RFC 7440 - TFTP Windowsize Option

Every requirement this repository extracted from RFC 7440, the tests bound to it, and what a reader has verified about them. This summary is enrolled and gated by ./le rfc check.

Overview

Positive

what Ze has

Tested both ways100.0%1 of 1 binding obligations

a positive test proves Ze does what the requirement demands and a negative one proves it refuses what the requirement forbids

One polarity plus reason0.0%0 of 1 binding obligations

the requirement admits no counter-case, so one polarity plus a recorded reason is the whole proof available for it

One polarity, unexcused0.0%0 of 1 binding obligations

one direction is tested, the other is neither tested nor excused, and nothing states which

No test at all0.0%0 of 1 binding obligations

no test carries the requirement id, whether or not a gap states why

Proven by a recorded break0.0%0 of 2 tagged units

a red was observed once under a recorded procedure, and the unit, the claim and the producer it rested on still hash to what was recorded. The break is not re-run. A test pair is not a proof until one has been observed

Neutral

measures that are neither good news nor bad

Gated MUSTs9of 15 this summary declares

MUST-level requirements the gate HOLDS. A population, not a result: the shares beside it are what says how Ze stands

Out of scope8of 9 gated MUSTs

a {not-applicable} annotation says the obligation does not bind Ze. Scope, not coverage: it is in no share below

The 4 shares marked as a part above are the whole of the 1 obligations that bind Ze: they add to 100%. Proven by a recorded break is a share of TAGGED UNITS, a different population, so it is not one of them.

How to read the colors

A color names what the measure MEANS, not how well Ze scores on it. Green is a good outcome at any value, red is a bad one, and neither a population nor a scope count is an outcome, so both take no color. The number under the label is what says how far Ze has got.

CardTone hereWhy that color
Gated MUSTs neutral no color: a population is a scale, and a larger one is neither good news nor bad. It is the accounting total
Out of scope neutral no color: an obligation that never bound Ze is neither an achievement nor a failure, and counting it either way would be a claim
Tested both ways ok green at every value: a test pair is the outcome this gate exists to produce, and the share under the label is what says how far Ze has got
One polarity plus reason ok green at every value: where no counter-case exists, one polarity IS the complete answer, and a recorded reason is what the gate demands beside it
One polarity, unexcused ok green at zero, RED above it: half a proof with no reason for the other half
No test at all ok green at zero, RED above it: a binding obligation nothing exercises is a claim with nothing behind it, whether or not a reason is stated
Proven by a recorded break ok green at every value: an observed break is the outcome the discrimination gate exists to produce. The denominator is TAGGED UNITS, not obligations, so this share is not one of the parts above
Audit verdicts warn RED on the first weak, wrong or unimplemented verdict, amber while a verdict is no longer current or a gated MUST is unjudged, green when every one is judged sound and current

Enrolment

Enrolled: TFTP Windowsize Option: nine MUST-level requirements. 3-1 (all RRQ/WRQ fields except the opcode are NUL-terminated ASCII strings) is met with positive+negative tags on the RRQ parser (internal/plugins/tftpserver/handler.go:61 parseRRQ rejects a field lacking its NUL). The eight windowsize-option MUSTs (3-2 value range, 3-3 acknowledged windowsize, 3-4 client uses the OACK windowsize, 4-1 windowed send, 4-2 windowed ACK, 4-3 windowsize-1 equivalence, 4-4 timeout window-start, 4-5 sequence-error rollback) are {not-applicable}: ze's TFTP server implements base RFC 1350 with the RFC 2347/2348/2349 blksize and tsize options only; it records the windowsize option name but discards the value and never negotiates it, falling back to lockstep.

{not-applicable}: ze does not implement the RFC 7440 windowsize option; parseRRQ records the option name as a bool and discards the value (internal/plugins/tftpserver/handler.go:129-130) without range-validating it, and the option is never negotiated

negativeno testno negative test

{not-applicable}: ze never acknowledges the windowsize option -- sendOACKAndWait (internal/plugins/tftpserver/handler.go:312-343) builds the OACK from blksize/tsize only, so there is no acknowledged windowsize to constrain

MUST 3
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{not-applicable}: this is a TFTP client obligation (use the OACK windowsize or send ERROR 8); ze is a TFTP server and does not implement the windowsize option

RFC7440-4-1The data sender MUST cyclically send the agreed windowsize consecutive data blocks before stopping and waiting for ACK (§4)
MUST 4
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{not-applicable}: ze's TFTP server transfers in RFC 1350 lockstep -- one DATA block per ACK (serveFile/sendAndWaitACK internal/plugins/tftpserver/handler.go:346-413) -- and implements no windowed send; it logs a fallback to lockstep when a client requests windowsize (handler.go:276-277)

RFC7440-4-2The data receiver MUST send ACK of the last data block of the window to confirm successful reception (§4)
MUST 4
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{not-applicable}: ze acknowledges each single DATA block, not a window -- serveFile/sendAndWaitACK wait for the ACK of the one block just sent (internal/plugins/tftpserver/handler.go:346-413); with no negotiated windowsize there is no last-block-of-window ACK to send

RFC7440-4-3Traffic with windowsize=1 MUST be equivalent to traffic specified by RFC 1350 (§4)
MUST 4
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{not-applicable}: ze's default RFC 1350 lockstep is windowsize-1-equivalent by construction, but the windowsize option itself is unimplemented -- parseRRQ discards the requested value (internal/plugins/tftpserver/handler.go:129-130) and the OACK never carries windowsize (handler.go:312-343), so there is no negotiated windowsize=1 to equate

RFC7440-4-4On timeout, the beginning of the next window MUST be set based on the last received ACK (§4)
MUST 4
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{not-applicable}: ze retransmits the single unacknowledged block on timeout (sendAndWaitACK internal/plugins/tftpserver/handler.go:386-413) and computes no window start; with no windowed send there is no next-window beginning to derive from the last ACK

RFC7440-4-5On sequence error, the sender's new window beginning MUST be set based on the ACK received out of sequence (§4)
MUST 4
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{not-applicable}: ze has no windowed transfer, so no out-of-sequence window recomputation exists -- sendAndWaitACK only accepts the ACK matching the block just sent and otherwise retransmits that one block (internal/plugins/tftpserver/handler.go:404-411)

Proof state

A tagged unit reads unproven where no discrimination record exists for it: nothing in this tree has been observed to break it, so the claim its tag makes is unproven.

Extraction sign-off

No extraction sign-off exists for RFC 7440, so no reviewer has walked its text sentence by sentence.
