****************************** SPECIAL WARNING: ******************************
-20180319:
- For u-boot based arm64 UEFI systems: the UEFI loader(8), loader.efi,
- should be updated in conjunction with installing a new kernel after
- r330868. The kernel, after this revision, will be more lenient when
- mapping addresses for UEFI Runtime Services and this may result in a
- kernel panic without the corresponding loader(8) update. If you have a
- recent kernel, you can do a installkernel / installworld and then reboot
- as there's no recent syscall changes. If you have an older kernel and/or
- a 11.x system, the following sequence is safe:
- % make buildworld
- % make buildkernel
- % sudo make installkernel
- % cd stand
- % sudo make install
- % sudo reboot
- ...
- % sudo make installworld

FreeBSD boot loader enhanced with Lua scripting. It's purely opt-in for
now by building WITH_LOADER_LUA and WITHOUT_FORTH in /etc/src.conf.
