This allows `apply` functions to return a valid value if they completely
ignore their argument, which is the case for the option renaming
functions like `mkAliasOptionModule`. Therefore this solves issue #63693
`sourceByRegex src regexes` should include a source file if one of the
regular expressions `regexes` matches the path of that file relative
to `src`.
However to compute this relative path `sourceByRegex` uses:
```
relPath = lib.removePrefix (toString src + "/") (toString path);
```
Note that `toString path` evaluates to an absolute file somewhere
under `src` and not under `/nix/store`.
The problem is that this doesn't work if `src` is a `cleanSourceWith`
invocation as well because `toString src` will then evaluate to
`src.outPath` which will evaluate to `builtins.filterSource ...` which
evaluates to a path in `/nix/store` which is not a prefix of `path`.
The solution is to replace `src` with `origSrc` where
```
origSrc = if isFiltered then src.origSrc else src;
isFiltered = src ? _isLibCleanSourceWith;
```
Test this by executing the following from the nixpkgs repo:
```
(cat << 'EOI'
let
pkgs = import ./. {};
in pkgs.runCommand "test-sourceByRegex" {
test_sourceByRegex =
let
src1 = pkgs.lib.sourceByRegex ./. [ "^test-sourceByRegex.nix$" ];
src2 = pkgs.lib.sourceByRegex src1 [ "^test-sourceByRegex.nix$" ];
in src2 + "/test-sourceByRegex.nix";
} ''
cp $test_sourceByRegex $out
''
EOI
) > test-sourceByRegex.nix
nix-build test-sourceByRegex.nix
```
The main purpose is to bring attention to `flip map`, which improves
code readablity. It is useful when ad-hoc anonymous function
grows two or more lines in `map` application:
```
map (lcfg:
let port = lcfg.port;
portStr = if port != defaultPort then ":${toString port}" else "";
scheme = if cfg.enableSSL then "https" else "http";
in "${scheme}://cfg.hostName${portStr}"
) (getListen cfg);
```
Compare this to `foreach`-style:
```
foreach (getListen cfg) (lcfg:
let port = lcfg.port;
portStr = if port != defaultPort then ":${toString port}" else "";
scheme = if cfg.enableSSL then "https" else "http";
in "${scheme}://cfg.hostName${portStr}"
);
```
This is similar to Haskell's `for` (http://hackage.haskell.org/package/base-4.12.0.0/docs/Data-Traversable.html#v:for)
This reverts commit ce2f74df2c.
Doubles are treated as -darwin here, to provide some consistency.
There is some ambiguity between “x86_64-darwin” and “i686-darwin”
which could refer to binaries linked between iOS simulator or real
macOS binaries. useiOSPrebuilt can be used to determine which to use,
however.
The error can be reproduced like:
```
$ nix-instantiate ./nixos -A system --arg configuration '
{ fileSystems."/".device = "nodev";
boot.loader.grub.devices = [ "nodev" ];
containers.t.config.imports = [ <nixpkgs/nixos/modules/virtualisation/amazon-image.nix> ];
}'
```
Previously error was:
```
error: The unique option `containers.t.networking.hostName' is defined multiple times, in `/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/channels/nixpkgs/nixos/modules/virtualisation/amazon-image.nix' and `module at /home/danbst/dev/nixpkgs/nixos/modules/virtualisation/containers.nix:470'.
(use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)
```
Now it is:
```
error: The unique option `containers.t.networking.hostName' is defined multiple times, in:
- /nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/channels/nixpkgs/nixos/modules/virtualisation/amazon-image.nix
- module at /home/danbst/dev/nixpkgs/nixos/modules/virtualisation/containers.nix:470.

This makes things a little bit more convenient. Just pass in like:
$ nix-build ’<nixpkgs>’ -A hello --argstr localSystem x86_64-linux --argstr crossSystem aarch64-linux
Adds pkgsCross.wasm32 and pkgsCross.wasm64. Use it to build Nixpkgs
with a WebAssembly toolchain.
stdenv/cross: use static overlay on isWasm
isWasm doesn’t make sense dynamically linked.
It is useful to make these dynamic and not bake them into gcc. This
means we don’t have to rebuild gcc to change these values. Instead, we
will pass cflags to gcc based on platform values. This was already
done hackily for android gcc (which is multi-target), but not for our
own gccs which are single target.
To accomplish this, we need to add a few things:
- add ‘arch’ to cpu
- add NIX_CFLAGS_COMPILE_BEFORE flag (goes before args)
- set -march everywhere
- set mcpu, mfpu, mmode, and mtune based on targetPlatform.gcc flags
cc-wrapper: only set -march when it is in the cpu type
Some architectures don’t have a good mapping of -march. For instance
POWER architecture doesn’t support the -march flag at all!
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/RS_002f6000-and-PowerPC-Options.html#RS_002f6000-and-PowerPC-Options
This makes us less reliant on the systems/examples.nix. You should be
able to cross compile with just your triple:
$ nix build --arg crossSystem '{ config = "armv6l-unknown-linux-gnueabi"; }' stdenv
ppc64le and ppc64 are different targets in the configure script. We
can’t use the same one.
TODO: canonicalize similar ones based on qemu’s configure script.
New android ndk (18) now uses clang. We were going through the wrapper
that are provided. This lead to surprising errors when building.
Ideally we could use the llvm linker as well, but this leads to errors
as many packages don’t support the llvm linker.
The explicit remove helped to uncover some hidden uses of `optionSet`
in NixOps. However it makes life harder for end-users of NixOps - it will
be impossible to deploy 19.03 systems with old NixOps, but there is no
new release of NixOps with `optionSet` fixes.
Also, "deprecation" process isn't well defined. Even that `optionSet` was
declared "deprecated" for many years, it was never announced. Hence, I
leave "deprecation" announce. Then, 3 releases after announce,
we can announce removal of this feature.
This type has to be removed, not `throw`-ed in runtime, because it makes
some perfectly fine code to fail. For example:
```
$ nix-instantiate --eval -E '(import <nixpkgs/lib>).types' --strict
trace: `types.list` is deprecated; use `types.listOf` instead
error: types.optionSet is deprecated; use types.submodule instead
(use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)
```
Comments on conflicts:
- llvm: d6f401e1 vs. 469ecc70 - docs for 6 and 7 say the default is
to build all targets, so we should be fine
- some pypi hashes: they were equivalent, just base16 vs. base32
This should make the composability of kernel configurations more straigthforward.
- now distinguish freeform options from tristate ones
- will look for a structured config in kernelPatches too
one can now access the structuredConfig from a kernel via linux_test.configfile.structuredConfig
in order to reinject it into another kernel, no need to rewrite the config from scratch
The following merge strategies are used in case of conflict:
-- freeform items must be equal or they conflict (mergeEqualOption)
-- for tristate (y/m/n) entries, I use the mergeAnswer strategy which takes the best available value, "best" being defined by the user (by default "y" > "m" > "n", e.g. if one entry is both marked "y" and "n", "y" wins)
-- if one item is both marked optional/mandatory, mandatory wins (mergeFalseByDefault)
This commit changes the `mkAliasOptionModule` function to make sure that
the priority for the aliased option is propagated to the non-aliased
option.
This also affects the `mkRenamedOptionModule` function in a similar
fashion.
This also removes the `mkAliasOptionModuleWithPriority` function, since
its functionality is now subsumed by `mkAliasOptionModule`.
This change was recommended by @nbp:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/53397#discussion_r245487432
Fake hashes can be used as placeholders for all the places, where
Nix expression requires a hash, but we don't yet have one.
This should be more convenient than following:
- echo|sha256sum, copy into clipboard, go to editor, paste into previously
edited place
- search nixpkgs for a random package, copy it's hash to cliboard, go to
editor, paste into previously edited place
Nix can add support for these fake hashes. In that case printed error should contain
only 1 hash, so no more problem "which of two hashes from error should I use?"
Idea by irc:Synthetica
* add generic x86_32 support
- Add support for i386-i586.
- Add `isx86_32` predicate that can replace most uses of `isi686`.
- `isi686` is reinterpreted to mean "exactly i686 arch, and not say i585 or i386".
- This branch was used to build working i586 kernel running on i586 hardware.
* revert `isi[345]86`, remove dead code
- Remove changes to dead code in `doubles.nix` and `for-meta.nix`.
- Remove `isi[345]86` predicates since other cpu families don't have specific model predicates.
* remove i386-linux since linux not supported on that cpu
This commit adds a function `mkAliasOptionModuleWithPriority`. This
function will make an alias to an existing option and copy over the
priority.
This functionality is needed for PRs like #53041. In that case
`nixos-generate-config` added an option to `hardware-configuration.nix`
with `mkDefault`. That option was then changed and an alias created for
the old name.
The end user should be able to set the non-alias option in their
`configuration.nix` and have everything work correctly. Without this
function, the priority for the option won't be copied over correctly
and the end-user will get a message saying they have the same option
set to two different values.

Suppose I have a Gemfile like this:
source "https://rubygems.org"
gem "actioncable"
gem "websocket-driver", group: :test
The gemset.nix generated by Bundix 2.4.1 will set ActionCable's groups
to [ "default" ], and websocket-driver's to [ "test" ]. This means that
the generated bundlerEnv wouldn't include websocket-driver unless the
test group was included, even though it's required by the default group.
This is arguably a bug in Bundix (websocket-driver's groups should
probably be [ "default" "test" ] or just [ "default" ]), but there's no
reason bundlerEnv should omit dependencies even given such an input --
it won't necessarily come from Bundix, and it would be good for
bundlerEnv to do the right thing.
To fix this, filterGemset is now a recursive function, that adds
dependencies of gems in the group to the filtered gemset until it
stabilises on the gems that match the required groups, and all of their
recursive dependencies.
eabihf is an abi that can be used with ARM architectures that support
the “hard float”. It should probably only be used with ARM32 when you
are absolutely sure your binaries will run on ARM systems with a FPU.
Also, add an example "armhf-embedded" to match the preexisting
arm-embedded system. qmk_firmware needs hard float in a few places, so
add them here to get that to work.
Fixes#51184
You can use stdenv.hostPlatform.emulator to get an executable that
runs cross-built binaries. This could be any emulator. For instance,
we use QEMU to emulate Linux targets and Wine to emulate Windows
targets. To work with qemu, we need to support custom targets.
I’ve reworked the cross tests in pkgs/test/cross to use this
functionality.
Also, I’ve used talloc to cross-execute with the emulator. There
appears to be a cross-execute for all waf builds. In the future, it
would be nice to set this for all waf builds.
Adds stdenv.hostPlatform.qemuArch attrbute to get the qemuArch for
each platform.

- respect libc’s incdir and libdir
- make non-unix systems single threaded
- set LIMITS_H_TEST to false for avr
- misc updates to support new libc’s
- use multilib with avr
For threads we want to use:
- posix on unix systems
- win32 on windows
- single on everything else
For avr:
- add library directories for avrlibc
- to disable relro and bind
- avr5 should have precedence over avr3 - otherwise gcc uses the wrong one
Documents functions in `lib.options` for docs generation with nixdoc.
The formatting change in the `mkOption` arguments is due to the way
`nixdoc` parses documentation comments on pattern arguments. It's not
ideal, but it works.
Documents functions in `lib.debug` for docs generation with nixdoc.
Note that type signatures and clearer descriptions are still missing
on some of these functions, but this is good enough for a first run.
Updates documentation comments with extra information for nixdoc[1]
compatibility.
Some documentation strings have additionally been reworded for
clarity.
"Faux types" are added where applicable, but some functions do things
that are not trivially representable in the type notation used so they
were ignored for this purpose.

This reverts commit 10addad603, reversing
changes made to 7786575c6c.
NixOS scripts should be kept in the NixOS source tree, not in
pkgs. Moving them around is just confusing and creates unnecessary
code/history churn.
The previous description "string" is misleading in the full options
manual pages; they are actually concatenated strings, with a specific
character.
The empty string version ("types.string") has been special-cased to
provide a better message.
The `overrideScope` bound by `makeScope` (via special `callPackage`)
took an override in the form `super: self { … }`. But this is
dangerously close to the `self: super { … }` form used by *everything*
else, even other definitions of `overrideScope`! Since that
implementation did not even share any code either until I changed it
recently in 3cf43547f4, this inconsistency
is almost certainly an oversight and not intentional.
Unfortunately, just as the inconstency is hard to debug if one just
assumes the conventional order, any sudden fix would break existing
overrides in the same hard-to-debug way. So instead of changing the
definition a new `overrideScope'` with the conventional order is added,
and old `overrideScope` deprecated with a warning saying to use
`overrideScope'` instead. That will hopefully get people to stop using
`overrideScope`, freeing our hand to change or remove it in the future.
This packags the Intel Math Kernel library on x86-64 platforms, which is a
dependency for many data science and machine learning packages.
Upstream, Intel provides proprietary binary RPMs with a permissive
redistribution license. These have been repackaged in both Debian and Anaconda,
so we are not the first distribution to redistribute.
The original build broke with the following linker issue:
```
CXXLD _PythonMagick.la
/nix/store/h0lbngpv6ln56hjj59i6l77vxq25flbz-binutils-2.30/bin/ld: cannot find -l-L/nix/store/4gh6ynzsd5ndx37hmkl62xa8z30k43y1-imagemagick-6.9.9-34/lib
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
```
This happens since `BOOST_PYTHON_LIB` wasn't set properly, however
`_PythonMagick.la` was linked with `-l$(BOOST_PYTHON_LIB)
$(MAGICK_LIBS)`. With an empty `BOOST_PYTHON_LIB` the linker got
confused.
To work around this, the `boost` library directory needs to be specified
explicitly. To ensure that the changes take effect, the original
`configure` script shipped with `$src` needs to be removed and recreated
using the `autoreconfHook`.
Additionally the `imagemagick` license (https://spdx.org/licenses/ImageMagick.html)
needs to be added to `lib/licenses.nix` to document the proper license
of `pythonmagick` in the meta section.
This has been not touched in 6 years. Let's remove it to cause less
problems when adding new cross-compiling infrastructure.
This also simplify gcc significantly.
- moved function into strings.nix
- renamed function from makePerl5Lib
- removed duplicates entries in the resulting value
- rewrote the function from scratch after learning a few things (much cleaner now)
Another attempt after my sloppy 48ccdf322d.
@Infinisil, thanks again, reverted in 4794aa5de2 and explained my mistakes in 48ccdf322d (commitcomment-29678643). I start with their work and provide this proof of this commit's correctness:
```nix
(lib.fixedPoints.extends (lib.flip g) f) # now
((f: rattrs: self: let super = rattrs self; in super // f self super) (lib.flip g) f) # inline extends
(self: let super = f self; in super // (lib.flip g) self super) # beta reduce
(self: let super = f self; in super // g super self) # beta reduce
(self_: let super = f self_; in super // g super self_) # alpha rename
(self_: let super = f self_; in super // g super self_) # original, same
```
Eventually we might harmonize `overrideScope`'s `g` parameter with the general pattern, but I leave that breaking change as a separate step. Best not to refactor and break at once, and at least the abstractions make the oddity clearer.
$ nix repl lib
Welcome to Nix version 2.0.2. Type :? for help.
Loading 'lib'...
Added 350 variables.
-- this is the exact example from the function's documentation:
nix-repl> recursiveUpdateUntil (path: l: r: path == ["foo"]) {
# first attribute set
foo.bar = 1;
foo.baz = 2;
bar = 3;
} {
#second attribute set
foo.bar = 1;
foo.quz = 2;
baz = 4;
}
{ bar = 3; baz = 4; foo = { bar = 1; baz = 2; quz = 2; }; }
-- although the documentation says:
{
foo.bar = 1; # 'foo.*' from the second set
foo.quz = 2; #
bar = 3; # 'bar' from the first set
baz = 4; # 'baz' from the second set
}
binutils expects x86_64-unknown-netbsd<version> (only 3 parts!). Any other combo seems to fail.
Also handle darwin versions similarly.

* The ELK stack is upgraded to 6.3.2.
* `elasticsearch6`, `logstash6` and `kibana6` now come with X-Pack which is
a suite of additional features. These are however licensed under the unfree
"Elastic License".
* Fortunately they also provide OSS versions which are now packaged
under: `elasticsearch6-oss`, `logstash6-oss` and `kibana6-oss`.
Note that the naming of the attributes is consistent with upstream.
* The test `nix-build nixos/tests/elk.nix -A ELK-6` will test the OSS
version by default. You can also run the test on the unfree ELK using:
`NIXPKGS_ALLOW_UNFREE=1 nix-build nixos/tests/elk.nix -A ELK-6 --arg enableUnfree true`
Nix now supports floats & we can pretty easily map them to Plist’s
<real></real> type. Note that I am unsure how this affects older
version of Nix that may or may not have builtins.isFloat available.
Make sure this satisfies minver.nix’s "1.11" requirement.
Instead of using a string to describe kernel config, use a nix
attribute set, then converted to a string.
- allows to override the config, aka convert 'yes' into 'modules' or
vice-versa
- while for now merging different configs is still crude (last spec wins),
at least there should be only one CONFIG_XYZ value compared to the current string
config where the first defined would be used and others ignored.
[initial idea by copumpkin in 2016, a major rebase to 2018 by teto]
It wasn’t exactly clear which NDK you were using previously. This adds
an attribute to system that handles what version of the NDK we should
use when building things.
/cc @Ericson2314
Before this change `mkRenamedOptionModule` would override option defaults
even when the old option name is left unused. For instance
```nix
{
optios = {
services.name.new = mkOption {
default = { one = {}; };
};
};
imports = [
(mkRenamedOptionModule [ "services" "name" "old" ] [ "services" "name" "new" "two" ])
];
config = {};
}
```
would evaluate to
`{ config.services.name.new = { two = {}; }; }`
when you'd expect it to evaluate to
`{ config.services.name.new = { one = {}; }; }`.
In particular, now the mainline kernel can be built on the RPi 1 as well
(so kernelBaseConfig should always be a mainline defconfig from now on).
And RPi 2 users can now use linux_rpi without doing the
`nixpkgs.config.platform = lib.systems.platforms.raspberrypi2;` dance.
toPath has confusing semantics and is never necessary; it can always
either just be omitted or replaced by pre-concatenating `/.`. It has
been marked as "!!! obsolete?" for more than 10 years in a C++
comment, hopefully removing it will let us properly deprecate and,
eventually, remove it.
There are two different official variations which differ in their float
support, so such a blanket statement is invalid.
`lib.systems.platforms.*android` already handles each case correctly.
Correcting an error in 827ef09140.
ARM ABIs now have a float field. This is used as a fallback to lessen
our use of `platform.gcc.float`. I didn't know what the MIPs convention
is so I kept using `platform.gcc.float` in that case.
Assigning a list of 10 or more elements to an option having the type
`loaOf a` produces a configuration value that is not honoring the
order of the original list. This commit fixes this and a related issue
arising when 10 or more lists are merged into this type of option.
Without this change
(coercedTo str toInt int).check "foo"
would evaluate to true, even though
(coercedTo str toInt int).merge {} [{ value = "foo"; }]
will throw an error because "foo" can't be coerced to an int.
The commented-out configs are @shlevy's old known-good ones. I changed
them as needed to play nice with lib.systems.parse but did not test so
leaving them as comments for now.
As suggested in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/39416#discussion_r183845745
the versioning attributes in `lib` should be consistent to
`nixos/version` which implicates the following changes:
* `lib.trivial.version` -> `lib.trivial.release`
* `lib.trivial.suffix` -> `lib.trivial.versionSuffix`
* `lib.nixpkgsVersion` -> `lib.version`
As `lib.nixpkgsVersion` is referenced several times in `NixOS/nixpkgs`,
`NixOS/nix` and probably several user's setups. As the rename will cause
a notable impact it's better to keep `lib.nixpkgsVersion` as alias with
a warning yielded by `builtins.trace`.
The function isn’t used anywhere and `addErrorContext` is an undocumented
builtin.
The builtin is explicitely qualified at its two uses in the module system.
`attrNamesToStr` is very specific (and pretty trivial), so it doesn’t make sense
to have it in the library.
`traceXMLVal(Marked)` are just a builtin and `trace` and not very useful in
general (trace output should not be parsed anyway).
Following legacy packing conventions, `isArm` was defined just for
32-bit ARM instruction set. This is confusing to non packagers though,
because Aarch64 is an ARM instruction set.
The official ARM overview for ARMv8[1] is surprisingly not confusing,
given the overall state of affairs for ARM naming conventions, and
offers us a solution. It divides the nomenclature into three levels:
```
ISA: ARMv8 {-A, -R, -M}
/ \
Mode: Aarch32 Aarch64
| / \
Encoding: A64 A32 T32
```
At the top is the overall v8 instruction set archicture. Second are the
two modes, defined by bitwidth but differing in other semantics too, and
buttom are the encodings, (hopefully?) isomorphic if they encode the
same mode.
The 32 bit encodings are mostly backwards compatible with previous
non-Thumb and Thumb encodings, and if so we can pun the mode names to
instead mean "sets of compatable or isomorphic encodings", and then
voilà we have nice names for 32-bit and 64-bit arm instruction sets
which do not use the word ARM so as to not confused either laymen or
experienced ARM packages.

This allows the lib fixed point to be extended with
myLib = lib.extend (self: super: {
foo = "foo";
})
With this it's possible to have the new modified lib attrset available to all
modules when using evalModules
myLib.evalModules {
modules = [ ({ lib, ... }: {
options.bar = lib.mkOption {
default = lib.foo;
};
}) ];
}
=> { config = { bar = "foo"; ... }; options = ...; }
- `localSystem` is added, it strictly supercedes system
- `crossSystem`'s description mentions `localSystem` (and vice versa).
- No more weird special casing I don't even understand
TEMP
So far, `mkValueString` defaulted to `toString`,
which is a bad match for most configuration file formats,
especially because how booleans are formatted.
This also improves error messages for unsupported types.
Add a test to codify the formatting.
The isSeccomputable flag treated Linux without seccomp as just a
normal variant, when it really should be treated as a special case
incurring complexity debt to support.
The isKexecable flag treated Linux without kexec as just a normal
variant, when it really should be treated as a special case incurring
complexity debt to support.
Uses the HTTPS url for cases where the existing URL has a permanent
redirect. For each domain, at least one fixed derivation URL was
downloaded to test the domain is properly serving downloads.
Also fixes jbake source URL, which was broken.
Otherwise obscure cross-compilations are hampered. `all` breaks all but
the initial derivation (which we can't even write yet) in an open world
setting however, so we really shouldn't have it.
I noticed LLVM accepts `ios` as its own OS in platform triples; a
recent change as far as I know. I see it also accepts `macos*` for macOS
(formerly OS X). If it's now customary to distinguish iOS like so
(rather than guessing from the aarch, lets add both so our OSes are
still disjoint, and make Darwin a family instead.
But changing the config everywhere would probably be a mass rebuild, and
I'm not sure how well other software supports OSes besides "darwin", so
I'm keeping that the default name for macOS for now.
First, we need check against the host platform, not the build platform.
That's simple enough.
Second, we move away from exahustive finite case analysis (i.e.
exhaustively listing all platforms the package builds on). That only
work in a closed-world setting, where we know all platforms we might
build one. But with cross compilation, we may be building for arbitrary
platforms, So we need fancier filters. This is the closed world to open
world change.
The solution is instead of having a list of systems (strings in the form
"foo-bar"), we have a list of of systems or "patterns", i.e. attributes
that partially match the output of the parsers in `lib.systems.parse`.
The "check meta" logic treats the systems strings as an exact whitelist
just as before, but treats the patterns as a fuzzy whitelist,
intersecting the actual `hostPlatform` with the pattern and then
checking for equality. (This is done using `matchAttrs`).
The default convenience lists for `meta.platforms` are now changed to be
lists of patterns (usually a single pattern) in
`lib/systems/for-meta.nix` for maximum flexibility under this new
system.
Fixes#30902
Negative reasoning like `allBut` is a bad idea with an open world of
platforms. Concretely, if we add a new, quite different sort of
platform, existing packages with `allBut` will claim they work on it
even though they probably won't.
Handle the case where options have funny symbols inside of them.
Example:
If I reference the following attribute without it being defined:
security.acme.certs."example.com".webroot
I now get the error:
The option `security.acme.certs."example.com".webroot' is used but
not defined.
where before I got:
The option `security.acme.certs.example.com.webroot' is used but
not defined.
which is not true.
Based on a request by @oxij:
“Can we also rename this file to `maintainers/maintainers-list.nix` while we at
this? Motivation: much saner `git log ./lib`.”
Corrected every handle that had no commits to nixpkgs, manually researched the
correct handles by looking at maintained packages & blames/history on Github.
Based on https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/34842, the
nix-instantiate output was pretty-printed and the validity of the github handles
manually verified, by automatically checking whether the user handles exist on
github (https://github.com/userhandle, status 200 or 404).
Each handle under 5 characters was manually checked (because the collision
probability with non-maintainer accounts is high), each missing entry was
manually researched.
The script used is kept in `maintainers/scripts` as an example of how to work
with the mainainers list through nix’ JSON interface.
All 5 daemon types can be enabled and configured through the module and the module both creates the ceph.conf required but also creates and enables specific services for each daemon, based on the systemd service files that upstream provides.
Existing "mips64el" should be "mipsel".
This is just the barest minimum so that nixpkgs can recognize them as
systems - although required for building individual derivations onto
MIPS boards, it is not sufficient if you want to actually build nixos on
those targets
Note this doesn't actually provide musl support yet,
just improves our "system" code to understand
musl-based triples and non-glibc linux configurations.
