[dhcp] Allow for variable encapsulation of architecture-specific options
DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 share some values in common for the architecture-
specific options (such as the client system architecture type), but
use different encapsulations: DHCPv4 has a single byte for the option
length while DHCPv6 has a 16-bit field for the option length.
Move the containing DHCP_OPTION() and related wrappers from the
individual dhcp_arch.h files to dhcp.c, thus allowing for the
architecture-specific values to be reused in dhcpv6.c.

[tcp] Send TCP keepalives on idle established connections
In some circumstances, intermediate devices may lose state in a way
that temporarily prevents the successful delivery of packets from a
TCP peer. For example, a firewall may drop a NAT forwarding table
entry.
Since iPXE spends most of its time downloading files (and hence purely
receiving data, sending only TCP ACKs), this can easily happen in a
situation in which there is no reason for iPXE's TCP stack to generate
any retransmissions. The temporary loss of connectivity can therefore
effectively become permanent.
Work around this problem by sending TCP keepalives after a period of
inactivity on an established connection.
TCP keepalives usually send a single garbage byte in sequence number
space that has already been ACKed by the peer. Since we do not need
to elicit a response from the peer, we instead send pure ACKs (with no
garbage data) in order to keep the transmit code path simple.

[tls] Avoid potential out-of-bound reads in length fields
Many TLS records contain variable-length fields. We currently
validate the overall record length, but do so only after reading the
length of the variable-length field. If the record is too short to
even contain the length field, then we may read uninitialised data
from beyond the end of the record.
This is harmless in practice (since the subsequent overall record
length check would fail regardless of the value read from the
uninitialised length field), but causes warnings from some analysis
tools.
Fix by validating that the overall record length is sufficient to
contain the length field before reading from the length field.

[infiniband] Avoid multiple calls to ib_cmrc_shutdown()
When a CMRC connection is closed, the deferred shutdown process calls
ib_destroy_qp(). This will cause the receive work queue entries to
complete in error (since they are being cancelled), which will in turn
reschedule the deferred shutdown process. This eventually leads to
ib_destroy_conn() being called on a connection that has already been
freed.
Fix by explicitly cancelling any pending shutdown process after the
shutdown process has completed.
Ironically, this almost exactly reverts commit 019d4c1 ("[infiniband]
Use a one-shot process for CMRC shutdown"); prior to the introduction
of one-shot processes the only way to achieve a one-shot process was
for the process to cancel itself.

TFTP URIs are intrinsically problematic, since:
- TFTP servers may use either normal slashes or backslashes as a
directory separator,
- TFTP servers allow filenames to be specified using relative paths
(with no initial directory separator),
- TFTP filenames present in a DHCP filename field may use special
characters such as "?" or "#" that prevent parsing as a generic URI.
As of commit 7667536 ("[uri] Refactor URI parsing and formatting"), we
have directly constructed TFTP URIs from DHCP next-server and filename
pairs, avoiding the generic URI parser. This eliminated the problems
related to special characters, but indirectly made it impossible to
parse a "tftp://..." URI string into a TFTP URI with a non-absolute
path.
Re-introduce the convention of requiring an extra slash in a
"tftp://..." URI string in order to specify a TFTP URI with an initial
slash in the filename. For example:
tftp://192.168.0.1/boot/pxelinux.0 => RRQ "boot/pxelinux.0"
tftp://192.168.0.1//boot/pxelinux.0 => RRQ "/boot/pxelinux.0"
This is ugly, but there seems to be no other sensible way to provide
the ability to specify all possible TFTP filenames.
A side-effect of this change is that format_uri() will no longer add a
spurious initial "/" when formatting a relative URI string. This
improves the console output when fetching an image specified via a
relative URI.

[tftp] Do not change current working URI when TFTP server is cleared
For historical reasons, iPXE sets the current working URI to the root
of the TFTP server whenever the TFTP server address is changed. This
was originally implemented in the hope of allowing a DHCP-provided
TFTP filename to be treated simply as a relative URI. This usage
turns out to be impractical since DHCP-provided TFTP filenames may
include characters which would have special significance to the URI
parser, and so the DHCP next-server+filename combination is now
handled by the dedicated pxe_uri() function instead.
The practice of setting the current working URI to the root of the
TFTP server is potentially helpful for interactive uses of iPXE,
allowing a user to type e.g.
iPXE> dhcp
Configuring (net0 52:54:00:12:34:56)... ok
iPXE> chain pxelinux.0
and have the URI "pxelinux.0" interpreted as being relative to the
root of the TFTP server provided via DHCP.
The current implementation of tftp_apply_settings() has an unintended
flaw. When the "dhcp" command is used to renew a DHCP lease (or to
pick up potentially modified DHCP options), the old settings block
will be unregistered before the new settings block is registered.
This causes tftp_apply_settings() to believe that the TFTP server has
been changed twice (to 0.0.0.0 and back again), and so the current
working URI will always be set to the root of the TFTP server, even if
the DHCP response provides exactly the same TFTP server as previously.
Fix by doing nothing in tftp_apply_settings() whenever there is no
TFTP server address.

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.

[tcpip] Avoid generating positive zero for transmitted UDP checksums
TCP/IP checksum fields are one's complement values and therefore have
two possible representations of zero: positive zero (0x0000) and
negative zero (0xffff).
In RFC768, UDP over IPv4 exploits this redundancy to repurpose the
positive representation of zero (0x0000) to mean "no checksum
calculated"; checksums are optional for UDP over IPv4.
In RFC2460, checksums are made mandatory for UDP over IPv4. The
wording of the RFC is such that the UDP header is mandated to use only
the negative representation of zero (0xffff), rather than simply
requiring the checksum to be correct but allowing for either
representation of zero to be used.
In RFC1071, an example algorithm is given for calculating the TCP/IP
checksum. This algorithm happens to produce only the positive
representation of zero (0x0000); this is an artifact of the way that
unsigned arithmetic is used to calculate a signed one's complement
sum (and its final negation).
A common misconception has developed (exemplified in RFC1624) that
this artifact is part of the specification. Many people have assumed
that the checksum field should never contain the negative
representation of zero (0xffff).
A sensible receiver will calculate the checksum over the whole packet
and verify that the result is zero (in whichever representation of
zero happens to be generated by the receiver's algorithm). Such a
receiver will not care which representation of zero happens to be used
in the checksum field.
However, there are receivers in existence which will verify the
received checksum the hard way: by calculating the checksum over the
remainder of the packet and comparing the result against the checksum
field. If the representation of zero used by the receiver's algorithm
does not match the representation of zero used by the transmitter (and
so placed in the checksum field), and if the receiver does not
explicitly allow for both representations to compare as equal, then
the receiver may reject packets with a valid checksum.
For UDP, the combined RFCs effectively mandate that we should generate
only the negative representation of zero in the checksum field.
For IP, TCP and ICMP, the RFCs do not mandate which representation of
zero should be used, but the misconceptions which have grown up around
RFC1071 and RFC1624 suggest that it would be least surprising to
generate only the positive representation of zero in the checksum
field.
Fix by ensuring that all of our checksum algorithms generate only the
positive representation of zero, and explicitly inverting this in the
case of transmitted UDP packets.

[dhcp] Allow pseudo-DHCP servers to use pseudo-identifiers
Some ProxyDHCP servers and PXE boot servers do not specify a DHCP
server identifier via option 54. We currently work around this in a
variety of ad-hoc ways:
- if a ProxyDHCPACK has no server identifier then we treat it as
having the correct server identifier,
- if a boot server ACK has no server identifier then we use the
packet's source IP address as the server identifier.
Introduce the concept of a DHCP server pseudo-identifier, defined as
being:
- the server identifier (option 54), or
- if there is no server identifier, then the next-server address
(siaddr),
- if there is no server identifier or next-server address, then the
DHCP packet's source IP address.
Use the pseudo-identifier in place of the server identifier when
handling ProxyDHCP and PXE boot server responses.
