GEOM ELI may double ask the password during boot. Once at loader time, and
once at init time.
This happens due a module loading bug. By default GEOM ELI caches the
password in the kernel, but without the MODULE_VERSION annotation, the
kernel loads over the kernel module, even if the GEOM ELI was compiled into
the kernel. In this case, the newly loaded module
purges/invalidates/overwrites the GEOM ELI's password cache, which causes
the double asking.
MFC Note: There's a pc98 component to the original submission that is
omitted here due to pc98 removal in head. This part will need to be revived
upon MFC.

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.
When parent provider has been resized, the scheme specific G_PART_RESIZE
method does an update of scheme's metadata. But all changes are not saved
to disk, until `gpart commit` will be called.

No FreeBSD version bump, the userland application to query the features will
be committed last and can serve as an indication of the availablility if
needed.

true for providers labeled using the synthetic geometry provided
by cam_calc_geometry(9) but neither SCSI disks labeled with Solaris
nor sufficiently large ATA disks.
- Given that providers (originally) labeled with Solaris typically
use the native geometry as reported by the target while FreeBSD
typically uses a synthetic one put the message complaining about
mismatching geometries between what the label indicates and what
GEOM thinks the provider has, which we generally can't help,
under bootverbose in order to not unnecessarily scare users.
- For informational purposes add the non-matching values to the
message complaining about them, similar to what r186501 did for
g_part_bsd_read() except also indicating the origin of the
values.
- Make it clear that the messages emitted by this code refer to
the VTOC8 support rather than to another existing scheme or to
VTOC32.

specific fields which can be used by libdisk. In particular, have
the schemes dump the xs and xt fields, which contain the backward
compatible values for class type and partition type. This allows
libdisk to work with the legacy slicers as well as with gpart and

gpart core and will add the scheme to an internal list on module load
and will remove the scheme from the internal list on module unload.
This makes it possible to dynamically load and unload partitioning
schemes.
not have VTOC information about the partitions, it will be created.
This is because the VTOC information is used for the partition type
and FreeBSD's sunlabel(8) does not create nor use VTOC information.
For this purpose, new tags have been added to support FreeBSD's
partition types.
