[ipxe-devel] [PATCH] Export iPXE download protocols to chain loaded EFI binaries

[Jarrod Johnson]

In the same way iPXE exports its capabilities under BIOS in a way that
pxelinux.0 exploits to get better protocols than tftp, export capabilities
as a UEFI protocol so that other efi binaries may use it instead of tftp.
Can be used together with a patch submitted to elilo for one example:
