If tftpd receives a command with an unknown opcode, it simply exits 1. It
doesn't send an ERROR packet, and the client will hang waiting for one. Fix
it.

On a WRQ (write request) tftpd checks whether the client has access
permission for the file in question. If not, then the write is prevented.
However, tftpd doesn't reply with an ERROR packet, nor does it abort.
Instead, it tries to receive the packet anyway.
The symptom is slightly different depending on the nature of the error. If
the target file is nonexistent and tftpd lacks permission to create it, then
tftpd will willingly receive the file, but not write it anywhere. If the
file exists but is not writable, then tftpd will fail to ACK to WRQ.

tftpd(8) says that files may only be written if they already exist and are
publicly writable. tftpd.c verifies that a file is publicly writable if it
uses an absolute pathname. However, if the pathname is relative, that check
is skipped. Fix it.
Note that this is not a security vulnerability, because the transfer
ultimately doesn't work unless the file already exists and is owned by user
nobody. Also, this bug does not affect the default configuration, because
the default uses the "-s" option which makes all pathnames absolute.

On an RRQ, tftpd doesn't exit as soon as it's finished receiving a file.
Instead, it waits five seconds just in case the client didn't receive the
server's last ACK and decides to resend the final DATA packet.
Unfortunately, this created a 5 second delay from when the client thinks
it's done sending the file, and when the file is available for other
processes.
Fix this bug by closing the file as soon as receipt is finished.

tftpd(8) is difficult to test in isolation due to its relationship with
inetd. Create a test program that mimics the behavior of tftp(1) and
inetd(8) and verifies tftpd's response in several different scenarios.
These test cases cover all of the basic TFTP protocol, but not the optional
parts.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
No functional change intended.

Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
Off by default, build behaves normally.
WITH_META_MODE we get auto objdir creation, the ability to
start build from anywhere in the tree.
Still need to add real targets under targets/ to build packages.

This self-written compiler warning, which is hopefully going to be
committed into LLVM sources soon, warns about potentially missing
`static' keywords, similar to -Wmissing-prototypes.
- bin/pax: Move external declaration of chdname and s_mask into extern.h.
- bin/setfacl: Move setfacl.c-specific stuff out of setfacl.h.
- sbin/mount_fusefs: Remove char *progname; use getprogname().
- others: add `static' where possible.
A number of tftp clients, including the one in Intel's pxe boot loader,
may intentionally stop a transfer using error code 0 (i.e., EUNDEF).
These are not real errors. Avoid spamming log files with these by
logging them at level LOG_DEBUG instead.
Discussed on -hackers with an initial patch proposal; this change is an
improved approach suggested by kan@.

These wording changes clarify the default rollover behavior
as a "kludge". Also, the block numbers and octet counts for 65535 blocks
and 32767 blocks are more accurate than the existing documented numbers.

the block counter would rollover to 0 if a file larger
than 65535 blocks was transferred. With the default block size
of 512 octets per block, this is a file size of approximately 32 megabytes.
The new TFTP server code would report an error and stop transferring
the file if a file was larger than 65535 blocks.
This patch restores the old TFTP server's behavior to the new
TFTP server code. If a TFTP client transfers a file larger
than 65535 blocks, and does *not* specify the "rollover" option,
then automatically rollover the block counter to 0 every time
we reach 65535 blocks.
This restores interoperability with the FreeBSD 6 TFTP client.
Without this change, if a FreeBSD 6 TFTP client tried to
retrieve a file larger than 65535 blocks from a FreeBSD 9 TFTP server
, the transfer would fail.
The same file could be retrieved successfully if the same FreeBSD 6
TFTP client was used against a FreeBSD 6 TFTP server.

tftp implementation. The synchnet() function
was converted to a no-op when the new TFTP implementation
was committed to FreeBSD. However, this function, as it was
in the older code, is needed
in order to synchronize between the tftpd server and tftp clients,
which may be buggy.
Specifically, we had a buggy TFTP client which would send
TFTP ACK packets for non-TFTP packets, which would cause
the count of packets to get out of whack, causing transfers
to fail with the new TFTPD implementation.

just the case the -n option is intended to deal with and thus really spammed
us with ~20 messages in the default configuration when booting a diskless
FreeBSD client, introduced with r207608 again.
