The branch stable/12 has been updated by kevans: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/src/commit/?id=c3c739c25663dec34369027edfe3cd0d85693096 commit c3c739c25663dec34369027edfe3cd0d85693096 Author: Rebecca Cran <bcran@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2018-12-20 19:27:46 +0000 Commit: Kyle Evans <kevans@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2021-10-08 02:41:01 +0000 Wait a maximum of 300 seconds for network send/recv in libsa The reason for this change is that currently, a send/recv takes many hours to time out. This is suboptimal in the bootloader because it means for example that NFS will take hours to fail before allowing subsequent access methods such as gzip to be tried. Setting MAXWAIT to 300 seconds (5 minutes) still allows slow connections of 1Mb to be used to download a 30MB kernel file.
