            Bug ID: 233310
           Summary: jail.conf system should be modularized to conf.d
                    approach
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: conf
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: rocky@herveybayaustralia.com.au

The jail.conf system seems to be rather useful in and of itself, but given =
the
approach of docker, xorg, openldap, and such, shouldn't this be easier to d=
rop
and replace config like in the conf.d format rather than appending the one =
conf
file? I believe even rc has this approach available using rc.conf.d system.

This would make much more sense given that jails are individual objects in =
the
system. Individual conf files allow quicker deployment, copy and modify, and
updates to the individual jail rather than the whole conf file - especially=
 by
automation tools, where it is likely you'd want better protection to indivi=
dual
jails rather than bork the lot if something goes sideways if the one conf f=
ile
is modified.
