Tweak documentation to RB_ constants to reflect current use

2018-07-10T00:01:14Z

RB_ASKNAME is no longer instructions to the boot loader to request a prompt for which kernel to boot. Instead, it asks for what the root file system to use. RB_INITNAME is unused, and never has been in FreeBSD as far as I can tell. Remove it from the documentation and fix comment. RB_SELFTEST and RB_MINIROOT likewise (though they were completely undocumented). These last three constants can likely just be deleted as nothing references them (even to set useless bits). RB_ASKNAME doesn't actually survive reboot, however, so needs to be communicated to the bootloader via other means. If the bootloader sets it, though, it will be honored.

Define RB_POWERCYCLE

RB_POWERCYCLE instructs the platform to power off and then power back on a short time later, if that's possible. Otherwise, degrade to the RB_POWEROFF behavior. Sponsored by: Netflix

Renumber copyright clause 4

Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point. Submitted by: Jan Schaumann Pull Request: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/pull/96

Kernel part of reroot support - a way to change rootfs without reboot.

2015-09-18T17:32:22Z

Note that the mountlist manipulations are somewhat fragile, and not very pretty. The reason for this is to avoid changing vfs_mountroot(), which is (obviously) rather mission-critical, but not very well documented, and thus hard to test properly. It might be possible to rework it to use its own simple root mount mechanism instead of vfs_mountroot().
