Which one? This is important to know for distribution maintainers and,
ultimately, users.
As far as I know it's all fine until now, the problem would arise in
your next patch, so perhaps state that.
The real reason why we need this is that we want to have a given, fixed
size for the option field (308) so that we can easily check we don't
exceed it once we start writing the FQDN in it.
This change create a new reply message and fill
it in with proper fields
from request adding on top the generated opetions.

On one hand, this fits with a function that's called "fill()". On the
other hand, I would have a slight preference to keep this in dhcp()
because dhcp() is a comprehensive summary (albeit a bit long) of what
we're doing.
Is there a particular reason why you moved non-option field assignments
to here?
The original fill() function do set some non options fields
m->op = BOOTREPLY;
m->secs = 0;
That was my motivation to add the rest of them.
What do you think about doing the opposite and moving op and secs out
of fill next to the rest of options ?
The place would be just after parsing request with "packet_get(p, 0,
offset, offsetof(struct msg, o), &opt_len);"
Something like:
m = packet_get(p, 0, offset, offsetof(struct msg, o), &opt_len);
if (!m ||
mlen != ntohs(uh->len) - sizeof(*uh) ||
mlen < offsetof(struct msg, o) ||
m->op != BOOTREQUEST)
return -1;
reply.op = BOOTREPLY;
reply.htype = m->htype;
reply.hlen = m->hlen;
reply.hops = 0;
reply.xid = m->xid;
reply.secs = 0;
reply.flags = m->flags;
reply.ciaddr = m->ciaddr;
reply.yiaddr = c->ip4.addr;
reply.siaddr = 0;
reply.giaddr = m->giaddr;
memcpy(&reply.chaddr, m->chaddr, sizeof(reply.chaddr));
memset(&reply.sname, 0, sizeof(reply.sname));
memset(&reply.file, 0, sizeof(reply.file));
reply.magic = m->magic;

These look like a table, the 'resp' assignments above don't.

This needs to be 0. The issue is pre-existing, but as you're already
doing this...

Could we have *all* those in order? If one is familiar with the
standard (or is reading it), it's easier to follow and find things.
