As written, if the if the UNDI ISR call clobbers the upper halves of
any of the GPRs (which by convention it is permitted to do, and by
paranoia should be expected to do) then nothing in the interrupt
handler will recover the state.
Additionally, save/restore %fs and %gs out of sheer paranoia - it's a
cheap enough operation, and may prevent problems due to poorly written
UNDI stacks.
Since we don't know what the UNDI code does, it is safest to
save/restore %eflags even though the lower half of %eflags is
automatically saved by the interrupt itself.

Allow port numbers in iSCSI redirection.
Wait for SCSI status, not just the final data-in (which may be followed
by an explicit SCSI Response PDU if the S bit is not set).
Unconditionally set utility program variables in Makefile to allow CROSS_COMPILE to work.
stappers and xl0 pointed out that gnu make sets some variables, so ?=
is ineffective in some cases where we use it.. Cross-compilation
requires that some variables can be overridden in the
src/$(ARCH)/Config file, so include that file _after_ utility program
variables are set.

Hello,
gPXE didn't work on 3COM 905C Tornado cards for me.
It did transmit the DHCP request, but it didn't see the DHCP offer.
Adding debug print statements allready solved the problem.
Attached is a patch that has a cleaner delay then print statements.
The core of it is
- for(i=0;i<40000;i++);
+ mdelay(1);
There was no research if the change is about a longer delay
or about code NOT being optimized away. It works for me :-)
Cheers

Overwrite the device descriptor's IRQ number with whatever the legacy
driver's probe() routine fills in in nic->irqno. This is so that
non-interrupt-capable legacy drivers which set nic->irqno=0 will end
up reporting IRQ#0 via PXENV_UNDI_GET_INFORMATION; this in turn means
that the calling PXE NBP will (should) hook the timer interrupt, and
everything will sort of work.
Correct e1000 interrupt routine to enable on 1 disable on 0. duh.
The e1000_irq() routine should (per mcb30) do enable on non-zero,
disable on zero. This is not consistent in all drivers, so I'll
wait to update it when doing a global sweep.
Remove *_fill_nic() calls, and directly set nic->ioaddr and nic->irqno .
This needs to be done manually because if the irq() routine is
implemented then we want something like "nic->irqno = pci->irqno;",
else we do "nic->irqno = 0;" nic->ioaddr may also need to be set
carefully.
Also added local variables to end of many files, for emacs indentation
to match kernel style (tab does 8 space indent).
Remove the (unused) option to override _prefix_link_addr,
_textdata_link_addr, _load_addr and _max_align in the linker scripts.
A bug in some versions of ld causes segfaults if the DEFINED() macro
is used in a linker script *and* the -Map option to ld is present.
We don't currently need to override any of these values; if we need to
do so in future then the solution will probably be to always specify
the values on the ld command line, and have the linker script not
define them at all.
Provide individually cached constructed copies of DHCP packets via
PXENV_GET_CACHED_INFO. If we dont do this, Altiris' NBP screws up; it
relies on being able to grab pointers to each of the three packets and
then read them at will later.
