There is no current ixgbe driver for iPXE. In general, porting the equivalent Linux driver is a bad idea, and leads to code with a large footprint and a high maintenance burden. I would recommend that you obtain and understand any relevant datasheets, then create a driver from scratch. I would estimate that creating a driver from scratch for a well-documented card should take no more than a few days.
