Hi

I am trying to get https working with ipxe. I enabled HTTPS in config/general.h (#define DOWNLOAD_PROTO_HTTPS)and then compiled the efirom with following command.

make bin-x86_64-efi/80861521.efirom;

I flashed this binary to i350 flash (after padding adjusted to flash size).

However i get the following message during reboot

DRBG 0xdaf1bf90 instantiate
DRBG 0xdaf1bf90 could not get entropy input: Error 0x7f4ee083 (http://ipxe.org/7f4ee083)

Any further attempts to initiate https download results into following message and causes reboot(chain https:...)
DRBG 0xdaf1bf90 not valid
Could not start download: Invalid argument (http://ipxe.org/1c416082)


I am running this on intel i5-4402E.

Any ideas how to debug and fix this issue?

thanks
ms
iPXE fails to generate enough randomness to be happy, could you enable debug to see exactly where it fails?

make bin-x86_64-efi/80861521.efirom DEBUG=efi_entropy
