ecb73fd555 introduced a new keepVmState
CLI flag for test-driver.py. This CLI flags gets forwarded to the
Machine class through create_machine.
It created a regression for the boot tests where __main__ end up not
being evaluated. See
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/97346#issuecomment-690951837 for
bug report.
Defaulting keepVmState to false when __main__ ends up not being
evaluated.
This reverts commit 42eebd7ade, reversing
changes made to b169bfc9e2.
This breaks nfs3.simple test and even current PR #97656 wouldn't fix it.
Therefore let's revert for now to unblock the channels.
This is a temporary fix for #97433. A more proper fix has been
implemented upstream in systemd/systemd#17001, however until it gets
backported, we are stuck with ignoring the error.
After the backport lands, this commit should be reverted.
`rngd` seems to be the root cause for slow boot issues, and its functionality is
redundant since kernel v3.17 (2014), which introduced a `krngd` task (in kernel
space) that takes care of pulling in data from hardware RNGs:

Closes: #96067
This commit fixes the ejabberd tests for hydra:
mod_http_upload and mod_disco need to be explicitly enabled, and a
handler needs to be setup to make it work. Also, the client needs to be
able to contact the server.
The commit also fixes the situation where http upload failed: in that
case the client would wait forever because nothing catched the error.
Finally, there remains a non-reproducible error where ejabberd server
fails to start with an error like:
format: "Failed to create cookie file '/var/lib/ejabberd/.erlang.cookie': eacces"
(happens ~15%) I tried to check existence of /var/lib/ejabberd/ in
pre-start script and saw nothing that would explain this error, so I
gave up about this error in particular.
Now allows applying external overlays either in form of
.dts file, literal dts context added to store or precompiled .dtbo.
If overlays are defined, kernel device-trees are compiled with '-@'
so the .dtb files contain symbols which we can reference in our
overlays.
Since `fdtoverlay` doesn't respect `/ compatible` by itself
we query compatible strings of both `dtb` and `dtbo(verlay)`
and apply only if latter is substring of the former.
Also adds support for filtering .dtb files (as there are now nearly 1k
dtbs).

The commit enforces buildPackages in the builder but neglects
the fact that the builder is intended to run on the target system.
Because of that, the builder will fail when remotely building a
configuration eg. with nixops or nix-copy-closure.
This reverts commit a6ac6d00f9.
Following changes in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/91092 the `path` attribute is now a list
instead of being a string. This resulted resulted in the following evaluation error:
"cannot coerce a list to a string, at [...]/nixos/modules/services/networking/openvpn.nix:16:18"
so we now need to convert it to the right type ourselves.
Closes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/97360.
Add the option `environmentFile` to allow passing secrets to the service
without adding them to the Nix store, while keeping the current
configuration via the existing environment file intact.
The previous version of the code would only kick in if the state
directory path pointed at a *file*, which never occurs. Making that
codepath actually work reveals an ordering bug, which this patch fixes
as well.
It also replaces the confusing, imperative case log message "delete VM
state directory" with "deleting VM state directory".
Finally, we hint the user about how to prevent this deletion. IE. by
passing the --keep-vm-state flag.

Right now the UX for installing NixOS on a headless system is very bad.
To enable sshd without physical steps users have to have either physical
access or need to be very knowledge-able to figure out how to modify the
installation image by hand to put an `sshd.service` symlink in the
right directory in /nix/store. This is in particular a problem on ARM
SBCs (single board computer) but also other hardware where network is
the only meaningful way to access the hardware.
This commit enables sshd by default. This does not give anyone access to
the NixOS installer since by default. There is no user with a non-empty
password or key. It makes it easy however to add ssh keys to the
installation image (usb stick, sd-card on arm boards) by simply mounting
it and adding a keys to `/root/.ssh/authorized_keys`.
Importantly this should not require nix/nixos on the machine that
prepare the installation device and even feasiable on non-linux systems
by using ext4 third party drivers.
Potential new threats: Since this enables sshd by default a
potential bug in openssh could lead to remote code execution. Openssh
has a very good track-record over the last 20 years, which makes it
far more likely that Linux itself would have a remote code execution
vulnerability. It is trusted by millions of servers on many operating
systems to be exposed to the internet by default.

systemd-confinement's automatic package extraction does not work correctly
if ExecStarts ExecReload etc are lists.
Add an extra flatten to make things smooth.
Fixes#96840.
xss-lock needs XDG_SESSION_ID to respond to loginctl lock-session(s)
(and possibly other session operations such as idle hint management).
This change adds XDG_SESSION_ID to the list of imported environment
variables when starting systemctl.
Inspired by home-manager, add importVariables configuration.
Set session to XDG_SESSION_ID when running xss-lock as a service.

We apparently didn't fit anymore. I don't think this test is meant
to (also) check closure size.
Note: as of this commit, the test is blocked by a fontconfig problem,
so I tested with that merge temporarily reverted.
