Michael Brown 72316b820d [image] Add the "imgdecrypt" command
Add the "imgdecrypt" command that can be used to decrypt a detached
encrypted data image using a cipher key obtained from a separate CMS
envelope image.  For example:

  # Create non-detached encrypted CMS messages
  #
  openssl cms -encrypt -binary -aes-256-gcm -recip client.crt \
              -in vmlinuz -outform DER -out vmlinuz.cms
  openssl cms -encrypt -binary -aes-256-gcm -recip client.crt \
              -in initrd.img -outform DER -out initrd.img.cms

  # Detach data from envelopes (using iPXE's contrib/crypto/cmsdetach)
  #
  cmsdetach vmlinuz.cms -d vmlinuz.dat -e vmlinuz.env
  cmsdetach initrd.img.cms -d initrd.img.dat -e initrd.img.env

and then within iPXE:

  #!ipxe
  imgfetch http://192.168.0.1/vmlinuz.dat
  imgfetch http://192.168.0.1/initrd.img.dat
  imgdecrypt vmlinuz.dat    http://192.168.0.1/vmlinuz.env

Michael Brown 97635eb71b [crypto] Generalise cms_signature to cms_message
There is some exploitable similarity between the data structures used
for representing CMS signatures and CMS encryption keys.  In both
cases, the CMS message fundamentally encodes a list of participants
(either message signers or message recipients), where each participant
has an associated certificate and an opaque octet string representing
the signature or encrypted cipher key.  The ASN.1 structures are not
identical, but are sufficiently similar to be worth exploiting: for
example, the SignerIdentifier and RecipientIdentifier data structures
are defined identically.

Rename data structures and functions, and add the concept of a CMS
message type.

Michael Brown 3b4d0cb555 [crypto] Pass image as parameter to CMS functions
The cms_signature() and cms_verify() functions currently accept raw
data pointers.  This will not be possible for cms_decrypt(), which
will need the ability to extract fragments of ASN.1 data from a
potentially large image.

Change cms_signature() and cms_verify() to accept an image as an input
parameter, and move the responsibility for setting the image trust
flag within cms_verify() since that now becomes a more natural fit.

Michael Brown 636ccb4ca5 [block] Allow for additional SAN boot parameters alongside filename
The drive specification alone does not necessarily contain enough
information to perform a SAN boot (or local disk boot) under UEFI.  If
the next-stage bootloader is installed in the EFI system partition
under a non-standard name (e.g. "\EFI\debian\grubx64.efi") then this
explicit boot filename must also be specified.

Generalise this concept to use a "SAN boot configuration parameters"
structure (currently containing only the optional explicit boot
filename), to allow for easy expansion to provide other parameters
such as the partition UUID or volume label.

Michael Brown 5b43181436 [efi] Support versions of shim that perform SBAT verification
The UEFI shim implements a fairly nicely designed revocation mechanism
designed around the concept of security generations.  Unfortunately
nobody in the shim community has thus far added the relevant metadata
to the Linux kernel, with the result that current versions of shim are
incapable of booting current versions of the Linux kernel.

Experience shows that there is unfortunately no point in trying to get
a fix for this upstreamed into shim.  We therefore default to working
around this undesirable behaviour by patching data read from the
"SbatLevel" variable used to hold SBAT configuration.

Michael Brown 28184b7c22 [efi] Add support for executing images via a shim
Add support for using a shim as a helper to execute an EFI image.
When a shim has been specified via shim(), the shim image will be
passed to LoadImage() instead of the selected EFI image and the
command line will be prepended with the name of the selected EFI
image.  The selected EFI image will be accessible to the shim via the
virtual filesystem as a hidden file.

Reduce the Secure Boot attack surface by removing, where possible, the
spurious requirement for a third party second stage loader binary such
as GRUB to be used solely in order to call the "shim lock protocol"
entry point.

Do not install the EFI PXE APIs when using a shim, since if shim finds
EFI_PXE_BASE_CODE_PROTOCOL on the loaded image's device handle then it
will attempt to download files afresh instead of using the files
already downloaded by iPXE and exposed via the EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM
protocol.  (Experience shows that there is no point in trying to get a
fix for this upstreamed into shim.)

Michael Brown c4a8d90387 [image] Generalise concept of selected image
Most image flags are independent values: any combination of flags may
be set for any image, and the flags for one image are independent of
the flags for any other image.  The "selected" flag does not follow
this pattern: at most one image may be marked as selected at any time.

When invoking a kernel via the UEFI shim, there will be multiple
"special" images: the selected kernel itself, the shim image, and
potentially a shim-signed GRUB binary to be used as a crutch to assist
shim in loading the kernel (since current versions of the UEFI shim
are not capable of directly loading a Linux kernel).

Remove the "selected" image flag and replace it with a general concept
of an image tag with the same semantics: a given tag may be assigned
to at most one image, an image may be found by its tag only while the
image is currently registered, and a tag will survive unregistration
and reregistration of an image (if it has not already been assigned to
a new image).  For visual consistency, also replace the current image
pointer with a current image tag.

The image pointer stored within the image tag holds only a weak
reference to the image, since the selection of an image should not
prevent that image from being freed.  (The strong reference to the
currently executing image is held locally within the execution scope
of image_exec(), and is logically separate from the current image
pointer.)

Michael Brown f9beb20e99 [image] Allow for images to be hidden from lists of all images
When invoking a kernel via the UEFI shim, the kernel (and potentially
also a helper binary such as GRUB) must be accessible via the virtual
filesystem exposed via EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM_PROTOCOL but must not be
present in the magic initrd constructed from all registered images.

Allow for images to be flagged as hidden, which will cause them to be
excluded from API-level lists of all images such as the virtual
filesystem directory contents, the magic initrd, or the Multiboot
module list.  Hidden images remain visible to iPXE commands including
"imgstat", which will show a "[HIDDEN]" flag for such images.

Michael Brown e72670ad7b [pxe] Avoid drawing menu items on bottom row of screen
Many consoles will scroll immediately upon drawing a character in the
rightmost column of the bottom row of the display, in order to be able

This causes PXE menus to display incorrectly.  Specifically, pressing

Michael Brown 5a2fa6040e [autoboot] Include VLAN tag in filter for identifying autoboot device
When chainloading iPXE from a VLAN device, the MAC address of the
loaded image's device handle will match the MAC address of the trunk
device created by iPXE, and the autoboot process will then erroneously
consider the trunk device to be an autoboot device.

Fix by recording the VLAN tag along with the MAC address, and treating
the VLAN tag as part of the filter used to match the MAC address

Michael Brown 1844aacc83 [uri] Retain original encodings for path, query, and fragment fields
iPXE decodes any percent-encoded characters during the URI parsing
stage, thereby allowing protocol implementations to consume the raw
field values directly without further decoding.

When reconstructing a URI string for use in an HTTP request line, the
percent-encoding is currently reapplied in a reversible way: we
guarantee that our reconstructed URI string could be decoded to give
the same raw field values.

This technically violates RFC3986, which states that "URIs that differ
in the replacement of a reserved character with its corresponding
percent-encoded octet are not equivalent".  Experiments show that
several HTTP server applications will attach meaning to the choice of
whether or not a particular character was percent-encoded, even when
the percent-encoding is unnecessary from the perspective of parsing
the URI into its component fields.

Fix by storing the originally encoded substrings for the path, query,
and fragment fields and using these original encoded versions when
reconstructing a URI string.  The path field is also stored as a
decoded string, for use by protocols such as TFTP that communicate
using raw strings rather than URI-encoded strings.  All other fields
(such as the username and password) continue to be stored only in
their decoded versions since nothing ever needs to know the originally
encoded versions of these fields.

Michael Brown 84d406ccf4 [block] Allow use of a non-default EFI SAN boot filename
Some older operating systems (e.g. RHEL6) use a non-default filename
on the root disk and rely on setting an EFI variable to point to the

Fix by allowing a non-default filename to be specified via the
"sanboot --filename" option or the "san-filename" setting.  For
example:

  sanboot --filename \efi\redhat\grub.efi \

Michael Brown 7cfdd769aa [block] Describe all SAN devices via ACPI tables
Describe all SAN devices via ACPI tables such as the iBFT.  For tables
that can describe only a single device (i.e. the aBFT and sBFT), one
table is installed per device.  For multi-device tables (i.e. the
iBFT), all devices are described in a single table.

An underlying SAN device connection may be closed at the time that we
need to construct an ACPI table.  We therefore introduce the concept
of an "ACPI descriptor" which enables the SAN boot code to maintain an
opaque pointer to the underlying object, and an "ACPI model" which can
build tables from a list of such descriptors.  This separates the
lifecycles of ACPI descriptions from the lifecycles of the block
device interfaces, and allows for construction of the ACPI tables even
if the block device interface has been closed.

For a multipath SAN device, iPXE will wait until sufficient
information is available to describe all devices but will not wait for
all paths to connect successfully.  For example: with a multipath
iSCSI boot iPXE will wait until at least one path has become available
and name resolution has completed on all other paths.  We do this
since the iBFT has to include IP addresses rather than DNS names.  We
will commence booting without waiting for the inactive paths to either
become available or close; this avoids unnecessary boot delays.

Note that the Linux kernel will refuse to accept an iBFT with more
than two NIC or target structures.  We therefore describe only the
NICs that are actually required in order to reach the described
targets.  Any iBFT with at most two targets is therefore guaranteed to
describe at most two NICs.

Michael Brown fbc4ba4b4e [build] Fix the REQUIRE_SYMBOL mechanism
At some point in the past few years, binutils became more aggressive
at removing unused symbols.  To function as a symbol requirement, a
relocation record must now be in a section marked with @progbits and
must not be in a section which gets discarded during the link (either
via --gc-sections or via /DISCARD/).

Update REQUIRE_SYMBOL() to generate relocation records meeting these
criteria.  To minimise the impact upon the final binary size, we use
existing symbols (specified via the REQUIRING_SYMBOL() macro) as the
relocation targets where possible.  We use R_386_NONE or R_X86_64_NONE
relocation types to prevent any actual unwanted relocation taking
place.  Where no suitable symbol exists for REQUIRING_SYMBOL() (such
as in config.c), the macro PROVIDE_REQUIRING_SYMBOL() can be used to
generate a one-byte-long symbol to act as the relocation target.

If there are versions of binutils for which this approach fails, then
the fallback will probably involve killing off REQUEST_SYMBOL(),
redefining REQUIRE_SYMBOL() to use the current definition of
REQUEST_SYMBOL(), and postprocessing the linked ELF file with
something along the lines of "nm -u | wc -l" to check that there are
no undefined symbols remaining.

Michael Brown 1c34ca70d1 [ping] Allow termination after a specified number of packets
Add the "-c <count>" option to the "ping" command, allowing for
automatic termination after a specified number of packets.

When a number of packets is specified:

  - if a serious error (i.e. length mismatch or content mismatch)
    occurs, then the ping will be immediately terminated with the relevant
    status code;

  - if at least one response is received successfully, and all errors
    are non-serious (i.e. timeouts or out-of-sequence responses), then
    the ping will be terminated after the final response (or timeout)
    with a success status;

  - if no responses are received successfully, then the ping will be
    terminated after the final timeout with ETIMEDOUT.

If no number of packets is specified, then the ping will continue
until manually interrupted.

Michael Brown 721a492020 [lotest] Discard packets arriving on the incorrect network device
Commit 24bbaf6 ("[lotest] Allow loopback testing on shared networks")
introduced a regression in which loopback testing packets would be
accepted from any network device.  This produces unexpected results,
such as VLAN loopback testing succeeding even when incorrectly using
the underlying trunk device as either transmitter or receiver.

Fix by discarding any loopback testing packets which arrive on a
network device other than the current loopback testing receiver.
