Thanks for trying it out.

This panic means the memory map does not include usable memory (for
the kernel) with physaddr 0.
if (physmap[i] == 0x) {
basemem = physmap[i + 1] / 1024;
basemem == 0 produces the panic.
The requirement for a usable memory range with physaddr 0 doesn't hold
for UEFI, and the md startup hasn't yet been reworked to accommodate
that.

Pausing the video immediately after the kernel starts confirms this:
the UEFI firmware has RuntimeServicesData at physaddr 0, so not
available for kernel use.
Do you mind submitting a PR to keep track of this issue?

UEFI boot failure: BIOS smap did not include a basemem segment!
Hello! I tried the following FreeBSD snapshot on my Clevo W860CU with UEFI enabled: FreeBSD-11.0-CURRENT-amd64-20140903-r270990-memstick.img The boot fails early with the following error: panic: BIOS smap did not include a basemem segment! The full picture of the panic is here: https://people.freebsd.org/~dumbbell/uefi/FreeBSD-Clevo-W860CU-UEFI-no-basemem-segment.jpg Here's a video of a verbose boot (the quality is really low, I can try to redo it if this one doesn't help): http://www.dumbbell.fr/~dumbbell/FreeBSD-Clevo-W860CU-UEFI-no-basemem-segment.mov When I tried UEFI a couple years ago (with Windows 7), it could boot. -- Jean-Sébastien Pédron signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
