[build] Rename gPXE to iPXE

2010-04-19T22:43:39+00:00

Access to the gpxe.org and etherboot.org domains and associated resources has been revoked by the registrant of the domain. Work around this problem by renaming project from gPXE to iPXE, and updating URLs to match. Also update README, LOG and COPYRIGHTS to remove obsolete information. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown

[efi] Add an EFI_NETWORK_INTERFACE_IDENTIFIER_PROTOCOL interface

2009-01-12T19:11:30+00:00

This allegedly optional interface seems to be compulsory if you want EFI's PXE code to bother trying to use your network interface.

[efi] Provide component name protocol and device path protocol interfaces

2009-01-12T19:10:53+00:00

Include a minimal component name protocol so that the driver name shows up as something other than "" in the driver list, and a device path protocol so that the network interface shows up as a separate device in the device list, rather than being attached directly to the PCI device. Incidentally, the EFI component name protocol reaches new depths for signal-to-noise ratio in program code. A typical instance within the EFI development kit will use an additional 300 lines of code to provide slightly less functionality than GNU gettext achieves with three additional characters.

[efi] Update to latest UEFI headers

2008-11-18T21:54:51+00:00

[efi] Add basic implementation of EFI SIMPLE_NETWORK_PROTOCOL

2008-10-16T04:38:23+00:00

This implementation is tested and working, but not currently tied in to the EFI build.

[efi] Add EFI image format and basic runtime environment

2008-10-13T09:24:14+00:00

We have EFI APIs for CPU I/O, PCI I/O, timers, console I/O, user access and user memory allocation. EFI executables are created using the vanilla GNU toolchain, with the EXE header handcrafted in assembly and relocations generated by a custom efilink utility.

[efi] Add EFI headers from the EFI Development Kit (edk2)

2008-10-10T03:04:07+00:00

The intention is to include near-verbatim copies of the EFI headers required by gPXE. This is achieved using the import.pl script in src/include/gpxe/efi. Note that import.pl will modify any #include lines in each imported header to reflect its new location within the gPXE tree. It will also tidy up the file by removing carriage return characters and trailing whitespace.
