In that case, and given where u9 is, my advise is to just remove the property from the back-port entirely.

What's the integration deadline? If you can wait until Wednesday, this can probably be done with an expedited review (there seems to be business justification), so you could have approval by then.

In my opinion, changing the binding of 2008/760 is not entirely
unreasonable, but 2008/760 makes references to fast reboot, and so
you're not really backporting the entire thing, but a subset of it.

I suspect it may simply be better to run this as a separate fast track
with a cross reference to 2008/760. Indeed, it seems that what you want
to do for *this* case is significant enough that it ought to be
described in a case of its own anyway.

Hi,

I request to change the PSARC 2008/760 binding from micro to patch.
Fast reboot related properties will not be backported.

boot-config service can also be used by consumers other than
fast-reboot
project.

Thanks,
Gangadhar
Can you please elaborate how else you'd like to see this service used?

We are fixing the issue described in 6276367. As part of the S10 fix
we backport the boot-config service.

Summary of 6276367:

On Solaris systems, boot-archive inconsistencies during boot up causes
the system to enter into sulogin mode.
System administrators have to update the boot archive and then reboot
the system. We are trying to automate this process for an extent as
part of the
fix. We use boot-config service to add a property
'trust-bios-boot-device' (private property) and have a check for this
property during boot up to
decide on whether to trust the default grub entry of the system in
case of x86.

S10 boot-config.xml:
http://jurassic.eng/net/ssaesrv.eng/export/users/gm149974/scratch/auto_boot_archive_feature/webrev/usr/src/cmd/halt/smf/boot-config.xml.html


Its usage in :
http://jurassic.eng/net/ssaesrv.eng/export/users/gm149974/scratch/auto_boot_archive_feature/webrev/usr/src/cmd/svc/milestone/fs-usr.sdiff.html


The PSARC case only had a minor binding approval. Now I am requesting
for patch binding.

Thanks,
Gangadhar
