Changes in 0.13:
Added the non-standard option "blksize2". The "blksize"
option is limited in its usability, since TFTP is designed to
be implemented in a ROM, and ROM code might find it painful to
deal with packets that don't meet certain alignment
restrictions.
The "blksize2" option tells the server that the block size
must be a power of 2 to be usable to the client. The server
SHALL respond with a block size that is a power of two, up to
a maximum of 32768, or reject the option. Furthermore, the
server SHALL grant a block size that is no smaller than 512
bytes unless the client explicitly requested a smaller block
size. If the client request both options, the server MAY
accept one or the other, but not both. At some point I will
probably write up an IETF draft for this option.
General information on the tftp-hpa series:
This is a conglomerate of a number of versions of the BSD TFTP code,
ported to Linux, although it should work on mostly any POSIX-compliant
OS with sockets.
