Right now the UX for installing NixOS on a headless system is very bad.
To enable sshd without physical steps users have to have either physical
access or need to be very knowledge-able to figure out how to modify the
installation image by hand to put an `sshd.service` symlink in the
right directory in /nix/store. This is in particular a problem on ARM
SBCs (single board computer) but also other hardware where network is
the only meaningful way to access the hardware.
This commit enables sshd by default. This does not give anyone access to
the NixOS installer since by default. There is no user with a non-empty
password or key. It makes it easy however to add ssh keys to the
installation image (usb stick, sd-card on arm boards) by simply mounting
it and adding a keys to `/root/.ssh/authorized_keys`.
Importantly this should not require nix/nixos on the machine that
prepare the installation device and even feasiable on non-linux systems
by using ext4 third party drivers.
Potential new threats: Since this enables sshd by default a
potential bug in openssh could lead to remote code execution. Openssh
has a very good track-record over the last 20 years, which makes it
far more likely that Linux itself would have a remote code execution
vulnerability. It is trusted by millions of servers on many operating
systems to be exposed to the internet by default.

xss-lock needs XDG_SESSION_ID to respond to loginctl lock-session(s)
(and possibly other session operations such as idle hint management).
This change adds XDG_SESSION_ID to the list of imported environment

We apparently didn't fit anymore. I don't think this test is meant
to (also) check closure size.
Note: as of this commit, the test is blocked by a fontconfig problem,
so I tested with that merge temporarily reverted.
This goes through a recent example of 19.09 (because the workflow
should be everchanging, so our example needs to be recent).
Lots of changes, just read idk.
Attempting to reuse keys on a basis different to the cert (AKA,
storing the key in a directory with a hashed name different to
the cert it is associated with) was ineffective since when
"lego run" is used it will ALWAYS generate a new key. This causes
issues when you revert changes since your "reused" key will not
be the one associated with the old cert. As such, I tore out the
whole keyDir implementation.
As for the race condition, checking the mtime of the cert file
was not sufficient to detect changes. In testing, selfsigned
and full certs could be generated/installed within 1 second of
each other. cmp is now used instead.
Also, I removed the nginx/httpd reload waiters in favour of
simple retry logic for the curl-based tests
The cyclic dependency of systemd → cryptsetup → lvm2 → udev=systemd
needs to be broken somewhere. The previous strategy of building
cryptsetup with an lvm2 built without udev (#66856) caused the
installer.luksroot test to fail. Instead, build lvm2 with a udev built
without cryptsetup.
Fixes#96479.

Testing of certs failed randomly when the web server was still
returning old certs even after the reload was "complete". This was
because the reload commands send process signals and do not wait
for the worker processes to restart. This commit adds log watchers
which wait for the worker processes to be restarted.
- Use an acme user and group, allow group override only
- Use hashes to determine when certs actually need to regenerate
- Avoid running lego more than necessary
- Harden permissions
- Support "systemctl clean" for cert regeneration
- Support reuse of keys between some configuration changes
- Permissions fix services solves for previously root owned certs
- Add a note about multiple account creation and emails
- Migrate extraDomains to a list
- Deprecate user option
- Use minica for self-signed certs
- Rewrite all tests
I thought of a few more cases where things may go wrong,
and added tests to cover them. In particular, the web server
reload services were depending on the target - which stays alive,
meaning that the renewal timer wouldn't be triggering a reload
and old certs would stay on the web servers.
I encountered some problems ensuring that the reload took place
without accidently triggering it as part of the test. The sync
commands I added ended up being essential and I'm not sure why,
it seems like either node.succeed ends too early or there's an
oddity of the vm's filesystem I'm not aware of.
- Fix duplicate systemd rules on reload services
Since useACMEHost is not unique to every vhost, if one cert
was reused many times it would create duplicate entries in
${server}-config-reload.service for wants, before and
ConditionPathExists
This allows the user to configure systemd tmpfiles.d via
`environment.etc."tmpfiles.d/X.conf".text = "..."`, which after #93073
causes permission denied (with new X.conf):
```
ln: failed to create symbolic link '/nix/store/...-etc/etc/tmpfiles.d/X.conf': Permission denied
builder for '/nix/store/...-etc.drv' failed with exit code 1
```
or collision between environment.etc and systemd-default-tmpfiles
packages (with existing X.conf, such as tmp.conf):
```
duplicate entry tmpfiles.d/tmp.conf -> /nix/store/...-etc-tmp.conf
mismatched duplicate entry /nix/store/...-systemd-246/example/tmpfiles.d/tmp.conf <-> /nix/store/...-etc-tmp.conf

The original idea for this test was, on top of providing a networkd
test, to provide newcomers with a sample configuration they could use
to get started with networkd.
That's precisely why we were doing this systemd tmpfile dance in the
first place. It was a convenient way to create a runtime file with a
specific mode and owner.
Sadly, this tmpfile rule made the test flaky. There's a race condition
between the wireguard interface configured by systemd-networkd and
systemd-tmpfiles-setup.
Sometimes, networkd is going to try loading the wireguard private key
file *before* the said file gets created by systemd-tmpfiles.
A perfect solution here would be to create a "After" dependency
between wg0.netdev and systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service. Sadly, it is
currently impossible to create such a dependency between a
networkd-specific unit and a service.
We're removing this tmp file in favor of pointing networkd directly to
the Nix store. This is clearly something that shouldn't be done in the
real world for a private file: the store is world-readable. However,
this is the only way I found to fix this test flakiness for now.
The Deepin Desktop Environment (DDE) is not yet fully packaged in
nixpkgs and it has shown a very difficult task to complete, as
discussed in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/94870. The
conclusion is that it is better to completely remove it.
In `systemd-243` the option `FwMark` in the `[WireGuard]` section of
a `.netdev`-unit has been renamed to `FirewallMark`[1]. Due to the
removal of deprecated options in our `networkd` module[2] the evaluation
of this test doesn't work.
Renaming the option to its new name fixes the issue.

The incompatibility does not seem to exist any more: programs linked against fc 2.12
on fc 2.14 system seem to at least display text, even while printing tons of errors
(as long as you generate fc cache manually), and same thing the other way around.
Hopefully it will not be an issue in the future.
$EDITOR is allowed to contain flags, so it is important to allow the
shell to split this normally. For example, Sublime Text needs to be
passed --wait, since otherwise it will daemonise.
$NIXOS_CONFIG can be set to a directory, in which case the file used
is $NIXOS_CONFIG/default.nix. This updates 'nixos-rebuild edit' to
handle that case correctly.
With the Perl driver, machine.sleep(N) was doing a sleep on the guest
machine instead of the host machine. The new Python test driver however
uses time.sleep(), which instead sleeps on the host.
While this shouldn't make a difference most of the time, it *does*
however make a huge difference if the test machine is loaded and you're
sleeping for a minimum duration of eg. an animation.
I stumbled on this while porting most of all my tests to the new Python
test driver and particularily my video game tests failed on a fairly
loaded machine, whereas they don't with the Perl test driver.
Switching the sleep() method to sleep on the guest instead of the host
fixes this.

This allows to perform `dd if= of=$img` after the image is built
which is handy to add e.g. uBoot SPL to the built image.
Instructions for some ARM boards sometimes contain this step
that needs to be performed manually, with this patch it can be
part of the nix file used to built the image.

According to RFC4291[1], 2001:db8:: is the anycast address for the
prefix and will be answered by all routers responsible for this prefix.
This means that before the iputils bump, the ping from client to isp was
answered by the router and not by the ISP machine. Switching away from
the anycast address fixes this issue.

declare -a is not sufficient to make the array variable actually
exist, which resulted in the script failing when the target object did
not have any DT_NEEDED entries. This in turn resulted in some
initramfs libraries not having their rpaths patched to point to
extra-utils, which in turn broke the extra-utils tests.
rfkill was subsumed by util-linux in 2017 [1], and the upstream has not
been updated in over 5 years [2]. This package shadows the rfkill from
util-linux, so it can be completely removed with no breaking changes,
because util-linux is in the base package set in nixos/system-path.

This test wants to download things from the internet while building the
system. It can probably be fixed by ensuring these paths are present in
the initial nix-store.
If the config does not exist, then apparmor_parser will throw a warning.
To avoid that and make the parser configurable, we now add a new option
to it.

This appears to avoid requiring KVM when it’s not available. This is
what I originally though -cpu host did. Unfortunately not much
documentation available from the QEMU side on this, but this appears
to square with help:
$ qemu-system-x86 -cpu help
...
x86 host KVM processor with all supported host features
x86 max Enables all features supported by the accelerator in the current host
...
Whether we actually want to support this not clear, since this only
happens when your CPU doesn’t have full KVM support. Some Nix builders
are lying about kvm support though. Things aren’t too slow without it
though.

If `qemu-vm.nix` is imported, the option `virtualisation.qemu.consoles`
should be set to make sure that the machine's output isn't rendered on
the graphical window of QEMU.
This is needed when interactively running a NixOS test or in conjunction
with `nixos-build-vms(8)`.
The patch 2578557530 tries to only do this
if the option actually exists, however this condition used to be always
false since `options` wasn't imported in the module and pointed to
`lib.options` due to the `with lib;`-clause.
This makes the notification script use the subject generated by smartmontools
itself both for consistency with other distros and to include the hostname.
In some tests, e.g. -f nixos/release.nix tests.simple.x86_64-linux
we use noXlibs and qemu.ga. Now that output is tiny but to get it
a full qemu build is done, and some dependencies like gtk3 won't build
with noXlibs due to their dependencies being too stripped down.
Therefore let's reduce qemu features in noXlibs case.
The `sdlSupport = false;` part probably wasn't needed,
but I added it for consistency.
Discovered via https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/82743 which
improved option checking, causing an evaluation error that was
hard to understand without running the evaluation manually.
symlinkJoin can break (silently) when the passed paths contain symlinks
to directories. This should work now.
Down-side: when lib/tmpfiles.d doesn't exist for some passed package,
the error message is a little less explicit, because we never get
to the postBuild phase (and symlinkJoin doesn't provide a better way):
/nix/store/HASH-NAME/lib/tmpfiles.d: No such file or directory
Also, it seemed pointless to create symlinks for whole package trees
and using only a part of the result (usually very small part).
This patch ensures that latest Nextcloud works flawlessly again on our
`nginx`. The new config is mostly based on upstream recommendations
(again)[1]:
* Trying to access internals now results in a 404.
* All `.php`-routes get properly resolved now.
* Removed 404/403 handling from `nginx` as the app itself takes care of
this. Also, this breaks the `/ocs`-API.
* `.woff2?`-files expire later than other assets like images.

Turns out lot of software (including Chromium) use bundled fontconfig
so we either need to wrap every one of those, or re-introduce the global unversioned config.
The latter is easier but weakens hermetic configs. But perhaps those are not really worth the effort.
These are now only installed by systemd if HAVE_SYSV_COMPAT is true,
which only is the case if you set sysvinit-path and sysvrcnd-path (which
we explicitly unset in the systemd derivation for quite some time)
From the systemd release notes:
nss-mymachines lost support for resolution of users and groups, and now
only does resolution of hostnames. This functionality is now provided by
nss-systemd. Thus, the 'mymachines' entry should be removed from the
'passwd:' and 'group:' lines in /etc/nsswitch.conf (and 'systemd' added
if it is not already there).
Since systemd 243, docs were already steering users towards using
`journal`:
eedaf7f322
systemd 246 will go one step further, it shows warnings for these units
during bootup, and will [automatically convert these occurences to
`journal`](f3dc6af20f):
> [ 6.955976] systemd[1]: /nix/store/hwyfgbwg804vmr92fxc1vkmqfq2k9s17-unit-display-manager.service/display-manager.service:27: Standard output type syslog is obsolete, automatically updating to journal. Please update│······················
your unit file, and consider removing the setting altogether.
So there's no point of keeping `syslog` here, and it's probably a better
idea to just not set it, due to:
> This setting defaults to the value set with DefaultStandardOutput= in
> systemd-system.conf(5), which defaults to journal.
Since systemd 246, these are only installed by systemd if
HAVE_SYSV_COMPAT is true, which only is the case if you set
sysvinit-path and sysvrcnd-path (which we explicitly unset in the
systemd derivation for quite some time)
This breaks the Nextcloud vhost declaration when adding e.g. another
vhost as the `services.nginx.virtualHosts` option has `{ nextcloud =
...; }` as *default* value which will be replaced by another
`virtualHosts`-declaration with a higher (e.g. the default) priority.
The following cases are now supported & covered by the module:
* `nginx` is enabled with `nextcloud` enabled and other vhosts can be
added / other options can be declared without having to care
about the declaration's priority.
* Settings in the `nextcloud`-vhost in `nginx` have to be altered using
`mkForce` as this is the only way how we officially support `nginx`
for `nextcloud` and customizations have to be done explicitly using
`mkForce`.
* `nginx` will be completely omitted if a user enables nextcloud
and disables nginx using `services.nginx.enable = false;`. (because
nginx will be enabled by this module using `mkDefault`).
This reverts commit 128dbb31cc.
Closes#95259
nginx -t not only verifies configuration, but also creates (and chowns)
files. When the `nginx-config-reload` service is used, this can cause
directories to be chowned to `root`, causing nginx to fail.
This moves the nginx -t command into a second ExecReload command, which
runs as nginx's user. While fixing above issue, this will also cause the
configuration to be verified when running `systemctl reload nginx`, not
only when restarting the dummy `nginx-config-reload` unit. The latter is
mostly a workaround for missing features in our activation script
anyways.
