We are building fwupd daemon with polkit support which means
polkit daemon is required.
Previously polkit was enabled by default via udisks2 but that
stopped with f763710065
breaking the fwupd installed tests as a result.
Let’s add the polkit dependency to the fwupd module to ensure polkit is available.
Handing CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE to the `paperless-web.service` only makes
sense when it actually wants to bind to a port < 1024. Don't hand it out
if that is not the case.
Finding out how to connect paperless to a PostgreSQL database via unix
sockets and peer authentication took me a few minutes, so leaving a hint
in the extraConfig example seems like a good idea to me.
Also remove unnecessary use of literalExpression for attribute set, it
is only required for complex values like functions or values that depend
on other values or packages.
After uploading a document through the webinterface I started seeing
it killed through the SYSBUS signal. Inspecting the call trace led me to
liblapack's memory allocator, that uses the mbind syscall on Linux.
Prior to this change, ffmpeg couldn't be built for an
environment.noXlibs system, because it would fail in:
ffmpeg → SDL2 → libdecor
ffmpeg certainly does not need support for SDL2 windowing on a noXlibs
system.
This fix is important because the minidlna NixOS test, which uses the
minimal profile (and therefore environment.noXlibs) and ffmpeg, can't
currently build.
The primary difference between the standard and minimal variants of
this package is that all the X libraries are removed from the minimal
variant.
I had to switch the order of the definitions in all-packages.nix to
avoid an infinite recursion after the overlay was applied.
The udisks2 service was enabled to fix the test in (c5ebec7ee4).
However, cagebreak doesn't require udisks2, just polkit (which the
udisks2 module enables and which is why the cagebreak test broke after
the udisks2 module was disabled by default).
I've documented why polkit is required in this PR:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/156858
In this case the "dependency" chain is basically cagebreak -> wlroots ->
libseat -> logind (with polkit support) -> polkit.
Because of long standing bugs and stability issues & an
uncollaborative upstream there has been talk on the emacs-devel
mailing list to switch the default toolkit to
Lucid (https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2022-08/msg00752.html).
The GTK build also has issues with Xinput2, something that both we and
upstream want to enable by default in Emacs 29.
This situation has prompted me to use both Lucid an no-toolkit (pure X11) Emacs
as a daily driver in recent weeks to evaluate what the
advantages/drawbacks are and I have concluded that, at least for me,
switching the toolkit to Lucid is strictly an upgrade.
It has resulted in better stability (there are far fewer tiny UX
issues that are hard to understand/identify) & a snappier UI.
On top of that the closure size is reduced by ~10%.
In the pure X11 build I noticed some unsharpness around fonts so this
is not a good default choice.
As with everything there is a cost, and that is uglier (I think most
would agree but of course this is subjective) menu bars for
those that use them and no GTK scroll bars.
For anyone who still wants to use GTK they could of course still
choose to do so via the new `emacs-gtk` attribute but I think this
is a bad default.
A note to Wayland users:
This does not affect Wayland compatibility in any way since that will
already need a PGTK build variant in the future.
For example, the wait_for_unit() call in the Moodle test times out for
myself and others[1], so it would be good to be able to increase it to
something less likely to be hit by a test that would otherwise pass.

most of these are hidden because they're either part of a submodule that
doesn't have its type rendered (eg because the submodule type is used in
an either type) or because they are explicitly hidden. some of them are
merely hidden from nix-doc-munge by how their option is put together.
conversions were done using https://github.com/pennae/nix-doc-munge
using (probably) rev f34e145 running
nix-doc-munge nixos/**/*.nix
nix-doc-munge --import nixos/**/*.nix
the tool ensures that only changes that could affect the generated
manual *but don't* are committed, other changes require manual review
and are discarded.
there are sufficiently few variable list around, and they are
sufficiently simple, that it doesn't seem helpful to add another
markdown extension for them. rendering differences are small, except in
the tor module: admonitions inside other blocks cannot be made to work
well with mistune (and likely most other markdown processors), so those
had to be shuffled a bit. we also lose paragraph breaks in the list
items due to how we have to render from markdown to docbook, but once we
remove docbook from the pipeline those paragraph breaks will be restored.
mostly no rendering changes. some lists (like simplelist) don't have an
exact translation to markdown, so we use a comma-separated list of
literals instead.
this mostly means marking options that use markdown already
appropriately and making a few adjustments so they still render
correctly. notable for nftables we have to transform the md links
because the manpage would not render them correctly otherwise.
most of the screen tags used in option docs are actually listings of
some sort. nsd had a notable exception where its screen usage was pretty
much a raw markdown block that made most sense to convert into docbook lists.
the way these are written they introduce lots of whitespace in each
line, which will cause those lines to render as code when converted to
markdown. override the whole description instead.
- Replace misleading docs.
- Add new assertions to let configurations make more sense.
- Add clusterInit flag.
- Add some more docs about HA and non-HA modes setup.
- Improve multi-node tests for HA mode.

Makes it easier to configure `rust-motd`. Currently, it takes care of
the following things:
* Creating a timer to regularly refresh the `motd`-text and a hardened
service (which is still root to get access to e.g. fs-mounts, but
read-only because of hardening flags).
* Disabling `PrintLastLog` in `sshd.conf` if the last-login feature of
`rust-motd` is supposed to be used.
* Ensure that the banner is actually shown when connecting via `ssh(1)`
to a remote server with this being enabled.
Syncthing config XML uses `fsPath` setting for specifying the path to the versioning folder. This commit adds `services.syncthing.folders.<name>.versioning.fsPath` option to enable this functionality declaratively. Previously, `versioning.params.versionsPath` was used, which doesn't work.
This config is removed when removing[1] fonts.fontconfig.hinting.style
option.
However, when adding[2] that option back, this config is missing.

Long story short: the SSH agent protocol doesn't support telling from
which tty the request is coming from, so the the pinentry curses prompt
appears on the login tty and messes up the output and may hang.
The current trick to workaround this is informing the gnupg agent every
time you start a shell: this assumes you will run `ssh` in the latest
tty, if you don't the latest tty will be messed up this time.
The ideal solution would be updating the tty exactly when (and where)
you run `ssh`. This is actually possible using a catch-all Match block
in ssh_config and using the `exec` feature that hooks a command to the
current shell.

no change in rendered output. the html manual could render <screen>
blocks differently, but so far it hasn't (and if we need to make a
distinction we can use a special info string).
leaving some newlines around after an admonition was closed causes the
newline rule to match, which in turn inserts literallayout newlines into
te xml output. that's not what we want.
this notable also now interprets a markdown-flavored list in
triton_sd_config as actual markdown and renders it differently, but this
is arguably for the better (and probably the original intention).
no other rendering changes.
there seems to be a lot of markdown in the prometheus module that
should've been docbook instead. temporarily convert it to docbook to
keep the diff for the docbook->md conversion of prometheus inspectable.
Due to how complex minecraft world generation has gotten in recent
years, it now can take several minutes to complete the first generation
of a world seed, even on relatively new and powerful hardware.
We are testing if a minecraft server can run inside of a nix enviroment,
and not so much about stress testing the CI.
Test running before this change:
> (finished: waiting for TCP port 43000, in 118.49 seconds)
Test running with this change:
> (finished: waiting for TCP port 43000, in 27.88 seconds)
Choice of using `level-type` and `generate-structures` was made as they
support almost every version of minecraft. These two also make it
extremely clear what it does, compared to the more complex
`generator-settings` and all its toggles.
When `nix.registry.<name>.flake` option is used, additional attributes of the flake were not written to the flake registry file because of a missing parenthesis.

#167013 introduced a property conflict with the concurrently-written commit
aea940da63, over property
systemd.services.prosody. Fix this by moving the reload option into the block.
This option is based on a recommendation from a page last updated in
2014 (see https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/Glamor/), and it
is not necessary anymore.
Also, it did the wrong thing: it forced DRI2, but Glamor should also
work with DRI3, that is a better option most of the time. So let's
remove this option, folks that still want to force this manually can do
so in other ways.
The split of Ethereum into Execution Layer and Consensus Layer adds a
requirement for communication between execution client and consensus
client using secur JWT tokens. In Geth this is configurable using the
`--authrpc.*` CLI flags which are currently not exposed by this service.

The chosen levels are stricter than default but don't require unsupported signing or DB editing so seem like a reasonable high bar for now. It is easy for users to lower the levels so it is better to be stricter by default.

So far, we have been building Systemd without `BPF_FRAMEWORK`. As a
result, some Systemd features like `RestrictNetworkInterfaces=` cannot
work. To make things worse, Systemd doesn't even complain when using a
feature which requires `+BPF_FRAMEWORK`; yet, the option has no effect:
# systemctl --version | grep -o "\-BPF_FRAMEWORK"
-BPF_FRAMEWORK
# systemd-run -t -p RestrictNetworkInterfaces="lo" ping -c 1 8.8.8.8
This commit enables `BPF_FRAMEWORK` by default. This is in line with
other distros (e.g., Fedora). Also note that BPF does not support stack
protector: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/2/21/1000. To that end, I added a
small `CFLAGS` patch to the BPF building to keep using stack protector
as a default.
I also added an appropriate NixOS test.
This make the process of applying overlays more reliable by:
1. Ignoring dtb files that are not really device trees. [^1]
2. Adding a `filter` option (per-overlay, there already is a global one)
to limit the files to which the overlay applies. This is useful
in cases where the `compatible` string is ambiguous and multiple
unrelated files match.
Previously the script would fail in both cases.
[^1]: For example, there is dtbs/overlays/overlay_map.dtb in the
Raspberry Pi 1 kernel.
