Modified Files:
src/sys/kern: vfs_mount.c
Log Message:
vfs_mountroot(): don't needlessly grab a second reference to the root vnode
(the kernel never chdirs) nor a lock on it.
So the kernel chrooting to sysctl init.root is still ok?
How is that accomplished? I couldn't find the code and don't recall seeing
it.
sysctl -w init.root=/altroot
See the ZFS Root ramdisk:
https://nxr.netbsd.org/xref/src/distrib/common/zfsroot.rc#33
I tested kernel from yesterdays sources and it still works fine, so I guess
nothing was needed here.
