* beinstall.sh: Use bectl instead of beadm by defaultMateusz Piotrowski2020-10-301-5/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch also introduces an environment variable BE_UTILITY, which can be used to specify the utility to use for managing ZFS boot environments (which can be either bectl or beadm). While here, fix some typos in the manual page and remove beadm from section "SEE ALSO".

* add ability to set watchdog timeout for a shutdownAndriy Gapon2019-10-031-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change allows to specify a watchdog(9) timeout for a system shutdown. The timeout is activated when the watchdogd daemon is stopped. The idea is to a prevent any indefinite hang during late stages of the shutdown. The feature is implemented in rc.d/watchdogd, it builds upon watchdogd -x option. Note that the shutdown timeout is not actiavted when the watchdogd service is individually stopped by an operator. It is also not activated for the 'shutdown' to the single-user mode. In those cases it is assumed that the operator knows what they are doing and they have means to recover the system should it hang. Significant subchanges and implementation details: - the argument to rc.shutdown, completely unused before, is assigned to rc_shutdown variable that can be inspected by rc scripts - init(8) passes "single" or "reboot" as the argument, this is not changed - the argument is not mandatory and if it is not set then rc_shutdown is set to "unspecified" - however, the default jail management scripts and jail configuration examples have been updated to pass "jail" to rc.shutdown, just in case - the new timeout can be set via watchdogd_shutdown_timeout rc option - for consistency, the regular timeout can now be set via watchdogd_timeout rc option - watchdogd_shutdown_timeout and watchdogd_timeout override timeout specifications in watchdogd_flags - existing configurations, where the new rc options are not set, should keep working as before I am not particularly wed to any of the implementation specifics. I am open to changing or removing any of them as long as the provided functionality is the same (or very close) to the proposed one. For example, I think it can be implemented without using watchdogd -x, by means of watchdog(1) alone. In that case there would be a small window between stopping watchdogd and running watchdog, but I think that that is acceptable.

* rc.subr: Provide rc_service variable for service scriptsKyle Evans2019-01-051-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some rc scripts in ports (e.g. uwsgi, apache, openvpn) allow for 'application profiles' that usually require the rc script to be invoked again for each active profile. Because there's no consistent way to determine the path because it differs between manual/service(8) invocations and /etc/rc invocations, this leads to patterns like these: - www/uwsgi hardcodes the script path - security/openvpn guesses either $_file or $0 based on $0 = /etc/rc Instead of forcing rc scripts to guess, provide an rc_service variable to the scripts that gets set appropriately both for direct execution or when a script is being executed via run_rc_script (e.g. /etc/rc). This is our analog of an OpenRC variable with the same name, different case (RC_SERVICE).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the installer uses pre-created 800KB FAT12 filesystems that it dd's onto the ESP partition. This changeset improves that by having the installer generate a FAT32 filesystem directly onto the ESP using newfs_msdos and then copying loader.efi into /EFI/freebsd. For live installs it then runs efibootmgr to add a FreeBSD boot entry in the BIOS.
