All consumers of profile_timestamp() currently treat the value as an
unsigned long. Only the elapsed number of ticks is ever relevant: the
absolute value of the timestamp is not used. Profiling is used to
measure short durations that are generally fewer than a million CPU
cycles, for which an unsigned long is easily large enough.
Standardise the return type of profile_timestamp() as unsigned long
across all CPU architectures. This allows 32-bit architectures such
as i386 and riscv32 to omit all logic associated with retrieving the
upper 32 bits of the 64-bit hardware counter, which simplifies the
code and allows riscv32 and riscv64 to share the same implementation.

Over the years, the undocumented operand modifier used to produce the
unprefixed constant values in __einfo_error() has varied from "%c0" to
"%a0" in commit 1a77466 ("[build] Fix use of inline assembly on GCC
4.8 ARM64 builds") and back to "%c0" in commit 3fb3ffc ("[build] Fix
use of inline assembly on GCC 8 ARM64 builds"), according to the
evolving demands of the toolchain.
LoongArch64 suffers from a similar issue: GCC 13 will allow either,
but the currently released GCC 12 allows only the "%a0" form.
Introduce a macro ASM_NO_PREFIX, defined in bits/compiler.h, to

SBAT defines an encoding for security generation numbers stored as a
CSV file within a special ".sbat" section in the signed binary. If a
Secure Boot exploit is discovered then the generation number will be
incremented alongside the corresponding fix.
Platforms may then record the minimum generation number required for
any given product. This allows for an efficient revocation mechanism
that consumes minimal flash storage space (in contrast to the DBX
mechanism, which allows for only a single-digit number of revocation
events to ever take place across all possible signed binaries).
Add SBAT metadata to iPXE EFI binaries to support this mechanism.

When building as a Linux userspace application, iPXE currently
implements its own system calls to the host kernel rather than relying
on the host's C library. The output binary is statically linked and
has no external dependencies.
This matches the general philosophy of other platforms on which iPXE
runs, since there are no external libraries available on either BIOS
or UEFI bare metal. However, it would be useful for the Linux
userspace application to be able to link against host libraries such
as libslirp.
Modify the build process to perform a two-stage link: first picking
out the requested objects in the usual way from blib.a but with
relocations left present, then linking again with a helper object to
create a standard hosted application. The helper object provides the
standard main() entry point and wrappers for the Linux system calls
required by the iPXE Linux drivers and interface code.

The existence of MMX and SSE is required by the System V x86_64 ABI
and so is assumed by gcc, but these registers are not preserved by our
own interrupt handlers and are unlikely to be preserved by other
context switch handlers in a boot firmware environment.
Explicitly prevent gcc from using MMX or SSE registers to avoid
potential problems due to silent register corruption.
We must remove the %xmm0-%xmm5 clobbers from the x86_64 version of
hv_call() since otherwise gcc will complain about unknown register
names. Theoretically, we should probably add code to explicitly
preserve the %xmm0-%xmm5 registers across a hypercall, in order to
guarantee to external code that these registers remain unchanged. In
practice this is difficult since SSE registers are disabled by
default: for background information see commits 71560d1 ("[librm]

Some older versions of binutils have issues with both the use of

The bulk of the iPXE binary (the .textdata section) is physically
relocated at runtime to the top of the 32-bit address space in order
to allow space for an OS to be loaded. The relocation is achieved
with the assistance of segmentation: we adjust the code and data
segment bases so that the link-time addresses remain valid.
Segmentation is not available (for normal code and data segments) in
long mode. We choose to compile the C code with -mcmodel=kernel and
use a link-time address of 0xffffffffeb000000. This choice allows us
to identity-map the entirety of the 32-bit address space, and to alias
our chosen link-time address to the physical location of our .textdata
section. (This requires the .textdata section to always be aligned to
a page boundary.)
We simultaneously choose to set the 32-bit virtual address segment
bases such that the link-time addresses may simply be truncated to 32
bits in order to generate a valid 32-bit virtual address. This allows
symbols in .textdata to be trivially accessed by both 32-bit and
64-bit code.
There is no (sensible) way in 32-bit assembly code to generate the
required R_X86_64_32S relocation records for these truncated symbols.
However, subtracting the fixed constant 0xffffffff00000000 has the
same effect as truncation, and can be represented in a standard
R_X86_64_32 relocation record. We define the VIRTUAL() macro to
abstract away this truncation operation, and apply it to all
references by 32-bit (or 16-bit) assembly code to any symbols within
the .textdata section.
We define "virt_offset" for a 64-bit build as "the value to be added
to an address within .textdata in order to obtain its physical
address". With this definition, the low 32 bits of "virt_offset" can
be treated by 32-bit code as functionally equivalent to "virt_offset"
in a 32-bit build.
We define "text16" and "data16" for a 64-bit build as the physical
addresses of the .text16 and .data16 sections. Since a physical
address within the 32-bit address space may be used directly as a
64-bit virtual address (thanks to the identity map), this definition
provides the most natural access to variables in .text16 and .data16.
Note that this requires a minor adjustment in prot_to_real(), which
accesses .text16 using 32-bit virtual addresses.

At some point in the past few years, binutils became more aggressive
at removing unused symbols. To function as a symbol requirement, a
relocation record must now be in a section marked with @progbits and
must not be in a section which gets discarded during the link (either
via --gc-sections or via /DISCARD/).
Update REQUIRE_SYMBOL() to generate relocation records meeting these
criteria. To minimise the impact upon the final binary size, we use
existing symbols (specified via the REQUIRING_SYMBOL() macro) as the
relocation targets where possible. We use R_386_NONE or R_X86_64_NONE
relocation types to prevent any actual unwanted relocation taking
place. Where no suitable symbol exists for REQUIRING_SYMBOL() (such
as in config.c), the macro PROVIDE_REQUIRING_SYMBOL() can be used to
generate a one-byte-long symbol to act as the relocation target.
If there are versions of binutils for which this approach fails, then
the fallback will probably involve killing off REQUEST_SYMBOL(),
redefining REQUIRE_SYMBOL() to use the current definition of
REQUEST_SYMBOL(), and postprocessing the linked ELF file with
something along the lines of "nm -u | wc -l" to check that there are
no undefined symbols remaining.

Our use of --gc-sections causes the linker to discard the symbols
defined by FILE_LICENCE(), meaning that the resulting licence
determination is incomplete.
We must use the KEEP() directive in the linker script to force the
linker to not discard the licence symbols. Using KEEP(*(COMMON))
would be undesirable, since there are some symbols in COMMON which we
may wish to discard.
Fix by placing symbols defined by PROVIDE_SYMBOL() (which is used by
FILE_LICENCE()) into a special ".provided" section, which we then mark
with KEEP(). All such symbols are zero-length, so there is no cost in
terms of the final binary size.
Since the symbols are no longer in COMMON, the linker will reject
symbols with the same name coming from multiple objects. We therefore
append the object name to the licence symbol, to ensure that it is
unique.

The block device interface used in gPXE predates the invention of even
the old gPXE data-transfer interface, let alone the current iPXE
generic asynchronous interface mechanism. Bring this old code up to
date, with the following benefits:
o Block device commands can be cancelled by the requestor. The INT 13
layer uses this to provide a global timeout on all INT 13 calls,
with the result that an unexpected passive failure mode (such as
an iSCSI target ACKing the request but never sending a response)
will lead to a timeout that gets reported back to the INT 13 user,
rather than simply freezing the system.
o INT 13,00 (reset drive) is now able to reset the underlying block
device. INT 13 users, such as DOS, that use INT 13,00 as a method
for error recovery now have a chance of recovering.
o All block device commands are tagged, with a numerical tag that
will show up in debugging output and in packet captures; this will
allow easier interpretation of bug reports that include both
sources of information.
o The extremely ugly hacks used to generate the boot firmware tables
have been eradicated and replaced with a generic acpi_describe()
method (exploiting the ability of iPXE interfaces to pass through
methods to an underlying interface). The ACPI tables are now
built in a shared data block within .bss16, rather than each
requiring dedicated space in .data16.
o The architecture-independent concept of a SAN device has been
exposed to the iPXE core through the sanboot API, which provides
calls to hook, unhook, boot, and describe SAN devices. This
allows for much more flexible usage patterns (such as hooking an
empty SAN device and then running an OS installer via TFTP).
