* [efi] Add support for driving EFI_MANAGED_NETWORK_PROTOCOL devicesMichael Brown2024-03-251-52/+2Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We want exclusive access to the network device, both for performance reasons and because we perform operations such as EAPoL that affect the entire link. We currently drive the network card via either a native hardware driver or via the SNP or NII/UNDI interfaces, both of which grant us this exclusive access. Add an alternative driver that drives the network card non-exclusively via the EFI_MANAGED_NETWORK_PROTOCOL interface. This can function as a fallback for situations where neither SNP nor NII/UNDI interfaces are functional, and also opens up the possibility of non-destructively installing a temporary network device over which to download the autoexec.ipxe script.

* [efi] Bind to only the topmost instance of the SNP or NII protocolsMichael Brown2023-01-231-30/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | UEFI has the mildly annoying habit of installing copies of the EFI_SIMPLE_NETWORK_PROTOCOL instance on the IPv4 and IPv6 child device handles. This can cause iPXE's SNP driver to attempt to bind to a copy of the EFI_SIMPLE_NETWORK_PROTOCOL that iPXE itself provided on a different handle. Fix by refusing to bind to an SNP (or NII) handle if there exists another instance of the same protocol further up the device path (on the basis that we always want to bind to the highest possible device).

* [efi] Remove raw EFI_HANDLE values from debug messagesMichael Brown2015-08-271-12/+12
| | | | | | | | | The raw EFI_HANDLE value is almost never useful to know, and simply adds noise to the already verbose debug messages. Improve the legibility of debug messages by using only the name generated by efi_handle_name(). Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>
* [legal] Relicense files under GPL2_OR_LATER_OR_UBDLMichael Brown2015-03-021-1/+5

* [efi] Include NII driver within "snp" and "snponly" build targetsMichael Brown2014-10-171-0/+41
| | | | | | | | | End users almost certainly don't care whether the underlying interface is SNP or NII/UNDI. Try to minimise surprise and unnecessary documentation by including the NII driver whenever the SNP driver is requested. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>

* [efi] Use efi_handle_name() instead of efi_handle_devpath_text()Michael Brown2014-07-311-3/+3

* [efi] Rewrite SNP NIC driverMichael Brown2014-07-081-144/+2Star
| | | | | | | | | Rewrite the SNP NIC driver to use non-blocking and deferrable transmissions, to provide link status detection, to provide information about the underlying (PCI) hardware device, and to avoid unnecessary I/O buffer allocations during receive polling.
