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.

genJqReplacementSnippet quotes the content of the secret file in the
output json file, which prevents structured secret, such as a list or
an object, from being used.
This commit adds a `quote = true|false` option to the `{ _secret =
"/path/to/secret"; }` attribute set. `quote = true` treats the
content of /path/to/secret as string, while `quote = false` treats
the content of /path/to/secret as a JSON document.
`quote = true` is the default, maintaining backward compatibility.
This allows us to set things like dependencies in a way that we can
catch typos at eval time.
So instead of
```nix
systemd.services.foo.wants = [ "bar.service" ];
```
we can write
```nix
systemd.services.foo.wants = [ config.systemd.services.bar.name ];
```
which will throw an error if no such service has been defined.
Not all cases can be done like this (eg template services), but in a lot
of cases this will allow to avoid typos.
There is a matching option on the unit option
(`systemd.units."foo.service".name`) as well.
Before this patch, if we:
1. add a new user in the config,
2. mount /home seperately,
3. not set neededForBoot for /home,
4. and run `nixos-rebuild boot`,
the newly added user's home will not be created after a reboot. This
is because when nixos/modules/config/update-users-groups.pl is running
in stage 2 to setup users, /home is not mounted.
This patch fixes this issue.
it's really easy to accidentally write the wrong systemd Exec* directive, ones
that works most of the time but fails when users include systemd metacharacters
in arguments that are interpolated into an Exec* directive. add a few functions
analogous to escapeShellArg{,s} and some documentation on how and when to use them.
With the previous change that enabled error propagation through
`inherit_errexit`, the script would fail if `errexit` was set, but
`inherit_errexit` was not. This is due to `shopt -p` exiting with an
error if the option is disabled. To work around this, use the exit
code instead of the text value returned by `shopt -p`.
Fixes#160869.
If an error occurs 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.
/var/lib/nixos is used by update-users-groups.pl in the activation
script for storing uid/gid mappings. If this has its own mountpoint
(as is the case in some setups with fine-grained bind mounts pointing
into persistent storage), the mappings are written to /var/lib, /var,
or /. These may be backed by a tmpfs or (otherwise ephemeral storage),
resulting in the mappings not persisting between reboots.
- Give a more accurate description of how fileSystems.<name/>.neededForBoot
works
- Give a more detailed description of how fileSystems.<name/>.encrypted.keyFile
works
Introduce new functions which allows modules to define options where,
if the input is an attrset and the output is JSON, the user can define
arbitrary secrets.
