1. 50+% of NO_PIE use is fixed by adding -fPIC to INTERNALLIB and other
build-only utility libraries.
2. Another 40% is fixed by generating _pic.a variants of various libraries.
3. Some of the NO_PIE use is a bit absurd as it is disabling PIE (and ASLR)
where it never would work anyhow, such as csu or loader. This suggests
there may be better ways of adding support to the tree. Many of these
cases can be fixed such that -fPIE will work but there is really no
reason to have it in those cases.
4. Some of the uses are working around hacks done to some Makefiles that are
really building libraries but have been using bsd.prog.mk because the code
is cleaner. Had they been using bsd.lib.mk then NO_PIE would not have
been needed.
We likely do want to enable PIE by default (opt-out) for non-tree consumers
(such as ports). For in-tree though we probably want to only enable PIE
(opt-in) for common attack targets such as remote service daemons and setuid
utilities. This is also a great performance compromise since ASLR is expected
to reduce performance. As such it does not make sense to enable it in all
utilities such as ls(1) that have little benefit to having it enabled.

particular, allow loaders to define the name of the RC script the
interpreter needs to use. Use this new-found control to have the
PXE loader (when compiled with TFTP support and not NFS support)
read from ${bootfile}.4th, where ${bootfile} is the name of the
file fetched by the PXE firmware.
The normal startup process involves reading the following files:
1. /boot/boot.4th
2. /boot/loader.rc or alternatively /boot/boot.conf
When these come from a FreeBSD-defined file system, this is all
good. But when we boot over the network, subdirectories and fixed
file names are often painful to administrators and there's really
no way for them to change the behaviour of the loader.

This is currently an opt-in build flag. Once ASLR support is ready and stable
it should changed to opt-out and be enabled by default along with ASLR.
Each application Makefile uses opt-out to ensure that ASLR will be enabled by

when booting from ZFS turned out to also cause the boot path not being
adjusted if booting from CD-ROM with firmware versions that do not employ
the "cdrom" alias in that case. So shuffle the code around instead in order
to achieve the original intent. Ideally, we shouldn't fiddle with the boot
path when booting from UFS on a disk either; unfortunately, there doesn't
seem to be an universal way of telling disks and CD-ROMs apart, though. [1]

In zfs loader zfs device name format now is "zfs:pool/fs",
fully qualified file path is "zfs:pool/fs:/path/to/file"
loader allows accessing files from various pools and filesystems as well
as changing currdev to a different pool/filesystem.
zfsboot accepts kernel/loader name in a format pool:fs:path/to/file or,
as before, pool:path/to/file; in the latter case a default filesystem
is used (pool root or bootfs). zfsboot passes guids of the selected
pool and dataset to zfsloader to be used as its defaults.
zfs support should be architecture independent and is provided
in a separate library, but architectures wishing to use this zfs support
still have to provide some glue code and their devdesc should be
compatible with zfs_devdesc.
arch_zfs_probe method is used to discover all disk devices that may
be part of ZFS pool(s).
libi386 unconditionally includes zfs support, but some zfs-specific
functions are stubbed out as weak symbols. The strong definitions
are provided in libzfsboot.
This change mean that the size of i386_devspec becomes larger
to match zfs_devspec.
Backward-compatibility shims are provided for recently added sparc64
zfs boot support. Currently that architecture still works the old
way and does not support the new features.

V100, the firmware is known to be broken and not allowing to simultaneously
open disk devices, causing attempts to boot from a mirror or RAIDZ to cause
a crash. This will be worked around later. The firmwares of newer sun4u models
don't seem to exhibit this problem though.
Steps for ZFS booting:
1. create VTOC8 label
# gpart create -s vtoc8 da0
2. add partitions, f.e.:
# gpart add -t freebsd-zfs -s 60g da0
# gpart add -t freebsd-swap da0
resulting in something like:
# gpart show
=> 0 143331930 da0 VTOC8 (68G)
0 125821080 1 freebsd-zfs (60G)
125821080 17510850 2 freebsd-swap (8.4G)
3. create zpool
# zpool create bunker da0a
or for mirror/RAIDZ (after preparing additional disks as in steps 1. + 2.):
# zpool create bunker mirror da0a da1a
# zpool create bunker raidz da0a da1a da2a ...
4. set bootfs
# zpool set bootfs=bunker bunker
5. install zfsboot
# zpool export bunker
# gpart bootcode -p /boot/zfsboot da0
6. write zfsloader to the ZFS Boot Block (so far, there's no dedicated tool
for this, so dd(1) has to be used for this purpose)
When using mirror/RAIDZ, step 4. and the dd(1) invocation should be repeated
for the additional disks in order to be able to boot from another disk in
case of failure.
# sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=0x10
# dd if=/boot/zfsloader of=/dev/da0a bs=512 oseek=1024 conv=notrunc
# zpool import bunker
7. install system on ZFS filesystem
Don't forget to set 'zfs_load="YES"' and vfs.root.mountfrom="zfs:bunker" in
loader.conf as well as 'zfs_enable="YES"'in rc.conf.
8. copy zpool.cache to the ZFS filesystem
cp -p /boot/zfs/zpool.cache /bunker/boot/zfs/zpool.cache
9. set mountpoint
# zfs set mountpoint=/ bunker
10. Now, given that aliases for all disks in the zpool exists (check with
the `devalias` command on the boot monitor prompt) and disk0 corresponds
to da0 (likewise for additional disks), the system can be booted from the
ZFS with:
{1} ok boot disk0

the TLBs in order to get rid of the user mappings but instead traverse
them an flush only the latter like we also do for the Spitfire-class.
Also flushing the unlocked kernel entries can cause instant faults which
when called from within cpu_switch() are handled with the scheduler lock
held which in turn can cause timeouts on the acquisition of the lock by
other CPUs. This was easily seen with a 16-core V890 but occasionally
also happened with 2-way machines.
While at it, move the SPARC64-V support code entirely to zeus.c. This
causes a little bit of duplication but is less confusing than partially
using Cheetah-class bits for these.
- For SPARC64-V ensure that 4-Mbyte page entries are stored in the 1024-
entry, 2-way set associative TLB.
- In {d,i}tlb_get_data_sun4u() turn off the interrupts in order to ensure
that ASI_{D,I}TLB_DATA_ACCESS_REG actually are read twice back-to-back.

hardly anything can be trusted to work.
