Yes, safely, however I'm afraid #7398 is too outdated, thus maybe I'll open a new one with the most recent work. |

Based on #6922 and #7007.
This module enables firmware downloading using TFTP, but making the version requests using CoAP.
The server which is ready to answer such request is from @aabadie available here. You can follow the instructions there to set up a OTA server for the images produced by this PR.
Basically the instructions are the same as explained on #6922, but if you want to include the ota_update module you need to add it as any other module with:
USEMODULE += ota_update_tftpThe module will set up a CoAP client which will ask a server given by
OTA_SERVER_ADDRESS(IPv6 address) and a CoAP port given byOTA_SERVER_COAP_PORT, which is the one configured on the OTA server.Afterwards, it asks every
OTA_PERIODIC_REQ_TIMEseconds for an update (it "pulls" the update from the server). Push updates will be added in following PRs.For now, it only works for iotlab-m3 boards, since the previous PRs work also only for this board.
Thanks to #7128 and #5366 it will be soon possible to use this in samr21-xpro boards. Stay tuned.
