Now close as fixed? 


Release note
============

From <https://www.freebsd.org/releases/13.1R/relnotes/#boot-loader>: 

> UEFI boot is improved for amd64. The loader detects whether the 
> loaded kernel can handle the in-place staging area (non-copying 
> mode). The default is copy_staging auto. Auto-detection can be 
> overridden, for example: with copy_staging enable, the loader 
> will unconditionally copy the staging area to 2M, regardless of 
> kernel capabilities. Also, the code to grow the staging area is 
> more robust; for growth to occur, it’s no longer necessary to 
> hand-tune and recompile the loader. (Sponsored by The FreeBSD 
> Foundation)

Hats off to Konstantin Belousov for this great improvement to FreeBSD, and to
the Foundation for sponsorship.
