The EFI_HII_CONFIG_ACCESS_PROTOCOL's ExtractConfig() method is passed
a request string which includes the parameters being queried plus an
apparently meaningless blob of information (the ConfigHdr), and is
expected to include this same meaningless blob of information in the
results string.
Neither the specification nor the existing EDK2 code (including the
nominal reference implementation in the DriverSampleDxe driver)
provide any reason for the existence of this meaningless blob of
information. It appears to be consumed in its entirety by the
EFI_HII_CONFIG_ROUTING_PROTOCOL, and to contain zero bits of
information by the time it reaches an EFI_HII_CONFIG_ACCESS_PROTOCOL
instance. It would potentially allow for multiple configuration data
sets to be handled by a single EFI_HII_CONFIG_ACCESS_PROTOCOL
instance, in a style alien to the rest of the UEFI specification
(which implicitly assumes that the instance pointer is always
sufficient to uniquely identify the instance).
iPXE currently handles this by simply copying the ConfigHdr from the
request string to the results string, and otherwise ignoring it. This
approach is also used by some code in EDK2, such as OVMF's PlatformDxe
driver.
As of EDK2 commit 8a45f80 ("MdeModulePkg: Make HII configuration
settings available to OS runtime"), this causes an assertion failure
inside EDK2. The failure arises when iPXE is handled a NULL request
string, and responds (as per the specification) with a results string
including all settings. Since there is no meaningless blob to copy
from the request string, there is no corresponding meaningless blob in
the results string. This now causes an assertion failure in
HiiDatabaseDxe's HiiConfigRoutingExportConfig().
The same failure does not affect the OVMF PlatformDxe driver, which
simply passes the request string to the HII BlockToConfig() utility
function. The BlockToConfig() function returns EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER
when passed a null request string, and PlatformDxe propagates this
error directly to the caller.
Fix by matching the behaviour of OVMF's PlatformDxe driver: explicitly
return EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER if the request string is NULL or empty.
This violates the specification (insofar as it is feasible to
determine what the specification actually requires), but causes
correct behaviour with the EDK2 codebase.

[libc] Print "<NULL>" for wide-character NULL strings

There is no way for the hardware to give us an invalid length in the
LRH, since it must have parsed this length field in order to perform
header splitting. However, this is difficult to prove conclusively.
Add an unnecessary length check to explicitly reject any packets
larger than the posted receive I/O buffer.

It is possible for the preloaded UNDI device to end up with no
specified bus type, since it may not be recognised as either a PCI or
an ISAPnP device. This will result in a bus type value of zero, which
currently results in NULL being treated as a string pointer by
netdev_fetch_bustype().
Fix by returning ENOENT if an unknown bus type is specified.

[pxe] Implicitly open network device in PXENV_UDP_OPEN
Some end-user configurations have been observed in which the first NBP
(such as GRUB2) uses the UNDI API and then transfers control to a
second NBP (such as pxelinux) which uses the UDP API. The first NBP
closes the network device using PXENV_UNDI_CLOSE, which renders the
UDP API unable to transmit or receive packets.
The correct behaviour under these circumstances is (as often) simply
not documented by the PXE specification. Testing with the Intel PXE
stack suggests that PXENV_UDP_OPEN will implicitly reopen the network
device if necessary, so match this behaviour.

[int13] Allow default drive to be specified via "san-drive" setting
The DHCP option 175.189 has been defined (by us) since 2006 as

[build] Do not use "objcopy -O binary" for objects with relocation records
The mbr.bin and usbdisk.bin standalone blobs are currently generated
using "objcopy -O binary", which does not process relocation records.
For the i386 build, this does not matter since the section start
address is zero and so the ".rel" relocation records are effectively
no-ops anyway.
For the x86_64 build, the ".rela" relocation records are not no-ops,
since the addend is included as part of the relocation record (rather
than inline). Using "objcopy -O binary" will silently discard the
relocation records, with the result that all symbols are effectively
given a value of zero.
Fix by using "ld --oformat binary" instead of "objcopy -O binary" to
generate mbr.bin and usbdisk.bin.

The Infiniband specification (volume 1, section 11.4.1.2 "Post Receive
Request") notes that for UD QPs, the GRH will be placed in the first
40 bytes of the receive buffer if present. (If no GRH is present,
which is normal, then the first 40 bytes of the receive buffer will be
unused.)
Mellanox hardware performs this placement automatically: other headers
will be stripped (and their values returned via the CQE), but the
first 40 bytes of the data buffer will be consumed by the (probably
non-existent) GRH.
This does not fit neatly into iPXE's internal abstraction, which
expects the data buffer to represent just the data payload with the
addresses from the GRH (if present) passed as additional parameters to
ib_complete_recv().
The end result of this discrepancy is that attempts to receive
full-sized 2048-byte IPoIB packets on Mellanox hardware will fail.
Fix by allocating a separate ring buffer to hold the received GRHs.

[crypto] Allow trusted certificates to be stored in non-volatile options
The intention of the existing code (as documented in its own comments)
is that it should be possible to override the list of trusted root
certificates using a "trust" setting held in non-volatile stored
options. However, the rootcert_init() function currently executes
before any devices have been probed, and so will not be able to
retrieve any such non-volatile stored options.
Fix by executing rootcert_init() only after devices have been probed.
Since startup functions may be executed multiple times (unlike
initialisation functions), add an explicit flag to preserve the
property that rootcert_init() should run only once.
As before, if an explicit root of trust is specified at build time,
then any runtime "trust" setting will be ignored.

[efi] Provide access to files stored on EFI filesystems
Provide access to local files via the "file://" URI scheme. There are
three syntaxes:
- An opaque URI with a relative path (e.g. "file:script.ipxe").
This will be interpreted as a path relative to the iPXE binary.
- A hierarchical URI with a non-network absolute path
(e.g. "file:/boot/script.ipxe"). This will be interpreted as a
path relative to the root of the filesystem from which the iPXE
binary was loaded.
- A hierarchical URI with a network path in which the authority is a
volume label (e.g. "file://bootdisk/script.ipxe"). This will be
interpreted as a path relative to the root of the filesystem with
the specified volume label.
Note that the potentially desirable shell mappings (e.g. "fs0:" and
"blk0:") are concepts internal to the UEFI shell binary, and do not
seem to be exposed in any way to external executables. The old
EFI_SHELL_PROTOCOL (which did provide access to these mappings) is no
longer installed by current versions of the UEFI shell.

[build] Allow assembler section type character to vary by architecture
On some architectures (such as ARM) the "@" character is used as a
comment delimiter. A section type argument such as "@progbits"
therefore becomes "%progbits".
This is further complicated by the fact that the "%" character has
special meaning for inline assembly when input or output operands are
used, in which cases "@progbits" becomes "%%progbits".
Allow the section type character(s) to be defined via Makefile
variables.
