The sole purpose of this change is to make sure that sizeof produces
"canonical" sizes for these structures. This is to avoid triggering
bugs in the BIOSes that properly handle only the canonical values of
input length provided to INT 13h AH=48h.
The canonical sizes are: 30 for v2, 66 for v3, etc.
Buggy BIOS code probably looks like:
if (input_length > 30) { /* > v2 */
assume that input length is 66 /* assume v3 or later */
}
This should fix boot problems at least on Supermicro X8DT6 and possibly
on P410i Smart Array Controller (as found in e.g. HP DL360 G7).

disk_open(). Very often this is called several times for one file.
This leads to reading partition table metadata for each call. To
reduce the number of disk I/O we have a simple block cache, but it
is very dumb and more than half of I/O operations related to reading
metadata, misses this cache.
Introduce new cache layer to resolve this problem. It is independent
and doesn't need initialization like bcache, and will work by default
for all loaders which use the new DISK API. A successful disk_open()
call to each new disk or partition produces new entry in the cache.
Even more, when disk was already open, now opening of any nested
partitions does not require reading top level partition table.
So, if without this cache, partition table metadata was read around
20-50 times during boot, now it reads only once. This affects the booting
from GPT and MBR from the UFS.
Use of __builtin_constant_p in a function that is only called via
a pointer is a good example of how out-of-date it was.

In zfs loader zfs device name format now is "zfs:pool/fs",
fully qualified file path is "zfs:pool/fs:/path/to/file"
loader allows accessing files from various pools and filesystems as well
as changing currdev to a different pool/filesystem.
zfsboot accepts kernel/loader name in a format pool:fs:path/to/file or,
as before, pool:path/to/file; in the latter case a default filesystem
is used (pool root or bootfs). zfsboot passes guids of the selected
pool and dataset to zfsloader to be used as its defaults.
zfs support should be architecture independent and is provided
in a separate library, but architectures wishing to use this zfs support
still have to provide some glue code and their devdesc should be
compatible with zfs_devdesc.
arch_zfs_probe method is used to discover all disk devices that may
be part of ZFS pool(s).
libi386 unconditionally includes zfs support, but some zfs-specific
functions are stubbed out as weak symbols. The strong definitions
are provided in libzfsboot.
This change mean that the size of i386_devspec becomes larger
to match zfs_devspec.
Backward-compatibility shims are provided for recently added sparc64
zfs boot support. Currently that architecture still works the old
way and does not support the new features.

- clear up pool root filesystem vs pool bootfs filesystem distinction
- update sparc64 support

device path information you have to set the length of the device
path information as an input (along with probably checking the actual
EDD version to see which size one should use as the device path
information is variable-length). This fixes data smashing problems
from passing an EDD 3 structure to BIOSes supporting EDD 4.

unhappy (probably they don't handle crossing the 64k boundary, etc.).
Fix this by changing zfsldr to use a loop reading from the disk one
sector at a time. To avoid trashing the saved copy of the MBR which is
used for disk I/O, read zfsboot2 at address 0x9000. This has the
advantage that BTX no longer needs to be relocated as it is read into
the correct location. However, the loop to relocate zfsboot2.bin can
now cross a 64k boundary, so change it to use relative segments instead.
(This will need further work if zfsboot2.bin ever exceeds 64k.)
While here, stop storing a relocated copy of zfsldr at 0x700. This was
only used by the xread hack which has recently been removed (and even
that use was dubious). Also, include the BIOS error code as hex when
reporting read errors to aid in debugging.
Much thanks to Henri Hennebert for patiently testing various iterations
of the patch as well as fixing the zfsboot2.bin relocation to use
relative segments.
