https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/107497 broke booting on many systems that
use tmpOnTmpfs due to the lack of specifying the mount type.
This commit explicitly adds the mount type, which should fix booting
such systems.
The original change may want to be revisited however too.
@poettering decided we only need a limited number of inodes in our /tmp,
so why not limit that for every systemd user? That makes medium-sized nix
builds impossible so this commit restores the old behaviour which is the
kernel default of half the number of physical RAM pages which does not
seem too unreasonable to me.
See https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/fedora-31-control-group-v2 for
details on why this is desirable, and how it impacts containers.
Users that need to keep using the old cgroup hierarchy can re-enable it
by setting `systemd.unifiedCgroupHierarchy` to `false`.
Well-known candidates not supporting that hierarchy, like docker and
hidepid=… will disable it automatically.
Fixes#73800
This used to be done by udev, but that was removed in
systemd/systemd@6b2229c. The links are created by systemd at the end of
stage-2, but activation scripts might need them earlier.
These were broken since 2016:

since StartLimitIntervalSec got moved into [Unit] from [Service].
StartLimitBurst has also been moved accordingly, so let's fix that one
too.
NixOS systems have been producing logs such as:
/nix/store/wf98r55aszi1bkmln1lvdbp7znsfr70i-unit-caddy.service/caddy.service:31:
Unknown key name 'StartLimitIntervalSec' in section 'Service', ignoring.
I have also removed some unnecessary duplication in units disabling
rate limiting since setting either interval or burst to zero disables it
(ad16158c10/src/basic/ratelimit.c (L16))
When the stage-1 logs get imported in to the journal, they all get
loaded with the same timestamp. This makes it difficult to identify
what might be taking a long time in early boot.
It looks like the test sshd key can never be used, because of too open
permissions. My guess is that the current test script works fine once
the user defined ssh-key has been copied into initrd.
At "nixos-install" however, the user specified host key is not present
in initrd yet and validation fails.
fixes#91486
Otherwise, stage-2-init.sh will complain about not having access to
/dev/fd/62 as of systemd v246.
On IRC, flokli said:
15:14 <flokli> cole-h: hmmm... I could imagine some of the setup inside /dev has been moved into other parts of systemd
15:14 <flokli> And given we run systemd much later (outside initramfs only) it doesn't work properly here
15:17 <flokli> We probably don't invoke udev correctly
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.
For UEFI setups, "device" will generally be the special value "nodev"
which represents not running grub-install at all. Using "nodev" for
boot mirrors should therefore be allowed.
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.
