Prior to this contribution, every boot with a default configuration was
considered `ConditionFirstBoot=true` by systemd, since /etc/machine-id
was not commited to disk.
This also extends the systemd with a check for subsequent boots not
being considered first boots.
In preparation for the deprecation of `stdenv.isX`.
These shorthands are not conducive to cross-compilation because they
hide the platforms.
Darwin might get cross-compilation for which the continued usage of `stdenv.isDarwin` will get in the way
One example of why this is bad and especially affects compiler packages
https://www.github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/343059
There are too many files to go through manually but a treewide should
get users thinking when they see a `hostPlatform.isX` in a place where it
doesn't make sense.

This adds support for declaring tmpfiles rules exclusively for the
systemd initrd. Configuration is possible through the new option
`boot.initrd.systemd.tmpfiles.settings` that shares the same interface as
`systemd.tmpfiles.settings`.
I did intentionally not replicate the `rules` interface here, given that
the settings attribute set is more versatile than the list of strings
used for `rules`. This should also make it unnecessary to implement the
workaround from 1a68e21d47 again.
A self-contained `tmpfiles.d` directory is generated from the new initrd
settings and it is added to the initrd as a content path at
`/etc/tmpfiles.d`.
The stage-1 `systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service` is now altered to no longer
operate under the `/sysroot` prefix, because the `/sysroot` hierarchy
cannot be expected to be available when the default upstream service is
started.
To handle files under `/sysroot` a slightly altered version of the
upstream default service is introduced. This new unit
`systemd-tmpfiles-setup-sysroot.service` operates only under the
`/sysroot` prefix and it is ordered between `initrd-fs.target` and the
nixos activation.
Config related to tmpfiles was moved from initrd.nix to tmpfiles.nix.
One of the main premises of NixOS is being able to declaratively specify
the services enabled/running on a machine. Since systemd presets allow
to bypass this this declarative nature, add a single preset with the
highest priority (prefixed with "00") that makes systemd ignore all
other presets.
If we let systemd setup /etc/machine-id, we get to use
ConditionFirstBoot in systemd units and any other integrations related
to systemd's detection of first boot. See machine-id(5).
When `services.resolved` is enabled, then `resolve [!UNAVAIL=return]`
is added to `system.nssDatabases.hosts` with priority 501,
which prevents lower-priority NSS modules from running
unless systemd-resolved is not available.
Quoting from `man nss-resolve`:
> To activate the NSS module, add "resolve [!UNAVAIL=return]" to the line

Note that the man page (just) recommends "early" and means with this
"before the 'files' and 'dns' entries". It does not insist on being
first or excluding other modules.
For this reason, libvirt NSS modules should run before the `resolve`
module. They should come right next to `mymachines` because both are
conceptually very similar -- they resolve local VMs/containers.
Since the data source of the libvirt NSS modules are local
plain text files (see source code of the libvirt NSS module),
no performance impact is expected form this raise of priorities.
Other NSS modules in NixOS also explicitly set their priority, which is
why this change increases consistency.
Fixes#322022
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.
There were several modules, critically including NetworkManager, which
were not prepared for this change. Most of the change was good,
however. Let's bring back the dependency and change the assertion to a
warning for now.
Previously we required network-online.target for multi-user.target. This
has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a
bad move (or at least, very nonstandard):
15d761a525 (commitcomment-128564097)
This was done because of fragile tests and services declaring
dependencies on multi-user.target when they meant network-online.target.
Let's rip off the bandaid and fix our tests.
The `AUTOFS4_FS` name appears to be a legacy naming stub:

That has been remove in 6.6 kernel and results in a failure:

This fixes notably the fact that /dev/zfs was not usable anymore as a user,
and potentially other things.
Tracked in systemd upstream under issue number 28653, 28765.
`systemd-growfs@.service` and `systemd-growfs-root.service` became real units since:
50072ccf1b
we need to add them to the nixos module so growfs works again
