It seems that dnsdist doesn't actually request CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE, which is why normally it's executed and root and setuids to another, unprivileged, user. This means that as it is, dnsdist will be unable to bind to any port under 1024 and will fail with access denied.
Removing CAP_SETGID and CAP_SETUID is also related to this as we don't actually change the uid or gid after the fact as we use DynamicUser. (That part isn't strictly NEEDED but there's no reason to have those capabilities if we don't use them).
There are also some additional sandboxing we can remove from the service definition as they are assumed true or strict by DynamicUser: specifically PrivateTmp and ProtectSystem respectively.
ProtectHome is still there, despite being assumed read-only as setting it to true means they are seen as empty. I don't think it really matters as I don't know if systemd will ignore it or not, but I didn't see any reason to go hunting for excuses to make it a bigger change.
- spawn the geoclue-agent directly instead of running it via bash
- document why we cannot use DynamicUser = true
- have systemd create the home directory instead of using an explicit
tmpfiles.d fragment
* lm_sensors: add fancontrol module + nixos test
fancontrol is a small script that checks temperature sensors and adapts
fan speeds accordingly. It reads a text config file that can be
auto-generated by running the pwmconfig wizard on the live system.
Default behavior is to continue executing the script even when one or
multiple steps fail. We want to abort early if any part of the
initialization fails to not run with a partially initialized state.
Default behavior also allows dereferencing non-existent variables,
potentially resulting in hard-to-find bugs.
This option was removed because allowing (multiple) regular users to
override host entries affecting the whole system opens up a huge attack
vector. There seem to be very rare cases where this might be useful.
Consider setting system-wide host entries using networking.hosts,
provide them via the DNS server in your network, or use
networking.networkmanager.appendNameservers to point your system to
another (local) nameserver to set those entries.
This reverts commit 60aedadc59.
Using tests from #71212 I am now unable to reproduce there being issues
with starting the default metacity flashback session without this.
On start, unicorn, sidekiq and other parts running ruby code emits
quite a few warnings similar to
/var/gitlab/state/config/application.rb:202: warning: already initialized constant Gitlab::Application::LOOSE_EE_APP_ASSETS
/nix/store/ysb0lgbzxp7a9y4yl8d4f9wrrzy9kafc-gitlab-ee-12.3.5/share/gitlab/config/application.rb:202: warning: previous definition of LOOSE_EE_APP_ASSETS was here
/var/gitlab/state/lib/gitlab.rb:38: warning: already initialized constant Gitlab::COM_URL
/nix/store/ysb0lgbzxp7a9y4yl8d4f9wrrzy9kafc-gitlab-ee-12.3.5/share/gitlab/lib/gitlab.rb:38: warning: previous definition of COM_URL was here
This seems to be caused by the same ruby files being evaluated
multiple times due to the paths being different - sometimes they're
loaded using the direct path and sometimes through a symlink, due to
our split between config and package data. To fix this, we make sure
that the offending files in the state directory always reference the
store path, regardless of that being the real file or a symlink.
We create a wrapper which launches gnome-shell with the correct environment and
cap_sys_nice.
We can then override gnome-shell-wayland.service to use this wrapper.
NOTE: We need to force clear the environment, because the defaults aren't good
for user services. That should probably be fixed.
Otherwise connecting simply fails:
VPN connection: failed to connect: 'La création du fichier « /tmp/lib/NetworkManager-fortisslvpn/0507e3ef-f0e0-4153-af64-b3d9a025877c.config.XSB19Z » a échoué : No such file or directory'
This reverts commit 2ee14c34ed.
This caused the initializers directory to be cleaned out while gitlab
was running in some instances. We clean out the directory on the
preStart stage already, so ensuring existance and permissions should
suffice.
This fixes an issue with a recent addition of a config file
check in c28ded36ef.
Previously it was possible to supply a path as a string
to `configFile`. Now it will fail checking the config file
during evaluation of the module due to sandboxing.
A toggle to disable the check, more informative log messages
and handling for various configFile values are added.
This session would fail to start because we didn't have it in systemd.packages
(as we've switched to systemd gnome-session).
Haven't tested custom sessions.
Bumps `matrix-synapse` to version 1.4.0[1]. With this version the
following changes in the matrix-synapse module were needed:
* Removed `trusted_third_party_id_servers`: option is marked as deprecated
and ignored by matrix-synapse[2].
* Added `account_threepid_delegates` options as replacement for 3rdparty
server features[3].
* Added `redaction_retention_period` option to configure how long
redacted options should be kept in the database.
* Added `ma27` as maintainer for `matrix-synapse`.

This fixes a regression from bb649d96b0.
There were permission problems, when the preStart script tried to copy
the smokeping.fcgi file over the old file.
When having backup jobs that persist to a removable device like an
external HDD, the directory shouldn't be created by an activation script
as this might confuse auto-mounting tools such as udiskie(8).
In this case the job will simply fail, with the former approach
udiskie ran into some issues as the path `/run/media/ma27/backup` was
already there and owned by root.
This option was added by mistake since `listenAddress` exists by default
for each prometheus-exporter. Using
`services.prometheus.exporters.wireguard.addr` will now cause a warning,
but doesn't break eval.
Having `display-manager` conflict with `plymouth-quit` causes this lock up:
- `plymouth-quit-wait` starts up, waiting for plymouth-quit to run
- `lightdm` starts up
- `plymouth-quit` can't start, it conflicts with lightdm
- `plymouth-quit-wait` keeps waiting on plymouth-quit to kill plymouthd
The idea is having LightDM control when plymouth quits, but communication with
plymouth was broken: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/71064
Unfortunately having the conflict breaks switching to configurations with
plymouth enabled. So we still need to remove the conflict.

In fact, don't create them at all because Nix does that automatically.
Also remove modules/programs/shell.nix because everything it did is
now done automatically by Nix.
gitlab:db:configure prints the root user's password to stdout on
successful setup, which means it will be logged to the
journal. Silence this informational output. Errors are printed to
stderr and will thus still be let through.
The mime type definitions included with nginx are very incomplete, so
we use a list of mime types from the mailcap package, which is also
used by most other Linux distributions by default.
xfce4-volumed-pulse is not abandoned, but is superseded by a panel
plugin which is not available when not using the desktop.
Fixes: volume up/down keys support
These improvements come from shopping around
at what other downstreams have done with their
systemd units and recent changes like [0] to gdm.
Note there's no requries or after on dbus.socket because
settings BusName will set this up automaticallly and
give it a type of dbus.

The initializers directory is populated with files from the gitlab
distribution on start, but old files will be left in the state folder
even if they're removed from the distribution, which can lead to
startup failures. Fix this by always purging the directory on start
before populating it.
Since the preStart script is no longer running in privileged mode, we
reassign the files in the state directory and its config subdirectory
to the user we're running as. This is done by splitting the preStart
script into a privileged and an unprivileged part where the privileged
part does the reassignment.
Also, delete the database.yml symlink if it exists, since we want to
create a real file in its place.
Fixes#68696.
This introduces an option wifi.backend to the networkmanager module.
