pkgs/build-support/vm). This should make the NixOS regression tests
more robust on heavily loaded systems, where they now frequently
fail:
server# mounting //10.0.2.4/qemu on /hostfs...
server# [ 8.233991] Slow work thread pool: Starting up
server# [ 8.234721] Slow work thread pool: Ready
server# [ 23.271708] CIFS VFS: No response for cmd 114 mid 1
server# [ 23.272443] CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -112
server# mount: Host is down
server# [ 23.275188] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
Maybe there is a configurable timeout somewhere, which would be much
nicer...

automatically. This is mostly useful for testing. (KDM also has
this feature, but it's nice not to depend on KDE for non-KDE tests.)

* Factored out some commonality between tests to make them a bit
simpler to write. A test is a function { pkgs, ... }: -> { nodes,
testScript } or { machine, testScript }. So it's no longer
necessary to have a "vms" attribute in every test.

write some magic string to ttyS0. This removes the dependency on
having a CIFS mount.
* Use a thread to process the stdout/stderr of each QEMU instance.
* Add a kernel command line parameter "stage1panic" to tell stage 1 to
panic if an error occurs. This is faster than waiting until
connect() times out.

installation-cd-minimal.nix is now 2.6.32. Added most of its extra
tools to installation-cd-base.nix.
* Put memtest86 at the bottom of the GRUB menu. (There is currently
no good way to do this other than to change the module inclusion
order.)

* Miss-interpretation of the --skip option of cryptsetup. Ciphered partition labels are not supported. Labels are erased when doing mkswap on the ciphered partition.
* Avoid doing swapon on devices which are already listed in /proc/swaps.
* Remove no longer listed devices with only one swapoff command.

* Assemble devices only if there is a new entry.
* Add 'new-raid-array' flag to assemble new arrays.
* Emit new-devices flag to triggers the 'filesystems' task.

use exec so that upstart knows when automount shuts down.
If a mount is used upstart will send SIGKILL.
Automount doesn't clean up. So unmount everything using a post script.

presumably does, but it's marked as unstable upstream.

/nix bind mounted from a fs not rootfs.
As niksnut found, if the sources of bind mounted directories are
umounted before remounting them as "ro", a "mount -o remount,ro" on the
bind targets will not leave the filesystem properly umounted, the same
way as a "-o remount,ro" would do on a usual filesystem.
So, the trick of always remounting as 'ro' before attempting an umount seems
to fix the problem.
