Thanks. ---- UEFI boot is improved for amd64. The loader detects whether the loaded kernel can handle the in-place staging area (non-copying mode). The default is `copy_staging auto`. Auto-detection can be overridden, for example: with `copy_staging enable`, the loader will unconditionally copy the staging area to 2M, regardless of kernel capabilities. Also, the code to grow the staging area is more robust; for growth to occur, it's no longer necessary to hand-tune and recompile the loader. _(Sponsored by the FreeBSD Foundation)_ ---- kib@ that is, paraphrased from the final paragraph of <https://www.freebsd.org/status/report-2021-07-2021-09/#_improved_amd64_uefi_boot>. Please, have I preserved the essence? In particular (original): > … detects if the loaded kernel can handle in-place staging area … – becomes (here): > … detects whether the loaded kernel can handle the in-place staging area … – correct? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
