This makes it easier to support a wider variety of .desktop session files. In
particular this makes it possible to use both the «legacy» sessions and upstream
session files.
We separate `xsession` into two parts, `xsessionWrapper` and `xsession`.
`xsessionWrapper` sets up the correct environment and then lauches the session's
Exec command (from the .desktop file), falling back to launching the default
window/desktopManager through the `xsession` script (required by at least some
nixos tests).
`xsession` then _only_ handles launching desktop-managers/window-managers defined
through `services.xserver.desktopManager.session`.
Pass gnome-session to extraSessionFilePackages, remove unnecessary environment variables, move the rest out of old session option, and then drop the option.
GPaste GNOME Shell extension uses GPaste library generated via introspection. Previously, we added the gpaste package to services.xserver.desktopManager.gnome3.sessionPath option, which
added its typelib directory to GI_TYPELIB_PATH environment variable globally, in order for GNOME Shell to be able to find it. This is not very Nix-y, though, so we have decided to patch the code to
append the path to the GI repository search path.
Additionally, the code relies on GPaste’s GSettings schemas, so we had to hard-code the paths to them as well. We ignored the GNOME Shell’s schemas, since they will already be available for the
extension inside GNOME Shell program.
Previously, the mkDesktops function produced a flat package containing
session files in the top level. As a preparation for introduction of
Wayland sessions, the files will now be placed to $out/share/xsessions.
It seems like Gitlab doesn't pick up GITLAB_UPLOADS_PATH. The internal uploads
folder is already symlinked to /run/gitlab/uploads by the gitlab package. Here
we symlink this further to ${statePath}/uploads, since /run is (usually) a tmpfs.
* The ELK stack is upgraded to 6.3.2.
* `elasticsearch6`, `logstash6` and `kibana6` now come with X-Pack which is
a suite of additional features. These are however licensed under the unfree
"Elastic License".
* Fortunately they also provide OSS versions which are now packaged
under: `elasticsearch6-oss`, `logstash6-oss` and `kibana6-oss`.
Note that the naming of the attributes is consistent with upstream.
* The test `nix-build nixos/tests/elk.nix -A ELK-6` will test the OSS
version by default. You can also run the test on the unfree ELK using:
`NIXPKGS_ALLOW_UNFREE=1 nix-build nixos/tests/elk.nix -A ELK-6 --arg enableUnfree true`
This reverts commit 095fe5b43d.
Pointless renames considered harmful. All they do is force people to
spend extra work updating their configs for no benefit, and hindering
the ability to switch between unstable and stable versions of NixOS.
Like, what was the value of having the "nixos." there? I mean, by
definition anything in a NixOS module has something to do with NixOS...
This makes the command ‘nix-env -qa -f. --arg config '{skipAliases =
true;}'’ work in Nixpkgs.

Problem: Restarting (stopping) system.slice would not only stop X11 but
also most system units/services. We obviously don't want this happening
to users when they switch from 18.03 to 18.09 or nixos-unstable.
Reason: The following change in systemd:
d8e5a93382
The commit adds system.slice to the perpetual units, which means
removing the unit file and adding it to the source code. This is done so
that system.slice can't be stopped anymore but in our case it ironically
would cause this script to stop system.slice because the unit file was
removed (and an older systemd version is still running).

When running e.g. `nixos-option boot.kernelPackages` I get an output
like this on the current unstable channel (18.09pre144959.be1461fc0ab):
```
$ nixos-option boot.kernelPackages
Value:
*exit 1*
```
This is fairly counter-intuitive as I have no clue what might went
wrong. `strace` delivers an output like this:
```
read(3, "error: Package \342\200\230cryptodev-linu"..., 128) = 128
read(3, "ux/cryptodev/default.nix:22 is m"..., 128) = 128
read(3, "lowBroken = true; }\nin configura"..., 128) = 128
read(3, "you can add\n { allowBroken = tr"..., 128) = 128
read(3, "n)\n", 128) = 3
read(3, "", 128) = 0
```
`nixos-option` evaluates the system config using `nix-instantiate` which
might break when the evaluation fails (e.g. due to broken or unfree
packages that are prohibited to evaluate by default). The script aborts
due to the shebang `@shell@ -e`.
In order to ensure that no unexpected
behavior occurs due to removing `-e` from the interpreter the easiest
way to work around this was to wrap `nix-instantiate` in `evalNix()`
with a `set +e`. The function checks the success of the evaluation with
`$?` in the end. Additionally `evalNix` shouldn't break, if one
evaluation (e.g. the values that contain a package set by default) to
return additional information like a description.
With the change `nixos-option boot.kernelPackages` delivers the
following output for me:
```
Value:
error: Package ‘cryptodev-linux-1.9-4.14.52’ in /nix/store/47z2s8cwppymmgzw6n7pbcashikyk5jk-nixos/nixos/pkgs/os-specific/linux/cryptodev/default.nix:22 is marked as broken, refusing to evaluate.

"This option allows you to override the Linux kernel used by\nNixOS. Since things like external kernel module packages are\ntied to the kernel you're using, it also overrides those.\nThis option is a function that takes Nixpkgs as an argument\n(as a convenience), and returns an attribute set containing at\nthe very least an attribute <varname>kernel</varname>.\nAdditional attributes may be needed depending on your\nconfiguration. For instance, if you use the NVIDIA X driver,\nthen it also needs to contain an attribute\n<varname>nvidia_x11</varname>.\n"

* nixos/virtualbox: Adds more options to virtualbox-image.nix

This allows non-privileged users to configure local DNS

Cherry-picked from e6c3d5a507 and

With a config like
{
networking.interfaces."lo".ip4 = [
{ address = "10.8.8.8"; prefixLength = 32; }
];
}
a nixos-rebuild switch would take a long time, and you'd see:
$ systemctl list-jobs
JOB UNIT TYPE STATE
734400 network-interfaces.target start waiting
734450 sys-subsystem-net-devices-lo.device start running
734449 network-link-lo.service start waiting
and:

systemd[1]: sys-subsystem-net-devices-lo.device: Job sys-subsystem-net-devices-lo.device/star>
systemd[1]: Timed out waiting for device sys-subsystem-net-devices-lo.device.
This removes the device dependency for `lo` and fixes this bug.
Closes#7227
The deep merge caused all the options to be unset when generating docs, unless quagga was enabled.
Using imports, instead, properly allows the documentation to be generated.
The `.service` file defining the `systemd` unit for `autorandr.service`
which is bundled with the package itself uses `--default default` in the
`ExecStart` section. This can be an issue when having multiple layouts
(e.g. `default` as workstation layout I mostly work on and `mobile` when
I go somewhere else).
When the service gets restarted and `--default` can't be applied,
however the current layout can't be detected (e.g. when working with an
unknown beamer) the service silently fails with a message like this:
```

As discussed in the IRC (see https://botbot.me/freenode/nixos/2018-07-05/?msg=101791455&page=6)
it's a bad long-term solution in terms of maintenance to manually patch
the service file bundled with the derivation, instead the service shall
be configured declaratively. Additionally this makes possible overrides
from the user-space way easier.
The `udev` rule (in `$out/etc/udev/rules.d`) won't' be affected, it
simply runs `systemctl start autorandr.service` when e.g. a new display
is added, so now `udev` communicates with the NixOS systemd unit.
To update the plasma start menu `kbuildsyscoca5` needs to be executed.
There are several people complaining about missing applications in their
plasma start menu.
This patch adds a activationScript for plasma, that runs
`kbuildsyscoca5` for each user that has `isNormalUser` == `true`.
In fff5923686 all occurences of
users.extraUsers and users.extraGroups have been changed tree-wide to
users.users and users.group. In the meantime the hadoop modules were
introduced via #41381 (060a98e9f4).
Unfortunately those modules still use users.extraUsers, which has been
renamed a long time ago (14321ae243, about
three years from now), so let's actually rename it accordingly as well.

The order of sudoers entries is significant. The man page for sudoers(5)
notes:
Where there are multiple matches, the last match is used (which is not
necessarily the most specific match).
This module adds a rule for group "wheel" matching all commands. If you
wanted to add a more specific rule allowing members of the "wheel" group
to run command `foo` without a password, you'd need to use mkAfter to
ensure your rule comes after the more general rule.
extraRules = lib.mkAfter [
{
groups = [ "wheel" ];
commands = [
{
command = "${pkgs.foo}/bin/foo";
options = [ "NOPASSWD" "SETENV" ];
}
]
}
];
Otherwise, when configuration options are merged, if the general rule
ends up after the specific rule, it will dictate the behavior even when
running the `foo` command.
- Introduce new "server" output holding the server binaries
- Adapt tsmbac.patch to new build environment
- Adapt openafs nixos server module accordingly
- Update upstream CellServDB: 2017-03-14 -> 2018-05-14
- Introduce package attributes to refer to the openafs packages to use for
server, programs and kernel module
Rather than special-casing the dns options in networkmanager.nix, use
the module system to let unbound and systemd-resolved contribute to
the newtorkmanager config.

Forcibly restarting NSCD is unnecessary and breaks setups that use SSSD for
authentication. NSCD is capable of detecting changes to /etc/resolv.conf and
invalidating its caches internally. Restarting NSCD/SSSD breaks user name and
UID resolution.
The freeradius service was merged with #34587
but the module was not added to module-list.
This commit fixes that and enables the use of
services.freeradius in nixos configuration.

find-libs is currently choking when it finds the dynamic linker
as a DT_NEEDED dependency (from glibc) and bails out like this
(as glibc doesn't have a RPATH):
Couldn't satisfy dependency ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
Actually the caller of find-libs ignores the exit status, so the issue
almost always goes unnoticed and happens to work by chance. But
additionally what happens is that indirect .so dependencies are
left out from the dependency closure calculation, which breaks
latest cryptsetup as libssl.so isn't found anymore.
Kubernetes dashboard currently has cluster admin permissions,
which is not recommended.
- Renamed option "services.kubernetes.addons.dashboard.enableRBAC" to "services.kubernetes.addons.dashboard.rbac.enable"
- Added option "services.kubernetes.addons.dashboard.rbac.clusterAdmin", default = false.
- Setting recommended minimal permissions for the dashboard in accordance with https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard/wiki/Installation
- Updated release note for 18.09.
Adds a module for running the journaldriver log forwarding agent via
systemd.
The agent can be deployed on both GCP instances and machines hosted
elsewhere to forward all logs from journald to Stackdriver Logging.
Consult the module options and upstream documentation for more
information.
Implementation notes:
* The service unit is configured to use systemd's dynamic user feature
which will let systemd set up the state directory and appropriate
user configuration at unit launch time instead of hardcoding it.
* The module depends on `network-online.target` to prevent a situation
where journaldriver is failing and restarting multiple times before
the network is online.
