This is to address a regression introduced in #131118.
When syncing the first dataset, syncoid expects that the target
dataset doesn't exist to have a clean slate to work with. So during
runtime we'll check if the target dataset does exist and if it doesn't
- delegate the permissions to the parent dataset instead.
But then, on unallow, we do the unallow on both the target and the
parent since the target dataset should have been created at this
point, so the unallow can't know which dataset that got permissions
just by which datasets exists.
When sending or receiving datasets with the old implementation it
wouldn't matter which dataset we were sending or receiving, we would
always delegate permissions to the entire pool.
After 733acfa140, syncoid would fail to
run if commonArgs did not include [ "--no-sync-snap" ], since it would
not have permissions to create or destroy snapshots.
Many options define their example to be a Nix value without using
literalExample. This sometimes gets rendered incorrectly in the manual,
causing confusion like in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/25516
This fixes it by using literalExample for such options. The list of
option to fix was determined with this expression:
let
nixos = import ./nixos { configuration = {}; };
lib = import ./lib;
valid = d: {
# escapeNixIdentifier from https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/82461
set = lib.all (n: lib.strings.escapeNixIdentifier n == n) (lib.attrNames d) && lib.all (v: valid v) (lib.attrValues d);
list = lib.all (v: valid v) d;
}.${builtins.typeOf d} or true;
optionList = lib.optionAttrSetToDocList nixos.options;
in map (opt: {
file = lib.elemAt opt.declarations 0;
loc = lib.options.showOption opt.loc;
}) (lib.filter (opt: if opt ? example then ! valid opt.example else false) optionList)
which when evaluated will output all options that use a Nix identifier
that would need escaping as an attribute name.
