Right now is possible to modify bootable partition type to
non-bootable type without getting warning from partedit.
Example: if you auto parition drive for arm64, you will
get freebsd-ufs as bootable partition; now you are able
to change bootable partition type to freebsd-zfs; there
will be no warning and the system will install but
will not be bootable afterwards.
After this fix, partedit will issue the same warning it
does when user attempts to create bootable partition of
not supported type, notyfing a user about incoming
problem and allowing to think the decision over before
commiting the schema.
This has been tested on amd64 and arm64.

This adds .NOMETA to the crunch objects being used since they are

Add a new 'clear driver' command for devctl along with the accompanying
ioctl and devctl_clear_driver() library routine to reset a device to
use a wildcard devclass instead of a fixed devclass. This can be used
to undo a previous 'set driver' command. After the device's name has
been reset to permit wildcard names, it is reprobed so that it can
attach to newly-available (to it) device drivers.

Decouple the send and receive limits on the amount of data in a single
iSCSI PDU. MaxRecvDataSegmentLength is declarative, not negotiated, and
is direction-specific so there is no reason for both ends to limit
themselves to the same min(initiator, target) value in both directions.
Allow iSCSI drivers to report their send, receive, first burst, and max
burst limits explicitly instead of using hardcoded values or trying to
derive all of them from the receive limit (which was the only limit
reported by the drivers prior to this change).
Display the send and receive limits separately in the userspace iSCSI
utilities.

The most recent version of bsdinstall does not seem to respect any of
the checkboxes in the "Choose the services you would like to be started
at boot" dialog. None of the chosen services end up in the rc.conf file
that is installed onto the target system.
This is caused by the bsdinstall/scripts/hardening script, which
implements the new hardening options dialog. The script starts by
overwriting the previously written rc.conf.services file:
echo -n > $BSDINSTALL_TMPETC/rc.conf.services
which is obviously incorrect. It should clear out rc.conf.hardening
instead.

Just like with freelocale(3), I haven't been able to find any piece of
code that actually makes use of this function's return value, both in
base and in ports. The reason for this is that FreeBSD seems to be the
only operating system to have such a prototype. This is why I'm deciding
to not use symbol versioning for this.
It does seem that the pw(8) utility depends on the function's typing and
already had a switch in place to toggle between the FreeBSD and POSIX
variant of this function. Clean this up by always expecting the POSIX
variant.
There is also a single port that has a couple of local declarations of
setgrent(3) that need to be patched up. This is in the process of being
fixed.

Add code to generate bootable ISOs on Powermac and CHRP systems.
Synthesize some partition maps (APM and MBR, respectively) pointing
to (a) the whole disk, and (b) relevant El Torito boot images that
have been added by other code. These partition maps are a little
bit funny looking, but they seem to work. FreeBSD has been using
this successfully in their release generation on powerpc, as well
as generating all non-SPARC install media. SPARC support could
probably be added as an extension of this patch.

makefs does not properly verify the maximum filename length in the

If a filename contains a dot in the first 30 characters and a dot
