Regression introduced by d4468bedb52bf03ff125d721634f83604bddd589. No systemd messages are shown anymore during VM test runs, which is not very helpful if you want to find out about failures. There is a bit of a conflict between testing and the change that introduced the regression. While the mentioned commit makes sure that the primary console is tty0 for virtualisation.graphics = false, our VM tests need to have the serial console as primary console. So in order to support both, I added a new virtualisation.qemu.consoles option, which allows to specify those options using the module system. The default of this option is to use the changes that were introduced and in test-instrumentation.nix we use only the serial console the same way as before. For test-instrumentation.nix I didn't add a baudrate to the serial console because I can't find a reason on top of my head why it should need it. There also wasn't a reason stated when that was introduced in 7499e4a5b917227696b7292ae1bd728d6b1978b0. Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@nix.build> Cc: @flokli, @dezgeg, @edolstra
Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the Hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-18.03
for the latest
release and nixos-unstable
for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-18.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master
.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/
folder.
