53098f0e28 The nextboot(8) manual page currently says that the loader(8) would delete
the /boot/nextboot.conf file or its contents which is 1) not the most user-
friendly way of working with custom configurations, and 2) simply not true
for both Forth and Lua implementations: they would not delete it, but just
change the setting to "NO", that is, disable it.

While at it, add one missing serial (Oxford) comma and fix some bogus line
wraps along the way.

e307eb94ae loader: zfs should support bootonce an nextboot
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.

Perhaps RB_MUTE could mute user startup (rc) output as well, but right
now it mutes only kernel console output, so make the documentation match

1de7b4b805 various: general adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.
Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

No functional change intended.

6237ce0841 Add flag to disable inital reboot(8) userland sync
Add -N flag to reboot(8) which bypasses the userland sync(2) during
reboot(8) while still allow the kernel sync during the reboot(2) syscall
to occur.

An example use of this is when rebooting with disconnected iSCSI sessions
which would otherwise cause the reboot to hang on BIOs that will never
complete.

the root filesystem without full reboot, using "reboot -r". This can
be used to to eg. boot from a temporary md_image preloaded by loader(8),
setup an iSCSI session, and continue booting from rootfs mounted over
iSCSI.

b8c19fd719 It's 2015, and some people are still trying to use fdisk and then
go asking what debug flags to set for GEOM to make it work.  Advice
them to use gpart(8) instead.

Something similar should probably done with disklabel,
but I need to rewrite the disklabel examples first.
