This is probably a coincidence. Most of the important stuff that
happens in loader is independent of the interpreter that's built into
it, the exceptions being that the interpreter is tasked with reading
loader.conf(5) and sets up some ACPI stuff on x86 BIOS boots.

LUA loader: non UEFI boxes have weird ssh output

2018-08-19 Thread O. Hartmann
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA512

Just updated some boxes to 12-CURRENT r338057 and I face a very strange 
behaviour:

on non-UEFI booting boxes (older Fujitsu and Dell servers from 2008/2009, 
PCengine APU
2C4), logging in via ssh reveals broken output: even top does show nothing, the 
box is
stuck. Calling vi(1) on some files does alos freeze the terminal - no response, 
nothing.
On the PCengine, also applications like Asterisk do not work anymore - not 
output on the
console. The program is running, but stopped servicing. Only the serial console 
to some
of the "ssd-brain-dead" systems work, sshd is dead. This isn't the case on UEFI 
boxes
with the very same revision (r338057).

Is this a coincidence or is this/could this related to the switch to LUA loader?
