For the hardened profile enable flushing whenever the hypervisor enters the
guest, but otherwise leave at kernel default (conditional flushing as of
writing).
Introduces the option security.protectKernelImage that is intended to control
various mitigations to protect the integrity of the running kernel
image (i.e., prevent replacing it without rebooting).
This makes sense as a dedicated module as it is otherwise somewhat difficult
to override for hardened profile users who want e.g., hibernation to work.
ZFS's popularity is growing, and not including it by default is a
bit frustrating. On top of that, the base iso includes ZFS
_anyway_ due to other packages depending upon it.
I think we're in the clear to do this on the basis that Oracle
probably doesn't care, it is probably fine (the SFLC agrees) and
we're a small fish. If a copyright holder asks us to, we can
definitely revert it again.
This reverts commit 33d07c7ea9.
The nixos-manual service already uses w3m-nographics for a variant that
drops unnecessary junk like various image libraries.
iso_minimal closure (i.e. uncompressed) goes from 1884M -> 1837M.
A module for security options that are too small to warrant their own module.
The impetus for adding this module is to make it more convenient to override
the behavior of the hardened profile wrt user namespaces.
Without a dedicated option for user namespaces, the user needs to
1) know which sysctl knob controls userns
2) know how large a value the sysctl knob needs to allow e.g.,
Nix sandbox builds to work
In the future, other mitigations currently enabled by the hardened profile may
be promoted to options in this module.

If services.nixosManual.showManual is enabled and
documentation.nixos.enable is not, there is no
config.system.build.manual available, so evaluation fails. For example
this is the case for the installer tests.
There is however an assertion which should catch exactly this, but it
isn't thrown because the usage of config.system.build.manual is
evaluated earlier than the assertions.
So I split the assertion off into a separate mkIf to make sure it is
shown appropriately and also fixed the installation-device profile to
enable documentation.nixos.

Without this the graphical installer has no way to open the manual.
You can fix it yourself by installing any HTML browser but this might
be unfamiliar to users new to NixOS and without any other way to open
the manual. The downside is it will also increase download sizes.
Fixes#46537
Following up https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/23665
Bootable USB-drives are not limited to ISO-images, there can be "normal" MBR/GPT-partitioned disk connected via USB-rack.
Also, "uas" implies "usb-storage", so there is no need to mention both.
I broke it:
in job ‘nixos.iso_graphical.x86_64-linux’:
The option `services.udisks2.enable' has conflicting definitions, in `/nix/store/bwcjw1ddj94q83vbbnq1nnrs5aisaw59-source/nixos/modules/profiles/installation-device.nix' and `/nix/store/bwcjw1ddj94q83vbbnq1nnrs5aisaw59-source/nixos/modules/services/x11/desktop-managers/plasma5.nix'.
Among other things, this will allow *2nix tools to output plain data
while still being composable with the traditional
callPackage/.override interfaces.
* the keyboard modules in all-hardware.nix are already defaults of
boot.initrd.availableKernelModules
* ide modules, hid_lenovo_tpkbd and scsi_wait_scan have been removed
because they're not available anymore
* i8042 was a duplicate (see few lines abowe)
Add another option for debugging instead. Lots of users have been
complaining about this default behaviour.
This patch also cleans up the EFI bootloader entries in the ISO.
This includes fuse-common (fusePackages.fuse_3.common) as recommended by
upstream. But while fuse(2) and fuse3 would normally depend on
fuse-common we can't do that in nixpkgs while fuse-common is just
another output from the fuse3 multiple-output derivation (i.e. this
would result in a circular dependency). To avoid building fuse3 twice I
decided it would be best to copy the shared files (i.e. the ones
provided by fuse(2) and fuse3) from fuse-common to fuse (version 2) and
avoid collision warnings by defining priorities. Now it should be
possible to install an arbitrary combination of "fuse", "fuse3", and
"fuse-common" without getting any collision warnings. The end result
should be the same and all changes should be backwards compatible
(assuming that mount.fuse from fuse3 is backwards compatible as stated
by upstream [0] - if not this might break some /etc/fstab definitions
but that should be very unlikely).
My tests with sshfs (version 2 and 3) didn't show any problems.
See #28409 for some additional information.
