Follow-up Comment #5, bug #40363 (project grub):
When the block number gets over 0xffff the last
packet gets ack'ed twice and grub shows this error:
error: not an IP.
(Due to an tcpdump at the tftp server; the tftp server
itself is logging that the file was sent successfully.)
(With the patch #29471 tftp.diff applied on top of
yesterdays git c16535a845dcbb2b1d3b42994d3b72b8dc088a38)
I think this is because ack_sent stores only the 2 byte
block number.
When storing in ack_sent the real block number like in
attached patch it works when the block number turns over.
(And works also for smaller files.)
(Tested indeed only in a tiny network with one VM as server,
one VM and one PC as clients.)
(file #29478)
