Previously the NixOS-specific configuration for man-db was in the
package itself and /etc/man.conf was completely ignored.
This change moves it to /etc/man_db.conf, making declarative
configuration practical again.
It's now possible to generate the mandb caches for all packages
installed through NixOS `environment.systemPackages` at build-time.
The standard location for the stateful cache (/var/cache/man) is also
configured to allow users to run `mandb` manually if they wish.
Since generating the cache can be expensive the option is off by
default.
In /etc/sudoers, the last-matched rule will override all
previously-matched rules. Thus, make the default rule show up first (but
still allow some wiggle room for a user to `mkBefore` it), before any
user-defined rules.
The systemd socket unit files now more precisely track the IPFS
configuration, by including any multaddr they can make a `ListenStream`
for. (The daemon doesn't currently support anything which would use
`ListDatagram`, so we don't need to worry about that.)
The tests use some of these features.
Specifying mailboxes as a list isn't a good approach since this makes it
impossible to override values. For backwards-compatibility, it's still
possible to declare a list of mailboxes, but a deprecation warning will
be shown.
VMSGVA is recommended by virtualbox for Linux clients.
Compared to VBoxVGA and VBoxSVGA it also supports 3D acceleration.
Adding the driver makes nixos work with all three supported graphics card
types.
We need to keep the passthru.filesInstalledToEtc and passthru.defaultBlacklistedPlugins in sync with the package contents so let's add a test to enforce that.
udev gained native support to handle FIDO security tokens, so we don't
need a module which only added the now obsolete udev rules.

Upstream has this alias too; so that dbus activation works.
What I don't fully understand is why this would ever be useful given
this unit is already started way in early boot; even before dbus is up.
But lets just keep behaviour similar to upstream and then ask these
questions to upstream.
With this systemd buffers netlink messages in early boot from the kernel
itself; and passes them on to networkd for processing once it's started.
Makes sure no routing messages are missed.
Also makes an alias so that dbus can activate this unit. Upstream has
this too.
This will make dbus socket activation for it work
When `systemd-resolved` is restarted; this would lead to unavailability
of DNS lookups. You're supposed to use DBUS socket activation to buffer
resolved requests; such that restarts happen without downtime
This makes it possible to only start IPFS when needed. So a user’s
IPFS daemon only starts when they actually use it.
A few important warnings though:
- This probably shouldn’t be mixed with services.ipfs.autoMount
since you want /ipfs and /ipns aren’t activated like this
- ipfs.socket assumes that you are using ports 5001 and 8080 for the
API and gateway respectively. We could do some parsing to figure
out what is in apiAddress and gatewayAddress, but that’s kind of
difficult given the nonstandard address format.
- Apparently? this doesn’t work with the --api commands used in the tests.
Of course you can always start automatically with startWhenNeeded =
false, or just running ‘systemctl start ipfs.service’.
Tested with the following test (modified from tests/ipfs.nix):
import ./make-test-python.nix ({ pkgs, ...} : {
name = "ipfs";
nodes.machine = { ... }: {
services.ipfs = {
enable = true;
startWhenNeeded = true;
};
};
testScript = ''
start_all()
machine.wait_until_succeeds("ipfs id")
ipfs_hash = machine.succeed("echo fnord | ipfs add | awk '{ print $2 }'")
machine.succeed(f"ipfs cat /ipfs/{ipfs_hash.strip()} | grep fnord")
'';
})

Update nixos/modules/services/network-filesystems/ipfs.nix

Previously we had three services for different config flavors. This is
confusing because only one instance of IPFS can run on a host / port
combination at once. So move all into ipfs.service, which contains the
configuration specified in services.ipfs.
Also remove the env wrapper and just use systemd env configuration.
This should have been done initially, as otherwise it gets awfully
awkward to boot into new generations by default.
This system-specific image wasn't expected to be long-lived, thus why it
didn't end up being polished much.
Reality shows us we may be stuck with it for a bit longer, so let's make
it easier to use for new users.
The way this ends up being called with the raspberry pi 4 image builder
ends up not using the `-e` from the shebang.
In turn, the builds fails during cross-compilation. The wrong coreutils
ends up being used, but this is not made apparent.
The issue I faced is already fixed on master, but this ensures no one
ends up with a failed build "succeeding".
The default `undervolt` package does not accept floating point numbers for any of its numeric
arguments. This also mentions in what units are the values expressed.
The setgid is currently required for offline enqueuing, and
unfortunately smtpctl is currently not split from sendmail so there's
little running around it.
The OC_PASS environment variable can be used to create a user with
`occ user:add --password-from-env`. It is currently not possible to
use the `nextcloud-occ` to "non-interactively" create a user since
this variable is ignored by sudo.
This switches the unit to Restart=on-failure and switches the CPU policy
to fifo (the daemon tries to do that itself, but is denied permission).
Also add the package to $PATH to be able to use fs_cli easily.
It's pbPort, and it's also a connection string, meaning
listen-on-localhost is also possible. Provide an alias for the old
option name, so old configs still work.
This patch was done by curro:
The generated /etc/pam.d/* service files invoke the pam_systemd.so
session module before pam_mount.so, if both are enabled (e.g. via
security.pam.services.foo.startSession and
security.pam.services.foo.pamMount respectively).
This doesn't work in the most common scenario where the user's home
directory is stored in a pam-mounted encrypted volume (because systemd
will fail to access the user's systemd configuration).
This fixes a regression from 993baa587c which requires
networking.hostName to be a valid DNS label [0].
Unfortunately we missed the fact that the hostnames may also be empty,
if the user wants to obtain it from a DHCP server. This is even required
by a few modules/images (e.g. Amazon EC2, Azure, and Google Compute).

Fixes this warning at ibus-daemon startup:
(ibus-dconf:15691): dconf-WARNING **: 21:49:24.018: unable to open file '/etc/dconf/db/ibus': Failed to open file ?/etc/dconf/db/ibus?: open() failed: No such file or directory; expect degraded performance
xchg is advertised as a bidirectional exchange dir, but file content
transfer from host to VM fails due to caching:
If a file is read in the VM and then modified on the host, subsequent
re-reads in the VM can yield old, cached data.
This is caused by the use of 9p's cache=loose mode that is explicitly
meant for read-only mounts.
9p doesn't provide any suitable cache modes, so fix this by disabling
caching.
Also, remove a now unnecessary sync in the test driver.
This effectively disables nscd's built-in hosts cache, which turns out
to be erratic in some cases.
We only use nscd these days as a more ABI-neutral NSS dispatcher
mechanism.
Local caching should still be possible with local resolvers in
/etc/resolv.conf (via the `dns` NSS module), or without local resolvers
via systemd-networkd (via the `resolve` nss module)
We don't set enable-cache to no due to
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/50316#discussion_r241035226.
Refactor the systemd service definition for the haproxy reverse proxy,
using the upstream systemd service definition. This allows the service
to be reloaded on changes, preserving existing server state, and adds
some hardening options.
The `networking.interfaces.<name?>.proxyARP` option previously mentioned it would also enable IPv6 forwarding and `proxy_ndp`.
However, the `proxy_ndp` option was never actually set (the non-existing `net.ipv6.conf.proxy_arp` sysctl was set
instead). In addition `proxy_ndp` also needs individual entries for each ip to proxy for.
Proxy ARP and Proxy NDP are two different concepts, and enabling the latter
should be a conscious decision.
This commit removes the broken NDP support, and disables explicitly
enabling IPv6 forwarding (which is the default in most cases anyways)
Fixes#62339.
This fixes the output of "hostname --fqdn" (previously the domain name
was not appended). Additionally it's now possible to use the FQDN.
This works by unconditionally adding two entries to /etc/hosts:
127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost
These are the first two entries and therefore gethostbyaddr() will
always resolve "127.0.0.1" and "::1" back to "localhost" [0].
This works because nscd (or rather the nss-files module) returns the
first matching row from /etc/hosts (and ignores the rest).
The FQDN and hostname entries are appended later to /etc/hosts, e.g.:
127.0.0.2 nixos-unstable.test.tld nixos-unstable
::1 nixos-unstable.test.tld nixos-unstable
Note: We use 127.0.0.2 here to follow nss-myhostname (systemd) as close
as possible. This has the advantage that 127.0.0.2 can be resolved back
to the FQDN but also the drawback that applications that only listen to
127.0.0.1 (and not additionally ::1) cannot be reached via the FQDN.
If you would like this to work you can use the following configuration:
```nix
networking.hosts."127.0.0.1" = [
"${config.networking.hostName}.${config.networking.domain}"
config.networking.hostName
];
```
Therefore gethostbyname() resolves "nixos-unstable" to the FQDN
(canonical name): "nixos-unstable.test.tld".
Advantages over the previous behaviour:
- The FQDN will now also be resolved correctly (the entry was missing).
- E.g. the command "hostname --fqdn" will now work as expected.
Drawbacks:
- Overrides entries form the DNS (an issue if e.g. $FQDN should resolve
to the public IP address instead of 127.0.0.1)
- Note: This was already partly an issue as there's an entry for
$HOSTNAME (without the domain part) that resolves to
127.0.1.1 (!= 127.0.0.1).
- Unknown (could potentially cause other unexpected issues, but special
care was taken).
[0]: Some applications do apparently depend on this behaviour (see
c578924) and this is typically the expected behaviour.

https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/88492 flipped some references to
systemctl from config.systemd.package to /run/current-system/systemd/,
which udevRules obviously isn't able resolve.
If we encounter such references, replace them with
config.systemd.package before doing the check.
The `network-link-${i.name}` units raced with other things trying to
configure the interface, or ran before the interface was available.
Instead of running our own set of shell scripts on boot, and hoping
they're executed at the right time, we can make use of udev to configure
the interface *while they appear*, by providing `.link` files in
/etc/systemd/network/*.link to set MACAddress and MTUBytes.
This doesn't require networkd to be enabled, and is populated properly
on non-networkd systems since
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/82941.
This continues clean-up work done in
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/85170 for the scripted networking
stack.
The only leftover part of the `network-link-${i.name}` unit (bringing
the interface up) is moved to the beginning of the
`network-addresses-${i.name}` unit.

it does happen that `dnscrypt-proxy` exit when it is unable to
synchronise its resolvers metadata on startup. this can happen due
to network connectivity issues for example. not restarting it automatically
means no dns resolution will work until a manual restart is performed.
