Hi again, This patch contains a gPXE network driver that can call into the EFI firmware's Simple Network Protocol (SNP) as a means to send and receive packets. It is essentially the EFI equivalent of the "undionly" driver.
I have tested this patch on an Apple Xserve (64-bit EFI), and a larger patch containing this code as well as some other improvements on both an IBM x3550 (64-bit EFI) and an Apple Mac Mini (32-bit EFI). I know that this one is a little bit bigger than the other patches I've sent, and I'm not 100% certain of coding style and commenting guidelines, but I tried my best. Feedback is certainly welcome. Thanks, Geoff VMware, Inc. is providing this patch to you under the terms of the GPL version 2 and any later version. This patch is provided as is, with no warranties or support. VMware disclaims all liability in connection with the use/inability to use this patch. Any use of the attached is considered acceptance of the above.
