Udev changed its internal naming, so this rule file no longer applied correctly.
Therefore some properties such as network driver no longer matched in
systemd-networkd.
After updating we have more properties in systemd-networkd:
$ sudo networkctl status wlp3s0
...
Driver: iwlwifi
...
To prevent this in future, the file is no copied from systemd directly
The unnecessary dependency of sockets.target on kresd.service causes a
dependency cycle preventing kresd.service from starting at boot:
sockets.target -> kresd.service -> basic.target -> sockets.target
This allows to configure additional configuration files for Synapse. This way
secrets can be kept in a secure place on the file system without a need to go
through the Nix store.
"Ejecting" from the Finder ejects the entire device which is then not available for dd. diskutil unmountDisk does the right thing. Furthermore writing to diskN instead of rdiskN failed to complete even after waiting >10 minutes.
To make the configuration of `yabar` more pleasant and easier to
validate, a NixOS module will be quite helpful.
An example config could look like this:
```
{
programs.yabar = {
enable = true;
bars.top.indicators.exec = "YA_DATE";
};
}
```
The module adds a user-controlled systemd service which runs `yabar` after
starting up X.
before:
- /var/run/memcached is a bad default for a socket path, since its
parent directory must be writeable by memcached.
- Socket directory was not created by the module itself -> this was
left as a burden to the user?
- Having a static uid with a dynamic user name is not very useful.
after:
- Replace services.memcached.socket by a boolean flag. This simplifies
our code, since we do not have to check if the user specifies a
path with a parent directory that should be owned by memcached
(/run/memcached/memcached.sock -> /run/memcached).
- Remove fixed uid/gid allocation. The only file ever owned by the
daemon is the socket that will be recreated on every start.
Therefore user and group ids do not need to be static.
- only create the memcached user, if the user has not specified a
different one. The major use case for changing option is to allow
existing services (such as php-fpm) opening the local unix socket.
If we would unconditionally create a user that option would be
useless.
apps.plugin requires capabilities for full process monitoring. with
1.9.0, netdata allows multiple directories to search for plugins and the
setuid directory can be specified here.
the module is backwards compatible with older configs. a test is
included that verifies data gathering for the elevated privileges. one
additional attribute is added to make configuration more generic than
including configuration in string form.
It is quite complicated to test services using the test-driver when
declaring user services with `systemd.user.services` such as many
X11-based services like `xautolock.service`.
This change adds an optional `$user` parameter to each systemd-related
function in the test-driver and runs `systemctl --user` commands using
`su -l $user -c ...` and sets the `XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` variable
accordingly and a new function named `systemctl` which is able to run a
systemd command with or without a specified user.
The change can be confirmed with a simple VM declaration like this:
```
import ./nixos/tests/make-test.nix ({ pkgs, lib }:
with lib;
{
name = "systemd-user-test";
nodes.machine = {
imports = [ ./nixos/tests/common/user-account.nix ];
services.xserver.enable = true;
services.xserver.displayManager.auto.enable = true;
services.xserver.displayManager.auto.user = "bob";
services.xserver.xautolock.enable = true;
};
testScript = ''
$machine->start;
$machine->waitForX;
$machine->waitForUnit("xautolock.service", "bob");
$machine->stopJob("xautolock.service", "bob");
$machine->startJob("xautolock.service", "bob");
$machine->systemctl("list-jobs --no-pager", "bob");
$machine->systemctl("show 'xautolock.service' --no-pager", "bob");
'';
})
```
Instead of polluting the environment with environment variables which
are inherited by processes spawned from awesome, use the command line
argument "--search" to add things to the search path.

This enables znapzend users to specify its full configuration through
NixOS options, without ever needing to use the stateful `znapzendzetup`
command.
This works by running znapzendzetup with the specified config in
ExecPre, just before the znapzend daemon is started.
There is also the `pure` option which will clear all previous znapzend setups,
making it as stateless as can get, as only the setup declared in
configuration.nix will be persisted.

This makes the commonHook option work also for (read-only) Nix store
paths. Currently it fails on the second activation, because the
destination is read-only.
Currently libvirt requires two qemu derivations: qemu and qemu_kvm which is just a truncated version of qemu (defined as qemu.override { hostCpuOnly = true; }).
This patch exposes an option virtualisation.libvirtd.qemuPackage which allows to choose which package to use:
* pkgs.qemu_kvm if all your guests have the same CPU as host, or
* pkgs.qemu which allows to emulate alien architectures (for example ARMV7L on X86_64), or
* a custom derivation
virtualisation.libvirtd.enableKVM option is vague and could be deprecate in favor of virtualisation.libvirtd.qemuPackage, anyway it does allow to enable/disable kvm.

feh is used to set background image for desktop managers that do not
support it directly, however there is no need to include it in PATH.
Fixes#17450.
Users were confused that the error message said config.networking.hostId, and indeed that did nothing to fix their problem.
Update the error message to specify the option they should actually set.
Now there are separate `xfce4.xfce4mixer_pulse` and `xfce4.xfcevolumed_pulse` attributes for PulseAudio versions of these packages, instead of relying on Nixpkgs option. Mind that xfce4-volumed and xfce4-volumed-pulse are actually two separate programs without much overlap.
Fakeroot seems to always give the owner write bit to any files touched
inside it (presumably to easily simulate the fact that root can still
modify such files). So do an explicit chmod to remove them.
This should finally solve #32242 after the EC2 images are regenerated
with this change.

Without this, when you've enabled networkmanager and start a
nixos-container the container will briefly have its specified IP
address but then networkmanager starts managing it causing the IP
address to be dropped.
* Add options:
- enable
- davUser (default: "davfs2")
- davGroup (default: "davfs2)
* Add davfs2 user or group if they are not specified in the

bash will load completion scripts in $p/share/bash-completion/completions/ on
startup instead of letting bash-completion do it's lazy loading. Bash startup
will then slow down (very noticeable when bash-completion is installed in a
profile).
This commit leaves loading of scripts in the hands of bash-completion,
improving startup time for everyone using `enableCompletion`.

In commit ec9dc73 restarting NetworkManager after resume from
suspend/hibernate was introduced.
When I initially switch to NixOS I started noticing a high delay between
wakeup and re-connecting to WiFi & wired networks. The delay increased
from a few seconds (on my previous distro, same software stack) to
almost half a minute with NixOS.
I (locally) applied the change in this commit a few weeks ago and tested
since then. The notebook/mobile device experience has improved a lot.
Reconnects are as before switching to NixOS.
Issue #24401 could be related to this. Since I am not using KDE/plasma5
I can only guess…
This allows one to specify "related packages" in NixOS that get rendered into
the configuration.nix(5) man page. The interface philosophy is pretty much
stolen from TeX bibliography.
This is required on the ThunderX CPUs on the Packet.net Type-2A
machines that have a GICv3. For some reason the default is to create a
GICv2 independent of the host hardware...
These packages will be placed into an environment using
`backendsToPackages`. This function explicitly maps backends to
`pkgs.nodePackages.${type}` unless it's a builtin. This ensures that only
valid backends that work on NixOS are used (if not, the build already
breaks at evaluation time).
The log will be redirected to `stdout` to be able to watch the entire
output using `journalctl`.
Configuration parameters for the backends need to be set using
`services.statsd.extraConfig` as each backend has its own options and
all of them shouldn't be validated and checked explicitly and manually.
Tunnel configuration has no member named "host" - i2pd does but it's called "address" in the options. As a result, no tunnel configuration is generated.
* Fix attribute check in inTunnels
* Fix integer to string coercion in inTunnels
* Add destinationPort option for outTunnels
Added the boolean option:
networking.networkmanager.enableStrongSwan
which enables the networkmanager_strongswan plugin and adds
strongswanNM to the dbus packages.
This was contributed by @wucke13, @eqyiel and @globin.

There are security fixes in multiple packages /cc #32117,
so I'm merging a little earlier, with a few thousand jobs
still not finished on Hydra for x86_64-darwin and aarch64-linux.
- /var/run -> /run as the former is deprecated
- configure openal to use pulseaudio if pulseaudio is enabled
- configure libao to use pulseaudio if pulseaudio is enabled
For some reason, the GNOME 3.26 update broke the overrides. It turns
out the overrides now need to come before the overridden schemas in the
XDG_DATA_DIRS variable. This is not possible in general due to applications
prefixing the variable (e.g. in wrapGAppsHook).
To fix this, a new environment variable NIX_GSETTINGS_OVERRIDES_DIR
was introduced. It has greater priority than XDG_DATA_DIRS but lower
than GSETTINGS_SCHEMA_DIR. A separate variable was chosen in order not
to block the built-in one for users.
With libinput used for keyboard, base rules produce incorrect keyboard
layouts. We are removing the option as recommended in the XKB configuration
guide [1] to let X server choose the ruleset. It looks like it chooses
evdev rules which seem to work for some reason

The munin-node service used wrapProgram to inject environment variables.
This doesn't work because munin plugins depend on argv[0], which is
overwritten when the executable is a script with a shebang line (example
below).
This commit removes the wrappers and instead passes the required
environment variables to munin-node.
Eliminating the wrappers resulted in some broken plugins, e.g., meminfo
and hddtemp_smartctl. That was fixed with the per-plugin configuration.
Example:
The plugin if_eth0 is a symlink to /.../plugins/if_, which uses $0
to determine that it should monitor traffic on the eth0 interface.
if_ is a wrapped program, and runs `exec -a "$0" .if_-wrapped`
.if_-wrapped has a "#!/nix/.../bash" line, which results in bash
changing $0, and as a result the plugin thinks my interface
is called "-wrapped".
Changed extraUsers -> users and one case of extraGroups -> groups in nixos manual chapter 7.
According to chatter on IRC these are the proper names for these configuration options nowadays.
Modified based on feedback from Jörg Talheim.
Previously only the line numbers of a giant, internally generated XML file were
printed, without any kind of debuggability.
Now at least the mentioned lines are printed with a little bit of surrounding
context (to have something to grep for).

The bash module currently sets the `/etc/inputrc` unconditionally,
which prevents easy user override. This commit lowers the priority of
the setting to "option default" level, which allows a user to override
the value using either

or

Fixes#28443
Fixed few invocations to `systemctl` to have an absolute path. Additionally add
LOCALE_ARCHIVE so that perl stops spewing warning messages.
Since ssh-dss is no longer supported by default, users relying on those
keys for their login may be locked out. They should ideally use stronger
keys, but adding the support for ssh-dss back in can also be done
through extraConfig.
Looking at upstream git repo (git://github.com/Yubico/pam-u2f.git) the
docs initially said the path was ~/.yubico/u2f_keys, but it was later
changed to ~/.config/Yubico/u2f_keys (in 2015).
I have run pam_u2f.so with "debug" option and observed that the correct
path indeed is ~/.config/Yubico/u2f_keys.
