c9b0e88c0b NixOS Manual: Container Networking with NM
Network Manager calls dhclient on container interfaces and fails

Old configuration format is disabled now (it can still be used, but with
additional steps). This is a backwards incompatible change.

8cbdd9d0c2 nixos/release-notes: move "PHP config-file-scan-dir" from 16.09 to 17.03
Commits

  351d12437 ("nixos/release-notes: PHP config-file-scan-dir /etc -> /etc/php.d")
  41c8aa8d6 ("php: change config-file-scan-dir from /etc to /etc/php.d")

were merged to master _after_ NixOS 16.09. Commit 351d12437 then wrongly
updated the NixSO 16.09 release notes. Fix by moving the entry to NixOS
17.03.

stdenv/stripHash: print to stdout, not to variable
`stripHash` documentation states that it prints out the stripped name to
the stdout, but the function stored the value in `strippedName`
instead.

Basically all usages did something like
`$(stripHash $foo | echo $strippedName)` which is just braindamaged.
Fixed the implementation and all invocations.

Merge pull request #18567 (VirtualBox 5.1.6)
This introduces VirtualBox version 5.1.6 along with a few refactored
stuff, notably:

  * Kernel modules and user space applications are now separate
    derivations.
  * If config.pulseaudio doesn't exist in nixpkgs config, the default is
    now to build with PulseAudio modules.
  * A new updater to keep VirtualBox up to date.

All subtests in nixos/tests/virtualbox.nix succeed on my machine and
VirtualBox was reported to be working by @DamienCassou (although with
unrelated audio problems for another fix/branch) and @calbrecht.

a6670c1a0b Fixes #18124: atomically replace /var/setuid-wrappers/ (#18186)
Before this commit updating /var/setuid-wrappers/ folder introduced
a small window where NixOS activation scripts could be terminated
and resulted into empty /var/setuid-wrappers/ folder.

That's very unfortunate because one might lose sudo binary.

Instead we use two atomic operations mv and ln (as described in
https://axialcorps.com/2013/07/03/atomically-replacing-files-and-directories/)
to achieve atomicity.

Since /var/setuid-wrappers is not a directory anymore, tmpfs mountpoints
were removed in installation scripts and in boot process.

Tested:

- upgrade /var/setuid-wrappers/ from folder to a symlink
- make sure /run/setuid-wrappers-dirs/ legacy symlink is really deleted

Infinality now has new hardcoded presets in freetype, which can be overriden if
desired with environment variables (as before). Accordingly, updated NixOS
module to set the hardcoded preset.

Additionally used a more "right" type for substitutions.

The link to some (of course non-existing, i.e. freedesktop) “libinput”
documentation is replaced by a piece of the API documentation.

The default is changed since the documentation suggests `adaptive`
should be it.

grsecurity module: disable EFI runtime services by default
Enabling EFI runtime services provides a venue for injecting code into
the kernel.

When grsecurity is enabled, we close this by default by disabling access
to EFI runtime services.  The upshot of this is that
/sys/firmware/efi/efivars will be unavailable by default (and attempts
to mount it will fail).

This is not strictly a grsecurity related option, it could be made into
a general option, but it seems to be of particular interest to
grsecurity users (for non-grsecurity users, there are other, more
immediate kernel injection attack dangers to contend with anyway).

845c9b50bf boot.initrd.luks.devices: Change into an attribute set
This allows setting options for the same LUKS device in different
modules. For example, the auto-generated hardware-configuration.nix
can contain

  boot.initrd.luks.devices.crypted.device = "/dev/disk/...";

while configuration.nix can add

  boot.initrd.luks.devices.crypted.allowDiscards = true;

Also updated the examples/docs to use /disk/disk/by-uuid instead of
/dev/sda, since we shouldn't promote the use of the latter.
