zec 825d1f23be vimage(8) is a legacy CLI interface for managing jails associated with
network stack instances, which is provided for compatibility with
older applications.  This change brings it back to life in a followup
to the initial conversion of vimage to use the new jail(4)
userland-kernel API:

- when creating vimages via "vimage -c", by default turn on a few
options expected by legacy applications, such as allow operations on
raw sockets, FS mounts etc, and allow jail-related parameters to be
optionally configured.

- introduce the "-m" modifier which allows for configuring jail
parameters of existing vimages / vnet-jails.

- make "vimage name command ..." actually work.

- when reassigning ifnets to vnets using "vimage -i", attempt to rename
the ifnet as "ethXXX" on arrival in the target vnet.  Several legacy
applications are known to depend heavily on such behavior.

- vimage -l lists only jails associated with vnets.  The output is
sorted using vimage / jail names as keys.

- vimage -l by default searches only the current level in the jail
hierarchy.  Recursive listing can be requested via -r switch.

- vimage -l by default prints only jail names on each line, making
such output suitable for pipelining to other commands.  More verbose
output can be obtained via -v switch, and even more jail specific
information will be displayed if -j switch is turned on.

- there's no need to build vimage as statically linked, so update the
Makefile accordingly.

- update the vimage.8 man page.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc.  The ``world''
target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not
changed from the currently running version.  See:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html
for more information, including setting make(1) variables.

The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation
for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.  It is the successor of the ancient
LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a
pure reference and documentation file.
