This creates a dependency cycle when used with boot.tmpOnTmpfs:
basic.target <- tmp.mount <- swap.target <- zram-init-dev0 <- basic.target
This same fix is done already for tmp.mount
Fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/47474
- add `zramSwap.algorithm` option, which allows to change compressor
declaratively. zstd as default
- add `zramSwap.swapDevices` option, which allows to define how many zram
devices will be used as swap. Rest devices can be managed freely
- simpler floating calculations
- fix udev race condition
- some documentation changes
- replaced `/sys/block/zram*` handling with `zramctl`, because I had occasional
"Device is busy" error (looks like zram has to be configured in predefined order)
- added `memoryPercent` and `algorithm` as restart triggers. I think, it was
a bug that changing `memoryPercent` in configuration wasn't applied immediately.
- removed a bind to .swap device. While it looks natural (when swap device goes
off, so should zram device), it wasn't implemented properly. This caused problems
with swapon/swapoff:
```
$ cat /proc/swaps
Filename Type Size Used Priority
/dev/zram0 partition 8166024 0 -2
/var/swapfile file 5119996 5120 1
$ sudo swapoff -a
$ sudo swapon -a
swapon: /dev/zram0: read swap header failed
$ cat /proc/swaps
Filename Type Size Used Priority
/var/swapfile file 5119996 0 1
```
Although this can be added to `extraOptions` I figured that it makes
sense to add an option to explicitly promote this feature in our
documentation since most of the self-hosted gitea instances won't be
intended for common use I guess.
Also added a notice that this should be added after the initial deploy
as you have to register yourself using that feature unless the install
wizard is used.
See #49441 for an earlier attempt, which was subsequently reverted. I am
assuming that doubling the time will be sufficient if the machine is
overloaded since so many of the tests already pass at 5 minutes, while
still not holding back failures for needlessly long.
Since nix 2.0 the no-build-hook option was replaced by the builders options
that allows to override remote builders ad-hoc.
Since it is useful to disable remote builders updating nixos without network,
this commit reintroduces the option.
Nexus increased their default minimum disk space requirement to 4GB:
```
com.orientechnologies.orient.core.exception.OLowDiskSpaceException: Error occurred while executing a
write operation to database 'OSystem' due to limited free space on the disk (1823 MB). The database
is now working in read-only mode. Please close the database (or stop OrientDB), make room on your hard
drive and then reopen the database. The minimal required space is 4096 MB. Required space is now
set to 4096MB (you can change it by setting parameter storage.diskCache.diskFreeSpaceLimit) .
server# [ 72.560866] zqnav3mg7m6ixvdcacgj7p5ibijpibx5-unit-script-nexus-start[627]: DB name="OSystem"
```
Including the rest on the VM 8GB should be the most suitable solution.
As the installer test also takes 8GB of disk size this should still be
in an acceptable range.
