            Bug ID: 234074
           Summary: Modules aren't loaded at boot time
           Product: Base System
           Version: 12.0-RELEASE
          Hardware: amd64
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: bugs at FreeBSD.org

Since upgrading from FreeBSD 11.2/amd64-RELEASE to 12.0/amd64-RELEASE (UEFI) I
have the problem, that, when booting, different modules that where configured
in /boot/loader.conf, weren’t loaded.

Sometimes it happens that zfs.ko was not loaded with the result, that the
computer keeps hanging on "mountroot>“. Even then when I enter
"zfs:zroot/ROOT/default“ nothing happens, as expected.

I had to boot several times, since the zfs.ko is loaded. But even then either
vmm.ko or nvidia-modeset.ko is missing.

This special problem never occurred in FreeBSD 11.2.

Here is the way I upgraded my machine:

freebsd-update upgrade -r 12.0-RELEASE
freebsd-update install
shutdown -r now
freebsd-update install
pkg-static install -f pkg
pkg upgrade
freebsd-update install
shutdown -r now

At this point the problem occurred. After that, I upgraded the zfs pools with
zpool upgrade and wrote the new boot code for the UEFI. But the problem still
exists.

AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X on ASUS ROG Strix X399-E, Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050
Ti

/boot/loader.conf:
kern.geom.label.disk_ident.enable="0"
kern.geom.label.gptid.enable="0"
vfs.zfs.min_auto_ashift=12
zfs_load="YES"
amdtemp_load="YES"
nvidia-modeset_load="YES"
vmm_load="YES"
vfs.zfs.arc_max="8G"
