrophic drop in throughput. Experimentation shows that HTTP
downloads now progress at a fairly smooth 250Mbps, which is around the
maximum speed attainable for a USB2 NIC.

[tcp] Implement support for TCP Selective Acknowledgements (SACK)
The TCP Selective Acknowledgement option (specified in RFC2018)
provides a mechanism for the receiver to indicate packets that have
been received out of order (e.g. due to earlier dropped packets).
iPXE often operates in environments in which there is a high
probability of packet loss. For example, the legacy USB keyboard
emulation in some BIOSes involves polling the USB bus from within a
system management interrupt: this introduces an invisible delay of
around 500us which is long enough for around 40 full-length packets to
be dropped. Similarly, almost all 1Gbps USB2 devices will eventually
end up dropping packets because the USB2 bus does not provide enough
bandwidth to sustain a 1Gbps stream, and most devices will not provide
enough internal buffering to hold a full TCP window's worth of
received packets.
Add support for sending TCP Selective Acknowledgements. This provides
the sender with more detailed information about which packets have
been lost, and so allows for a more efficient retransmission strategy.
We include a SACK-permitted option in our SYN packet, since
experimentation shows that at least Linux peers will not include a
SACK-permitted option in the SYN-ACK packet if one was not present in
the initial SYN. (RFC2018 does not seem to mandate this behaviour,
but it is consistent with the approach taken in RFC1323.) We ignore
any received SACK options; this is safe to do since SACK is only ever
advisory and we never have to send non-trivial amounts of data.
Since our TCP receive queue is a candidate for cache discarding under
low memory conditions, we may end up discarding data that has been
reported as received via a SACK option. This is permitted by RFC2018.
We follow the stricture that SACK blocks must not report data which is
no longer held by the receiver: previously-reported blocks are
validated against the current receive queue before being included
within the current SACK block list.
Experiments in a qemu VM using forced packet drops (by setting
NETDEV_DISCARD_RATE to 32) show that implementing SACK improves
throughput by around 400%.
Experiments with a USB2 NIC (an SMSC7500) show that implementing SACK
improves throughput by around 700%, increasing the download rate from
35Mbps up to 250Mbps (which is approximately the usable bandwidth
limit for USB2).

[smsc75xx] Add driver for SMSC/Microchip LAN75xx USB Ethernet NICs
This driver is functional but any downloads via a TCP-based protocol
tend to perform poorly. The 1Gbps Ethernet line rate is substantially
higher than the 480Mbps (in practice around 280Mbps) provided by USB2,
and the device has only 32kB of internal buffer memory. Our 256kB TCP
receive window therefore rapidly overflows the RX FIFO, leading to
multiple dropped packets (usually within the same TCP window) and
hence a low overall throughput.
Reducing the TCP window size so that the RX FIFO does not overflow
greatly increases throughput, but is not a general-purpose solution.
Further investigation is required to determine how other OSes
(e.g. Linux) cope with this scenario. It is possible that
implementing TCP SACK would provide some benefit.

Most devices expose at least the link up/down status via a bit in a
MAC register, since the MAC generally already needs to know whether or
not the link is up. Some devices (e.g. the SMSC75xx USB NIC) expose
this information to software only via the MII registers.
Provide a generic mii_check_link() implementation to check the BMSR
and report the link status via netdev_link_{up,down}().

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.
