Anyone? FWIW I've been doing at least 20 boots a day with this, 200-300 MiB at a time. Super stable. This is also tracked now https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2720 A ________________________________ From: devel@edk2.groups.io on behalf of Andrei Warkentin via groups.io Sent: Thursday, May 14, 2020 2:02 AM To: devel@edk2.groups.io Cc: maciej.rabeda@linux.intel.com ; jiaxin.wu@intel.com ; siyuan.fu@intel.com Subject: [edk2-devel] [edk2][PATCH 1/1] HttpBoot: handle servers which may FIN after file sizing in HttpBootLoadFile Python http.server seems to FIN after the first HEAD request to size the loaded file is completed and ACKed. What happens next is interesting. On low latency connections, the GET request to download may get sent after the server sends the FIN but before the client has a chance to process it. The net result is: - Server ignores GET - HttpBootLoadFile returns EFI_CONNECTION_FIN. Boot fails. In the other case, client handles the FIN before attempting the GET, so there's a proper three-way handshake as part of GET. The solution is to retry HttpBootLoadFile 2 times if it returns EFI_CONNECTION_FIN. This is because HttpBootLoadFile may issue up to 3 requests: HEAD/GET to get size and final GET to load. Some servers may send a FIN after each request. The first request (HEAD) is not supposed to fail this way, so only the two subsequent GET request may result in a FIN.
