According to comments in the Makefile, to make pxeboot work we need to
have crt0.o first. This is needed because the simplified loader in
pxeboot assumes that the startup code is at offset 0 in this binary. In
normal booting, the start address can be obtained from headers of the
binary, but since pxeboot encodes this as a pure binary, it has no way
of knowing where that is and assumes 0. Added comments to that effect
in the Makefile.
We've done this by adding it to OBJS before all the other .o's are
added. However, there's a problem. This also adds it to the CLEANFILES
variable, which causes it to be removed from multiple places. The
dependencies may also cause it to be re-built at a time that's after
boot2 is built. This causes installs to fail because at install time
boot2 is considered to be out of date and the programs to rebuild it are
no longer in the path.
Cope with this problem by just adding it to LDFLAGS instead.

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.

The checkpoints are another way of keeping the state of ZFS.
During the rewind, the pool has to be exported.
This makes checkpoints unusable when using ZFS as root.

If checkpoint exists, a new option for rewinding a checkpoint will appear in

The vectx API, computes the hash for verifying a file as it is read.
This avoids the overhead of reading files twice - once to verify, then
again to load.
For doing an install via loader, avoiding the need to rewind
large files is critical.
This API is only used for modules, kernel and mdimage as these are the
biggest files read by the loader.
The reduction in boot time depends on how expensive the I/O is
on any given platform. On a fast VM we see 6% improvement.
For install via loader the first file to be verified is likely to be the
kernel, so some of the prep work (finding manifest etc) done by
verify_file() needs to be factored so it can be reused for
vectx_open().
For missing or unrecognized fingerprint entries, we fail
in vectx_open() unless verifying is disabled.
Otherwise fingerprint check happens in vectx_close() and
since this API is only used for files which must be verified
(VE_MUST) we panic if we get an incorrect hash.

LLD 10.0.0 changed the behavior of the -Ttext option, so that using
-Ttext=0x0 now causes linking of the loaders to fail with:
ld: error: output file too large: 18446744073707016908 bytes
I reported this in https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44715, and
initially reverted the upstream change in r357259 to work around it.
However, after some discussion with Fangrui Song in the upstream ticket,
I think we can classify this as an unfortunate interaction between using
-Ttext=0 in combination with --no-rosegment. (We added the latter
in r332090, because btxld does not correctly handle input with more
than 2 PT_LOAD segments.)
Fangrui suggested to use a linker script instead, and Warner was already
attempting this in r305353, but had to revert it due to "crypto-using
boot problems" (not sure what those were :).
This review updates the stand/i386/boot.ldscript to handle more
sections, inserts some symbols like _edata and such that we use in
libsa, and also discards any .interp section.
It uses ORG which is defined on the linker command line using
--defsym ORG=value to set the start of all the sections.

Add map-vdisk and unmap-vdisk commands to create virtual disk interface on top of file. This will allow to use disk image from file system to load and start the kernel.
By mapping file, we create vdiskX device, the device will be listed by lsdev [-v] and can be accessed directly as ls vdisk0p1:/path or can be used as value for currdev variable.
vdisk strategy function does not use bcache as we have bcache used with backing file. vdisk can be unmapped when all consumers have closed the open files.
In first iteration we do not support the zfs images because zfs pools do keep the device open (there is no "zpool export" mechanism). Adding zfs support is relatively simple, we just need to run zfs disk probe after mapping is done.

When loader(8) is built with zfs support enabled, it assumes that any extarg
data present is a zfs_boot_args struct, but if the first-stage loader was
gptboot(8) the extarg data is actually a geli_boot_args struct. Luckily,
zfsboot(8) and gptzfsboot(8) have always passed KARGS_FLAGS_ZFS along with
KARGS_FLAGS_EXTARG, so we can use KARGS_FLAGS_ZFS to decide whether the
extarg data is a zfs_boot_args struct.
To avoid similar problems in the future, gptboot(8) now passes a new
KARGS_FLAGS_GELI to indicate that extarg data is geli_boot_args. In
loader(8), if the neither KARGS_FLAGS_ZFS nor KARGS_FLAGS_GELI is set but
extarg data is present (which will be the case for gptboot compiled before
this change), we now check for the known size of the geli_boot_args struct
passed by the older versions of gptboot as a way of confirming what type of
extarg data is present.
In a semi-related tidying up, since loader's main() has already decided
what type of extarg data is present and set the global 'zargs' var
accordingly, don't repeat the check in extract_currdev, just check whether
zargs is NULL or not.

of args data between gptboot/zfsboot and loader(8).
Despite what seems like a lot of changes here, there are no actual
changes in behavior, or in the data layout in the structures involved.
This is just eliminating identical code pasted into multiple locations.
In detail, the changes are...
- Move struct zfs_boot_args definition from libsa/zfs/libzfs.h to
i386/common/bootargs.h because it is specific to x86 booting and the
handoff between zfsboot and loader, and has no relation to the zfs
library code in general.
- The geli_boot_args and zfs_boot_args structs both contain an identical
set of member variables containing geli information. Extract this out
to a new geli_boot_data struct, and embed it in the arg-passing structs.
- Provide new routines geli_import_boot_data() and geli_export_boot_data()
that can be shared between gptboot, zfsboot, and loader instead of
pasting identical code into several different .c files.
- Remove some checks for a NULL pointer that can never be true because the
pointer being tested was set using pointer math (kargs + 1) and that can
never result in NULL in this code.

zfsloader as a hard link. While newer ones do, the whole point of the
link was to transition to the new world order smoothly. A hard link is
less flexible, but it works and will result in fewer bumps. Adjust
UPDATING entry to match.
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).

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.
