Thanks.=20 ---- UEFI boot is improved for amd64. The loader detects whether the loaded kern= el 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 are= a to 2M, regardless of kernel capabilities. Also, the code to grow the staging a= rea 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_uef= i_boot>. Please, have I preserved the essence? In particular (original): > =E2=80=A6 detects if the loaded kernel can handle in-place staging area = =E2=80=A6 =E2=80=93 becomes (here): > =E2=80=A6 detects whether the loaded kernel can handle the in-place stagi= ng area =E2=80=A6 =E2=80=93 correct? --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
