bootonce feature is temporary, one time boot, activated by
"bectl activate -t BE", "bectl activate -T BE" will reset the bootonce flag.
By default, the bootonce setting is reset on attempt to boot and the next
boot will use previously active BE.
By setting zfs_bootonce_activate="YES" in rc.conf, the bootonce BE will
be set permanently active.
bootonce dataset name is recorded in boot pool labels, bootenv area.
in case of nextboot, the nextboot_enable boolean variable is recorded in
freebsd:nvstore nvlist, also stored in boot pool label bootenv area.
On boot, the loader will process /boot/nextboot.conf if nextboot_enable
is "YES", and will set nextboot_enable to "NO", preventing /boot/nextboot.conf
processing on next boot.
bootonce and nextboot features are usable in both UEFI and BIOS boot.
To use bootonce/nextboot features, the boot loader needs to be updated on disk;
if loader.efi is stored on ESP, then ESP needs to be updated and
for BIOS boot, stage2 (zfsboot or gptzfsboot) needs to be updated
(gpart or other tools).
At this time, only lua loader is updated.

sys/ccompile.h no longer uses #pragma ident, so we no longer need to worry
about unknown pragmas.
I fixed one WARNS issue in r363409 by annotating be_is_auto_snapshot_name's
lbh parameter __unused, then upstreamed the following changes to OpenZFS
that rode in with the merge:
- zfs_path_to_zhandle now takes a const char *path rather than a char *path,
since it won't be mutating the string it receives and I had no reason to
believe it will need to in the future. [OpenZFS PR #10605]
- Annotated some unused parameters on definitions inlined into headers as
such. [OpenZFS PR #10606]
The primary benefit is maintaining a completely shared
code base with the community allowing FreeBSD to receive
new features sooner and with less effort.
I would advise against doing 'zpool upgrade'
or creating indispensable pools using new
features until this change has had a month+
to soak.
Work on merging FreeBSD support in to what was
at the time "ZFS on Linux" began in August 2018.
I first publicly proposed transitioning FreeBSD
to (new) OpenZFS on December 18th, 2018. FreeBSD
support in OpenZFS was finally completed in December
2019. A CFT for downstreaming OpenZFS support in
to FreeBSD was first issued on July 8th. All issues
that were reported have been addressed or, for
a couple of less critical matters there are
pull requests in progress with OpenZFS. iXsystems
has tested and dogfooded extensively internally.
The TrueNAS 12 release is based on OpenZFS with
some additional features that have not yet made
it upstream.
Improvements include:
project quotas, encrypted datasets,
allocation classes, vectorized raidz,
vectorized checksums, various command line
improvements, zstd compression.
Thanks to those who have helped along the way:
Ryan Moeller, Allan Jude, Zack Welch, and many
others.

The default package use to be FreeBSD-runtime but it should only contain
binaries and libs enough to boot to single user and repair the system, it
is also very handy to have a package that can be tranform to a small mfsroot.
So create a new package named FreeBSD-utilities and make it the default one.
Also move a few binaries and lib into this package when it make sense.

SHLIBDIR should still be optionally set, just before src.opts.mk is included
so that libcompat can properly override it. This fixes lib32 failures
reported by both Jenkins and Michael Butler.

Rob's patch in D18564 cemented the SHLIBDIR because bsd.own.mk (included by
src.opts.mk) sets it to /usr/lib. r346546 did somehow not apply this part of
the patch, leaving it to get installed to the wrong place and subsequently
removed via ObsoleteFiles.

vermaden (maintainer of beadm) points out the following inconsistencies:
- "missing command" is not printed prior to usage if the error is simply a
missing command; this should be obvious from the context
- "bectl rename" isn't using the "don't unmount" flag (zfs rename -u), so
the active BE can't be renamed. It doesn't make sense in our context to
*not* use -u, so use it.
Documentation updates reflect the above and note an inconsistency with the
'destroy' command that is consistent with other parts of the base system.
A fix for libbe(3) not properly being installed to /lib is included.
SHLIBDIR should have been added when it was moved in r337995.
Approved by: re (kib)
Some background: in the GSoC project, libbe/Makefile lived in lib/libbe. I
created projects/bectl branch, maintained the above for all of five
minutes before I misread Makefile.inc1 and decided that it couldn't possibly
build outside of cddl/, so I kicked the Makefile out into the cddl/ build
and all was good. The misreading was of the bit where .WAIT is added to
SUBDIR after lib, libexec but prior to building bin and cddl *only during
the install targets*, which is the critical part.
Fast forward- buildworld was still broken in my branch unbeknownst to me
because I didn't nuke my OBJDIR. Combing through Makefile.inc1 eventually
revealed the necessary magic to make sure that libbe's dependencies are
specified well enough, and it becomes clear what needs done to make a
non-cddl/ build work. This is an interesting prospect, because the build
split is kind of annoying to work with.
IGNORE_PRAGMA is added to avoid dropping WARNS by one more. This was
previously pulled in via cddl/Makefile.inc.
