Note when we've found a 8250 PNP node. Only try to set hw.uart.console
if we see one (otherwise ignore serial hints). The 8250 is the only
one known to have I/O ports, so limit the guessing to when we've
positively seen one. And limit this to x86 since that's the only
platform where we have I/O ports. Otherwise, we'd set the serial port
to something crazy for the platform and fall off the cliff early in
boot.

Add some verbose debugging information to the loader's new

media path, return NOT_SPECIFIC so that the rest of the algorithms

If we are booting in a conforming UEFI Boot Manager Environment, then
use the BootCurrent variable to find the BootXXXX we're using. Once we
find that, then if it contains more than one EFI_DEVICE_PATH in its
what to boot section, try to use the last one as the kernel to
load. This will also set the default root partition as well. If
there's only one path, or if there's an error along the way, assume
that nothing specific was specified and revert to the old
algorithm. If something was specified, but not found, then fail the
boot. Otherwise you that, specific thing. On FreeBSD, this can be set
using efibootmgr -l <loader> -k <kernel>. We try a few variations of
kernel to cope with the fact that UEFI comes from a DOS world where
paths might be upper case and/or contain back-slashes.
Note: In an ideal world, we'd work out where we are in chain loading
by looking at the passed-in image handle and doing name
matching. However, that's unreliable since at least boot1.efi booted
images don't have that, hence the assumption that loader.efi needs to
load the last thing on the list, if possible.
The reason we fail for something specific is so that we can fully
participate in the UEFI Boot Manager Protocol and fail over to the
next item in the list of BootOrder choices when something goes wrong
at this stage.

Lookup a block device by it's device path. We use a 'loose' lookup
whereby we scan forward to the first Media Path portion of the device
path, then look at all our handles for one whose first Media Path
matches. This will also work if the device path pointed to has a
following file path (or paths) as that's ignored. It assumes that
there's only one media path node that describes the entire device,
which is true as of the latest UEFI spec (2.7 Errata A) as far as I've
been able to determine.

We no longer really need a separate zfsloader. It was useful when we
were first supporting ZFS and had limited ability to properly boot off
of ZFS without the special boot loader. Now that the boot loader has
matured, go the way loader.efi pioneered and just build one
binary. Change the name of the loader to load in the secondary boot
blocks to be just /boot/loader. Provide a symbolic link from zfsloader
to loader so people who have not upgraded their boot blocks are not
affected. This has the happy benefit of making coexistence easier as
well (fewer binaries in the matrix).

inefficient, and causes all lines to be over-printed in the serial
console for the boot loader. Allow the terminal to do the emulation.
This isn't completely perfect when the size of the terminal attached
to the serial port isn't the same as 80x25 to match the viedoe console

This makes the serial port useful with UEFI.

o Now that the console is working again for the loader, adjust the

note that r336270's commit message was slightly incorrect. It changed
the default setting of the console to honor the ConOut
variable. Overrides via the command line are still possible, and we
use the devices in ConOut to set the proper console. If, for example,
serial cosnole is specified, we'll set console to "efi" if ConOut has
a serial port list and to either "efi comconsole" or "comconsole efi"
if not depending on whether -D or -D -h was specified.

For server machines, ComOut is set to the set of devices that the efi
console suppots. Parse it to see if we have serial, video or both.
Make that take precidence over the command line args. boot1.efi parses
them, but loader.efi doesn't. It's not clear where to read boot.conf
from, so we don't do that. The command line args can still be set via
efibootmgr, which is more inline with the UEFI boot manager to replace
that. These args are typically used only to set serial vs video and
the com speed line. We can infer that from ComOut, so do so.
Remember the com speed and hw.uart.console to match.

This moves the bulk of the geli support from lib386/biosdisk.c into a new
geli/gelidev.c which implements a devsw-type device whose dv_strategy()
function handles geli decryption. Support for all arches comes from moving
the taste-and-attach code to the devopen() function in libsa.
After opening any DEVT_DISK device, devopen() calls the new function
geli_probe_and_attach(), which will "attach" the geli code to the open_file
struct by creating a geli_devdesc instance to replace the disk_devdesc
instance in the open_file. That routes all IO for the device through the
geli code.
A new public geli_add_key() function is added, to allow arch/vendor-specific
code to add keys obtained from custom hardware or other sources.
With these changes, geli support will be compiled into all variations of
loader(8) on all arches because the default is WITH_LOADER_GELI.

boot_parse_args to parse all the args in a vector
boot_howto_to_env Convert howto bits to env vars
boot_env_to_howto Return howto mask mased on what's set in the environment.
All these routines return an int that's the bitmask of the args
translated to RB_* flags. As a special case, the 'S' flag sets the
comconsole_speed env var. Any arg that looks like a=b will set the env
key 'a' to value 'b'. If =b is omitted, 'a' is set to '1'. This
should help us reduce the number of redundant copies of these routines
in the tree. It should also give a more uniform experience between
platforms.
Also, invent a new flag RB_PROBE that's set when 'P' is parsed. On
x86 + BIOS, this means 'probe for the keyboard, and if it's not there
set both RB_MULTIPLE and RB_SERIAL (which means show the output on
both video and serial consoles, but make serial primary). Others it
may be some similar concept of probing, but it's loader dependent
what, exactly, it means.
These routines are suitable for /boot/loader and/or the kernel,
though they may not be suitable for the tightly hand-rolled-for-space
environments like boot2.

While ../zfs/libzfs.h mostly works, there are a few situations where
it does not. Eliminate the problem by using plain libzfs.h, like we do
for ufs support. This fixes the weird cases, and is easier to
understand. It also follows the general style convetion of avoiding
../ in #includes.
Move the libzfs stuff into libsa. There's no need for it to be a
separate library. The separate library adds to the issues of build
ordering that we see from time to time. Move the filesystem support
into libsa, like all the other filesystem support rather than making
zfs the odd-duck out.

U-Boot setup a few variables :
- fdt_addr which is the board static dtb (most of the time loaded before
u-boot or coming from some hardware like a ROM)
- fdt_addr_r which is a location in RAM that holds the DTB loaded by
u-boot or before u-boot
In the case of u-boot + rpi firmware the DTB is loaded in RAM but the location
still end up in the fdt_addr variable and the fdt_addr_r variable exist.
Change the behavior so we test that a DTB exists for every possible variable :
- fdt_addr_r is checked first as if u-boot needed to modify it the
correct DTB will live there.
- fdt_addr is checked second as if we run on a hardware with DTB in ROM
it means that we what/need to run that
- fdtaddr looks like a FreeBSD-ism but since I'm not sure leave it.
