This reverts the i386 part of r342283, "Rework UEFI ESP generation", and
the followup commit in r342690.
r342283 added an ESP to the i386 memstick image, and as a side effect
made the ESP the active partition, not the bootcode-containing UFS
partition. As a result the i386 memstick images would not boot in
either UEFI or legacy mode - UEFI failed because we do not support i386
UEFI booting, and legacy mode failed because the partition with legacy
bootcode was not active.
The bootcode-containing UFS partition is again the only, and active,
partition.

FreeBSD is in the process of switching from nvd(4) to nda(4) as the disk

since existing systems may have /dev/nvd* hard-coded e.g. in /etc/fstab;
however, there's no reason to not change the default in HEAD for *new*
systems.
At present I have no intention of MFCing this to stable branches, since

We don't produce these anymore as of r356797, remove the remnant in
generate-ucl.sh that accounted for them. This isn't strictly necessary, but
future work is needed for the various packages that can be generated on a
lib build.
Namely, we may produce -development packages for private/internal libs that
should be installed but won't have the base FreeBSD-libfoo pkg to depend on
because it's internal (e.g. liby, libpmcstat, libifconfig) but we want the
headers installed. It may be a better move to just shove these into
-runtime-development instead, but if not then we've just simplified the
cases that need to take private/internal libs into account.

This cuts out a large chunk of duplicated *.ucl files that just needed
dependencies tacked on, and gives generate-ucl.sh some leeway in case a
future pkg may need more than one dependency.
Run-through to determine which ones could simply be removed done with for i
in *.ucl; do diff -U3 template.ucl ${i}; done | less and inspecting for any
differences beyond just adding deps at the end. The remaining ucl files are
basically all differently-licensed, require scripts, or are marked vital.
I've opted to remove %PKGDEPS% entirely without regard for third-party ucl,
as pkgbase is not yet considered production. However, I do not hold a strong
position on this and there is approximately 0 chance it will return.

doesn't have any dependencies, but do so now that we would otherwise be

The original intention for caroot was to be packaged separately, perhaps so
that users can have a more/less conservative upgrade policy for this
separated from the rest of base.
secure/caroot/Makefile doesn't have anything interesting to package, but its
subdirectories might. Move the PACKAGE= to Makefile.inc so both blacklisted
and trusted get packaged consistently into the correct one rather than the
default -utilities. Also tag the directories for package=caroot, as they
could also be empty; blacklisted is empty by default, but trusted is not.
Add a post-install script to do certctl rehash, along with a note should we
eventually come up with a way to detect that files have been added or
removed that requires a rehash.
-caroot gets a dependency on -utilities, as that's where we provide certctl
at the moment. We can perhaps reconsider this and put certctl into this

unconditionally invoke certctl so let's hold off for now.

A good number of BIOSes have trouble booting from GPT in non-UEFI mode.
This is commonly reported with Lenovo desktops and laptops (including
X220, X230, T430, and E31) and Dell systems. Although UEFI is the
preferred amd64 boot method on recent hardware, older hardware does not
support UEFI, a user may wish to boot via BIOS/CSM, and some systems
that support UEFI fail to boot FreeBSD via UEFI (such as an old
AMD FX-6100 that I have).
With this change amd64 memsticks remain dual-mode (booting from either
UEFI or CSM); the partitioning type is just switched from GPT to MBR.
The "vestigial swap partition" in the GPT scheme was added in r265017 to
work around some issue with loader's GPT support, so we should not need
it when using MBR.
There is some concern that future UEFI systems may not boot from MBR,
but I am not aware of any today. In any case the likely path forward
for our installers is to migrate to CD/USB combo images, and if it
becomes necessary introduce a separate memstick specifically for the
MBR BIOS/CSM case.

The reason is that it's required for every image that's being cross-built,

the script is noop if the linker.hints already exists.

with dependencies, eg cfiscsi.ko.
This is a minimal fix for ARM images, in order to safely MFC it before
11.2-RELEASE. Afterwards, however, I believe we should actually just change
the default (as in, etc/defaults/rc.conf). The reason is that it's required
for every image that's being cross-built, as kldxref(1) cannot handle files
for non-native architectures. For the one that is not - amd64 - having it

The long-term solution would be to rewrite kldxref(1) to handle other
architectures, and generate linker.hints at build time.

GCE_LICENSE is unset by default, as it primarily pertains to images
produced by the FreeBSD Project, but for downstream FreeBSD consumers,
it can be set in the make(1) environment in the format of:

The "license" is not a license, per se, but required metadata that
is required by the GCE marketplace. For the FreeBSD Project, the
license name is simply 'freebsd', with the description of 'FreeBSD'.

Recent changes to makefs and mkimg have led to situations where the

failures. Provide a way to work around this that doesn't require the

With this change mkisoimages.sh will honour the $ETDUMP, $MAKEFS and $MKIMG

This keeps the existing El Torito entries for BIOS and UEFI boot code and
adds a GPT in the ISO image's System Area containing boot code for BIOS that
will load /boot/loader from the ISO filesystem and execute it. We then use
etdump to find the EFI System Partition image in the El Torito catalog and
add an entry to the GPT that allows EFI to find it.

Some BIOSes have trouble booting from GPT in non-UEFI mode. This is
commonly reported with Lenovo laptops, including my x220. As we do not
currently support booting FreeBSD/i386 via UEFI there's no reason to
prefer GPT.
The "vestigial swap partition" was added in r265017 to work around an
issue with loader's GPT support, so we should not need it when using
MBR.
We may want to make the same change to amd64, although the issue there is
mitigated by such systems booting via UEFI in the common case.

UEFI booting requires an EFI System Partition (ESP). On most storage devices
this will be in a specific partition type. To allow booting from CD/ISO
filesystems, UEFI will look for an ESP in the form of a FAT filesystem image
embedded in the image. Historically FreeBSD has added one of these to its
amd64 ISO images but marked it as simply another i386 boot image. Luckily for
us most UEFI implementations are rather forgiving and work this out for us.
This change adds the ability to mark a boot image as being a UEFI image. It
also modifies our ISO generation to use this marking for the UEFI image we
embed.

kernel.ucl uses a hardcoded boot/kernel for kldxref, which is the incorrect
directory when we're installing extra kernels that aren't the "default"
kernel (placed at boot/kernel).
Fix this by instead using a new %KERNELDIR% that we now replace in
Makefile.inc1 with "kernel" for the default kernel and "kernel.${_kernel}"
for these extra kernels so that, e.g. /boot/kernel.SHIVA, will get properly
kldxref'd upon update and avoid outdated linker.hints.

The Pine64 root filesystem was incorrectly created directly on the MBR
partition. This can cause the loader to get confused when loading the
kernel from this filesystem.
The loader will see this as a small partition meaning later checks to
ensure it doesn't read past the end of the disk incorrectly report a
failure. This seems to work mostly by accident with the released images as
they are smaller than the reported size, however after growfs has run the
image may no longer boot.
