cd803ff2e2 [image] Add the concept of a static image
Not all images are allocated via alloc_image().  For example: embedded
images, the static images created to hold a runtime command line, and
the images used by unit tests are all static structures.

Using image_set_cmdline() (via e.g. the "imgargs" command) to set the
command-line arguments of a static image will succeed but will leak
memory, since nothing will ever free the allocated command line.
There are no code paths that can lead to calling image_set_len() on a
static image, but there is no safety check against future code paths
attempting this.

Define a flag IMAGE_STATIC to mark an image as statically allocated,
generalise free_image() to also handle freeing dynamically allocated
portions of static images (such as the command line), and expose
free_image() for use by static images.

Define a related flag IMAGE_STATIC_NAME to mark the name as statically
allocated.  Allow a statically allocated name to be replaced with a
dynamically allocated name since this is a potentially valid use case
(e.g. if "imgdecrypt --name <name>" is used on an embedded image).

412ad56012 [initrd] Use physical addresses for calculations on initrd locations
Commit ef03849 ("[uaccess] Remove redundant userptr_add() and
userptr_diff()") exposed a signedness bug in the comparison of initrd
locations, since the expression (initrd->data - current) was
effectively no longer coerced to a signed type.

In particular, the common case will be that the top of the initrd
region is the start of the iPXE .textdata region, which has virtual
address zero.  This causes initrd->data to compare as being above the
top of the initrd region for all images, when this bug would
previously have been limited to affecting only initrds placed 2GB or
more below the start of .textdata.

Fix by using physical addresses for all comparisons on initrd
locations.

0b606221cb [undi] Ensure forward progress is made even if UNDI IRQ is stuck
If the UNDI interrupt remains constantly asserted (e.g. because the
BIOS has enabled interrupts for an unrelated device sharing the same
IRQ, or because of bugs in the OEM UNDI driver), then we may get stuck
in an interrupt storm.

We cannot safely chain to the previous interrupt handler (which could
plausibly handle an unrelated device interrupt) since there is no
well-defined behaviour for previous interrupt handlers.  We have
observed BIOSes to provide default interrupt handlers that variously
do nothing, send EOI, disable the IRQ, or crash the system.

Fix by disabling the UNDI interrupt whenever our handler is triggered,
and rearm it as needed when polling the network device.  This ensures
that forward progress continues to be made even if something causes
the interrupt to be constantly asserted.

4134280bcd [pxeprefix] Ensure that UNDI IRQ is disabled before starting iPXE
When using the undionly.kkpxe binary (which is never recommended), the
UNDI interrupt may still be enabled when iPXE starts up.  If the PXE
base code interrupt handler is not well-behaved, this can result in
undefined behaviour when interrupts are first enabled (e.g. for
entropy gathering, or for allowing the timer tick to occur).

Fix by detecting and disabling the UNDI interrupt during the prefix
code.

829e2d1f29 [rng] Restore state of IRQ 8 and PIE when disabling entropy gathering
Legacy IRQ 8 appears to be enabled by default on some platforms.  If
iPXE selects the RTC entropy source, this will currently result in the
RTC IRQ 8 being unconditionally disabled.  This can break assumptions
made by BIOSes or subsequent bootloaders: in particular, the FreeBSD
loader may lock up at the point of starting its default 10-second
countdown when it calls INT 15,86.

Fix by restoring the previous state of IRQ 8 instead of disabling it
unconditionally.  Note that we do not need to disable IRQ 8 around the
point of hooking (or unhooking) the ISR, since this code will be
executing in iPXE's normal state of having interrupts disabled anyway.

Also restore the previous state of the RTC periodic interrupt enable,
rather than disabling it unconditionally.

be3a78eaf8 [lkrnprefix] Support a longer version string
The bzImage specification allows two bytes for the setup code jump
instruction at offset 0x200, which limits its relative offset to +0x7f
bytes.  This currently imposes an upper limit on the length of the
version string, which currently precedes the setup code.

Fix by moving the version string to the .prefix.data section, so that
it no longer affects the placement of the setup code.

12ea8c4074 [cpio] Allow for construction of parent directories as needed
iPXE allows individual raw files to be automatically wrapped with
suitable CPIO headers and injected into the magic initrd image as
exposed to a booted Linux kernel.  This feature is currently limited
to placing files within directories that already exist in the initrd
filesystem.

Remove this limitation by adding the ability for iPXE to construct
CPIO headers for parent directories as needed, under control of the
"mkdir=<n>" command-line argument.  For example:

  initrd config.ign /usr/share/oem/config.ign mkdir=1

will create CPIO headers for the "/usr/share/oem" directory as well as
for the "/usr/share/oem/config.ign" file itself.

This simplifies the process of booting operating systems such as
Flatcar Linux, which otherwise require the single "config.ign" file to
be manually wrapped up as a CPIO archive solely in order to create the
relevant parent directory entries.

The value <n> may be used to control the number of parent directory
entries that are created.  For example, "mkdir=2" would cause up to
two parent directories to be created (i.e. "/usr/share" and
"/usr/share/oem" in the above example).  A negative value such as
"mkdir=-1" may be used to create all parent directories up to the root
of the tree.

Do not create any parent directory entries by default, since doing so
would potentially cause the modes and ownership information for
existing directories to be overwritten.
