devmem is used to represent MMIO devices like the boot ROM or a VESA framebuffer
where doing a trap-and-emulate for every access is impractical. devmem is a
hybrid of system memory (sysmem) and emulated device models.
devmem is mapped in the guest address space via nested page tables similar
to sysmem. However the address range where devmem is mapped may be changed
by the guest at runtime (e.g. by reprogramming a PCI BAR). Also devmem is
usually mapped RO or RW as compared to RWX mappings for sysmem.
Each devmem segment is named (e.g. "bootrom") and this name is used to
create a device node for the devmem segment (e.g. /dev/vmm/testvm.bootrom).
The device node supports mmap(2) and this decouples the host mapping of
devmem from its mapping in the guest address space (which can change).

This is done if the installation mode is not requested or auto-detected.
This is useful when a kernel has to be loaded from multiple disks.
For example from a RAID-Z pool or a ZFS pool with multiple top level
vdevs.

The '-f' check works fine on a regular file but not if the backing file is
a device (e.g., /dev/md0). In this case it would print a misleading but
otherwise benign message about the backing file not being present.

ISO will appear to be mounted on a /dev/cd device
instead of /dev/vtbd. This is similar to how other
virtualization environments handle mounting ISO images.

Move the "bhyvectl --destroy" outside of the while loop.

is identified as "DOS/MBR boot sector" as opposed to "x86 boot sector".
This trips up vmrun.sh when using the new file(1) and makes it want to boot
into the installer instead.
Fix this by just looking for "boot sector" instead.
This allows you to give a bhyve instance multiple network devices
and disk devices easily by specifying additional "-d " and "-t "
options.

the option returned by getopts.
- Add a -C option to specify the device to be used for the console
(defaults to 'stdio') (This could be let vmrun be run in the background
by using /dev/nmdm0B or the like)
- Add a -H option to specify a host path to pass to bhyveload(8) via
-h to back the host0: filesystem in bhyveload(8) (useful for loading
kernels from the host into the guest without having to copy them into
the guest's disk image first)

to a virtual machine then we implicitly create COM1 and COM2 ISA devices.
Prior to this change the only way of attaching a COM port to the virtual
machine was by presenting it as a PCI device that is mapped at the legacy
I/O address 0x3F8 or 0x2F8.
There were some issues with the original approach:
- It did not work at all with UEFI because UEFI will reprogram the PCI device
BARs and remap the COM1/COM2 ports at non-legacy addresses.
- OpenBSD GENERIC kernel does not create a /dev/console because it expects
the uart device at the legacy 0x3F8/0x2F8 address to be an ISA device.
- It was functional with a FreeBSD guest but caused the console to appear
on /dev/ttyu2 which was not intuitive.
The uart emulation is now independent of the bus on which it resides. Thus it
is possible to have uart devices on the PCI bus in addition to the legacy
COM1/COM2 devices behind the LPC bus.
The command line option to attach ISA COM1/COM2 ports to a virtual machine is
"-s <bus>,lpc -l com1,stdio".
The command line option to create a PCI-attached uart device is:
"-s <bus>,uart[,stdio]"
The command line option to create PCI-attached COM1/COM2 device is:
"-S <bus>,uart[,stdio]". This style of creating COM ports is deprecated.
