Boot URLs handed to nodes always carried an explicit :80 even when the HTTP
server listens on the default port. grub2.pm already omits the port when it is
80; make the xNBA, genesis and DHCP boot URLs consistent with it.
$portsuffix is empty when site.httpport is unset or 80 and ":<port>" otherwise,
so a non-default port is unchanged. Covers the ISC and Kea paths in dhcp.pm,
xnba.pm, mknb.pm, and the Kea xNBA client classes in BootPolicy.pm.
dhcp_boot_policy.t and mknb_xcatd_address.t follow the new URLs and gain cases
for a non-default and an unset port. The floating-address guard in
mknb_xcatd_address.t also drops :80 so that it keeps matching.

nodeset aborted with "Unable to find pxelinux.0 from syslinux" when neither
the copy under the tftp directory nor the one under XCATROOT existed. Only
legacy BIOS clients chain pxelinux and not every distribution still ships
syslinux, so a UEFI-only environment could not run nodeset at all.
Copy pxelinux.0 when it is available and warn, rather than fail, when it is not.
Recovered from the unmerged lenovobuild branch (4f0a5106), which skipped
silently; warn so the missing loader is still reported.

The BIOS (pcfg) boot config writes the kernel BOOTIF as `${netX/machyp}`, a
legacy gPXE spelling, while the UEFI (ucfg) config for the same node already
uses the iPXE-native `${netX/mac:hexhyp}`. xNBA is built from iPXE, whose
documented format is `mac:hexhyp`.
This is a consistency / standards-compliance alignment, not a fix for broken
behaviour: the shipped xNBA still honours the old `machyp` alias -- confirmed
by a real legacy-BIOS PXE boot, which came up fine with the stock spelling.
The change brings the BIOS path in line with the UEFI path and the documented
iPXE syntax, so both paths use one form and neither relies on a deprecated
gPXE alias.
Validated on a throwaway EL9 xCAT cluster: a legacy-BIOS client PXE-booted
with the patched config and genesis came up.
Recovered from the unmerged lenovobuild branch (original 85ce5b7e).

When all addkcmdline options have R:: prefix (persistent options for
the installed OS), the volatile check in xnba.pm and pxe.pm would fail
because volatile was undefined. This left the original R::-prefixed
string in the netboot config instead of stripping it.
The fix ensures we always use the volatile portion after calling
splitkcmdline, even if it's empty. Persistent (R::) options are
handled separately by Template.pm via PERSKCMDLINE for the installed
OS bootloader.
Fixes#7442
* Make disjoint mode working when service node up (inittime=1), and in the time not run in parallel to avoid access DB too much
* For shared tftp, nothing need to be done in AAsn
2, handle 'disjoint' in preprocess method, to make sure that no request will be sent to SN which does not manage the nodes.
3, refine 'stat' to make sure it could query unmanaged nodes on-demand.
* Fix#3087: nodeset improvement - using multi-process to parallelize
- before deliver the request to xcatd, we can split the request to multiple sub-requests which contains different noderange
- in that, xcatd could hanle those sub-requests in parallel, just like some issue multiple commands.
* refine according to the review comments:
- not using POSIX::ceil
- Callback is reserved for filter method
* refine codes according review comments
* make the comments right and more readable.
* Fix issue #2794, Nodeset fails to generate /tftpboot config files if ip attribute is not set
- Report error when the node cannot be handled by its xcatmaster/servicenode (sharedtftp=0)
* - using determinehostname to get the current server name, it will reduce the time when many service nodes.
With the nytprof tool, the buttleneck is the time to update the bootparams
table.To optimize the performance on large scale nodes, this patch tranfer
the bootparams hash through variable reference.
posible impact: getdestiny can not get the information about bootparams.
