When a package contains a directory in one of the systemd directories
(like flatpak does), it is symlinked into the *-units derivation.
Then later, the derivation will try to create the directory, which
will fail:
mkdir: cannot create directory '/nix/store/…-user-units/dbus.service.d': File exists
builder for '/nix/store/…-user-units.drv' failed with exit code 1
Closes: #33233
This introduces an option that allows us to turn off stateful generation
of Diffie-Hellman parameters, which in some way is still "stateful" as
the generated DH params file is non-deterministic.
However what we can avoid with this is to have an increased surface for
failures during system startup, because generation of the parameters is
done during build-time.
Aside from adding a NixOS VM test it also restructures the type of the
security.dhparams.params option, so that it's a submodule.
A new defaultBitSize option is also there to allow users to set a
system-wide default.
I added a release notes entry that described what has changed and also
included a few notes for module developers using this module, as the
first usage already popped up in NixOS/nixpkgs#39507.
Thanks to @Ekleog and @abbradar for reviewing.
Always enable both tty and serial console, but set preferred console
depending on cfg.graphical.
Even in qemu graphical mode, you can switch to the serial console via
Ctrl+Alt+3.
With that being done, you also don't need to specify
`systemd.services."serial-getty@ttyS0".enable = true;` either as described in
https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Cheatsheet#Building_a_service_as_a_VM_.28for_testing.29,
as systemd automatically spawns a getty on consoles passwd via cmdline.
This also means, vms built by 'nixos-rebuild build-vm' can simply be run
properly in nographic mode by appending `-nographic` to `result/bin/run-*-vm`,
without the need to explicitly add platform-specific QEMU_KERNEL_PARAMS.
This allows to set the default bit size for all the Diffie-Hellman
parameters defined in security.dhparams.params and it's particularly
useful so that we can set it to a very low value in tests (so it doesn't
take ages to generate).
Regardless for the use in testing, this also has an impact in production
systems if the owner wants to set all of them to a different size than
2048, they don't need to set it individually for every params that are
set.
I've added a subtest to the "dhparams" NixOS test to ensure this is
working properly.

When trying to run NSD to serve the root zone, one gets the following
error message:
error: illegal name: '.'
This is because the name of the zone is used as the derivation name for
building the zone file. However, Nix doesn't allow derivation names
starting with a period.
So whenever the zone is "." now, the file name generated is "root"
instead of ".".
I also added an assertion that makes sure the user sets
services.nsd.rootServer, otherwise NSD will fail at runtime because it
prevents serving the root zone without an explicit compile-time option.
Tested this by adding a root zone to the "nsd" NixOS VM test.

lib.optional returns a singleton or an empty list. Therefore the
argument does not need to be wrapped in a list.
An alternative patch could have used lib.optionals but seems like no
more elements are going to be added to the optional list.
The following changes have been applied:
- the property `http.headers.X-Content-Type-Options` must a list of
strings rather than a serialized list
- instead of `/etc/docker/registry/config.yml` the configuration will be
written with `pkgs.writeText` and the store path will be used to run
the registry. This reduces the risk of possible impurities by relying
on the Nix store only.
- cleaned up the property paths to easy readability and reduce the
verbosity.
- enhanced the testcase to ensure that digests can be deleted as well
- the `services.docker-registry.extraConfig` object will be merged with
`registryConfig`
