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.
