This commit changes the console colors implementation
to use the kernel parameters instead of relying on terminal
escape sequences. This means the palette is applied by the
kernel itself with no custom code running in the initrd
and works for all virtual terminals (not only tty0).
This commit moves all the virtual console related options
to a dedicated config/console.nix NixOS module.
Currently most of these are defined in config/i18n.nix
with a "console" prefix like `i18n.consoleFont`,
`i18n.consoleColors` or under `boot` and are implemented
in tasks/kbd.nix.
Since they have little to do with actual internationalisation
and are (informally) in an attrset already, it makes sense to
move them to a specific module.
In 5532065d0690645f0a813fed6e68163b0f4774d4, acme was changed to be
RemainAfterExit=true, but `postRun` commands are implemented as
`ExecStopPost`. Systemd now considers the service to be still running
after simp_le is finished, so won't run these commands (e.g. to reload
certificates in a webserver). Change `postRun` to use `ExecStartPost` to
ensure the commands are run in a timely manner.
1. This makes aggregates of submodules (including the very important
"nixos-option users.users.<username>" case) behave the same way as any
other you-need-to-keep-typing-to-get-to-an-option-leaf (eg:
"nixos-option environment").
Before e0780c5:
$ nixos-option users.users.root
error: At 'root' in path 'users.users.root': Attribute not found
An error occurred while looking for attribute names. Are you sure that 'users.users.root' exists?
After e0780c5 but before this change, this query just printed out a raw
thing, which is behavior that belongs in "nix eval", "nix-instantiate
--eval", or "nix repl <<<":
$ nixos-option users.users.root
{
_module = {
args = { name = "root"; };
check = true;
};
createHome = false;
cryptHomeLuks = null;
description = "System administrator";
...
After this change:
$ nixos-option users.users.root
This attribute set contains:
createHome
cryptHomeLuks
description
extraGroups
group
hashedPassword
...
2. For aggregates of other types (not submodules), print out the option
that contains them rather than printing an error message.
Before:
$ nixos-option environment.shellAliases.l
error: At 'l' in path 'environment.shellAliases.l': Attribute not found
An error occurred while looking for attribute names. Are you sure that 'environment.shellAliases.l' exists?
After:
$ nixos-option environment.shellAliases.l
Note: showing environment.shellAliases instead of environment.shellAliases.l
Value:
{
l = "ls -alh";
ll = "ls -l";
ls = "ls --color=tty";
}
...
Deperecates the interfaces option which was used to generate a host:port
list whereas the port was always hardcoded to 53. This unifies the
listen configuration for plain and TLS sockets and allows to specify a
port without an address for wildcard binds.
Systemd dependencies for scripted mode
were refactored according to analysis in #34586.
networking.vswitches can now be used with systemd-networkd,
although they are not supported by the daemon, a nixos receipe
creates the switch and attached required interfaces (just like
the scripted version).
Vlans and internal interfaces are implemented following the
template format i.e. each interface is
described using an attributeSet (vlan and type at the moment).
If vlan is present, then interface is added to the vswitch with
given tag (access mode). Type internal enabled vswitch to create
interfaces (see openvswitch docs).
Added configuration for configuring supported openFlow version on
the vswitch
This commit is a split from the original PR #35127.
