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.
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.
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).
using regular strings works well for docbook because docbook is not as
whitespace-sensitive as markdown. markdown would render all of these as
code blocks when given the chance.
this renders the same in the manpage and a little more clearly in the
html manual. in the manpage there continues to be no distinction from
regular text, the html manual gets code-type markup (which was probably
the intention for most of these uses anyway).
now nix-doc-munge will not introduce whitespace changes when it replaces
manpage references with the MD equivalent.
no change to the manpage, changes to the HTML manual are whitespace only.
make (almost) all links appear on only a single line, with no
unnecessary whitespace, using double quotes for attributes. this lets us
automatically convert them to markdown easily.
the few remaining links are extremely long link in a gnome module, we'll
come back to those at a later date.
the conversion procedure is simple:
- find all things that look like options, ie calls to either `mkOption`
or `lib.mkOption` that take an attrset. remember the attrset as the
option
- for all options, find a `description` attribute who's value is not a
call to `mdDoc` or `lib.mdDoc`
- textually convert the entire value of the attribute to MD with a few
simple regexes (the set from mdize-module.sh)
- if the change produced a change in the manual output, discard
- if the change kept the manual unchanged, add some text to the
description to make sure we've actually found an option. if the
manual changes this time, keep the converted description
this procedure converts 80% of nixos options to markdown. around 2000
options remain to be inspected, but most of those fail the "does not
change the manual output check": currently the MD conversion process
does not faithfully convert docbook tags like <code> and <package>, so
any option using such tags will not be converted at all.
Instead of hard-coding a single `configFile` for
`privacyidea-ldap-proxy.service` which is pretty unmergable with other
declarations it now uses a RFC42-like approach. Also to make sure that
secrets can be handled properly without ending up in the Nix store, it's
possible to inject secrets via envsubst
{
services.privacyidea.ldap-proxy = {
enable = true;
environmentFile = "/run/secrets/ldap-pw";
settings = {
privacyidea.instance = "privacyidea.example.org";
service-account = {
dn = "uid=readonly,ou=serviceaccounts,dc=example,dc=org";
password = "$LDAP_PW";
};
};
};
}
and the following secret file (at `/run/secrets`):
LDAP_PW=<super-secret ldap pw>
For backwards-compat the old `configFile`-option is kept, but it throws
a deprecation warning and is mutually exclusive with the
`settings`-attrset. Also, it doesn't support secrets injection with
`envsubst` & `environmentFile`.
* Update to the latest upstream version of pass-secret-service that includes
systemd service files.
* Add patch to fix use of a function that has been removed from the Python
Cryptography library in NixOS 22.05
* Install systemd service files in the Nix package.
* Add NixOS test to ensure the D-Bus API activates the service unit.
* Add myself as a maintainer to the package and NixOS test.
* Use checkTarget instead of equivalent custom checkPhase.
* nixos/vault: add option to start in dev mode.
This is not only useful for nixos tests i.e. when testing vault agent
setups but also when playing around with vault in local setups. In our
tests we can now make use of this option to test more vault features.
i.e. adding this feature has uncovered the need for a `StateDirectory`.
* Update nixos/modules/services/security/vault.nix

If `services.tor.client.enable` is set to false (the default), the `SOCKSPort` option is not added to the torrc file but since Tor defaults to listening on port 9050 when the option is not specified, the tor client is not actually disabled. To fix this, simply set `SOCKSPort` to 0, which disables the client.
Use `mkForce` to prevent potentially two different `SOCKSPort` options in the torrc file, with one of them being 0 as this would cause Tor to fail to start. When `services.tor.client.enable` is set to false, this should always be disabled.
When `services.resolved.enable` is set to true, the file /etc/resolv.conf becomes a symlink to /etc/static/resolv.conf, which is a symlink to /run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf. Without this commit, tor does not have access to this file thanks to systemd confinement. This results in the following warning when tor starts:
```
[warn] Unable to stat resolver configuration in '/etc/resolv.conf': No such file or directory
[warn] Could not read your DNS config from '/etc/resolv.conf' - please investigate your DNS configuration. This is possibly a problem. Meanwhile, falling back to local DNS at 127.0.0.1.
```
To fix this, simply allow read-only access to the file when resolved is in use.
According to https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/161818#discussion_r824820462, the symlink may also point to /run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf, so allow that as well.
Tor waits ShutdownWaitLength seconds (30s by default) before actually shutting down. Since the systemd timeout is also set to 30 seconds, this results in a race condition that ends up killing Tor most of the time on my machine during shutdown.
To fix this, add the ShutdownWaitLength setting and tell systemd to wait 30 seconds more than that.
Arch Linux also has `TimeoutSec` set to 60 seconds: 6df716fe19/trunk/tor.service.
The Intel SGX DCAP driver makes the SGX application enclave device and
the SGX provisioning enclave available below the path `/dev/sgx/`. Since
Linux 5.11, a derivation of the DCAP driver is part of the kernel and
available through the X86_SGX config option; NixOS enables this option
by default.
In contrast to the out-of-tree DCAP driver, the in-tree SGX driver uses
a flat hierarchy for the SGX devices resulting in the paths
`/dev/sgx_enclave` for the application enclave device and
`/dev/sgx_provison` for the provisioning enclave device.
As of this commit, even the latest version of the Intel SGX PSW
libraries still tries to open the (legacy) DCAP paths only. This means
that SGX software currently cannot find the required SGX devices even if
the system actually supports SGX through the in-tree driver. Intel wants
to change this behavior in an upcoming release of intel/linux-sgx.
Having said that, SGX software assuming the SGX devices below
`/dev/sgx/` will prevail. Therefore, this commit introduces the NixOS
configuration option `hardware.cpu.intel.sgx.enableDcapCompat` which
creates the necessary symlinks to support existing SGX software. The
option defaults to true as it is currently the only way to support SGX
software. Also, enabling the SGX AESM service enables the option.
The permissions of the devices `/dev/sgx_enclave` and
`/dev/sgx_provison` remain the same, i.e., are not affected regardless
of having the new option enabled or not.
most modules can be evaluated for their documentation in a very
restricted environment that doesn't include all of nixpkgs. this
evaluation can then be cached and reused for subsequent builds, merging
only documentation that has changed into the cached set. since nixos
ships with a large number of modules of which only a few are used in any
given config this can save evaluation a huge percentage of nixos
options available in any given config.
in tests of this caching, despite having to copy most of nixos/, saves
about 80% of the time needed to build the system manual, or about two
second on the machine used for testing. build time for a full system
config shrank from 9.4s to 7.4s, while turning documentation off
entirely shortened the build to 7.1s.
When accessing the Audit log, I get an HTTP 502 when the frontend
requests `/audit` and I get the following error in my `nginx`-log:
Dec 20 22:12:48 ldap nginx[336]: 2021/12/20 22:12:48 [error] 336#336: *8421 recv() failed (104: Connection reset by peer) while reading response header from upstream, client: 10.237.0.1, server: _, request: "GET /audit/?action=**&action_detail=**&administrator=**&client=**&date=**&duration=**&info=**&page=1&page_size=10&policies=**&privacyidea_server=**&realm=**&resolver=**&serial=**&sortorder=desc&startdate=**&success=**&tokentype=**&user=** HTTP/1.1", upstream: "uwsgi://unix:/run/privacyidea/socket:", host: "ldap.ist.nicht-so.sexy", referrer: "https://ldap.ist.nicht-so.sexy/"
This is because of an "invalid request block size"-error according to
`journalctl -u privacyidea.service`:

Increasing the buffer to 8192 fixes the problem for me.
adds defaultText for all options that use `cfg.*` values in their
defaults, but only for interpolations with no extra processing (other
than toString where necessary)
This adds a `wantedBy` clause to the user systemd service for
yubikey-agent, to ensure an enabled agent is started on boot. This
brings the behavior inline with existing documentation.
If the user has selected a graphical pinentry program, then we need to
wait for the graphical environment to exist before starting the
yubikey-agent. I've found that if we start the agent earlier it will
fail when we perform an ssh command later.
Tor attempts to detect what external IP address a machine is using by
listing addresses on all network interfaces on the system. This listing
is done using getifaddrs(3), which relies on netlink in order to get
IPv6 address information.
This change fixes Tor not finding the relay's IPv6 address unless
explicitly configured via either an ORPort directive or via DNS
resolution of the machine hostname.
I tried to make this as non-breaking as possible, but it will still
break things slightly for people expecting certain file names in the
packages themselves.
The previous justification for using "VERBOSE" is incorrect,
because OpenSSH does use level INFO to log "which key was used
to log in" for sccessful logins, see:
6247812c76/auth.c (L323-L328)
Also update description to the wording of the sshd_config man page.
`fail2ban` needs, sshd to be "VERBOSE" to work well, thus
the `fail2ban` module sets it to "VERBOSE" if enabled.
The docs are updated accordingly.
ChangeLog: https://github.com/privacyidea/privacyidea/releases/tag/v3.6
Unfortunately we have to use `sqlalchemy` at 1.3 for `sqlsoup`. As
`sqlalchemy` is required by a lot of packages, I decided to move this
package out of `pythonPackages` itself and instantiate a new
`pythonPackages` inside the expression where `sqlalchemy` points to
`sqlalchemy_1_3`.
While looking at the sphinx package I noticed it was heavily
undermaintained, which is when we noticed nand0p has been inactive for
roughly 18 months. It is therefore prudent to assume they will not be
maintaining their packages, modules and tests.
- Their last contribution to nixpkgs was in 2019/12
- On 2021/05/08 I wrote them an email to the address listed in the
maintainer-list, which they didn't reply to.
* add an example for services.tor.settings.HidServAuth
* fix HidServAuth validation to require ".onion"
Per https://manpages.debian.org/testing/tor/torrc.5.en.html :
> Valid onion addresses contain 16 characters in a-z2-7 plus ".onion"
some ban actions need additional packages (eg ipset). since actions can be
provided by the user we need something general that's easy to configure.
we could also enable ipset regardless of the actual configuration of the system
if the iptables firewall is in use (like sshguard does), but that seems very
clumsy and wouldn't easily solve the binary-not-found problems other actions may
also have.
it's not possible to set a different default maxretry value in the DEFAULT jail
because the module already does so. expose the maxretry option to the
configuration to remedy this. (we can't really remove it entirely because
fail2ban defaults to 5)
backends changing shouldn't be very likely, but services may well change. we
should restart sshguard from nixos-rebuild instead of merely plopping down a new
config file and waiting for the user to restart sshguard.
As the only consequence of isSystemUser is that if the uid is null then
it's allocated below 500, if a user has uid = something below 500 then
we don't require isSystemUser to be set.
