By OUI == 00:23:ae and flags == 0xdc1b, detect select hardware.
On select platforms (Dell OptiPlex 760, Dell OptiPlex 960; perhaps
more), the interrupt appears to go "deaf" after a few seconds. By
matching MAC OUI and flags value, force polling on these select
platforms. I'm not sure if there's any better data available that
shallow in the core. I believe PCI IDs can be fetched with functions

debug.c32: Dynamically enable/disable debug code at runtime
It's useful to be able to enable (and disable) debug code at runtime,
particularly for allowing users that are unable to build their own
Syslinux releases the chance to provide useful debugging output.
For example, say a user reports trouble with their PXE stack but doesn't
have a development environment setup to turn on the debug code
themselves. With this change you can simply request that they do,
debug.c32 -e pxe_call unload_pxe open_file
to enable the debug in those functions. By only turning on code in
specific functions we reduce the chance of disrupting the buggy
behaviour and improve the signal to noise ratio for print statements.
To disable debug code use the -d flag,
debug.c32 -d pxe_call
To use this new feature simply do,
if (syslinux_debug_enabled) {
debug1();
debug2();
....
}
from within the function you wish to add debug code. Note that this
feature is not limited to print statements - you can put any code within
the conditional, such as verifying a checksum or checking for memory
leaks.
The plan is to leave the dynamic debug code built in for all prereleases
and to turn it off for final releases.
People may still want to build with all dprintf() statements enabled,
and so a new symbol, DYNAMIC_DEBUG, was introduced rather than
repurposing the old DEBUG, DEBUG_STDIO and DEBUG_PORT symbols.

cli: don't disable linewrap when redrawing the cmdline
It messes things up when we want to use printf(), for example when
printing labels after the user has hit the TAB key.
This fixes a bug where labels would be printed on a single line on the
screen (with some being displayed off screen) when they should have been
printed across multiple lines.
I can't think of a reason to disable linerap when redrawing the command
line - so let's not.

PATH: use a linked list internally
In retrospect, choosing the colon character as the entry separator for
the PATH directive was not a smart move, as that character is also used
in TFTP-style paths. This conflict manifests as PXELINUX being unable to
find and load files.
An example dnsmasq log looks like,
dnsmasq-tftp: sent /arch/boot/syslinux/lpxelinux.0 to 192.168.0.90
dnsmasq-tftp: file /arch/ldlinux.c32 not found
dnsmasq-tftp: file /arch//ldlinux.c32 not found

dnsmasq-tftp: error 0 No error, file close received from 192.168.0.90
dnsmasq-tftp: failed sending /arch//boot/syslinux/ldlinux.c32 to 192.168.0.90

dnsmasq-tftp: file /arch/libcom32.c32 not found
dnsmasq-tftp: file /arch//arch//boot/syslinux/libcom32.c32 not found
The last line of the log is the indication that there's a problem.
Internally, Syslinux adds the location of ldlinux.c32 to PATH by
querying the current working directory once ldlinux.c32 is successfully
loaded. Under PXELINUX that means the initial PATH string will be,
"::/arch/boot/syslinux/"
The PATH parsing code doesn't know how to correctly parse the "::"
string and hence, the file is searched for relative to the 210 dhcp
option directory - /arch/.
Implement PATH with a linked list which *greatly* simplifies the path
code, and means we no longer have to parse strings backwards and
forwards.

commit
be5a345d385d ("font: load data as a single block") cleaned up the
loop for reading into the font buffer but made the mistake of dropping
the assignment to 'p', which means that the _fread() call is writing
through a garbage pointer. Since 'p' was only used to keep track while

Also delete the unused variable 'i'.

linux: Clear up error message
Passing opt.device to perror() in do_open_file() results in confusing
error messages, as Jack reports,
Last night, I was trying to install syslinux (5.01) to a SD card of
mine, writing to a subdirectory to keep the layout neat:
syslinux-5.01/linux# ./syslinux -i -d /boot /dev/mmcblk0p1
/dev/mmcblk0p1: No such file or directory
The message is coming from do_open_file() in syslinux.c: the call to
open() fails because the containing directory isn't present, and then it
calls perror(opt.device).
We should instead be passing 'name' to perror() so that we know _which_
file doesn't exist.

Fix support for Linux kernel images with no protected mode code
Some kernel images use the Linux kernel boot protocol and header
structure, but do not actually have any protected-mode code. For
instance, grub's 1024-byte lnxboot.img consists of 1024 real-mode bytes
and 0 protected-mode bytes; you can concatenate it with a full grub
core.img to produce a self-contained bootable kernel, but you can also
use it standalone as the kernel with the core.img loaded as an initrd.
syslinux 4 supports this, but it no longer works with syslinux 5: the
memmap functions do not correctly handle a request to work with a 0-byte
region. With lnxboot.img, this would cause syslinux to bail because it
thinks it has no space at the 1M load location but cannot relocate
lnxboot.img. (In bailing, it gives the confusing error message "Bad
file descriptor", not because that error actually occurred when
attempting to boot the kernel, but because errno has that value on entry
to syslinux_boot_linux and nothing clears or sets it.)
Fix the regression by handling the corner case of no protected-mode code
explicitly.

With the introduction of commit
aa7dd29db684 ("ldlinux: Pass config

since it interfered with the filesystem-specific open_config()

syslinux_config_file() no longer works if we explicitly pass a

The logical place to keep ConfigName in sync is in parse_config_file()
