zfs boot: try to set vfs.root.mountfrom from currdev as a fallback
This way with the new zfsloader there is no need to explicitly set zfs root filesystem either via vfs.root.mountfrom or fstab. It should be automatically picked up from currdev which is by default is set from bootfs.

Introduce a new option (BOOT_PROMPT_123) that lets enter the boot prompt only when typing the sequence "123" (opposite to the standard 'push any button' approach). That results useful when using serial lines sending garbage and leading to unwilling boot prompt appearence.

sys/boot/common.c ================= Extend the loader to parse the root file system mount options in /etc/fstab, and set a new loader variable vfs.root.mountfrom.options with these options. The root mount options must be a comma-delimited string, as specified in /etc/fstab. Only set the vfs.root.mountfrom.options variable if it has not been set in the environment.
sys/kern/vfs_mount.c ==================== When mounting the root file system, pass the mount options specified in vfs.root.mountfrom.options, but filter out "rw" and "noro", since the initial mount of the root file system must be done as "ro". While we are here, try to add a few hints to the mountroot prompt to give users and idea what might of gone wrong during mounting of the root file system.

Extend `autoboot_delay' handling - is this variable is set to -1 don't allow user to interrupt autoboot process at all. Currently, even when `autoboot_delay' is set to 0, loader(8) still allows autoboot process to be interrupted by pressing any key on the console when the loader reads kernel and modules from the disk. In some cases (i.e. untrusted environment) such behaviour is highly indesirable and user should not be allowed to interfere with the autoboot process at all.

Implement the long-awaited module->file cache database. A userland tool (kldxref(8)) keeps a cache of what modules and versions are inside what .ko files. I have tested this on both Alpha and i386.

Fix autoboot. Now autoboot *always* show the correct kernel name. It gets the name from the environment variable kernelname, which is set when a kernel is loaded. For this reason, autoboot will _first_ try to load a kernel, and only proceed with the wait prompt after that succeeds. If it fails, it will abort immediately.
While I understand some may think this behavior undesirable, I think it is, overall, the best thing to do, even if we do not consider the aesthetic issue. Notice that anyone using the default loader.rc already has the kernel loaded before autoboot.
On unload, unset kernelname.
Separate the code that tries to load a kernel from the list of options to the function loadakernel(). It is used by both boot() and autoboot().

The loader was written so that if /kernel was missing /kernel.old would be booted. Due to a bug, this wasn't happening.
There is still a lesser bug in that the loader decides which file to boot after the 10sec count down. This means the bootfile listed in the count down in is wrong in the case where the loader will boot /kernel.old.

Walk around the end of all the silly guessing of device types and unit numbers that we have been doing in the past, and read /etc/fstab off the proposed root filesystem to determine the actual device name and vfs type for the root filesystem. These are then exported to the kernel via the environment variable vfs.root.mountfrom.

Always output a linefeed when we've decided whether to boot or display a loader prompt; either we've said "Booting [%s]..." or we've received a non-line-feed character and need a '\n' anyway.

* Extend the memory available for the heap from 256k to 512k. * Embed the stack into the bss section for loader and netboot. This is required for netboot since otherwise the stack would be inside our heap. * Install loader and netboot in /boot by default. * Fix getbootfile so that it searches for a ',' instead of a ';' when terminating the filename.

Be helpful instead. - Expand tabs (badly) on the i386 video console. - Some minor cosmetic changes.

- VERBOSE_LS is obsolete, as the heap is much better behaved now. - Don't whine about nodes we can't stat(); these are usually symlinks that lead out of the filesystem. - Autoboot is now controlled by $autoboot_delay, which is a value in seconds or NO to disable autoboot. - Don't autoboot at the end of boot.conf if we have already tried. - Add a 'read' command to complement 'echo'. Both are still hidden. - Improve the 'source' command/function so that it is possible to source scripts off removable media. The entire script is read and saved before beginning execution. Script lines beginning with '@' will not be echoed when being executed. Script execution will normally terminate at the first error, however if the script line begins with '-' this behaviour is overriden for that command.

Bootloader update.
- Implement a new copyin/readin interface for loading modules. This allows the module loaders to become MI, reducing code duplication. - Simplify the search for an image activator for the loaded kernel. - Use the common module management code for all module metadata. - Add an 'unload' command that throws everything away. - Move the a.out module loader to MI code, add support for a.out kld modules.

This is the new unified bootstrap, sometimes known previously as the 'three-stage' bootstrap. There are a number of caveats with the code in its current state: - The i386 bootstrap only supports booting from a floppy. - The kernel and kld do not yet know how to deal with the extended information and module summary passed in. - PnP-based autodetection and demand loading of modules is not implemented. - i386 ELF kernel loading is not ready yet. - The i386 bootstrap is loaded via an ugly blockmap.
On the alpha, both net- and disk-booting (SRM console machines only) is supported. No blockmaps are used by this code.
