[block] Allow use of a non-default EFI SAN boot filename

2017-04-12T14:58:05+00:00

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"; Originally-implemented-by: Vishvananda Ishaya Abrams Signed-off-by: Michael Brown

[dhcp] Allow vendor class to be changed in DHCP requests

2017-03-20T11:58:59+00:00

Allow the DHCPv4 vendor class to be specified via the "vendor-class" setting. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown

[settings] Add "unixtime" builtin setting to expose the current time

2017-01-26T12:26:54+00:00

Expose the current wall-clock time (in seconds since the Epoch), since this is often useful in captured boot logs and can also be useful when checking unexpected X.509 certificate validation failures. Use a :uint32 setting to avoid Y2K38 rollover, thereby ensuring that this will eventually be somebody else's problem. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown

[settings] Allow settings blocks to specify a sibling ordering

2016-07-19T16:07:53+00:00

Allow settings blocks to provide an explicit default ordering between siblings, with lower precedence than the existing ${priority} setting. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown

[ipv6] Rename ipv6_scope to dhcpv6_scope

2016-07-16T11:42:08+00:00

The settings scope ipv6_scope refers specifically to IPv6 settings that have a corresponding DHCPv6 option. Rename to dhcpv6_scope to more accurately reflect this purpose. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown

[pci] Support systems with multiple PCI root bridges

2016-06-09T08:36:28+00:00

Extend the 16-bit PCI bus:dev.fn address to a 32-bit seg:bus:dev.fn address, assuming a segment value of zero in contexts where multiple segments are unsupported by the underlying data structures (e.g. in the iBFT or BOFM tables). Signed-off-by: Michael Brown

[settings] Re-add "uristring" setting type

2015-08-25T12:31:46+00:00

Commit 09b057c ("[settings] Remove "uristring" setting type") removed support for URI-encoded settings via the "uristring" setting type, on the basis that such encoding was no longer necessary to avoid problems with the command line parser. Other valid use cases for the "uristring" setting type do exist: for example, a password containing a '/' character expanded via chain http://username:${password:uristring}@server.name/boot.php Restore the existence of the "uristring" setting, avoiding the potentially large stack allocations that were used in the old code prior to commit 09b057c ("[settings] Remove "uristring" setting type").
