Updates that do not require a reboot should run reroot
100%
Description
Hit a situation last night that seems like it might be rare but worth accounting for in the future: I updated a VM to test a change, but the update was base only and did not require a reboot. The previous copy of a page changed during the update had apparently been cached by the system and the updated page was not being presented to the browser. After restarting php-fpm it worked as expected. That should probably be done for any upgrade that touches the base pkg to be safe, and perhaps also restarting lighttpd would be a good idea.
Similarly, if it's not too hard to detect, it would be worthwhile to restart a daemon/service if it or one of its required dependencies is updated.

updates that do not require a reboot should probably call reroot ("reboot -r"), not completely thought through, but this is likely whenever the kernel package hasn't been updated.

All updates are requiring reboot nowadays while we didn't test reroot accordingly. IMO it's a big change for 2.3 series at this point and should be moved to 2.4

Done. pfSense-upgrade 0.11 on recent 2.4.0 system will do the trick

Doing a reroot style restart works nicely on its own, need to test it during an upgrade to know for sure how it handles that part.

If you want to try a reroot style upgrade, before run pfSense-upgrade just run:
# pkg unlock -g pfSense-kernel-\* # pkg upgrade -g pfSense-kernel-\*
This will remove kernel from the list of packages to be upgraded by pfSense-upgrade and then it will reroot

reroot crashes with ZFS. We will have to detect that case and fall back to a traditional reboot (or see if we can get the underlying FreeBSD bug fixed)

Looks like reroot doesn't work with ZFS without changing vfs.root.mountfrom
