MariaDB has been updated to 10.4, MariaDB Galera to 26.4.
|
|
Before you upgrade, it would be best to take a backup of your database.
|
|
For MariaDB Galera Cluster, see <link xlink:href="https://mariadb.com/kb/en/upgrading-from-mariadb-103-to-mariadb-104-with-galera-cluster/">Upgrading
|
|
from MariaDB 10.3 to MariaDB 10.4 with Galera Cluster</link> instead.
|
|
Before doing the upgrade read <link xlink:href="https://mariadb.com/kb/en/upgrading-from-mariadb-103-to-mariadb-104/#incompatible-changes-between-103-and-104">Incompatible
|
|
Changes Between 10.3 and 10.4</link>.
|
|
After the upgrade you will need to run <literal>mysql_upgrade</literal>.
|
|
MariaDB 10.4 introduces a number of changes to the authentication process, intended to make things easier and more
|
|
intuitive. See <link xlink:href="https://mariadb.com/kb/en/authentication-from-mariadb-104/">Authentication from MariaDB 10.4</link>.
|
|
unix_socket auth plugin does not use a password, and uses the connecting user's UID instead. When a new MariaDB data directory is initialized, two MariaDB users are
|
|
created and can be used with new unix_socket auth plugin, as well as traditional mysql_native_password plugin: root@localhost and mysql@localhost. To actually use
|
|
the traditional mysql_native_password plugin method, one must run the following:
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
services.mysql.initialScript = pkgs.writeText "mariadb-init.sql" ''
|
|
ALTER USER root@localhost IDENTIFIED VIA mysql_native_password USING PASSWORD("verysecret");
|
|
'';
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
When MariaDB data directory is just upgraded (not initialized), the users are not created or modified.

Since this release there's an easy way to customize your PHP
|
|
install to get a much smaller base PHP with only wanted
|
|
extensions enabled. See the following snippet installing a
|
|
smaller PHP with the extensions <literal>imagick</literal>,
|
|
<literal>opcache</literal>, <literal>pdo</literal> and
|
|
<literal>pdo_mysql</literal> loaded:
|
|
|

<programlisting>

environment.systemPackages = [
|
|
(pkgs.php.withExtensions
|
|
({ all, ... }: with all; [

imagick

opcache
|

pdo
|
|
pdo_mysql
|

])

)
|

];</programlisting>
|

The default <literal>php</literal> attribute hasn't lost any
|
|
extensions. The <literal>opcache</literal> extension has been
|
|
added.

The updated <literal>php</literal> attribute is now easily

config.php.embed = true;

config.php.apxs2 = false;

In addition to the hostname, the fully qualified domain name (FQDN),
|
|
which consists of <literal>${cfg.hostName}</literal> and
|
|
<literal>${cfg.domain}</literal> is now added to
|
|
<literal>/etc/hosts</literal>, to allow local FQDN resolution, as used by the
|
|
<literal>hostname --fqdn</literal> command and other applications that
|
|
try to determine the FQDN. These new entries take precedence over entries
|
|
from the DNS which could cause regressions in some very specific setups.
|
|
Additionally the hostname is now resolved to <literal>127.0.0.2</literal>
|
|
instead of <literal>127.0.1.1</literal> to be consistent with what
|
|
<literal>nss-myhostname</literal> (from systemd) returns.

The old behaviour can e.g. be restored by using

<literal>networking.hosts = lib.mkForce { "127.0.1.1" = [ config.networking.hostName ]; };</literal>.

The hostname (<literal>networking.hostName</literal>) must now be a valid
|
|
DNS label (see RFC 1035) and as such must not contain the domain part.
|
|
This means that the hostname must start with a letter, end with a letter
|
|
or digit, and have as interior characters only letters, digits, and
|
|
hyphen. The maximum length is 63 characters. Additionally it is
|
|
recommended to only use lower-case characters.

The GRUB specific option <option>boot.loader.grub.extraInitrd</option>
|
|
has been replaced with the generic option
|
|
<option>boot.initrd.secrets</option>. This option creates a secondary
|
|
initrd from the specified files, rather than using a manually created
|
|
initrd file.
|
|
|
|
Due to an existing bug with <option>boot.loader.grub.extraInitrd</option>,
|
|
it is not possible to directly boot an older generation that used that
|
|
option. It is still possible to rollback to that generation if the required
|
|
initrd file has not been deleted.

Please note that Rust packages utilizing a custom build/install procedure
|
|
(e.g. by using a <filename>Makefile</filename>) or test suites that rely on the
|
|
structure of the <filename>target/</filename> directory may break due to those assumptions.
|
|
For further information, please read the Rust section in the Nixpkgs manual.

The cc- and binutils-wrapper's "infix salt" and <literal>_BUILD_</literal> and <literal>_TARGET_</literal> user infixes have been replaced with with a "suffix salt" and suffixes and <literal>_FOR_BUILD</literal> and <literal>_FOR_TARGET</literal>.

This matches the autotools convention for env vars which standard for these things, making interfacing with other tools easier.

The scripted networking system now uses <literal>.link</literal> files in
|
|
<literal>/etc/systemd/network</literal> to configure mac address and link MTU,
|
|
instead of the sometimes buggy <literal>network-link-*</literal> units, which
|
|
have been removed.
|
|
Bringing the interface up has been moved to the beginning of the
|
|
<literal>network-addresses-*</literal> unit.
|
|
Note this doesn't require <command>systemd-networkd</command> - it's udev that
|
|
parses <literal>.link</literal> files.
|
|
Extra care needs to be taken in the presence of <link xlink:href="https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkInterfaceNames#THE_.22PERSISTENT_NAMES.22_SCHEME">legacy udev rules</link>
|
|
to rename interfaces, as MAC Address and MTU defined in these options can only match on the original link name.
|
|
In such cases, you most likely want to create a <literal>10-*.link</literal> file through <xref linkend="opt-systemd.network.links"/> and set both name and MAC Address / MTU there.
