Michael Brown 08fcb0e8fb [eap] Add support for the MD5-Challenge authentication type
RFC 3748 states that support for MD5-Challenge is mandatory for EAP
implementations.  The MD5 and CHAP code is already included in the
default build since it is required by iSCSI, and so this does not
substantially increase the binary size.

Michael Brown c6226f104e [eap] Add support for sending an EAP identity
Allow the ${netX/username} setting to be used to specify an EAP
identity to be returned in response to a Request-Identity, and provide
a mechanism for responding with a NAK to indicate which authentication
types we support.

If no identity is specified then fall back to the current behaviour of
not sending any Request-Identity response, so that switches will time
out and switch to MAC Authentication Bypass (MAB) if applicable.

Michael Brown 1bd01b761f [eapol] Delay EAPoL-Start while waiting for EAP to complete
EAP exchanges may take a long time to reach a final status, especially
when relying upon MAC Authentication Bypass (MAB).  Our current
behaviour of sending EAPoL-Start every few seconds until a final
status is obtained can prevent these exchanges from ever completing.

Fix by redefining the EAP supplicant state to allow EAPoL-Start to be
suppressed: either temporarily (while waiting for a full EAP exchange
to complete, in which case we need to eventually resend EAPoL-Start if
the final Success or Failure packet is lost), or permanently (while
waiting for the potentially very long MAC Authentication Bypass
timeout period).

Michael Brown 8b14652e50 [eapol] Send EAPoL-Start packets to trigger EAP authentication
We have no way to force a link-layer restart in iPXE, and therefore no
way to explicitly trigger a restart of EAP authentication.  If an iPXE
script has performed some action that requires such a restart
(e.g. registering a device such that the port VLAN assignment will be
changed), then the only means currently available to effect the
restart is to reboot the whole system.  If iPXE is taking over a
physical link already used by a preceding bootloader, then even a
reboot may not work.

In the EAP model, the supplicant is a pure responder and never
initiates transmissions.  EAPoL extends this to include an EAPoL-Start
packet type that may be sent by the supplicant to (re)trigger EAP.

Add support for sending EAPoL-Start packets at two-second intervals on
links that are open and have reached physical link-up, but for which
EAP has not yet completed.  This allows "ifclose ; ifopen" to be used
to restart the EAP process.

Michael Brown cc1e27e525 [lldp] Use driver-private data to hold LLDP settings block
Simplify the LLDP code by using driver-private data to hold the LLDP
settings block, instead of using a separate allocation.  This avoids
the need to maintain a list of LLDP settings blocks (since the LLDP
settings block pointer can always be obtained using netdev_priv()) and
obviates several failure paths.

Any recorded LLDP data is now freed when the network device is
unregistered, since there is no longer a dedicated reference counter
for the LLDP settings block.  To minimise surprise, we also now
explicitly unregister the settings block.  This is not strictly
necessary (since the block will be automatically unregistered when the
parent network device settings block is unregistered), but it
maintains symmetry between lldp_probe() and lldp_remove().

The overall reduction in the size of the LLDP code is around 15%.

Michael Brown ae4e85bde9 [netdevice] Allocate private data for each network upper-layer driver
Allow network upper-layer drivers (such as LLDP, which attaches to
each network device in order to provide a corresponding LLDP settings
block) to specify a size for private data, which will be allocated as
part of the network device structure (as with the existing private
data allocated for the underlying device driver).

This will allow network upper-layer drivers to be simplified by
omitting memory allocation and freeing code.  If the upper-layer
driver requires a reference counter (e.g. for interface
initialisation), then it may use the network device's existing
reference counter, since this is now the reference counter for the
containing block of memory.

Michael Brown 6701d91c50 [netdevice] Stop link block timer when device is closed
A running link block timer holds a reference to the network device and
will prevent it from being freed until the timer expires.  It is
impossible for free_netdev() to be called while the timer is still
running: the call to stop_timer() therein is therefore a no-op.

Stop the link block timer when the device is closed, to allow a
link-blocked device to be freed immediately upon unregistration of the
device.  (Since link block state is updated in response to received
packets, the state is effectively undefined for a closed device: there
is therefore no reason to leave the timer running.)

Michael Brown 8f1c120119 [dhcp] Unregister ProxyDHCP and PXEBS settings on a successful DHCPACK
When a DHCP transaction does not result in the registration of a new
"proxydhcp" or "pxebs" settings block, any existing settings blocks
are currently left unaltered.

This can cause surprising behaviour.  For example: when chainloading
iPXE, the "proxydhcp" and "pxebs" settings blocks may be prepopulated
using cached values from the previous PXE bootloader.  If iPXE
performs a subsequent DHCP request, then the DHCP or ProxyDHCP servers
may choose to respond differently to iPXE.  The response may choose to
omit the ProxyDHCP or PXEBS stages, in which case no new "proxydhcp"
or "pxebs" settings blocks may be registered.  This will result in
iPXE using a combination of both old and new DHCP responses.

Fix by assuming that a successful DHCPACK effectively acquires
ownership of the "proxydhcp" and "pxebs" settings blocks, and that any
existing settings blocks should therefore be unregistered.

Michael Brown 2733c4763a [iscsi] Limit maximum transfer size to MaxBurstLength
We currently specify only the iSCSI default value for MaxBurstLength
and ignore any negotiated value, since our internal block device API
allows only for receiving directly into caller-allocated buffers and
so we have no intrinsic limit on burst length.

A conscientious target may however refuse to attempt a transfer that

limit the maximum number of blocks per transfer as reported by the

Michael Brown dc16de3204 [lldp] Add support for the Link Layer Discovery Protocol
Add support for recording LLDP packets and exposing TLV values via the
settings mechanism.  LLDP settings are encoded as

  ${netX.lldp/<prefix>.<type>.<index>.<offset>.<length>}

where

  <type> is the TLV type

  <offset> is the starting offset within the TLV value

  <length> is the length (or zero to read the from <offset> to the end)

  <prefix>, if it has a non-zero value, is the subtype byte string of
  length <offset> to match at the start of the TLV value, up to a
  maximum matched length of 4 bytes

  <index> is the index of the entry matching <type> and <prefix> to be
  accessed, with zero indicating the first matching entry

The <prefix> is designed to accommodate both matching of the OUI
within an organization-specific TLV (e.g. 0x0080c2 for IEEE 802.1
TLVs) and of a subtype byte as found within many TLVs.

This encoding allows most LLDP values to be extracted easily.  For
example

  System name: ${netX.lldp/5.0.0.0:string}

  System description: ${netX.lldp/6.0.0.0:string}

  Port description: ${netX.lldp/4.0.0.0:string}

Michael Brown 8450fa4a7b [dhcp] Ignore DHCPNAK unless originating from the selected DHCP server
RFC 2131 leaves undefined the behaviour of the client in response to a
DHCPNAK that comes from a server other than the selected DHCP server.

A substantial amount of online documentation suggests using multiple
independent DHCP servers with non-overlapping ranges in the same
subnet in order to provide some minimal redundancy.  Experimentation
shows that in this setup, at least ISC dhcpd will send a DHCPNAK in
response to the client's DHCPREQUEST for an address that is not within
the range defined on that server.  (Since the requested address does
lie within the subnet defined on that server, this will happen
regardless of the "authoritative" parameter.)  The client will
therefore receive a DHCPACK from the selected DHCP server along with
one or more DHCPNAKs from each of the non-selected DHCP servers.

Filter out responses from non-selected DHCP servers before checking
for a DHCPNAK, so that these arguably spurious DHCPNAKs will not cause
iPXE to return to the discovery state.

Continue to check for DHCPNAK before filtering out responses for
non-selected lease addresses, since experimentation shows that the
DHCPNAK will usually have an empty yiaddr field.

Michael Brown c4c03e5be8 [netdevice] Allow duplicate MAC addresses
Many laptops now include the ability to specify a "system-specific MAC
address" (also known as "pass-through MAC"), which is supposed to be
used for both the onboard NIC and for any attached docking station or
other USB NIC.  This is intended to simplify interoperability with
software or hardware that relies on a MAC address to recognise an
individual machine: for example, a deployment server may associate the
MAC address with a particular operating system image to be deployed.
This therefore creates legitimate situations in which duplicate MAC
addresses may exist within the same system.

As described in commit 98d09a1 ("[netdevice] Avoid registering
duplicate network devices"), the Xen netfront driver relies on the
rejection of duplicate MAC addresses in order to inhibit registration
of the emulated PCI devices that a Xen PV-HVM guest will create to
shadow each of the paravirtual network devices.

Move the code that rejects duplicate MAC addresses from the network
device core to the Xen netfront driver, to allow for the existence of
duplicate MAC addresses in non-Xen setups.

Michael Brown 47af48012e [netdevice] Separate concept of scope ID from network device name index
The network device index currently serves two purposes: acting as a
sequential index for network device names ("net0", "net1", etc), and
acting as an opaque unique integer identifier used in socket address
scope IDs.

There is no particular need for these usages to be linked, and it can
lead to situations in which devices are named unexpectedly.  For
example: if a system has two network devices "net0" and "net1", a VLAN
is created as "net1-42", and then a USB NIC is connected, then the USB
NIC will be named "net3" rather than the expected "net2" since the
VLAN device "net1-42" will have consumed an index.

Separate the usages: rename the "index" field to "scope_id" (matching
its one and only use case), and assign the name without reference to
the scope ID by finding the first unused name.  For consistency,
assign the scope ID by similarly finding the first unused scope ID.

Michael Brown d879c8e4d9 [efi] Provide VLAN configuration protocol
UEFI implements VLAN support within the Managed Network Protocol (MNP)
driver, which may create child VLAN devices automatically based on
stored UEFI variables.  These child devices do not themselves provide
a raw-packet interface via EFI_SIMPLE_NETWORK_PROTOCOL, and may be
consumed only via the EFI_MANAGED_NETWORK_PROTOCOL interface.

The device paths constructed for these child devices may conflict with
those for the EFI_SIMPLE_NETWORK_PROTOCOL instances that iPXE attempts
to install for its own VLAN devices.  The upshot is that creating an
iPXE VLAN device (e.g. via the "vcreate" command) will fail if the
UEFI Managed Network Protocol has already created a device for the
same VLAN tag.

Fix by providing our own EFI_VLAN_CONFIG_PROTOCOL instance on the same
device handle as EFI_SIMPLE_NETWORK_PROTOCOL.  This causes the MNP
driver to treat iPXE's device as supporting hardware VLAN offload, and
it will therefore not attempt to install its own instance of the
protocol.

Michael Brown 1a7317e7d4 [tls] Generate master secret at point of sending ClientKeyExchange
The master secret is currently constructed upon receiving the
ServerHello message.  This precludes the use of key exchange
mechanisms such as Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman (DHE), which require a
ServerKeyExchange message to exchange additional key material before
the pre-master secret and master secret can be constructed.

Allow for the use of such cipher suites by deferring generation of the
master secret until the point of sending the ClientKeyExchange
message.

Michael Brown 007d3cb800 [crypto] Simplify internal HMAC API
Simplify the internal HMAC API so that the key is provided only at the
point of calling hmac_init(), and the (potentially reduced) key is
stored as part of the context for later use by hmac_final().

This simplifies the calling code, and avoids the need for callers such
as TLS to allocate a potentially variable length block in order to
retain a copy of the unmodified key.

Michael Brown 8f5fc16143 [ipv6] Ignore SLAAC on prefixes with an incompatible prefix length
Experience suggests that routers are often misconfigured to advertise
SLAAC even on prefixes that do not have a SLAAC-compatible prefix
length.  iPXE will currently treat this as an error, resulting in the
prefix being ignored completely.

Handle this misconfiguration by ignoring the autonomous address flag
when the prefix length is unsuitable for SLAAC.

Michael Brown 2acdc92994 [dns] Always start DNS queries using the first configured DNS server
We currently define the active DNS server as a global variable.  All
queries will start by attempting to contact the active DNS server, and
the active DNS server will be changed only if we fail to get a
response.  This effectively treats the DNS server list as expressing a
weak preference ordering: we will try servers in order, but once we
have found a working server we will stick with that server for as long
as it continues to respond to queries.

Some sites are misconfigured to hand out DNS servers that do not have
a consistent worldview.  For example: the site may hand out two DNS
server addresses, the first being an internal DNS server (which is
able to resolve names in private DNS domains) and the second being a
public DNS server such as 8.8.8.8 (which will correctly return
NXDOMAIN for any private DNS domains).  This type of configuration is
fundamentally broken and should never be used, since any DNS resolver
performing a query for a name within a private DNS domain may obtain a
spurious NXDOMAIN response for a valid private DNS name.

Work around these broken configurations by treating the DNS server
list as expressing a strong preference ordering, and always starting
DNS queries from the first server in the list (rather than maintaining
a global concept of the active server).  This will have the debatable
benefit of converting permanent spurious NXDOMAIN errors into
transient spurious NXDOMAIN errors, which can at least be worked
around at a higher level (e.g. by retrying a download in a loop within
an iPXE script).

The cost of always starting DNS queries from the first server in the
list is a slight delay introduced when the first server is genuinely
unavailable.  This should be negligible in practice since DNS queries
are relatively infrequent and the failover expiry time is short.

Treating the DNS server list as a preference ordering is permitted by
the language of RFC 2132, which defines DHCP option 6 as a list in
which "[DNS] servers SHOULD be listed in order of preference".  No
specification defines a precise algorithm for how this preference
order should be applied in practice: this new approach seems as good
as any.
