Hi Mirek,
TCP is not supported presently, and not very likely in the future. TCP
takes a *lot* more effort than UDP and is not currently supported by u-boot.
It is possible to add TCP support to u-boot (when you have the source,
nearly anything is possible), but it is very unlikely due to the level
of complexity -- the benefit vs. effort ratio is very poor.
Best regards,
gvb
