Hello All,
This set of patches fixes ipv4 behavior to handle boot parameters appropriately
and adds support for ipv6 tftp boot parameters.
1/4 - Fix the arguments to open function so that the following
patches will be easier to read and review. No functional change.
2/4 - Handle tftp boot parameters provided by the user appropriately (for ipv4).
3/4 - Move the extraction of ipv4 arguments to a separate function, for
easy readability of the next patch. No functional change.
4/4 - Add support for ipv6 tftp boot parameters.
ipv4 and ipv6 tftp boot parameters are tested in the following hardware with
the specified firmware version:
IBM BladeCenter JS22 Express - Model 799861X
Firmware version EA330_031
ipv4's current behavior is also tested to be working properly.
regards,
chandra
