[dhcp] Accept BOOTP as well as DHCP

2008-09-25T00:35:15+00:00

[iscsi] Change default initiator name prefix to "iqn.2000-01.org.etherboot:"

2008-09-19T16:46:07+00:00

The domain etherboot.org was actually registered on 2000-01-09, not 2000-09-01. (To put it another way, it was registered on 1/9/2000 (US date format) rather than 1/9/2000 (sensible date format); this may illuminate the cause of the error.) "iqn.2000-09.org.etherboot:" is still valid as per RFC3720, but may be surprising to users, so change it to something less unexpected. Thanks to the anonymous contributor for pointing this one out.

[undi] Fill in ProtType correctly in PXENV_UNDI_ISR

2008-08-20T02:21:37+00:00

Determine the network-layer packet type and fill it in for UNDI clients. This is required by some NBPs such as emBoot's winBoot/i. This change requires refactoring the link-layer portions of the gPXE netdevice API, so that it becomes possible to strip the link-layer header without passing the packet up the network stack.

[dhcp] Do not restrict minimum retry time for ProxyDHCPREQUEST

2008-08-13T20:51:53+00:00

The ProxyDHCPREQUEST is a unicast packet, so the first request will almost always be lost due to not having the IP address in the ARP cache. If the minimum retry time is set to one second (as per commit ff2b6a5), then ProxyDHCP will time out and give up before managing to successfully transmit a request. The DHCP timers need to be reworked anyway, so this mild hack is acceptable for now.

[retry] Added configurable timeouts to retry timer

2008-08-12T00:05:26+00:00

New min_timeout and max_timeout fields in struct retry_timer allow users of this timer to set their own desired minimum and maximum timeouts, without being constrained to a single global minimum and maximum. Users of the timer can still elect to use the default global values by leaving the min_timeout and max_timeout fields as 0.

[iSCSI] Add support for mutual CHAP

2008-08-11T02:43:12+00:00

Allow initiator to verify target authentication using CHAP.

[pxe] If no ProxyDHCPACK exists, use DHCPACK for the fake ProxyDHCPACK packet

2008-08-02T02:03:42+00:00

WinPE seems to have a bug that causes it to always use the TFTP server IP address and filename from the ProxyDHCPACK packet, even if the ProxyDHCPACK packet doesn't exist. This causes it to end up attempting to fetch a file such as tftp://0.0.0.0/bootmgr.exe If we don't have a ProxyDHCPACK to use, we pretend that it was a copy of the DHCPACK packet. This works around the problem, and hopefully won't surprise any NBPs.

[dhcp] Work around a bug in Altiris RDP

2008-08-01T20:49:11+00:00

Altiris erroneously cares about the ordering of DHCP options, and will get confused if we don't construct them in the order it expects. This is observed (so far) only when attempting to deploy 64-bit Win2k3.

[ftp] Terminate processing after receiving an error

2008-07-30T19:27:09+00:00

When an error reply (not 1xx, 2xx or 3xx) was received, ftp_reply() invoked ftp_done() to close connections, but did not return, and the rest of code in this function could try to send commands to the closed control connection. Signed-off-by: Sergey Vlasov

[ftp] Cope with RETR completion prior to all data received

2008-07-30T19:22:49+00:00

Based on a patch contributed by Sergey Vlasov : In my testing with "qemu -net user" the 226 response to RETR was often received earlier than final packets of the data connection; this caused the received file to become truncated without any error indication. Fix this by adding an intermediate state FTP_TRANSFER between FTP_RETR and FTP_QUIT, so that the transfer is considered to be complete only when both the end of data connection is encountered and the final reply to the RETR command is received.
