Overriding can now happen using module options, which is preferred
because it is more discoverable and doesn't require knowledge of
overrides in the first place.
While the documentation said to set this to null, in case an imperative
config was supposed to be used, this was not possible with the typing in
place.
As `nix-daemon.service` does not make use of `ExecStop`, we prefer
to keep the socket up and available. This is important for machines
that run Nix-based services, such as automated build, test, and deploy
services, that expect the daemon socket to be available at all times.
See committed inline comment for further explanation.
Not entirely sure when it got broken this time, but when creating a VM
network with `nixos-build-vms(8)`, there are should be the following scripts:
* `$out/bin/nixos-test-driver` which drops into an interactive shell to
interactively perform test steps.
* `$out/bin/nixos-run-vms` which non-interactively starts the VMs from
the network so that one can manually play around in the VM.
The latter also starts an interactive shell for a while now which means
that it does the exact same thing as `nixos-test-driver` which is not
its purpose.
The live image is primarily used for installation so we should make
link to manual as well as other useful tools front and center,
instead of having them buried in the app drawer.
The default GNOME apps can still be found there when the ISO
is used for demonstration purposes.
New ntopng version supports running as specified user. Create a separate
user for ntopng with a separate Redis instance.
Separate instance is only used for new `system.stateVersion`s to avoid
breaking existing setups. To configure that we add two new options,
`redis.address` and `redis.createInstance`. They can also be used to
specify your own Redis address.
fixes#158802
Sets the mysql backup systemd service type to "oneshot" to ensure the
service is marked as started after the backup script fully proceeds. This
allows to reliably depend on completing of this service by other services.
systemd needs this so special characters (like the ones in wireguard
units that appear because they are part of base64) can be escaped using
the \x syntax.
Root of the issue is that `glob()` handles the backslash internally
which is obviously not what we want here.
Also add a test case and fix some perlcritic issues in the subroutine.
Database provisioning was shown to be racy since adding a recorder test
using PostgreSQL. There is no harm in waiting for these services,
because if they're not available they will be ignored.
It simply should not be required to override the package for such a
common use case, especially since the module usually adds another
override on top to inherit extraComponents.
After this change users with non-declarative configs need to set
`services.home-assistant.config` to an `null`, or their
`configuration.yaml` will be overwritten.
The reason for this is that with rfc42 style defaults the config
attribute set will never be empty by default.
If people take the time to setup network-online.target correctly we
should wait for it. If they don't it's basically the same as
network.target anyway, so no harm done.
Over time I've seen multiple integrations that have dealt badly with
missing network connectivity at startup, this should alleviate further
pains.
The given example is now closer to a sane default people will want to
start with. It also displays the existance of extraComponents, a feature
that will receive more usage with home-assistant warning about
components that have completely migrated away from YAML configuration.
--port and --address have both been deprecated and are nonfunctional
starting with kubernetes 1.23. Use --secure-port and --bind-address
instead. This means that users can no longer rely on the insecure port
for anything, so update the release notes accordingly.
The `substituters` option in `nix.settings` uses the order
of the substituters listed to define priority. Prior to https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/139075,
the corresponding option `binaryCaches` is declared in the `nix` namespace,
which is guaranteed to be merged last. However, the order of merging isn't
guaranteed in submodules. This cause definitions to be appended to the default
value instead of prepended, breaking backwards compatibility as reported in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/158356.
The way this is addressed in the module system is with order priorities via
`mkOrder` and sorting definitions before merging. This PR restores the previous
behavior by setting a higher priority to the substituters option defined internally,
thus all definitions with default priority will be merged before it. This was chosen because
the `mkRenamedOption` function does not preserve order priority so users using legacy options do not have
precise control on placement.
This change should suffice for simple configuration, but further revision to the module system
is needed for to make various `mk*` functions aware of order priorities.
logrotate global options only affect rules following them - as such,
services.logrotate.extraConfig being added last makes the option only
useful for adding new paths but not for setting global options (e.g.
'dateext' so all logs are rotate with a date suffix).
Moving this first solves this problem, and we can then use this instead
of default paths config to append missingok/notifempty.
wtmp and btmp are created by systemd, so the rules are more appropriate there.
They can be disabled explicitly with something like
services.ogrotate.paths = {
"/var/log/btmp".enable = false;
"/var/log/wtmp".enable = false;
};
if required.
In #139075, mandatoryFeatures was removed from the generated
supportedFeatures, which breaks backward compatibility and is
different from what the description of supportedFeatures says.
Addresses #16545. Allows for user defined environment variables that
hold paths to wordlists. This is to allow for easy access to wordlists
for users and scripts, (in other distributions a convenient wordlist is
typically found in /usr/share/dict/words or similar). The default
wordlist is the one found in scowl, for no other reason than that's the
one that was mentioned in the linked issue.
It is possible to specify multiple environment variables as well. This
is for users who need multiple wordlists (such as multilingual users).
This is accomplished by comparing the hashes that the unit files
contain. By filtering for a special key `X-Reload-Triggers` in the
`[Unit]` section, we can differentiate between reloads and restarts.
Since activation scripts can request reloads of units as well, more
checking of this behaviour is implemented. If a unit is to be restarted,
it's never reloaded as well which would make no sense.
Also removes a useless subroutine and perl dependencies that are
nowadays handled by the propagated build inputs feature of
`perl.withPackages`.
The module option type `nonEmptyStr` was introduced in commit
a3c5f0cba8
The hylafax module previously simply used
`addCheck str (s: s!="")` to prevent empty option strings,
but the new type is more thorough as
it also catches space-only strings.
If a secret path is a subset of a second secret path, there's a risk
that its secret is substituted for the matching part of the second
path. To prevent this, use the sha256 of the paths as placeholder
string instead.
GDM enables Wayland on supported platforms automatically (see ${gnome.gdm}/lib/udev/rules.d/61-gdm.rules), so we removed the `gdm.nvidiaWayland` option.
You will still need `hardware.nvidia.modesetting.enable = true;` with `nvidia` driver, though.
I think calling i2pd directly in `ExecStart` is much nicer than having an extra shell script for no reason. It's also easier to see what's going on when looking at the generated systemd unit file.
* make slurmd depend on network target to ensure basic networking
is available on startup. This fixes behaviour
where slurmd fails with "error: get_addr_info: getaddrinfo() failed".
* Use tmpfiles.d to ensure spool directory exists on start up.
Fail scripts on pipeline errors and propagate subshell errors.
If an error occurs in a subshell, including while trying to read a
secret file, we want that error to propagate to the main shell
context. That means we have to set the `inherit_errexit` option, which
allows errors from subshells to propagate to the outer shell. Also,
the subshell cannot run as part of another command, such as `export`,
since that will simply ignore the subshell exit status and only
respect `export`s exit status; first assigning the value to a variable
and then exporting it solves issue.
The mount options need to be passed as a comma-separated list of options so that they
end up one a single Options line in the resulting mount unit.
The current code passed the options as a list, resulting in several Options lines in
the mount unit, all but the first of these were ignored by systemd however.
This behaviour is not clearly defined in the systemd man page.
* nixos/nftables: Allow use with iptables
Since iptables and nftables do not actually conflict with each other, there's no real reason to artificially prevent people from combining them.
In fact, this practice is known to cause issues like #88643, which is fixed by this commit.
users.users.*.createHome makes home only owner-readable.
This breaks nginx reading static assets from nextcloud's home,
after a nixos-rebuild that did not restart nextcloud-setup.
Closes#112639
When no devices are given the exporter tries to autodiscover available
disks. The previous DevicePolicy was however preventing the exporter
from accessing any device at all, since only explicitly mentioned ones
were allowed.
This commit adds an allow rule for several device classes that I could
find on my machines, that gets set when no devices are explicitly
configured.
There is an existing problem with nvme devices, that expose a character
device at `/dev/nvme0`, and a (namespaced) block device at
`/dev/nvme0n1`. The character device does not come with permissions that
we could give to the exporter without further impacting the hardening.
crw------- 1 root root 247, 0 27. Jan 03:10 /dev/nvme0
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 259, 0 27. Jan 03:10 /dev/nvme0n1
The autodiscovery only finds the character device, which the exporter
unfortunately does not have access to.
However a simple udev rule can be used to resolve this:
services.udev.extraRules = ''
SUBSYSTEM=="nvme", KERNEL=="nvme[0-9]*", GROUP="disk"
'';
Unfortunately I'm not fully aware of the security implications this
change carries and we should question upstream (systemd) why they did
not include such a rule.
The disk group has no members on any of my machines.

The `nix.*` options, apart from options for setting up the
daemon itself, currently provide a lot of setting mappings
for the Nix daemon configuration. The scope of the mapping yields
convience, but the line where an option is considered essential
is blurry. For instance, the `extra-sandbox-paths` mapping is
provided without its primary consumer, and the corresponding
`sandbox-paths` option is also not mapped.
The current system increases the maintenance burden as maintainers have to
closely follow upstream changes. In this case, there are two state versions
of Nix which have to be maintained collectively, with different options
avaliable.
This commit aims to following the standard outlined in RFC 42[1] to
implement a structural setting pattern. The Nix configuration is encoded
at its core as key-value pairs which maps nicely to attribute sets, making
it feasible to express in the Nix language itself. Some existing options are
kept such as `buildMachines` and `registry` which present a simplified interface
to managing the respective settings. The interface is exposed as `nix.settings`.
Legacy configurations are mapped to their corresponding options under `nix.settings`
for backwards compatibility.
Various options settings in other nixos modules and relevant tests have been
updated to use structural setting for consistency.
The generation and validation of the configration file has been modified to
use `writeTextFile` instead of `runCommand` for clarity. Note that validation
is now mandatory as strict checking of options has been pushed down to the
derivation level due to freeformType consuming unmatched options. Furthermore,
validation can not occur when cross-compiling due to current limitations.
A new option `publicHostKey` was added to the `buildMachines`
submodule corresponding to the base64 encoded public host key settings
exposed in the builder syntax. The build machine generation was subsequently
rewritten to use `concatStringsSep` for better performance by grouping
concatenations.

SUID wrappers really shouldn't be enabled by default, unless a consumer
relies on them. So in my opinion this falls upon the desktop
environments if needed or a user to explicltly enable this if wanted.
Most desktop environments and services like CUPS already enable polkit
by default, that should really be sufficient.
Empty parantheses are not supported in regular expressions on
Darwin/macOS. The old regular expression produces an error during
evaluation. This commit fixes that.
Nix‘s `builtins.match` works with extend POSIX regular expressions. The
specification for these regular expression states[^1] that the result
for a left paranthesis immediately followed by a right paranthesis
outside of a bracket expression is undefined.

Currently it's rather difficult to install tmux plugins. The process involves two steps:
1. Specify the correct `pkg.tmuxPlugins` package in `environment.systemPackages`
2. Adding to the configuration file to instantiate the plugin.
This commit allows the user to specify a list of plugins under `programs.tmux.plugins`.

Tor waits ShutdownWaitLength seconds (30s by default) before actually shutting down. Since the systemd timeout is also set to 30 seconds, this results in a race condition that ends up killing Tor most of the time on my machine during shutdown.
To fix this, add the ShutdownWaitLength setting and tell systemd to wait 30 seconds more than that.
Arch Linux also has `TimeoutSec` set to 60 seconds: 6df716fe19/trunk/tor.service.
This option behaves exactly like `boot.extraModprobeConfig`, except that it also includes the generated modprobe.d file in the initrd.
Many years ago, someone tried to include the normal modprobe.d/nixos.conf file generated by `boot.extraModprobeConfig` in the initrd: 0aa2c1dc46. This file contains a reference to a directory with firmware files inside. Including firmware in the initrd made it too big, so the commit was reverted again in 4a4c051a95.
The `boot.extraModprobeConfig` option not changing the initrd caused me much confusion because I tried to set the maximum cache size for ZFS and it didn't work.
Closes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/25456.
Modules that do not depend on e.g. toplevel should not have to include it just to set
things in `system.build`. As a general rule, this keeps tests simple, usage flexible
and evaluation fast. While one module is insignificant, consistency and good practices
are.
Release notes: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/releases/tag/1.7
Notable (backward incompatible) changes:
- The default terminal changed from Alacritty to foot
Known issues:
- `swaynag` will crash when Sway 1.6.1 is still running while the Nix
package (and thus `swaynag`) is already updated to version 1.7.
- The experimental Ozone/Wayland support of Electron apps will be broken
for a while. Electron version 17 should work but the Chromium fixes
haven't yet been backported to Electron version 16.
NixOS module: programs.sway.extraPackages: The "alacritty" package was
replaced with "foot".
VM test: We switched from the OpenGL ES 2.0 renderer to Pixman. The
terminal was also changed to foot but Alacritty is still used for the
XWayland test (since foot doesn't support X11).

Commit ca58bd0a50 broke the test networking.networkd.static. This happened because the test sets `networking.defaultGateway`. This is implemented by adding the gateway to the list of `routes` using `mkDefault`. The `routes` are then overridden by an empty list in the newly added code. Replace `mkDefault` with `id` so the two lists are merged and everything (hopefully) works as expected.
See https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/144590 for a more context.
