Fixed loading of ACPI tables on EFI (side effect was apparent memory
corruption ranging from unpredictable behavior to system reset).

iPXE adds Simple File System Protocol to loaded image handle, as side
effect it also adds Block IO protocol (according to comments, to work
around some bugs in EDK2). GRUB assumes that every device with Block IO
is disk and skips network initialization entirely. But iPXE Block IO
implementation is just a stub which always fails for every operation
so cannot be used. Attempt to detect and skip such devices.
We are using media ID which iPXE sets to "iPXE" and block IO size in
hope that no real device would announce 1B block ...

UEFI 2.6 9.3.6.4 File Path Media Device Path says that Path Name is
"A NULL-terminated Path string including directory and file names".
Strip final NULL from Path Name in each File Path node when constructing
full path. To be on safe side, strip all of them.
Fixes failure chainloading grub from grub, when loaded grub truncates
image path and does not find its grub.cfg.

This was triggered by commit ce95549cc54b5d6f494608a7c390dba3aab4fba7;
before it we built Path Name without trailing NULL, and apparently all
other bootloaders use single File Path node, thus not exposing this bug.
1. Do not assume block list and fragment are mutually exclusive. Squash
can pack file tail as fragment (unless -no-fragments is specified); so
check read offset and read either from block list or from fragments as
appropriate.
2. Support sparse files with zero blocks.
3. Fix fragment read - frag.offset is absolute fragment position,
not offset relative to ino.chunk.

In case of GRUB we put remapper after domain pages and not at 0x0.
In this case we use max_addr to put remapper. Unfortunately we increment
max_addr as well in this case resulting in virt mapping mapping page
at old max_addr and trying to boot using new max_addr.

According to EABI only STT_FUNC has convention of lowest bit indicating
execution mode. R_THM_{JUMP,CALL}* relocations are assumed to be pointing
to thumb mode unless they use STT_FUNC.
If ascent is bigger than height - 2, then we draw over character box but then
to clear cursor we only draw over character box. So trim ascent if necessarry.
These entries have placeholder for device name and so are useless for our
purpose. grub failed with something like
grub-install: error: failed to get canonical path of `systemd-1'.
When we see autofs entry, record it (to keep parent-child relationship) but
continue to look for real mount. If it is found, we process it as usual. If
only autofs entry exists, attempt to trigger mount by opening mount point
and retry. Mount point itself is then kept open to avoid timeout.
Recent systemd is by default using automount for /boot/efi so this should
become more popular problem on EFI systems.

The path returned by grub_efi_net_config has already been stripped for the
directory part extracted from cached bootp packet. We should just return the
result to avoild it be stripped again.
It fixed the problem that grub.efi as NBP image always looking for grub.cfg and
platform directory in upper folder rather than current one it gets loaded while
$prefix is empty. The behavior is inconsistent with other architecture and how
we would expect empty $prefix going to be in general.
The only exception to the general rule of empty $prefix is that when loaded
from platform directory itself, the platform part is stripped thus upper folder
is used for looking up files. It meets the case for how grub-mknetdir lay out
the files under tftp root directory, but also hide away this issue to be
identified as it appears to be just works.
Also fix possible memory leak by moving grub_efi_get_filename() call after
grub_efi_net_config().
EFI File Path Media Device Path is defined as NULL terminated string;
but chainloader built file paths without final NULL. This caused error

Apparently firmware failed verification with EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER which is
considered fatal error by PreLoader.

get_card_packet() from ofnet.c allocates a netbuff based on the device's MTU:
nb = grub_netbuff_alloc (dev->mtu + 64 + 2);
In the case when the MTU is large, and the received packet is
relatively small, this leads to allocation of significantly more memory,
than it's required. An example could be transmission of TFTP packets
with 0x400 blksize via a network card with 0x10000 MTU.
This patch implements a per-card receive buffer in a way similar to efinet.c,
and makes get_card_packet() allocate a netbuff of the received data size.

Network boot autoconfiguration sets default server to next server IP
(siaddr) from BOOTP/DHCP reply, but manual configuration using net_bootp
exports only server name. Unfortunately semantic of server name is not
clearly defined. BOOTP RFC 951 defines it only for client request, and
DHCP RFC 1541 only mentions it, without any implied usage. It looks like
this field is mostly empty in server replies.
Export next server IP as net_<interface>_next_server variable. This allows
grub configuration script to set $root/$prefix based on information obtained

Modern pvops linux kernels support a p2m list not covered by the

the virtual address the kernel is expecting the p2m list to be mapped
to.
In case the elf-note is set by the kernel don't place the p2m list
into the kernel mapping, but map it to the given address. This will

Currently multiboot2 protocol loads image exactly at address specified in
ELF or multiboot2 header. This solution works quite well on legacy BIOS
platforms. It is possible because memory regions are placed at predictable
addresses (though I was not able to find any spec which says that it is
strong requirement, so, it looks that it is just a goodwill of hardware
designers). However, EFI platforms are more volatile. Even if required
memory regions live at specific addresses then they are sometimes simply
not free (e.g. used by boot/runtime services on Dell PowerEdge R820 and
OVMF). This means that you are not able to just set up final image
destination on build time. You have to provide method to relocate image
contents to real load address which is usually different than load address
specified in ELF and multiboot2 headers.
This patch provides all needed machinery to do self relocation in image code.
First of all GRUB2 reads min_addr (min. load addr), max_addr (max. load addr),
align (required image alignment), preference (it says which memory regions are
preferred by image, e.g. none, low, high) from multiboot_header_tag_relocatable
header tag contained in binary (at this stage load addresses from multiboot2
and/or ELF headers are ignored). Later loader tries to fulfill request (not only
that one) and if it succeeds then it informs image about real load address via
multiboot_tag_load_base_addr tag. At this stage GRUB2 role is finished. Starting
from now executable must cope with relocations itself using whole static and
dynamic knowledge provided by boot loader.
This patch does not provide functionality which could do relocations using
ELF relocation data. However, I was asked by Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk and Vladimir
'phcoder' Serbinenko to investigate that thing. It looks that relevant machinery
could be added to existing code (including this patch) without huge effort.
Additionally, ELF relocation could live in parallel with self relocation provided
by this patch. However, during research I realized that first of all we should
establish the details how ELF relocatable image should look like and how it should
be build. At least to build proper test/example files.
So, this patch just provides support for self relocatable images. If ELF file
with relocs is loaded then GRUB2 complains loudly and ignores it. Support for
such files will be added later.
This patch was tested with Xen image which uses that functionality. However, this Xen
feature is still under development and new patchset will be released in about 2-3 weeks.

If image requested EFI boot services then skip multiboot2 memory maps.
Main reason for not providing maps is because they will likely be
invalid. We do a few allocations after filling them, e.g. for relocator
needs. Usually we do not care as we would have finished boot services.
If we keep boot services then it is easier/safer to not provide maps.
However, if image needs memory maps and they are not provided by bootloader
then it should get itself just before ExitBootServices() call.
