[GSoC 2017] Original proposal: Port kernel Lua to FreeBSD

[Pedro Giffuni]

(Previous attempt to post this bounced back)

Concerning the bootloader,

There is a tiny (64k!) version of python:

So, I guess it's doable.

There was also a GSoC project to update the bootloader to ficl4.
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/socsvn/soc2015/clord/

The illumos bootlader already uses ficl4 BTW.

Cheers,

Pedro.
