[syslinux] [PATCH] nictype.c32: PXELINUX module to display UNDI NIC bus type...

[Torgeir.Wulfsberg at kongsberg.com]

Nevermind sha0!

I managed to modify nictype.c to work the way I asked for in the last e-mail.

Added something like this.
_________________________________________________________________
char *bootif_str;
char *bootifcommand_str;
char delims[] = ",";
char *result = NULL;

 if (!strncmp(argv[0], "--bootif", sizeof "--bootif")) {
        if (arg + 1 == argc || !argv[1]) {
        fprintf(stderr, "--bootif args not provided\n");
        return usage();
        }
        bootif_str = argv[1];
        ++arg;
        ++argv;
        continue;
    }

    if (!strncmp(argv[0], "--bootifcommand", sizeof "--bootifcommand")) {
        if (arg + 1 == argc || !argv[1]) {
        fprintf(stderr, "--bootifcommand args not provided\n");
        return usage();
        }
        bootifcommand_str = argv[1];
        ++arg;
        ++argv;
        continue;
    }

    // split --bootif 102020202,120020202 from pxelinux label
    // compare strings, boot bootif command if match found
    result = strtok(bootif_str, delims);
    while( result != NULL ) {

        if (strncmp(result, vvvvdddd, sizeof vvvvdddd) == 0 ) {
            printf("Found match... Running command '%s'...\n", bootifcommand_str);
            syslinux_run_command(bootifcommand_str);
        }
        result = strtok( NULL, delims );
    }

_________________________________________________________________

Now I can have this syntax from pxelinux. Just the way I had in mind.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
label install
com32 nictype.c32
append --config --bootif 10222100,10222101,10222102 --bootifcommand images/pxe/ipxe/ipxe.kpxe.0 --fallbackcommand images/pxe/ipxe/ipxe.pxe.0

Hello Shao!

Did not know that :) Okey then, that worked great.
Knowing, THAT works....

Could't we just have this from pxelinux instead? Dont need any config files at all?

label install
com32 nictype.c32
append --if_vendor_id 00100222 --boot_this ipxe.pxe.0 --or_fallback_to undionly.kpxe.0

Where "--if_vendor_id" tries to match that vendor id we sent as an argument "00100222" and "--boot_this" executes "syslinux_run_command("ipxe.pxe.0")" or fallback to "syslinux_run_command("undionly.kpxe.0")"

Does that makes any sense?

Hello again, Torgeir.

I'm glad if you enjoy nictype.c32.

You don't need to modify it at all, as you can use the --fallback to execute
undionly.kpxe:

LABEL install
  COM32 nictype.c32
  APPEND --config --fallback undionly.0

Simply rename undionly.kpxe to undionly.0, then PXELINUX will auto-detect it
as a PXE image.  That way, you don't need your nictype.fallback file at all.
