            Bug ID: 234317
           Summary: efibootmgr(8): -b and -Bootvar options documented in
                    man page and usage don't exist
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: bcran at FreeBSD.org

Both efibootmgr(8) man page and the usage text document a -b or -Bootvar option
that allows a user to specify the boot entry number to be created. However,
they haven't been implemented in the code: using the option "-b" causes
efibootmgr to report it's an invalid argument, and while -Bootvar doesn't
generate an error, -Bfoo is also accepted, suggesting it gets interpreted as -B
(delete bootvar).
