Yes, thanks. This looks like a good analysis. I would definitely
prefer to get master and 6-freebsd-12 into harmony. Then it is a
little simpler to discuss the other problems in libbsd.

Vijay had similar kind of success (and problems) as you did with
cherry-picking off of 6-freebsd-12. I think he made it a little
further. I guess one possible route forward would be to begin working
on this effort and share results, pushing to master when some
relatively stable milestones are reached.
This branch already contains an update to FreeBSD head 2020-02-09 (about
5 months of FreeBSD development):

https://github.com/RTEMS/rtems-libbsd/compare/master...sebhub:rtems-libbsd:master-update

If you start to cherry-pick things to the current master, this effort
from my side is probably wasted.

Would it be viable to still cherry-pick on to your updated master?

The farther these branches get from each other the more effort will be
wasted by everyone. Either we continue to maintain two branches, or we
at some point decide how to continue from this master branch. It would
be good to know if NFSv4 is indeed fully supported for EPICS users
without the changes made by Chris in 6-freebsd-12.

The first four patches (up to and including "ntp: Port to RTEMS") are ready to get integrated. The two NFS/VFS patches are not ready.

The update to FreeBSD head 2020-02-09 was not arbitrary. The 6-freebsd-12 branch is based on FreeBSD stable/12 2020-02-10. This should make it easier to cherry pick changes from 6-freebsd-12 to master for example for the Xilinx drivers.
