Hi, All (especially OS PXE loader developers)

I'm sending this email to collect advice about whether to include the bug fix for Bugzilla 853 (https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=853) to UDK2018 or not.

The patch is to fix an input parameter check for PXE.Mtftp() protocol interface. If any OS PXE loader follows the incorrect logic in previous edk2 code, instead of the UEFI specification required logic, to use PXE.MTFTP() protocol, the PXE boot may be broken. Please check the Bugzilla for details.

We have validated the patch on some popular Windows/Linux Oss and it worked well.

Please tell me if you meet problem with this patch on your system, or have any objection to include this patch to UDK2018.


BestRegards
Fu Siyuan
