barebox uses POSIX file interface for working with tftp.

We have to provide these basic functions (see fs/tftp.c):

static struct fs_driver_d tftp_driver = {
        .open      = tftp_open,
        .read      = tftp_read,
        .write     = tftp_write,
        .close     = tftp_close,
        /* Other functions for unlink, truncate,
           mkdir, rmdir, stat, opendir, lseek, create
           are not so important. */
};

So **fs/tftp.c code is driven** by user code that
uses file interface for accessing to the files
on tftp-server.

AFAI understand picotcp tftp support uses event-driven interface
so **user code is driven** by picotcp tftp support code.

How we can use picotcp tftp support for realization
of POSIX file interface?
