The retry timer is used to retransmit TFTP packets lost on the network,
and to start a new connection. There is an unnecessary delay while
waiting for name resolution because the timer period is fixed and cannot
be shortened when name resolution completes. This patch keeps the timer
period at zero while name resolution takes place so that no time is lost
once before sending the first packet.

IBM's Tivoli Provisioning Manager for OS Deployment, when acting as a
ProxyDHCP server, sends an initial offer with a vendor class of "PXEClient"
and vendor-encapsulated options that have nothing to do with PXE. To
differentiate between this case and the case of a ProxyDHCP server that
sends all PXE options in its initial offer, modify gPXE to check for
the presence of an encapsulated PXE boot menu option (43.9) instead of
simply checking for the existence of any encapsulated options at all.
This is the same check used by the Intel vendor PXE ROM.

The PXE standard provides examples of ProxyDHCP responses being encoded both
as type DHCPOFFER and DHCPACK, but currently we only accept DHCPACKs. Since
there are PXE servers in existence that respond to ProxyDHCPREQUESTs with
DHCPOFFERs, modify gPXE's ProxyDHCP pruning logic to treat both types of
responses equally.

This code is based on the linux skge driver. It supports Marvell Yukon
and SysKonnect Gigabit chipsets.
The code is based on code Michael Decker <mrd999@gmail.com> wrote for
Google Summer of Code 2008.
Support for dual-port cards is untested. The code, however, was left

of having to add support for it from scratch.

The bin/xxx.sizes targets examine the list of obj_ symbols in bin/xxx.tmp
to determine which objects to measure the size of. These symbols have been
normalized to C identifiers, so the result is an error message from `size'
when examining a target that includes objects that were originally named
with hyphens.
Fix by turning obj_foo_bar into $(wildcard bin/foo?bar.o) instead of
bin/foo_bar.o.

Change the behaviour for adding DHCP options into a DHCP packet so
that we now append options, rather than insert them in front of
whatever options might already be present.
Apparently, the DHCP relay logic on a Nortel 470-48T layer 2 switch
cares about the order of DHCP options. If we build a DHCP packet
pre-populated with some options, their order will now be preserved,
except for encapsulated options.

Apparently, the DHCP relay logic on a Nortel 470-48T layer 2 switch
cares about the order of DHCP options. Specifically, it requires
that the DHCP message type option be the first option present in the
DHCP packet. We achieve this by having this option appear first in
our dhcp_request_options_data array, which pre-populates DHCP
requests.

gPXE currently takes advantage of the feature of PCI3.0 that allows
option ROMs to relocate the bulk of their code to high memory and so
take up only a small amount of space in the option ROM area. Currently,
the relocation can only take place if the BIOS's implementation of PMM
can be made to return blocks aligned to an even megabyte, because of
the A20 gate. AMI BIOSes, in particular, will not return allocations
that gPXE can use.
Ameliorate the situation somewhat by adding a prefix, .hrom, that works
identically to .rom except in the case that PMM allocation fails. Where
.rom would give up and place itself entirely in option ROM space, .hrom
moves to a block (assumed free) at HIGHMEM_LOADPOINT = 4MB. This allows
for the use of larger gPXE ROMs than would otherwise be possible.
Because there is no way to check that the area at HIGHMEM_LOADPOINT is
really free, other devices using that memory during the boot process
will cause failure for gPXE, the other device, or both. In practice
such conflicts will likely not occur, but this prefix should still be
considered EXPERIMENTAL.

Contrary to the IEEE specification, some access points apparently
set the Spectrum Mgmt bit in the capabilities field even when
broadcasting on a 2.4GHz band that does not require spectrum
management. Allow gPXE to attempt to connect to such networks;
if spectrum management is really required, our advertisement
of capabilities not including it will result in an association
failure.

The disk partition prefix code in hdprefix.S reads the gPXE image in
tracks, not individual sectors. This means it will attempt to read
beyond the end of the image if the .hd image type is not padded to 32
KB.
This issue is affects virtualization software which may execute a .hd or
.usb image file directly - effectively running a machine with a tiny
disk containing just the gPXE image. Boot will fail when gPXE tries to
read beyond the end of disk.
The Multiboot memory map needs to be built after unhiding gPXE and
downloaded images from memory. Solaris faults during boot when trying
to access the ramdisk, which is hidden from the memory map while gPXE is
executing. This issue is fixed by using the memory map from after gPXE
unhides itself.

It is often the case that some module of gPXE is only relevant if the
subsystem it depends on is already being included. For instance,
commands to manage wireless interfaces are quite useless if no
compiled-in driver has pulled in the wireless networking stack. There
may be a user-modifiable configuration options for these dependent
modules, but even if enabled, they should not be included when they
would be useless.
Solve this by allowing the creation of config_subsystem.c, for
configuration directives like those in the global config.c that should
only be considered when subsystem.c is included in the final gPXE
build.
For consistency, move core/config.c to the config/ directory, where
the other config_subsystem.c files will eventually reside.

REQUIRE_SYMBOL() formerly used a formulation of symbol requirement
that would allow a link to succeed despite lacking a required symbol,
because it did not introduce any relocations. Fix by renaming it to
REQUEST_SYMBOL() (since the soft-requirement behavior can be useful)
and add a REQUIRE_SYMBOL() that truly requires.
Add EXPORT_SYMBOL() and IMPORT_SYMBOL() for REQUEST_SYMBOL()-like
behavior that allows one to make use of the symbol, by combining a
weak external on the symbol itself with a REQUEST_SYMBOL() of a second
symbol.

Some BIOSes (observed with an AMI BIOS on a SunFire X2200) seem to
reset the BIOS drive counter at 40:75 after a failed boot attempt.
This causes problems when attempting a Windows direct-to-iSCSI
installation: bootmgr.exe calls INT 13,0800 and gets told that there
are no hard disks, so never bothers to read the MBR in order to obtain
the boot disk signature. The Windows iSCSI initiator will detect the
iBFT and connect to the target, and everything will appear to work
except for the error message "This computer's hardware may not support
booting to this disk. Ensure that the disk's controller is enabled in
the computer's BIOS menu."
Fix by checking the BIOS drive counter on every INT 13 call, and
updating it whenever necessary.
The case of an unsupported SAN protocol will currently not result in
any error message. Fix by printing the error message at the top level
using strerror(), rather than using hard-coded error messages in the
error paths.
