"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.

We should have nextboot feature implemented in libsa zfs code.
To get there, I have created zfs_nextboot() implementation based on
two sources, our current simple textual string based approach with added
structured boot label PAD structure from OpenZFS.
Secondly, all nvlist details are moved to separate source file and
restructured a bit. This is done to provide base support to add nvlist
add/update feature in followup updates.
And finally, the zfsboot/gptzfsboot disk access functions are swapped to use
libi386 and libsa.

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.

Many components under stand/ had CLANG_NO_IAS added when Clang's
Integrated Assembler (IAS) did not handle .codeNN directives. Clang
gained support quite some time ago, and we can now build stand/ with
IAS.
Note that in some cases there are small differences in the generated
output, so CLANG_NO_IAS should be removed only after testing (or after
finding no differences in the output). For zfsldr I compared objdump
output between GNU as- and Clang IAS-built zfsldr and .text was
identical (changes were limited to the object's ELF headers and debug
info).

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.
On a FreeNAS mini XL, with geli encrypted drives the loader crashed in
geli_read().
When we iterate over the list of disks and allocate the zfsdsk structures we
don’t zero out the gdev pointer. In one case that resulted in geli_read()
(called on the bogus pointer) dividing by zero.
Use calloc() to ensure the zfsdsk structure is always zeroed, so the pointer is
initialised to NULL. As a side benefit it gets rid of one #ifdef
LOADER_GELI_SUPPORT.
Remove all cross references to zfsloader.8 and /boot/zfsloader.
Move ZFS specific info into loader.8.

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.

Reduce by 1 the number of crazy libraries we need in stand by moving
geli into libsa (where architecturally it belonged all along). This
just moves things around without any code changes.
Normally the serial console is not enabled until /boot.config is read and
we know how the serial console should be configured. Initialize the
consoles early in 'dual' mode (serial & keyboard) with a default serial
rate of 115200. Then serial is re-initialized once the disk is decrypted
and the /boot.config file can be read.
This allows the GELIBoot passphrase to be provided via the serial console.

weren't needed, and their existance interfered with things in subtle
ways. One of these subtle ways was that malloc could be different
based on what files were included when (even within the same .c file,
it turns out). Move to a single malloc implementation as well by
adding the calls to setheap() to gptboot.c and zfsboot.c. Once upon a
time, these boot loaders strove to not use libstand. However, with the
proliferation of features, that striving is too hard for too little
gain and lead to stupid mistakes.
This fixes the GELI-enabled (but not even using) boot environment. The
geli routines were calling libstand malloc but zfsboot.c and gptboot.c
were using the mini libstand malloc, so this failed when we tried to
probe for GELI partitions. Subtle changes in build order when moving
to self-contained stand build in r326593 toggled what it used from one
type to another due to odd nesting of the zfs implementation code that
differed subtly between zfsloader and zfsboot.
