Instead of treating the sddm config a wall of text that doesn't allow us
to override anything, turn it into an attribute set.
We dump `extraConfig` and instead introduce `settings` that is merged
with the module defaults to provide the final configuration.
There is some additional noise in here due to nixpkgs-fmt.
* nixos/xmonad: xmonad config w/ghc+xmessage
When the "config" option isn't set, we use xmonad-with-packages to
provide xmonad with runtime access to an isolated ghc, ensuring it can
recompile and exec a user's local config (e.g. $HOME/.xmonad/xmonad.hs)
regardless of which ghc (if any) is on PATH.
When the "config" option is set, however, we compile a configured xmonad
executable upfront (during nixos-rebuild), and prior to this commit, it
was not provided with runtime access to an isolated ghc.
As a result, with the "config" option set, it was not possible
to recompile and exec a user's local config unless there was a
compatible version of ghc on PATH with the necessary packages (xmonad,
xmonad-contrib, etc.) in its package database. Adding such a ghc to
environment.systemPackages, e.g.
(haskellPackages.ghcWithPackages (ps: with ps; [xmonad xmonad-contrib]))
is problematic because it adds both ghc and an unconfigured xmonad to
PATH, e.g.
$ ls -l $(which xmonad ghc)
lrwxrwxrwx ... /run/current-system/sw/bin/ghc -> /nix/store/...-ghc-8.10.2-with-packages/bin/ghc
lrwxrwxrwx ... /run/current-system/sw/bin/xmonad -> /nix/store/...-ghc-8.10.2-with-packages/bin/xmonad
Having the unconfigured xmonad on PATH is particularly bad because
restarting xmonad will dump the user into the unconfigured version, and
if no local config exists (e.g. in $HOME/.xmonad/xmonad.hs), they'll be
left in this unconfigured state.
In this commmit, we give the configured xmonad runtime access to ghc
like xmonad-with-packages does for the unconfigured version. The aim
is to allow the user to switch between the nixos module's config and a
local config (e.g. $HOME/.xmonad/xmonad.hs) at will, so they can try out
config changes without performing a nixos-rebuild.
Since the xmonad on PATH is the configured executable, there's no
danger a user could unwittingly restart into the unconfigured version,
and because xmonad will refuse to recompile when no local config
exists, there's no danger a user could unwittingly recompile into an
unconfigured version.
Given that a local config exists, the recompile/restart behavior depends
on two factors:
- which entry point is used
* 'XMonad.xmonad' (default)
* 'XMonad.launch' (recommended in "config" option description)
- what operation is triggered (i.e. via mod+q)
* `spawn "xmonad --recompile && xmonad --restart"` (default)
* `restart "xmonad" True`
* custom function
If the default 'XMonad.xmonad' entrypoint and default mod+q operation
are used, hitting mod+q will compile and exec the local config, which
will remain in use until next time the display manager is restarted.
If the entrypoint is changed to 'XMonad.launch' but mod+q left with its
default operation, hitting mod+q will have no visible effect. The logs
(as seen by running `journalctl --identifier xmonad --follow`) will show
an error,
X Error of failed request: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied)
which indicates that the shell was unable to start xmonad because
another window manager is already running (namely, the nixos-configured
xmonad).
https://wiki.haskell.org/Xmonad/Frequently_asked_questions#X_Error_of_failed_request:_BadAccess_.28attempt_to_access_private_resource_denied.29
Changing the mod+q operation to `restart "xmonad" True` (as recommended
in the "config" option's description) will allow a restart of the
nixos-configured xmonad to be triggeredy by hitting mod+q.
Finally, if the entrypoint is 'XMonad.launch', mod+q has been
bound to `restart "xmonad" True` and another key bound to a custom
recompile/restart function (e.g. `compileRestart` as shown in the
"config" option example), the user can switch between the nixos module's
config and their local config, with the custom key switching to the
local config and mod+q switching back.
* nixos/xmonad: refactor let binding
* nixos/xmonad: refactor (eliminate duplicate code)
* nixos/xmonad: install man pages
Prior to this commit, man pages were not installed if the "config"
option was set.
* nixos/xmonad: comment grammar fixups
* nixos/xmonad: writeStateToFile in example config
Calling writeStateToFile prior to recompiling and restarting allows
state (workspaces, etc.) to be preserved across the restart.
* nixos/xmonad: add ivanbrennan to maintainers

* nixos/xmonad: add missing import to example config
Since version 5.2.0 there's non-empty stop phase:
ExecStopPost=/usr/bin/env rm -f "/run/knot-resolver/control/%i"
but it's perfectly OK to run that from a different version
(and typically it's no-op anyway). Real-life example where this helps:

This allows to use files containing only the mpd password without the
permissions, making it easier for other programs connecting to mpd to read the
password from the same password file.
This reverts commit 8f177612b1.
Attempting to start any service from udev when systemd-udev-settle is
used at all hangs the boot for 2min. See issue #107341.
Since slurm-20.11.0.1 the dbd server requires slurmdbd.conf to be
in mode 600 to protect the database password. This change creates
slurmdbd.conf on-the-fly at service startup and thus avoids that
the database password ends up in the nix store.
It's very surprising that services.tor.client.enable would set
services.privoxy.enable. This violates the principle of least
astonishment, because it's Privoxy that can integrate with Tor, rather
than the other way around.
So this patch moves the Privoxy Tor integration to the Privoxy module,
and it also disables it by default. This change is documented in the
release notes.

Mailman can now work with MTAs other than Postfix. You'll have to configure

I don't know why we weren't getting a default logfile back then but Xorg

Dnscrypt-proxy needs some options to be set before it can do anything useful.
Currently, we only apply what the user configured which, by default, is nothing.
This leads to the dnscrypt-proxy2 service failing to start when you only set
`enable = true;` which is not a great user experience.
This patch makes the module take the example config from the upstream repo as a
base on top of which the user-specified settings are applied (it contains sane
defaults).
An option has been added to restore the old behaviour.
`file_exists` also returns `FALSE` if the file is in a directory that
can't be read by the user. This e.g. happens if permissions for
`nixops(1)`-deployment keys aren't configured correctly.
This patch improves the error message for invalid files to avoid
confusion[1].

This patch:

Unbound throws the following error:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
error: failed to list interfaces: getifaddrs: Address family not supported by protocol

The solution is pulled from upstream:

Unfortunately, I had a use-case where `services.nginx.config` was
necessary quite recently. While working on that config I had to look up
the module's code to understand which options can be used and which
don't.
To slightly improve the situation, I changed the documentation like
this:
* Added `types.str` as type since `config` is not mergeable on purpose.
It must be a string as it's rendered verbatim into `nginx.conf` and if
the type is `unspecified`, it can be confused with RFC42-like options.
* Mention which config options that don't generate config in
`nginx.conf` are NOT mutually exclusive.
There was some issues with the fallback to passive mode on 2.3, but on

I've also removed PrivateTmp = true because this is implied by dynamic user.
I've left ProtectHome = true because I believe this is stronger than
ProtectHome = "read-only" which DynamicUser implies.
This resolves issue #101963.
When the service is started and no interface is ready yet, wpa_supplicant
is being exec'd with no `-i` flags, thus failing. Once the interfaces
are ready, the udev rule would fire but wouldn't restart the unit because
it wasn't currently running (see systemctl(1) try-restart).
The solution is to exit (with a clear error message) but always restart
wpa_supplicant when the interfaces are modified.
This release replaces the libpulseaudio shim with a pipewire module that acts as a fake pulseaudio server along with a systemd service that loads that module on demand.
The old slapd.conf is deprecated. Replace with slapd.d, and use this
opportunity to write some structured settings.
Incidentally, this fixes the fact that openldap is reported up before

This gets automatically disabled by docker if the docker backend is

This adds a `package` option to allow for easier overriding of the used
CodiMD version and `runCommandLocal` with `nativeBuildInputs` is now
used to pretty print the configuration.
Other units depend on nss-lookup.target and expect the DNS resolution to
work once that target is reached. The previous version
`wants=nss-lookup.target` made this unit require the nss-lookup.target
to be reached before this was started.
Another change that we can probalby do is drop the before relationship
with the nss-lookup.target. That might just be implied with the current
version.
This option allows users to specify a local UNIX control socket to
"remote control" the daemon. System users, that should be permitted to
access the daemon, must be in the `unbound` group in order to access the
socket. When a socket path is configured we are also creating the
required group.
Currently this only supports the UNIX socket mode while unbound actually
supports more advanced types. Users are still able to configure more
complex scenarios via the `extraConfig` attribute.
When this option is set to `null` (the default) it doesn't affect the
system configuration at all. The unbound defaults for control sockets
apply and no additional groups are created.
Previously we just applied a very minimal set of restrictions and
trusted unbound to properly drop root privs and capabilities.
With this change I am (for the most part) just using the upstream
example unit file for unbound. The main difference is that we start
unbound was `unbound` user with the required capabilities instead of
letting unbound do the chroot & uid/gid changes.
The upstream unit configuration this is based on is a lot stricter with
all kinds of permissions then our previous variant. It also came with
the default of having the `Type` set to `notify`, therefore we are also
using the `unbound-with-systemd` package here. Unbound will start up,
read the configuration files and start listening on the configured ports
before systemd will declare the unit "running". This will likely help
with startup order and the occasional race condition during system
activation where the DNS service is started but not yet ready to answer
queries.
Aditionally to the much stricter runtime environmet I removed the
`/dev/urandom` mount lines we previously had in the code (that would
randomly fail during `stop`-phase).
The `preStart` script is now only required if we enabled the trust
anchor updates (which are still enabled by default).
Another beneefit of the refactoring is that we can now issue reloads via
either `pkill -HUP unbound` or `systemctl reload unbound` to reload the
running configuration without taking the daemon offline. A prerequisite
of this was that unbound configuration is available on a well known path
on the file system. I went for /etc/unbound/unbound.conf as that is the
default in the CLI tooling which in turn enables us to use
`unbound-control` without passing a custom configuration location.
This adds modules for the icecream scheduler and daemon.
Icecream can be used for distributed compilation, especially in
environments with diverse toolchains, since it sends the complete build
environment to the daemon.
Unfortunatley the daemon can't be run with DynamicUser = true, since the
daemon requires to be started as root in order to accept other build
environments, see [1].

For the same reason Alertmanager supports environmentFile to pass

I have also removed some unnecessary duplication in units disabling
rate limiting since setting either interval or burst to zero disables it
