With 'set 3 boot on' the error 'file system "/boot" is not a FAT EFI
system partition (ESP) file system' occurs when running
"nixos-install" during the basic installation (tested in in a
VirtualBox VM).
In certain cases, for example when custom OpenLDAP modules are
compiled into the binary, users may want to override the package used
for OpenLDAP.
This is especially common in setups where LDAP is the primary
authentication source, as good password hashing mechanisms need to be
enabled as extra modules.
nixos/tests/initrd-openvpn: Add test for openvpn in the initramfs
The module in this commit adds new options that allows the
integration of an OpenVPN client into the initrd.
This can be used e.g. to remotely unlock LUKS devices.
This commit also adds two tests for `boot.initrd.network.openvpn`.
The first one is a basic test to validate that a failing connection
does not prevent the machine from booting.
The second test validates that this module actually creates a valid
openvpn connection.
For this, it spawns three nodes:
- The client that uses boot.initrd.network.openvpn
- An OpenVPN server that acts as gateway and forwards a port
to the client
- A node that is external to the OpenVPN network
The client connects to the OpenVPN server and spawns a netcat instance
that echos a value to every client.
Afterwards, the external node checks if it receives this value over the
forwarded port on the OpenVPN gateway.
We remove the configFile build flag override in the NixOS module.
Instead of embedding the conf file link to the binaries, we symlink it
to /etc/nsd/nsd.nix, the hardcoded config file location for the
various CLI nsd utilities.
This config file build option override is triggerring a nsd rebuild
for each configuration change. This prevent us to use the nixos cache
in many cases.

test failed because gnutls-cli does not properly report connection
errors any more, fixed by increasing the debug level for gnutls-cli
Fixes: #84507Closes: #90718
This can be used to explicitly specify a specific dtb file, relative to
the dtb base.
Update the generic-extlinux-compatible module to make use of this option.
Some bootloaders might not properly detect the model.
If the specific model is known by configuration, provide a way to
explicitly point to a specific dtb in the extlinux.conf.
This option exposes the builder command used to populate an image,
honoring all options except the -c <path-to-default-configuration>
argument.
Useful to have for sdImage.populateRootCommands.
Special care needs to be taken w.r.t cross - the populate command runs
on the host platform, the activation script on the build platform (so
the builders differ)
Keeping the VM state test across several run sometimes lead to subtle
and hard to spot errors in practice. We delete the VM state which
contains (among other things) the qcow volume.
We also introduce a -K (--keep-vm-state) flag making VM state to
persist after the test run. This flag makes test-driver.py to match
its previous behaviour.
Turns out, on smaller images (~800MiB uncompressed sdcard image size),
the current fudge factor is way too small to even get the system to the
phase where it can resize itself.
I first tried with 1.05, but it wasn't enough.
Merges https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware into nixpkgs.
This will give better discoverability, and considering the low
turnover (less than 100 commits in the last year and only 350 total)
it won’t make any dent on the size of nixpkgs.
We have a monorepo, let’s use it

Enhance the heuristics to make sure that a user doesn't accidentally
upgrade across two major versions of Nextcloud (e.g. from v17 to v19).
The original idea/discussion has been documented in the nixpkgs manual[1].
This includes the following changes:
* `nextcloud19` will be selected automatically when having a stateVersion
greater or equal than 20.09. For existing setups, the package has to
be selected manually to avoid accidental upgrades.
* When using `nextcloud18` or older, a warning will be thrown which recommends
upgrading to `nextcloud19`.
* Added a brief paragraph about `nextcloud19` in the NixOS 19.09 release
notes.
* Restart `phpfpm` if the Nextcloud-package (`cfg.package`) changes[2].

This option exposes the prefconfigured nextcloud-occ
program. nextcloud-occ can then be used in other systemd services or
added in environment.systemPackages.
The nextcloud test shows how it can be add in
environment.systemPackages.
