The base address provided in the PCI ECAM allocation within the ACPI
MCFG table is the base address for the segment as a whole, not for the
starting bus within that allocation. On machines that provide ECAM
allocations with a non-zero starting bus number (observed with an AWS
EC2 m7a.large instance), this will result in iPXE accessing the wrong
memory addresses within the ECAM region.
Fix by adding the appropriate starting bus offset to the base address.

The PCIe specification requires that "processor and host bridge
implementations must ensure that a method exists for the software to
determine when the write using the ECAM is completed by the completer"
but does not specify any particular method to be used. Some platforms
might treat writes to the ECAM region as non-posted, others might
require reading back from a dedicated (and implementation-specific)
completion register to determine when the configuration space write
has completed.
Since PCI configuration space writes will never be used for any
performance-critical datapath operations (on any sane hardware), a
simple and platform-independent solution is to always read back from
the written register in order to guarantee that the write must have
completed. This is safe to do, since the PCIe specification defines a
limited set of configuration register types, none of which have read
side effects.

The ipair_tx() function uses a va_list twice (first to calculate the
formatted string length before allocation, then to construct the
string in the allocated buffer) but is missing the va_start() and
va_end() around the second usage. This is undefined behaviour that
happens to work on some build platforms.
Fix by adding the missing va_start() and va_end() around the second
usage of the variadic argument list.

We currently use the number of timer ticks since power-on as a seed
for the non-cryptographic RNG implemented by random(). Since iPXE is
often executed directly after power-on, and since the timer tick
resolution is generally low, this can often result in identical seed
values being used on each cold boot attempt.
As of commit 41f786c ("[settings] Add "unixtime" builtin setting to
expose the current time"), the current wall-clock time is always
available within the default build of iPXE. Use this time instead, to
introduce variability between cold boot attempts on the same host.
(Note that variability between different hosts is obtained by using
the MAC address as an additional seed value.)
This has no effect on the separate DRBG used by cryptographic code.

We have no way to force a link-layer restart in iPXE, and therefore no
way to explicitly trigger a restart of EAP authentication. If an iPXE
script has performed some action that requires such a restart
(e.g. registering a device such that the port VLAN assignment will be
changed), then the only means currently available to effect the
restart is to reboot the whole system. If iPXE is taking over a
physical link already used by a preceding bootloader, then even a
reboot may not work.
In the EAP model, the supplicant is a pure responder and never
initiates transmissions. EAPoL extends this to include an EAPoL-Start
packet type that may be sent by the supplicant to (re)trigger EAP.
Add support for sending EAPoL-Start packets at two-second intervals on
links that are open and have reached physical link-up, but for which
EAP has not yet completed. This allows "ifclose ; ifopen" to be used
to restart the EAP process.

Simplify the per-netdevice GuestInfo settings code by using
driver-private data to hold the settings block, instead of using a
separate allocation.
The settings block (if existent) will be automatically unregistered
when the parent network device settings block is unregistered, and no
longer needs to be separately freed. The guestinfo_net_remove()
function may therefore be omitted completely.

Simplify the LLDP code by using driver-private data to hold the LLDP
settings block, instead of using a separate allocation. This avoids
the need to maintain a list of LLDP settings blocks (since the LLDP
settings block pointer can always be obtained using netdev_priv()) and
obviates several failure paths.
Any recorded LLDP data is now freed when the network device is
unregistered, since there is no longer a dedicated reference counter
for the LLDP settings block. To minimise surprise, we also now
explicitly unregister the settings block. This is not strictly
necessary (since the block will be automatically unregistered when the
parent network device settings block is unregistered), but it
maintains symmetry between lldp_probe() and lldp_remove().
The overall reduction in the size of the LLDP code is around 15%.

Allow network upper-layer drivers (such as LLDP, which attaches to
each network device in order to provide a corresponding LLDP settings
block) to specify a size for private data, which will be allocated as
part of the network device structure (as with the existing private
data allocated for the underlying device driver).
This will allow network upper-layer drivers to be simplified by
omitting memory allocation and freeing code. If the upper-layer
driver requires a reference counter (e.g. for interface
initialisation), then it may use the network device's existing
reference counter, since this is now the reference counter for the
containing block of memory.

Some network device drivers use the trivial netdev_priv() helper
function while others use the netdev->priv pointer directly.
Standardise on direct use of netdev->priv, in order to free up the

We currently use "push $1f" within inline assembly to push the address
of the real-mode code fragment, relying on the assembler to treat this
as "pushl" for 32-bit code or "pushq" for 64-bit code.
As of binutils commit 5cc0077 ("x86: further adjust extend-to-32bit-
address conditions"), first included in binutils-2.41, this implicit
operand size is no longer calculated as expected and 64-bit builds
will fail with
Error: operand size mismatch for `push'
Fix by adding an explicit operand size to the "push" instruction.

Commit 3ef4f7e ("[console] Avoid overlap between special keys and
Unicode characters") renumbered the special key encoding to avoid
collisions with Unicode key values outside the ASCII range. This
change broke backwards compatibility with existing scripts that
specify key values using e.g. "prompt --key" or "menu --key".
Restore compatibility with existing scripts by tweaking the special
key encoding so that the relative key value (i.e. the delta from
KEY_MIN) is numerically equal to the old pre-Unicode key value, and by
modifying parse_key() to accept a relative key value.

A running link block timer holds a reference to the network device and
will prevent it from being freed until the timer expires. It is
impossible for free_netdev() to be called while the timer is still
running: the call to stop_timer() therein is therefore a no-op.
Stop the link block timer when the device is closed, to allow a
link-blocked device to be freed immediately upon unregistration of the
device. (Since link block state is updated in response to received
packets, the state is effectively undefined for a closed device: there
is therefore no reason to leave the timer running.)

The interface debug message values constructed by INTF_DBG() et al
rely on the interface being embedded within a containing object. This
assumption is not valid for the temporary outbound-only interfaces
constructed on the stack by intf_shutdown() and xfer_vredirect().
Formalise the notion of a temporary outbound-only interface as having
a NULL interface descriptor, and overload the "original interface
descriptor" field to contain a pointer to the original interface that
the temporary interface is shadowing.

The special key range (from KEY_MIN upwards) currently overlaps with
the valid range for Unicode characters, and therefore prohibits the
use of Unicode key values outside the ASCII range.
Create space for Unicode key values by moving the special keys to the
range immediately above the maximum valid Unicode character. This
allows the existing encoding of special keys as an efficiently packed
representation of the equivalent ANSI escape sequence to be maintained
almost as-is.
