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.
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.

Off by default, build behaves normally.
WITH_META_MODE we get auto objdir creation, the ability to
start build from anywhere in the tree.
Still need to add real targets under targets/ to build packages.

- Fix boot0 to check for PXE when using the pre-set setting for the
preferred slice.
- Update boot0cfg to use slice 6 to select PXE. Accept a 'pxe' argument
instead of a number for the 's' option as a way to select PXE as well.

ways. Improve error reporting and also fix indenting.
Now we are trying to write bootcode:
1. Directly to provider (if we can open it for writing);
2. Via GEOM_PART (if it is available);
3. Via GEOM_MBR.

boot0.S changes:
+ import a patch from Christoph Mallon to rearrange the various
print functions and save another couple of bytes;
+ implement the suggestion in PR 70531 to enable booting from
any valid partition because even the extended partitions that
were previously in our kill list may contain a valid boot loader.
This simplifies the code and saves some bytes;
+ followwing up PR 127764, implement conditional code to preserve
the 'Volume ID' which might be used by other OS (NT, XP, Vista)
and is located at offset 0x1b8. This requires a relocation of the
parameter block within the boot sector -- there is no other
possible workaround.
To address this, boot0cfg has been updated to handle both
versions of the boot code;
+ slightly rearrange the strings printed in the menus to make
the code buildable with all options. Given the tight memory
budget, this means that with certain options we need to
shrink or remove certain labels.
and especially:
make -DVOLUME_LABEL -DPXE the default options.
This means that the newly built boot0 block will preserve the
Volume ID, and has the (hidden) option F6 to boot from INT18/PXE.
I think the extra functionality is well worth the change.
The most visible difference here is that the 'Default: ' string
now becomes 'Boot: ' (it can be reverted to the old value
but then we need to nuke 1/2 partition name or entries to
make up for the extra room).
boot0cfg changes:
+ modify the code to recognise the new boot0 structure (with the
relocated options block to make room for the Volume id).
+ add two options, '-i xxxx-xxxx' to set the volume ID, -e c
to modify the character printed in case of bad input

duplication of code in fdisk and boot0cfg. Also make use of g_providername to
fix an issue with fdisk and boot0cfg not using the correct provider when
writing the MBR.
