After final improvements to the official formatter implementation,
this commit now performs the first treewide reformat of Nix files using it.
This is part of the implementation of RFC 166.
Only "inactive" files are reformatted, meaning only files that
aren't being touched by any PR with activity in the past 2 months.
This is to avoid conflicts for PRs that might soon be merged.
Later we can do a full treewide reformat to get the rest,
which should not cause as many conflicts.
A CI check has already been running for some time to ensure that new and
already-formatted files are formatted, so the files being reformatted here
should also stay formatted.

The comment says this is required by other modules but to be honest, I
cannot see where. Bootloaders will be included automatically by nixos
generation if their `installBootLoader` attribute references it.
This helps us to make kexec images even smaller espeically when
combined with the perlless profile.
these changes were generated with nixq 0.0.2, by running
nixq ">> lib.mdDoc[remove] Argument[keep]" --batchmode nixos/**.nix
nixq ">> mdDoc[remove] Argument[keep]" --batchmode nixos/**.nix
nixq ">> Inherit >> mdDoc[remove]" --batchmode nixos/**.nix
two mentions of the mdDoc function remain in nixos/, both of which
are inside of comments.
Since lib.mdDoc is already defined as just id, this commit is a no-op as
far as Nix (and the built manual) is concerned.
This is copied from isoImage.squashfsCompression. It's useful to be
able to customise, as iteration cycles are very slow with xz, and
subjectively systems booted with less efficiently compressed squashfs
stores appear to have faster reads (although I didn't test that
scientificly so there could be other factors).
`nixos/modules/installer/kexec/kexec-boot.nix` doesn't contain any
custom NixOS config, other than importing `netboot-minimal.nix` (which
imports `netboot-base.nix`, which imports `netboot.nix`.
`netboot.nix` really is just describing a self-contained system config,
running entirely off kernel and initrd, so we might as well move the
kexec script generation there as well.
`netboot.nix` already contains some `system.build` attributes.
Provide a `system.build.kexecTree` attribute (and `kexecScript` for
composability).
Previously, `makeInitrd` added the whole closure of the squashfs
derivation to initrd.
This closure contains the squashfs.img and some store paths which are
still referenced by the compressed squashfs.img.
These extra store paths are unused in stage 1.
With `makeInitrdNG` only the squashfs.img is added to the initrd.
(`makeInitrdNG` only resolves shared library references instead of the
whole closure).
This shrinks the netboot ramdisk by ~6% for a minimal system and
significantly decreases the size of the uncompressed root filesystem
in stage 1.
so the underlaying use case of the preceding commit is so
generic, that we gain a lot in reasoning to give it an
appropriate name.
As the comment states:
image media needs to override host config short of mkForce
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/131760 was made to avo
a speicific configuration conflict that errored out for multiple definitions of "/" when the installer where overlayed
on any existing host configuration.
---
Problem 1: It turns out that in also other mountpoints can coflict.
Solution 1: use `mkOverride 60` for all mountpoints (even for the ones unlikely causing confilct for consistency sake)
---
Problem 2: It turns out that on an installation media for a fresh machine (before formatting), we usually don't have any devices yet formatted. However defining for example `fileSystems.<nme>.device = "/dev/disk/by-label/...", in newer versions of nixos, seems to make the system startup fail. Similarily waiting for a non-existent swap device does not make the startup fail, but has a 1:30 min timeout.
Solution 2: For an installation medium, soft-override ("unless users know what they are doing") the entire `fileSystems` and `swapDevices` definitions.
installer media can be used on top of existing host configs. In such
scenarions, root fs types will already be defined.
Before this change, this will inevitably lead to the following error:
```console
error: The option `fileSystems./.fsType' has conflicting definition values:
- In `/nix/store/2nl5cl4mf6vnldpbxhrbzfh0n8rsv9fm-source/DevOS/os/hardware/common.nix': "ext4"
- In `/nix/store/jbch90yqx6gg1h3fq30jjj2b6h6jfjgs-source/nixos/modules/installer/cd-dvd/iso-image.nix': "tmpfs"
```
With this patch, the installers will override those values according to
their own local requirement.
Use `mkOverride 60` so that conscientious overriding specially targeted
at the installer, e.g. with `mkForce` is still straight forward.
The `platform` field is pointless nesting: it's just stuff that happens
to be defined together, and that should be an implementation detail.
This instead makes `linux-kernel` and `gcc` top level fields in platform
configs. They join `rustc` there [all are optional], which was put there
and not in `platform` in anticipation of a change like this.
`linux-kernel.arch` in particular also becomes `linuxArch`, to match the
other `*Arch`es.
The next step after is this to combine the *specific* machines from
`lib.systems.platforms` with `lib.systems.examples`, keeping just the
"multiplatform" ones for defaulting.
In 87a19e9048 I merged staging-next into master using the GitHub gui as intended.
In ac241fb7a5 I merged master into staging-next for the next staging cycle, however, I accidentally pushed it to master.
Thinking this may cause trouble, I reverted it in 0be87c7979. This was however wrong, as it "removed" master.
This reverts commit 0be87c7979.
I merged master into staging-next but accidentally pushed it to master.
This should get us back to 87a19e9048.
This reverts commit ac241fb7a5, reversing
changes made to 76a439239e.
Copy-paste from iso-image.nix
Besides the simplification, it should use `pkgs.buildPackages.squashfsTools` because it is used in `nativeBuildInputs` instead of incorrect `pkgs.squashfsTools` which was forced by `import'
The function arguments for make-squashfs.nix have changed in
df117acab7, so we need to change them here
as well.
The boot.netboot NixOS VM test now succeeds again.
