The lua boot loader module manuals were getting pulled into search results for FreeBSD, but not for "boot" or "loader". Reword them to increase clarity for boot or loader searches, as well as the FreeBSD search term which we've been scoping to system topic overview manuals.

.Dt LOADER.CONF.LUA 5
|
|
.Os
|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm loader.conf.lua
|
|
.Nd system bootstrap Lua configuration information
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
When the lua-based
|
|
.Xr loader 8
|
|
encounters a filename in
|
|
.Va loader_conf_files
|
|
that has a
|
|
.Dq .lua
|
|
suffix, it will be loaded and executed by the lua interpreter in a limited
|
|
environment.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The limited environment does not contain the ability to reference or load other
|
|
lua modules.
|
|
Existing loader environment variables may be referenced as if they were already
|
|
defined global variables.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A lua configuration file may set any global variable, which will subsequently
|
|
be processed and added to the environment after execution of the configuration
|
|
file has completed.
|
|
Other than the
|
|
.Ar exec
|
|
setting, all variables described in
|
|
.Xr loader.conf 5
|
|
operate the same in the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
environment.
|
|
Note that the settings describing module options can only be set in the
|
|
environment; there is currently no way for a
|
|
.Pa loader.conf.lua
|
|
to fetch them.
|
|
At this time, global table and function values are ignored.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn config.buildenv
|
|
hook will be run with an empty environment provided to it that may be populated
|
|
by a custom
|
|
.Pa local.lua .
