This is more robust than setting via environment variable, though it does come
later in the load sequence. An added benefit is affecting the current
session.
These options were being set to the same value as the defaults that are
hardcoded in nscd. Delete them so it's clear which settings are actually
important for NixOS.
One exception is `threads 1`, which is different from the built-in
default of 4. However, both values are equivalent because nscd forces
the number of threads to be at least as many as the number of kinds of
databases it supports, which is 5.
nscd doesn't create any files outside of /run/nscd unless the nscd.conf
"persistent" option is used, which we don't do by default. Therefore it
doesn't matter what UID/GID we run this service as, so long as it isn't
shared with any other running processes.
/run/nscd does need to be owned by the same UID that the service is
running as, but systemd takes care of that for us thanks to the
RuntimeDirectory directive.
If someone wants to turn on the "persistent" option, they need to
manually configure users.users.nscd and systemd.tmpfiles.rules so that
/var/db/nscd is owned by the same user that nscd runs as.
In an all-defaults boot.isContainer configuration of NixOS, this removes
the only user which did not have a pre-assigned UID.
Previously this module created both /var/db/nscd and /run/nscd using
shell commands in a preStart script. Note that both of these paths are
hard-coded in the nscd source. (Well, the latter is actually
/var/run/nscd but /var/run is a symlink to /run so it works out the
same.)
/var/db/nscd is only used if the nscd.conf "persistent" option is turned
on for one or more databases, which it is not in our default config
file. I'm not even sure persistent mode can work under systemd, since
`nscd --shutdown` is not synchronous so systemd will always
unceremoniously kill nscd without reliably giving it time to mark the
databases as unused. Nonetheless, if someone wants to use that option,
they can ensure the directory exists using systemd.tmpfiles.rules.
systemd can create /run/nscd for us with the RuntimeDirectory directive,
with the added benefit of causing systemd to delete the directory on
service stop or restart. The default value of RuntimeDirectoryMode is
755, the same as the mode which this module was using before.
I don't think the `rm -f /run/nscd/nscd.pid` was necessary after NixOS
switched to systemd and used its PIDFile directive, because systemd
deletes the specified file after the service stops, and because the file
can't persist across reboots since /run is a tmpfs. Even if the file
still exists when nscd starts, it's only a problem if the pid it
contains has been reused by another process, which is unlikely. Anyway,
this change makes that deletion even less necessary, because now systemd
deletes the entire /run/nscd directory when the service stops.
This postStart step was introduced on 2014-04-24 with the comment that
"Nscd forks into the background before it's ready to accept
connections."
However, that was fixed upstream almost two months earlier, on
2014-03-03, with the comment that "This, along with setting the nscd
service type to forking in its systemd configuration file, allows
systemd to be certain that the nscd service is ready and is accepting
connections."
The fix was released several months later in glibc 2.20, which was
merged in NixOS sometime before 15.09, so it certainly should be safe to
remove this workaround by now.
Add an option to set the rc-manager parameter in NetworkManager.conf,
which controls how NetworkManager handles resolv.conf. This sets the
default rc-manager to "resolvconf", which solves #61490. It
additionally allows the user to change rc-manager without interference
from configuration activations.
We might be inside a NixOS container on a non-NixOS host, so instead of not
running at all inside a container, check if the nix-daemon socket is writable as
it will tell us if the store is managed from here or outside.
Fixes#63578
This commit adds new options to the Deluge service:
- Allow configuration of the user/group which runs the deluged daemon.
- Allow configuration of the user/group which runs the deluge web
daemon.
- Allow opening firewall for the deluge web daemon.
The override that builds the custom python for integrations-core was
overriding python, but pythonPackages was still being inherited from a
call to `datadog-integrations-core {}`, causing
service.datadog-agent.extraIntegrations to be ignored.
This commit adds new configuration options to the Lidarr module that
allows configuration of the user and group that Lidarr runs as; and to
open the firewall for the Lidarr port.
This was added in #19936 so that vulkan-loader finds the ICD config files. It is
not needed any more after #62869 where it was ensured that the loader looks in
/run/opengl-driver(-32)/share.
