Since commits 89e9837 and 5b8dae8 the manual no longer depends on
evaluation of any packages from nixpkgs, so all errors of the form
"Package 'foo' is not supported on 'armv7l-linux'" are gone.
I needed to add sdhci_acpi and mmc_block to my initrd modules in order to boot
my Chromebook. Looking under /sys/class/mmc_host/*/device/driver/module will
give us the sdhci_acpi dependency.
This makes the firmware available (or would, if someone switched off
enableAllFirmware). Corresponding kernel module should get auto-loaded.
See #9948. Close#9971.
Option aliases/deprecations can now be declared in any NixOS module,
not just in nixos/modules/rename.nix. This is more modular (since it
allows for example grub-related aliases to be declared in the grub
module), and allows aliases outside of NixOS (e.g. in NixOps modules).
The syntax is a bit funky. Ideally we'd have something like:
options = {
foo.bar.newOption = mkOption { ... };
foo.bar.oldOption = mkAliasOption [ "foo" "bar" "newOption" ];
};
but that's not possible because options cannot define values in
*other* options - you need to have a "config" for that. So instead we
have functions that return a *module*: mkRemovedOptionModule,
mkRenamedOptionModule and mkAliasOptionModule. These can be used via
"imports", e.g.
imports = [
(mkAliasOptionModule [ "foo" "bar" "oldOption" ] [ "foo" "bar" "newOption" ]);
];
As an added bonus, deprecation warnings now show the file name of the
offending module.
Fixes#10385.
I doubt that ordering non-sysvinit services after network.target ever
makes sense. In this case, CopyConsole requires DNS lookups and fails
if these are not yet possible.
Synergy seems to get more and more unstable in recent versions, so we
might want to debug this properly. However, it makes sense to restart
the service nevertheless, because synergy is about keyboard and mouse
sharing and it's quite annoying to either SSH in to restart the service
or even needing to unplug the keyboard and plug in into the machine with
the failing service.

Trigger a restart of the post-resume.target on resume.
That allows other systemd services to receive the restart signal
after resume by becoming 'partOf' the post-resume.target.
Jenkins gets (by default) an additional environment of
{ NIX_REMOTE = "daemon"; }
This has the following problems:
1. NIX_REMOTE disappears when users specify additional environment
variables, because defaults have low merge priority.
2. nix cannot be used without additional NIX_PATH envvar, which is
currently missing.
3. If you try to use HTTPS, you'll see that jenkins lacks
SSL_CERT_FILE envvar, causing it to fail.
This commit adds config.environment.sessionVariables and NIX_REMOTE to
the set of variables that are always there for jenkins, making nix and
HTTPS work out of the box.
services.jenkins.environment is now empty by default.
Commit 9bfe92ecee ("docker: Minor improvements, fix failing test") added
the services.docker.storageDriver option, made it mandatory but didn't
give it a default value. This results in an ugly traceback when users
enable docker, if they don't pay enough attention to also set the
storageDriver option. (An attempt was made to add an assertion, but it
didn't work, possibly because of how "mkMerge" works.)
The arguments against a default value were that the optimal value
depends on the filesystem on the host. This is, AFAICT, only in part
true. (It seems some backends are filesystem agnostic.) Also, docker
itself uses a default storage driver, "devicemapper", when no
--storage-driver=x options are given. Hence, we use the same value as
default.
Add a FIXME comment that 'devicemapper' breaks NixOS VM tests (for yet
unknown reasons), so we still run those with the 'overlay' driver.
Closes#10100 and #10217.
When using the ZFS storagedriver in docker, it shells out for the ZFS
commands. The path configuration for the systemd task does not include
ZFS, so if the driver is set to ZFS, add ZFS utilities to the PATH.
This will resolve https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/10127

Configuration option for setting up virtual WLAN interfaces.
If the hardware NIC supports it, then multiple virtual WLAN interfaces can be
configured through the options of the new 'networking.wlanInterfaces' module.
For example, the following configuration transforms the device with the persistent
udev name 'wlp6s0' into a managed and a ad hoc device with the device names
'wlan-managed0' and 'wlan-adhoc0', respectively:
networking.wlanInterfaces = {
"wlan-managed0" = {
type = "managed";
device = "wlp6s0";
};
"wlan-adhoc0" = {
type = "ibss";
device = "wlp6s0";
};
};
Internally, a udev rule is created that matches wlp6s0 and runs a script which adds
the missing virtual interfaces and re-configures the wlp6s0 interface accordingly.
Once the new interfaces are created by the Linux kernel, the configuration of the
interfaces is managed by udev and systemd in the usual way.
If nixos-install is run on a machine with `nix.distributedBuilds = true`
the installation will fail at some point like this:
Died at /nix/store/4frhrl31cl7iahlz6vyvysy5dmr6xnh3-nix-1.10/libexec/nix/build-remote.pl line 115, <STDIN> line 1.
This is due to `nix.distributedBuilds` setting
NIX_BUILD_HOOK=/nix/store/.../build-remote.pl in the global environment,
which then gets confused in the minimal chroot created by nixos-install.
To avoid these kinds of issues with build hooks, just disable them in
the chroot.
