      The RHEL 8 version of tftp 5.2 does not support the windowsize flag as specified in RFC 7440. This had previously been included in RHEL 7 after being raised in bug 1328827. Could this please be considered for implementation in RHEL 8.

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
      redhat-release-8.4-0.6.el8.x86_64 / tftp-hpa 5.2, with readline

      How reproducible:
      100%

      Steps to Reproduce:
      1. $ dnf install tftp
      2. $ tftp -w 64 $tftp_server

      Actual results:
      Results in error

      [user@rhel8 ~]$ tftp -w 64 10.5.86.73 -v
      Usage: tftp [-4][-6][-v][-V][-l][-m mode] [-R port:port] [host [port]] [-c command]
      [user@rhel8 ~]$
      

      Expected results:
      Results in successful connection and tftp shell

      [user@rhel7 ~]$ tftp -w 64 10.5.86.73 -v
      Connected to 10.5.86.73 (10.5.86.73), port 69
