FreeBSD 12.0 (current)

[gpatrick]

/boot is a link to /bootpool/boot and trying to add a loader.conf:

if_bridge_load="YES"
if_tap_load="YES"
aio_load="YES"

doesn't appear to work.

Also, adding

options VFS_AIO

to a custom kernel doesn't work because it doesn't know about that option. Although it is in aio(4)

/usr/src/sys/amd64/conf/CUSTOM: unknown option "VFS_AIO"
*** Error code 1

Stop.
make[1]: stopped in /usr/src
*** Error code 1

Stop.
make: stopped in /usr/src

Do grep -i of sample files in /usr/src/sys/conf/, your /sys/amd64/conf/ or other conf/ folders looking for aio and vfs.

/boot is a link to /bootpool/boot

Did you upgrade from an earlier installation with ZFS on root and an encrypted disk? Up until 11, the separate, unencrypted bootpool was necessary because the boot loader couldn't boot the encrypted pool.

aio(4) is now integrated and the kernel config option is no longer needed on 11. It is in the release notes and also web accessible man page for 11-RELEASE doesn't include VFS_AIO any more.
