FILE REMOVED
Remove booting from kernels in raw/qcow2 images Diff and (slightly tweaked) text below from Dave Voutila < dave at sisu dot io >, thanks! -- Since 6.7 switched to FFS2 as the default filesystem for new installs, the ability for vmd(8) to load a kernel and boot.conf from a disk image directly (without SeaBIOS) has been broken. A diff from tb to add FFS2 support never mdae it into the tree. On 5th Jan 2021, new ramdisks for amd64 have started shipping gzipped, breaking the ability to load the bsd.rd directly as a kernel image for a vmd guest without first uncompressing the image. Using BIOS works, the FFS2 change happend ten months ago and few if any have complained about the breakage. vmctl(8) is still vague about supporting it per its man page and one still has to pass the disk image twice as a "-b" and "-d" argument to boot an OpenBSD guest *without* BIOS. Josh Rickmar reported the gzip issue on bugs@ and provided patches to add support for compressed ramdisks and kernel images. The easiest way to do so is to drop support for FFS images since they require a call to fmemopen(3) while all the other logic uses fopen(3)/fdopen(3) calls and a file descriptor. It is much easier to get thsoe patches merged if they don't have to account for extracting files from disk images. -- No objections anyone "Removing it makes sense" reyk (who wrote the FFS module) OK mlarkin

Move the {qcow2,raw} create functions from vmctl into vmd/vio{qcow2,raw}.c
This way they are in the appropriate place and code can be shared with vmd.

Add support for qcow2 base images (external snapshots). This works is from Ori Bernstein, committing on his behalf: Add support to vmd for external snapshots. That is, snapshots that are derived from a base image. Data lookups start in the derived image, and if the derived image does not contain some data, the search proceeds ot the base image. Multiple derived images may exist off of a single base image. A limitation of this format is that modifying the base image will corrupt the derived image. This change also adds support for creating disk derived disk images to vmctl. To use it: vmctl create derived.qcow2 -s 16G -b base.qcow2 From Ori Bernstein OK mlarkin@ reyk@

Implement basic support for boot.conf(8) on the disk image. Like the real boot loader, load and parse hd0a:/etc/boot.conf from the first disk and fall back to /bsd. Not all boot loader options are supported, but it at least does set device, set image, and boot -acds (eg. for booting single-user). For example, it can now boot install60.fs that includes a boot.conf with "set image /6.0/amd64/bsd.rd": vmctl start install -c -d install60.fs -d OpenBSD.img This pseudo-bootloader is only needed without BIOS and could potentially be replaced in the future.

Branch: MAIN
Add support for booting the kernel from the disk image. This make the kernel/-k argument optional and, if not specified, tries to find the /bsd kernel in the primary hd0a partition of the first disk image itself. It doesn't support hd0a:/etc/boot.conf yet, and it is no BIOS or full boot loader, but it makes booting and handling of VMs a bit easier - booting an external kernel is still supported. The UFS file system code ufs.c is directly from libsa which is also used by the real boot loader. The code compiles with a few signedness warning which will be fixed separately. OK mlarkin@
