Bug#786621: grub2: kfreebsd lacks support for xbd and virtio disks

[Steven Chamberlain]

Package: src:grub2
Version: 2.02~beta2-22
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Hi,

grub-probe (and thus grub-install and the grub-installer udeb) does not
recognise Xen xbd and KVM virtio disks on kfreebsd.  It is quite simple
to add their definitions to the #ifdef __FreeBSD_kernel__ section with
the attached patch to fix this.

I'll be making an upload with this fix to our jessie-kfreebsd suite,
but please also consider it for sid.  Thanks.
