This is the master branch of nixpkgs, initially pulled from commit 8debf2f9a63d54ae4f28994290437ba54c681c7b The intent of this repo is to be merged onto nixpkgs master. This will also be of help for https://git.suyu.dev/BoomMicrophone/suyu-nix-test which I will need in order for development (it will also be helpful to know what to do for setting up the environment for the master server. Currently I am focusing on this so I can actually see what is still missing) This repo will be removed once the PR to the nixpkgs github goes through

Shea Levy 70378ad2b7 Add our firmware path to the in-kernel lookup path
Newer kernels (since torvalds/linux@abb139e75c) try to
read firmware directly from the filesystem before falling back to a
userspace helper (udev) if firmware cannot be found (in even newer
kernels, the fallback path can be disabled altogether). By default, only
certain paths in /lib/firmware* are searched, so this was initially not
helpful for NixOS.

Since torvalds/linux@2760284206 (which,
based on the commit message, was implemented just for NixOS, go us!),
though, an extra path can be dynamically prepended to the search path.
So do that, in three ways:

1. Pass a kernel command line option in case the module is built-in
2. Add a line to modprobe.conf in case the module isn't yet loaded by
activation-time
3. Add an activation script to set the option in /sys in case the module
is already loaded by activation-time.
