this by building a new box with the latest OS then migrating services

has to happen in-place. My plan is to go from
Recently a number of my production 12.0 systems have experienced what I can
only gather is a ZFS deadlock related to vnodes. It seems similar to the
relatively recent FreeBSD-EN-18:18.zfs (ZFS vnode reclaim deadlock)
problem. Previously the same systems were running 11.1-RELEASE without

usb/234503 contains a patch to broaden the scope of an existing scsi_da
quirk (attachment labeled "Patch to broaden quirk coverage to all
Chipfancier devices"). It's a minor change, but it's a showstopper for
