If a PXE client only wants to find out the size of a file, it will
open the file and then abort the transfer by sending a TFTP ERROR packet.

The ERROR packet should cause qemu to terminate the session. If not,
the sessions will soon run out and cause timeouts in the client.

Also, if a TFTP session already exists with same IP/UDP port, it
should be terminated when a new RRQ is received, instead of creating a
duplicate (which will never be used).

A patch for gPXE to send the ERROR packet is also being submitted to
gPXE. Together they resolve slowness/hanging when booting pxegrub from
qemu's internal TFTP server. The patch from Milan Plzik to return
after sending OACK is also required for a complete fix.

Thanks. It appears that the patch Milan submitted was missed (probably
because it was in a response to a thread), could you please apply that
one as well?

The subject was "Qemu's internal TFTP server breaks lock-step-iness of
TFTP", and it's archived here:

Yeah, I'll queue it.  It lacked a [PATCH] in the subject.
