- This commit adds native FreeBSD/arm release build support without
requiring out-of-tree utilities.
- Part of this merge removes the WANDBOARD-{SOLO,DUAL,QUAD} kernel
configuration files, for which the IMX6 kernel configuration file
should be used instead.
- The resulting images have a 'freebsd' user (password 'freebsd'),
to allow ssh(1) access when console access is not available (VGA
or serial). The default 'root' user password is set to 'root'.
- The /etc/ttys file for arm images now enable both ttyv0 and ttyu0
by default.

GPT scheme. UEFI needs to know the unique partition GUID
with GPT, which changes each time. Specifically, the QEMU
EFI BIOS file has this hard-coded.[1]
Since the GPT labels are now unavailable, unconditionally
label the root filesystem as 'rootfs' with newfs(8), since
it does not hurt anything anywhere else. For the arm64 case,
'/' is mounted from /dev/ufs/rootfs; for all other VM images,
'/' is mounted from /dev/gpt/rootfs.
Unfortunately, since the /dev/gpt/swapfs label is also lost,
set NOSWAP=1 for the arm64/aarch64 images. This is temporary,
until I figure out a scalable solution to this. But, a certain

copy the userland from one md(4)-mounted filesystem to a clean

removed from resulting in an unclean filesystem. When newfs(8)
creates the first filesystem with journaled soft-updates enabled,
the /.sujournal file in the new filesystem cannot be overwritten

To avoid this particular error case, do not enable journaled

This is a temporary workaround until the elftoolchain's version
of strip is fixed:
The previous (GNU) strip, when acting on a file with multiple links,
would modify the one and only file in place (which means creating
a new stripped copy, and then writing it back to the original).
The new version from elftoolchain creates the new file and then
unlinks the old one and renames the new.
With multiple hard links, the original remains alive. In the /stand
directory, this ends up creating 80+ copies of the same file.
not removed or truncated to a zero-size file, which
if used to create more than one disk image format, can
result in accidental pollution of the target formatted
disk image.
Instead of using a single VMBASE image (vm.img, by
default), use a single base file for each format, named
as VMFORMAT.img, which produces VMBASE.VMFORMAT as the
final formatted image.

them into the image.
This simplifies the code by avoiding the need to copy /etc/resolv.conf
into the image and then delete it later, and makes it possible to cross
build (e.g., to create an amd64 image when running on i386 hardware; or
in the future for building disk images for embedded platforms).
Because pkg was implicitly installed when VM_EXTRA_PACKAGES was non-empty,
add it to VM_EXTRA_PACKAGES in azure.conf and openstack.conf to maintain
the current behaviour.
By default repo-FreeBSD.sqlite is copied into the image, (a) to match
previous behaviour, where the file would be downloaded by the chrooted
pkg invocation; and (b) because it may be useful for testing purposes,
e.g., to see why a package didn't get installed. Because this file is
large (46 MB) and not likely to be useful in -RELEASE images which are
being launched into Clouds several months later, it can be disabled by
setting NOREPOSQLITE.
As far as I know this commit does not change the disk images produced in
any filesystem-visible way.
no swap space should be created in the image. This will be used by EC2
builds, since FreeBSD/EC2 allocates swap space on "ephemeral" disks which
are physically attached to the Xen host node.
