Some past security reviews carried out for UEFI Secure Boot signing
submissions have covered specific drivers or functional areas of iPXE.
Mark all of the files comprising these areas as permitted for UEFI
Secure Boot.

Mark all files used in a standard build of bin-x86_64-efi/snponly.efi
as permitted for UEFI Secure Boot. These files represent the core
functionality of iPXE that is guaranteed to have been included in
every binary that was previously subject to a security review and
signed by Microsoft. It is therefore legitimate to assume that at
least these files have already been reviewed to the required standard
multiple times.

Define the concept of an "FDT" image, representing a Flattened Device
Tree blob that has been downloaded in order to be provided to a kernel
or other executable image. FDT images are represented using an image
tag (as with other special-purpose images such as the UEFI shim), and
are similarly marked as hidden so that they will not be included in a
generated magic initrd or show up in a virtual filesystem directory
listing.

Add the "imgdecrypt" command that can be used to decrypt a detached
encrypted data image using a cipher key obtained from a separate CMS
envelope image. For example:
# Create non-detached encrypted CMS messages
#
openssl cms -encrypt -binary -aes-256-gcm -recip client.crt \
-in vmlinuz -outform DER -out vmlinuz.cms
openssl cms -encrypt -binary -aes-256-gcm -recip client.crt \
-in initrd.img -outform DER -out initrd.img.cms
# Detach data from envelopes (using iPXE's contrib/crypto/cmsdetach)
#
cmsdetach vmlinuz.cms -d vmlinuz.dat -e vmlinuz.env
cmsdetach initrd.img.cms -d initrd.img.dat -e initrd.img.env
and then within iPXE:
#!ipxe
imgfetch http://192.168.0.1/vmlinuz.dat
imgfetch http://192.168.0.1/initrd.img.dat
imgdecrypt vmlinuz.dat http://192.168.0.1/vmlinuz.env
imgdecrypt initrd.img.dat http://192.168.0.1/initrd.img.env

The drive specification alone does not necessarily contain enough
information to perform a SAN boot (or local disk boot) under UEFI. If
the next-stage bootloader is installed in the EFI system partition
under a non-standard name (e.g. "\EFI\debian\grubx64.efi") then this
explicit boot filename must also be specified.
Generalise this concept to use a "SAN boot configuration parameters"
structure (currently containing only the optional explicit boot
filename), to allow for easy expansion to provide other parameters
such as the partition UUID or volume label.

The UEFI shim implements a fairly nicely designed revocation mechanism
designed around the concept of security generations. Unfortunately
nobody in the shim community has thus far added the relevant metadata
to the Linux kernel, with the result that current versions of shim are
incapable of booting current versions of the Linux kernel.
Experience shows that there is unfortunately no point in trying to get
a fix for this upstreamed into shim. We therefore default to working
around this undesirable behaviour by patching data read from the
"SbatLevel" variable used to hold SBAT configuration.

Add support for using a shim as a helper to execute an EFI image.
When a shim has been specified via shim(), the shim image will be
passed to LoadImage() instead of the selected EFI image and the
command line will be prepended with the name of the selected EFI
image. The selected EFI image will be accessible to the shim via the
virtual filesystem as a hidden file.
Reduce the Secure Boot attack surface by removing, where possible, the
spurious requirement for a third party second stage loader binary such
as GRUB to be used solely in order to call the "shim lock protocol"
entry point.
Do not install the EFI PXE APIs when using a shim, since if shim finds
EFI_PXE_BASE_CODE_PROTOCOL on the loaded image's device handle then it
will attempt to download files afresh instead of using the files
already downloaded by iPXE and exposed via the EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM
protocol. (Experience shows that there is no point in trying to get a
fix for this upstreamed into shim.)

When chainloading iPXE from a VLAN device, the MAC address of the
loaded image's device handle will match the MAC address of the trunk
device created by iPXE, and the autoboot process will then erroneously
consider the trunk device to be an autoboot device.
Fix by recording the VLAN tag along with the MAC address, and treating
the VLAN tag as part of the filter used to match the MAC address
against candidate network devices.

Some older operating systems (e.g. RHEL6) use a non-default filename
on the root disk and rely on setting an EFI variable to point to the
bootloader. This does not work when performing a SAN boot on a
machine where the EFI variable is not present.
Fix by allowing a non-default filename to be specified via the
"sanboot --filename" option or the "san-filename" setting. For
example:
sanboot --filename \efi\redhat\grub.efi \
iscsi:192.168.0.1::::iqn.2010-04.org.ipxe.demo:rhel6
or
option ipxe.san-filename code 188 = string;
option ipxe.san-filename "\\efi\\redhat\\grub.efi";
option root-path "iscsi:192.168.0.1::::iqn.2010-04.org.ipxe.demo:rhel6";

Add basic support for multipath block devices. The "sanboot" and
"sanhook" commands now accept a list of SAN URIs. We open all URIs
concurrently. The first connection to become available for issuing
block device commands is marked as the active path and used for all
subsequent commands; all other connections are then closed. Whenever
the active path fails, we reopen all URIs and repeat the process.

These files cannot be automatically relicensed by util/relicense.pl
since they either contain unusual but trivial contributions (such as
the addition of __nonnull function attributes), or contain lines
dating back to the initial git revision (and so require manual

Add the "-c <count>" option to the "ping" command, allowing for
automatic termination after a specified number of packets.
When a number of packets is specified:
- if a serious error (i.e. length mismatch or content mismatch)
occurs, then the ping will be immediately terminated with the relevant
status code;
- if at least one response is received successfully, and all errors
are non-serious (i.e. timeouts or out-of-sequence responses), then
the ping will be terminated after the final response (or timeout)
with a success status;
- if no responses are received successfully, then the ping will be
terminated after the final timeout with ETIMEDOUT.
If no number of packets is specified, then the ping will continue
until manually interrupted.

iPXE will detect timeout failures in several situations: network
link-up, DHCP, TCP connection attempts, unacknowledged TCP data, etc.
This does not cover all possible circumstances. For example, if a
connection to a web server is successfully established and the web
server acknowledges the HTTP request but never sends any data in
response, then no timeout will be triggered. There is no timeout
defined within the HTTP specifications, and the underlying TCP
connection will not generate a timeout since it has no way to know
that the HTTP layer is expecting to receive data from the server.
Add a "--timeout" parameter to "imgfetch", "chain", etc. If no
progress is made (i.e. no data is downloaded) within the timeout
period, then the download will be aborted.

iPXE will currently attempt to boot from every network device for
which it has a driver. Where a system has more than one network
device supported by iPXE, this renders BIOS IPL lists ineffective.
Allow an autoboot device location to be specified. If such a location
is specified, then only devices matching that location will be used as
part of the automatic boot sequence. If no such location is
specified, then all devices will be used.
Note that this does not affect the "autoboot" command, which will
continue to use all devices.

Remove the name, cmdline, and action parameters from imgdownload() and
imgdownload_string(). These functions now simply download and return
an image.
Add the function imgacquire(), which will interpret a "name or URI
string" parameter and return either an existing image or a newly
downloaded image.
Use imgacquire() to merge similar image-management commands that
currently differ only by whether they take the name of an existing
image or the URI of a new image to download. For example, "chain" and
"imgexec" can now be merged.
Extend imgstat and imgfree commands to take an optional list of
images.
Remove the arbitrary restriction on the length of image names.

Refactor the {load,exec} image operations as {probe,exec}. This makes
the probe mechanism cleaner, eliminates some forward declarations,
avoids holding magic state in image->priv, eliminates the possibility
of screwing up between the "load" and "exec" stages, and makes the
documentation simpler since the concept of "loading" (as distinct from
"executing") no longer needs to be explained.

For performing installations direct to a SAN target, it can be very
useful to hook a SAN disk and then proceed to perform a filename boot.
For example, the user may wish to hook the (empty) SAN installation
disk and then boot into the OS installer via TFTP. This provides an
alternative mechanism to using "keep-san" and relying on the BIOS to
fall through to boot from the installation media, which is unreliable
on many BIOSes.
When a root-path is specified in addition to a boot filename, attempt
to hook the root-path as a SAN disk before booting from the specified
filename. Since the root-path may be used for non-SAN purposes
(e.g. an NFS root mount point), ignore the root-path if it contains a
URI scheme that we do not support.
