`man 1 info` says:
The first non-option argument, if present, is the menu entry to
start from; it is searched for in all `dir' files along INFOPATH.
If it is not present, info merges all `dir' files and shows the
result. Any remaining arguments are treated as the names of menu
items relative to the initial node visited.
Which means that this does what previous programs/info did and #8519
(on-the-fly infodir generation for Emacs) wanted to do, but for both
programs.
Now it generates notifications for auto-detected devices as well as
for explicitly configured ones, sends well formed e-mails and supports
immediate `wall` and `xmessage` notifications.
Avoids this warning when running `nixos-rebuild switch`:

This improves error messages when a set or a list is used where a path
was expected. For an example, if you used a package set (as opposed to a
single package) in systemPackages before this commit, the error was:
```
cannot coerce a list to a string, at "/home/nixpkgs/lib/types.nix":103:37
```
Now, the error message reads:
```
The option value `environment.systemPackages' in `/etc/nixos/configuration.nix' is not a list of paths.
```
And set the default value to "Address @LOCAL". This change is needed to
find printers at my workplace (with "lpinfo -v" or the
"system-config-printer" GUI). Ubuntu 14.04 also has this as default.
snmp.conf does not seem to be needed in restartTriggers, because it is

it spawns on demand.

Commit 687caeb renamed services.virtualboxHost to programs.virtualbox,
but according to the discussion on the commit, it's probably a better to
put it into virtualisation.virtualbox instead.

Fixes#9110. Fontconfig recommends different precedence for rendering
settings and generic alias settings. To comply with the recommendations,
`98-nixos.conf` has been separated into `10-nixos-rendering.conf` and
`60-nixos-generic-alias.conf`.
This gets rid of
systemd[1]: Cannot add dependency job for unit avahi-daemon.service, ignoring: Unit avahi-daemon.service failed to load: No such file or directory.
This removes all references to .../sbin for the guest additions and also
installs all binaries to .../bin instead (so no more .../sbin).
The main motivation for doing this is commit 98cedb3 (which
unfortunately had to be reverted in a9f2e10) and pull request #9063,
where the latter is an initial effort to move mount.vboxsf to .../bin
instead of .../sbin.
The commit I made afterwards is finishing the removal of .../sbin
entirely.
In 14f09e0, I've introduced the module under modules/programs, because
the legacy virtualbox.nix was also under that path. But because we
already have modules/virtualisation/virtualbox-guest.nix, it really
makes sense to put this module alongside of it as well.
This module thus has no change in functionality and I've tested
evaluation against nixos/tests/virtualbox.nix and the manual.

Using $storepath/sbin is deprecated according to commit 98cedb3, so
let's avoid putting anything in .../sbin for the guest additions.
This is a continuation of the initial commit done by @ctheune at
1fb1360, which unfortunately broke VM tests and only changed the path of
the mount.vboxsf helper.
With this commit, the VM test is fixed and I've also verified on my
machine that it is indeed working again.

This option requests compatibility with older NixOS releases with
respect to stateful data, in cases where new releases have defaults
that might be incompatible with system state of existing NixOS
deployments. For instance, if we change the default version of
PostgreSQL, existing deployments will break if the new version can't
read databases created by the old version.
So for example, setting
system.stateVersion = "15.07";
requests that options like services.postgresql.package use defaults
corresponding to the 15.07 release branch. Note that
nixos-generate-config emits this option. (In the future, NixOps may
set system.stateVersion to the NixOS release in use when the machine
was created.)
See also #7939 for another motivating example.
The resulting image can be copied to a SD card with `dd` and is directly
bootable by a suitably configured U-Boot. Though depending on the board, some
extra steps are required for copying U-Boot itself to the SD card.
Inside the image is a partition table, with a FAT32 /boot and a normal
writable EXT4 rootfs. It's possible to directly reuse the SD image's
partition layout and "install" NixOS on the same SD card by replacing
the default configuration.nix and nixos-rebuild, and actually is the
preferred way to use these images. To assist in this installation
method, the boot scripts on the image automatically resize the rootfs
partition to fit the SD card on the first boot.
The SD images come in two flavors; one for the ARMv6 Raspberry Pi,
and one multiplatform image for all the boards supported by the
mainline kernel's multi_v7_defconfig config target. At the moment, these
have been tested on:
- Raspberry Pi Model B (512MB model)
- NVIDIA Jetson TK1
- Linksprite pcDuino3 Nano
To build, run:
nix-build '<nixpkgs/nixos>' -A config.system.build.sdImage \
-I nixos-config='<nixpkgs/nixos/modules/installer/cd-dvd/sd-image-armv7l-multiplatform.nix>'
When using extlinux-conf-builder in a nix build using chroots, the
following error message could be seen:
/nix/store/XXX-extlinux-conf-builder.sh: line 121: cd: /nix/var/nix/profiles: No such file or directory
To avoid this, just skip the code path parsing /nix/var/nix/profiles
when $numGenerations (passed from the command line) is 0 (which is the
only legal value of $numGenerations in a nix build context).
The rationale for disabling this is: 1) systemd timers are better; 2)
it gets rid of one usually unnecessary process, which makes containers
more light-weight.
Note that cron is still enabled if services.cron.systemCronJobs is
non-empty, so this only matters if you have no declarative cron jobs
but do have user cron jobs.
Without a menu title, U-Boot's distro scripts just autoboot the first
entry by default.
When I initially wrote this, my board wasn't apparently running stock
U-Boot but had some local hacks saved in the U-Boot's environment
which made it always display the prompt.
When calling addEntry inside a subshell, the filesCopied array would
be updated only in the subshell's environment. This would only cause an
issue if no -g flag was passed to the script, causing no kernels
to be copied.
This fixes a failing assert in systemd-timesyncd (issue #5913) as it
expects the directory /run/systemd/netif/links/ to exist, and nothing in
NixOS currently creates it.
Also we get a net reduction in our code as rules for /run/utmp and
/var/log/journal are also provided by the same upstream file.

Enables attaching AppArmor profiles at the user/group level.
This is not intended to be used directly, but as part of a

a more comprehensive solution is in place.
Xen required a few changes in order to be usable:
* Include xenfs module in initrd as loading it in the activation
script was failing.
* Include /etc/default/xendomains, which is needed by
xen-domains service.
* Create /var/log/xen and /var/lib/xen directories in
the xen-store service, which are needed by the xl command.
The directories could be created by any other script as long as
they are guaranteed to exist before xl is called.
* Fix a reference to /bin/ls in the xendomains script.
The systemd service was ignoring ExecStart because the path to the
paster executable was not absolute. Because ExecStart was ignored, the
service would not start.
In general, you don't want a .tar.gz file to be served with
"Content-Encoding: x-gzip", because this causes browsers (like Chrome
or "curl --compressed") to decompress the file on the fly. So you end
up with a .tar rather than .tar.gz file, which is unexpected.
If people want such encodings, they should set them in their own NixOS
configuration.
Some filesystems like fat32 don't support symlinking and need to be
supported on /boot as an efi system partition. Instead of creating the symlink directly in boot, create the symlink in
a temporary directory which has to support symlinking.
It seems that with the latest update to `udisks2`, the ExecStart path
for the daemon changed from `/lib/udisks2` to `/libexec/udisks2`. This
commit reflects that change for our purposes.
Changes:
- gettext is needed to build
- Switched to using non-legacy ffmpeg.
- Removed ffmpeg stuff from include path since it causes build errors related to
a time.h header.
- Removed unneeded patch.
- Adjusted NixOS service due to the binary being renamed.
Authentication methods are tried in order, so if another NixOS module
defines a specific ident mapping like
local hydra all ident map=hydra-users
it should appear before the generic

still want to re-use the iso-image.nix module.

This is needed by most window managers. Desktop environments
usually launch dbus-launch if a session hasn't been started yet
so this shouldn't hurt. The worst it can happen is that one

This solves the problem that modprobe does not know about $MODULE_DIR
when run via sudo, and instead wrongly tries to read /lib/modules/:
$ sudo strace -efile modprobe foo |& grep modules

Without this patch, one would have to use sudo -E (preserves environment
vars). But that option is reserved for sudo users with extra rights
(SETENV), so it's not a solution.
environment.sessionVariables are set by PAM, so they are included in the
environment used by sudo.
The socket definition is derived from upstream with the
exception that it does not depend on network.target, as
this creates a cycle between basic.target and sockets.target.
The apparmor profile has been updated to account for additional
runtime dependencies introduced by enabling systemd support.
We already have separate tests for checking whether the ISO boots
correctly, so it's not necessary to do that here. So now
tests/installer.nix just tests nixos-install, from a regular NixOS VM
that uses the host's Nix store. This makes running the tests more
convenient because we don't have to build a new ISO after every
change.
install-cd: Include nixos-artwork to fix installer tests
With the move from storing grub images in the nixpkgs repo to storing them in the nix store, we broke the installer tests as the iso does not contain the artwork needed for the grub splash. This commit fixes the inclusion of the artwork in the iso.

This solves the problem of e.g. mutt not finding mail unless the user
sets MAIL=/var/spool/mail/$USER.
The default MAIL variable seems come from bash. Reasons for adding
symlink instead of changing MAIL default in bash:
- No need to rebuild world
- FHS recommends /var/mail over /var/spool/mail anyway[1]. Better fix
NixOS mail location than change MAIL in bash to something that doesn't
work on non-NixOS (however unlikely that users run nixpkgs bash on a
non-NixOS distro...).

Better replace the double quotes in 'echo "${commands}"' with single

configuration build time.
The issue was that grub was not building the default entry which would

Currently the module hardcodes the systemd service user to "marathon".
With this change one would not need to create an extra systemd config to
override the user.
So why would one need to override the Marathon user? Some apps require
root access to run. You can't run those with Marathon unless you
override the default user to root. Marathon also provides a
`--mesos_user` command line flag which allows you to run apps using
arbitrary users. You need to run the framework as root to enable this
functionality.
JVMs exit with exit code 128+signal when receiving a (terminating)
signal. This means graceful termination of a JVM will result in 143, so
add that to `SuccessExitStatus` in systemd service unit.
- Usage of docker containerizer is currently hardcoded, this PR makes it
optional. Default is to enable it if docker is enabled.
- Make IP address to listen on part of service configuration.
The man page for ssh-keygen(1) has a section "MODULI GENERATION" that describes

| generateModuli()
| {

| ssh-keygen -T "moduli-$1" -f "moduli-$1.candidates"
| rm "moduli-$1.candidates"
| }
|
| for (( i=0 ; i <= 16 ; ++i )); do
| let bitSize="2048 + i * 128"
| generateModuli "$bitSize" &
| moduliFiles+=( "moduli-$bitSize" )
| done
| wait
|
| echo >moduli "# Time Type Tests Tries Size Generator Modulus"
| cat >>moduli "${moduliFiles[@]}"

x86) and with same boot menu functionality as GRUB has.

With systemd 219, this is fine because systemd will cause the new

This reverts commit d170c98d13.
niksnut argues that we need smaller system closures, not bigger.
So users facing the trouble of getting gcc rebuilds after nix-collect-garbage
for any minimal nixos configuration change should use other means of
not losing the stdenv output.
One way is to keep one somewhere: nix-build -A stdenv -o stdenv '<nixpkgs>'.
Another may be to use nix.conf options like gc-keep-outputs, gc-keep-derivations
or env-keep-derivations.
This will help a lot on ARM, where nix-collect-garbage erases gcc; then, any
change to a small system config file requires rebuilding gcc again.
I don't know why it does not happen on x86. Maybe it just pulls the gcc from
hydra, if garbage is collected.
It boots, but some things still don't work:
1) Installation of DTBs
2) Boot of initrd
Booting still needs a proper config.txt in /boot, which could probably be
managed by NixOS.
During the refactor of the networkd stuff in f8dbe5f, a lot of the
options are now needed by systemd.nix as well as networkd.nix but
weren't moved by that commit as well.
For now, this fixes all networkd VM tests except for the macvlan one and
thus it should fix#7505 for at least DHCP-based configuration.

In f8dbe5f, the default value for networking unit "enabled" option
suddenly flipped to false. I have no idea of whether this happened by
accident, but I'm setting it to true again, because it essentially
breaks systemd networking support and we have systemd.network.enable to
have a "turn the world off" switch.
And of course, because the mentioned commit obviously wasn't done with
even a run of the simplest run of one of the network VM tests, we now
get an evaluation error if we switch useNetworkd to true.

Passing the chroot flag to nixos-install without arguments should now give you a
Bash shell as intended rather than try an empty path.
This was masked by the user's shell (usually /bin/bash) being defaulted to by
chroot, and being found since their paths used NixOS conventions.
When bootstrapping from other distributions, nixos-install is unable to find
various tools in the chroot since their paths aren't aware of NixOS conventions.
This makes a small change to existing code by specifying nixpkgs/nixos instead
of just nixos when running nix-instantiate in the chroot. I haven't tested this
outside of bootstrapping, but the same specification is used elsewhere in the
code so I don't see why it wouldn't work.
These services don't create files on disk, let alone on a network
filesystem, so they don't really need a fixed uid. And this also gets
rid of a warning coming from <= 14.12 systems.
Otherwise, the enabled -> disabled transition won't be handled
correctly (switch-to-configuration currently assumes that if a unit is
running and exists, it should be restarted).
This avoids the following warning:
Apr 19 10:53:48 xen systemd[1]: [/nix/store/...-unit-ddclient.service/ddclient.service:19] Unknown lvalue 'type' in section 'Service'
As `Type=simple` is the default in systemd, the assignment to the
service type can be simply dropped.
Added support for managing Plex plugins via Nix. This is done via an
"extraPlugins" configuration option which takes a list of paths to
plugin bundles, which are then symlinked into Plex's plugin directory

This option causes the specified user to be automatically logged in at

While at it, refactor and make a helper function for building the getty

This partially reverts commit 3a4fd0bfc6.
Addresses another concern by @edolstra that users might not want to
update *all* channels. We're now reverting to the old behaviour but
after updating the "nixos" channel, we just check whether the channel
ships with a file called ".update-on-nixos-rebuild" and if it exists, we
update that channel as well.
Other channels than these are not touched anymore.
Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
My original reason to put it at the beginning of NIX_PATH was to allow
shipping a particular version <nixpkgs> with a channel. But in order to
do that, we can still let the channel expression ship with a custom
version of nixpkgs by something like <channel/nixpkgs> and the builder
of the channel could also rewrite self-references.
So the inconvenience is now shifted towards the maintainer of the
channel rather than the user (which isn't nice, but better err on the
side of the developer rather than on the user), because as @edolstra
pointed out: Having the channels of root at the beginning of NIX_PATH
could have unintended side-effects if there a channel called nixpkgs.
Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
Should make it even easier to use custom channels, because whenever the
user does a "nixos-rebuild --upgrade", it will also upgrade possibly
used ("used" as in referenced in configuration.nix) channels besides
"nixos". And if you also ship a channel tied to a particular version of
nixpkgs or even remove the "nixos" channels, you won't run into
unexpected situations where the system is not updating your custom
channels.
Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
This is very useful if you want to distribute channels (and thus
expressions as well) in a similar fashion to Debians APT sources (or
PPAs or whatnot).
So, for example if you have a channel with some additional functions
or packages, you simply add that channel with:
sudo nix-channel --add https://example.com/my-nifty-channel foo
And you can access that channel using <foo>, for example in your
configuration.nix:
{
imports = [ <foo/modules/shiny-little-module> ];
environment.systemPackages = with import <foo/pkgs> {}; [ bar blah ];

Within nixpkgs, we shouldn't have <nixos> used anywhere anymore, so we
shouldn't get into conflicts.

If a kernel without CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER set is used with NixOS, the file
/proc/sys/kernel/hotplug does not exist. Before writing to it to disable
this deprecated mechanism, we have to ensure it actually exists because
otherwise the activation script will fail.
This updates rdnssd to the following:
* Using the systemd interfaces directly
* Using the rdnssd user instead of the root user
* Integrating with resolvconf instead of writing directly to /etc/resolv.conf
This is essentially what's been done for the official NixOS build slaves
and I'm using it as well for a few of my machines and my own Hydra
slaves.
Here's the same implementation from the Delft server configurations:

Many bus clients get hopelessly confused when dbus-daemon is
restarted. So let's not do that.
Of course, this is not ideal either, because we end up stuck with a
possibly outdated dbus-daemon. But that issue will become irrelevant
in the glorious kdbus-based future.
Hopefully this also gets rid of systemd getting stuck after
dbus-daemon is restarted:
