These names are referenced by Perl variables inside the testing
frameworks which don't allow chars like `-` as character inside. An exemplary
expression may look like this:
```
{
x11-vm = {
services.xserver.enable = true;
};
}
```
This expression evaluates, e.g. when running `nixos-build-vms`, but when
trying to run `./result/bin/nixos-run-vms`, an error like this occurs:
```

This can be very confusing for beginners, this change breaks evaluation
if such names are used for machines.
pkgs.owncloud still pointed to owncloud 7.0.15 (from May 13 2016)
Last owncloud server update in nixpkgs was in Jun 2016.
At the same time Nextcloud forked away from it, indicating users

Systemd provides an option for allocating DynamicUsers
which we want to use in NixOS to harden service configuration.
However, we discovered that the user wasn't allocated properly
for services. After some digging this turned out to be, of course,
a cache inconsistency problem.
When a DynamicUser creation is performed, Systemd check beforehand
whether the requested user already exists statically. If it does,
it bails out. If it doesn't, systemd continues with allocating the
user.
However, by checking whether the user exists, nscd will store
the fact that the user does not exist in it's negative cache.
When the service tries to lookup what user is associated to its
uid (By calling whoami, for example), it will try to consult
libnss_systemd.so However this will read from the cache and tell
report that the user doesn't exist, and thus will return that
there is no user associated with the uid. It will continue
to do so for the cache duration time. If the service
doesn't immediately looks up its username, this bug is not
triggered, as the cache will be invalidated around this time.
However, if the service is quick enough, it might end up
in a situation where it's incorrectly reported that the
user doesn't exist.
Preferably, we would not be using nscd at all. But we need to
use it because glibc reads nss modules from /etc/nsswitch.conf
by looking relative to the global LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Because LD_LIBRARY_PATH
is not set globally (as that would lead to impurities and ABI issues),
glibc will fail to find any nss modules.
Instead, as a hack, we start up nscd with LD_LIBRARY_PATH set
for only that service. Glibc will forward all nss syscalls to
nscd, which will then respect the LD_LIBRARY_PATH and only
read from locations specified in the NixOS config.
we can load nss modules in a pure fashion.
However, I think by accident, we just copied over the default
settings of nscd, which actually caches user and group lookups.
We already disable this when sssd is enabled, as this interferes
with the correct working of libnss_sss.so as it already
does its own caching of LDAP requests.
(See https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/6/html/deployment_guide/usingnscd-sssd)
Because nscd caching is now also interferring with libnss_systemd.so
and probably also with other nsss modules, lets just pre-emptively
disable caching for now for all options related to users and groups,
but keep it for caching hosts ans services lookups.
Note that we can not just put in /etc/nscd.conf:
enable-cache passwd no
As this will actually cause glibc to _not_ forward the call to nscd
at all, and thus never reach the nss modules. Instead we set
the negative and positive cache ttls to 0 seconds as a workaround.
This way, Glibc will always forward requests to nscd, but results
will never be cached.
Fixes#50273
Right now it's not at all obvious that one can override this option
using `services.logind.extraConfig`; we might as well add an option
for `killUserProcesses` directly so it's clear and documented.
The intention of the previous change was to move krb5-config to .dev (it
gives the locations of headers), but it grabbed all of the user-facing
binaries too. This puts them back.
Could also move kdc.conf, but this makes it inconvenient to use command line
utilities with heimdal, as it would require specifying --config-file with every
command.
Allow switching out kerberos server implementation.
Sharing config is probably sensible, but implementation is different enough to
be worth splitting into two files. Not sure this is the correct way to split an
implementation, but it works for now.
Uses the switch from config.krb5 to select implementation.
They consistently fail since openjdk bump with some out-of-space errors.
That's not a problem by itself, but each test instance ties a build slot
for many hours and consequently they also delay channels as those wait
for all builds to finish.
Feel free to re-enable when fixed, of course.
The test now runs wayland, which means we can no longer use X11 style testing.
Instead we get gnome shell to execute javascript through its dbus interface.
Since 83b27f60ce, the tests were moved
into all-tests.nix and some of the tooling has changed so that
subattributes of test expressions are now recursively evaluated until a
derivation with a .test attribute has been found.
Unfortunately this isn't the case for all of the tests and the
runInMachine doesn't use the makeTest function other tests are using but
instead uses runInMachine, which doesn't generate a .test attribute.
Whener a .test attribute wasn't found by the new handleTest function, it
recurses down again until there is no value left that is an attribute
set and subsequently returns its unchanged value. This however has the
drawback that instead of getting different attributes for each
architecture we only get the last architecture in the supportedSystems
list.
In the case of the release.nix, the last architecture in
supportedSystems is "aarch64-linux", so the runInMachine test is always
built on that architecture.
In order to work around this, I changed runInMachine to emit a .test
attribute so that it looks to handleTest like it was a test created via
makeTest.

Docker images used to be, essentially, a linked list of layers. Each
layer would have a tarball and a json document pointing to its parent,
and the image pointed to the top layer:
imageA ----> layerA
|
v
layerB
|
v
layerC
The current image spec changed this format to where the Image defined
the order and set of layers:
imageA ---> layerA
|--> layerB
`--> layerC
For backwards compatibility, docker produces images which follow both
specs: layers point to parents, and images also point to the entire
list:
imageA ---> layerA
| |
| v
|--> layerB
| |
| v
`--> layerC
This is nice for tooling which supported the older version and never
updated to support the newer format.
Our `buildImage` code only supported the old version, so in order for
`buildImage` to properly generate an image based on another image
with `fromImage`, the parent image's layers must fully support the old
mechanism.
This is not a problem in general, but is a problem with
`buildLayeredImage`.
`buildLayeredImage` creates images with newer image spec, because
individual store paths don't have a guaranteed parent layer. Including
a specific parent ID in the layer's json makes the output less likely
to cache hit when published or pulled.
This means until now, `buildLayeredImage` could not be the input to
`buildImage`.
The changes in this PR change `buildImage` to only use the layer's
manifest when locating parent IDs. This does break buildImage on
extremely old Docker images, though I do wonder how many of these
exist.

As cassandra start script hardcodes the location of logback
configuration to `CASSANDRA_CONF_DIR/logback.xml` there is no way to
pass an alternate file via `$JVM_OPTS` for example.
Also, without logback configuration DEBUG level is used which is not
necessary for standard usage.
With this commit a default logback configuration is set with log level
INFO.
Configuration borrowed from:
https://docs.datastax.com/en/cassandra/3.0/cassandra/configuration/configLoggingLevels.html
Instead of setting User/Group only when DynamicUser is disabled, the
previous version of the code set it only when it was enabled. This
caused services with DynamicUser enabled to actually run as nobody, and
services without DynamicUser enabled to run as root.
Regression from fbb7e0c82f.
GitLab 11.5.1 dropped the dependency to posix_spawn, which is broken on
32bit. (See https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/53525)
The only part missing is decreasing virtualisation.memorySize to
something that a 32 bit qemu still executes.
The maximum seems to be 2047, and tests passed with that value for me.
This cleans up the CockroachDB expression, with a few suggestions from
@aszlig.
However, it brought up the note of using systemd's StateDirectory=
directive, which is a nice feature for managing long-term data files,
especially for UID/GID assigned services. However, it can only manage
directories under /var/lib (for global services), so it has to introduce
a special path to make use of it at all in the case someone wants a path
at a different root.
While the dataDir directive at the NixOS level is _occasionally_ useful,
I've gone ahead and removed it for now, as this expression is so new,
and it makes the expression cleaner, while other kinks can be worked out
and people can test drive it.
CockroachDB's dataDir directive, instead, has been replaced with
systemd's StateDirectory management to place the data under
/var/lib/cockroachdb for all uses.
There's an included RequiresMountsFor= clause like usual though, so if
people want dependencies for any kind of mounted device at boot
time/before database startup, it's easy to specify using their own
mount/filesystems clause.
This can also be reverted if necessary, but, we can see if anyone ever
actually wants that later on before doing it -- it's a backwards
compatible change, anyway.

Currently there are two calls to curl in the reloadScript, neither which
check for errors. If something is misconfigured (like wrong authToken),
the only trace that something wrong happened is this log message:
Asking Jenkins to reload config
<h1>Bad Message 400</h1><pre>reason: Illegal character VCHAR='<'</pre>
The service isn't marked as failed, so it's easy to miss.
Fix it by passing --fail to curl.
While at it:
* Add $curl_opts and $jenkins_url variables to keep the curl command
lines DRY.
* Add --show-error to curl to show short error message explanation when
things go wrong (like HTTP 401 error).
* Lower-case the $CRUMB variable as upper case is for exported environment
variables.
The new behaviour, when having wrong accessToken:
Asking Jenkins to reload config
curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 401
And the service is clearly marked as failed in `systemctl --failed`.
When privateNetwork is enabled, currently the container's interface name
is derived from the container name. However, there's a hard limit

we set a limit on the container name when privateNetwork is enabled.

According to the dbus-launch documentation [0] "--exit-with-session"
shouldn't be used: "This option is not recommended, since it will
consume input from the terminal where it was started; it is mainly
provided for backwards compatibility." And it also states: "To start a
D-Bus session within a text-mode session, do not use dbus-launch.
Instead, see dbus-run-session(1)."
The new wrapper also avoids starting an additional D-Bus session if
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS is already set.

This is to try and squeeze more lost space from the image, so that hydra
starts building it again.
The fsck previous to the resize2fs is required so resize2fs works.
The one afterwards is a sanity check.
Using `-M` from resize2fs will not give much saved space due to a known

Part of #49783. NextCloud tracks in its `config.php` the application's
state which makes it hard for the module to modify configurations during
upgrades.
It will take time until the issue is properly fixed, therefore we
decided to warn about this in the manual.
This PR addresses two things:
* Adding a basic example for nextcloud. I figured it to be helpful to
add some basic usage instructions when adding a new manual entry.
Advanced documentation may follow later.
For now this document actively links to the service options, so users
are guided to the remaining options that can be helpful in certain
cases.
* Add a warning about upgrades and manual changes in
`/var/lib/nextcloud`. This will be fixed in the future, but it's
definetely helpful to document the current issues in the manual (as
proposed in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/49783#issuecomment-439691127).

ZFS's popularity is growing, and not including it by default is a

I think we're in the clear to do this on the basis that Oracle
probably doesn't care, it is probably fine (the SFLC agrees) and
we're a small fish. If a copyright holder asks us to, we can
definitely revert it again.
This reverts commit 33d07c7ea9.
This fixes some quirks I introduced in previous commits.
1. No need for an extra newline when printing the output of shell commands.
2. 'or die' is what's already used in the NixOS test sources, while
'die unless' has no occurrences.
When reworking the rspamd workers I disallowed `proxy` as a type and
instead used `rspamd_proxy` which is the correct name for that worker
type. That change breaks peoples existing config and so I have made this
commit which allows `proxy` as a worker type again but makes it behave
as `rspamd_proxy` and prints a warning if you use it.
This commit adds an assertion that checks that either `configFile` or
`configuration` is configured for alertmanager. The alertmanager config
can not be an empty attributeset. The check executed with `amtool` fails
before the service even has the chance to start. We should probably not
allow a broken alertmanager configuration anyway.
This also introduces a test for alertmanager configuration that piggy
backs on the existing prometheus tests.
The nixos test is a bit misleading, as the given nginx configuration
would always cause gitlab to redirect to localhost, which is clearly not
what you want in a production setup.
Instead we now enable services.nginx.recommendedProxySettings,
curl against http://gitlab, and assure we get redirected to that same
hostname, too.
Previously I got the following error message:

Mininet (https://github.com/mininet/mininet) is a popular network emulator that
glues several components such as network namespaces, traffic control
commands into a set of python bindings. It is then "easy" to describe a
topology and run experiments on it.
The default of systemd is to kill the
the whole cgroup of a service. For slurmd
this means that all running jobs get killed
as well whenever the configuration is updated (and activated).
To avoid this behaviour we set "KillMode=process"
to kill only slurmd on reload. This is how
slurm configures the systemd service.

It's a quick approximation to unblock unstable channels after #48116.
This commit isn't ideal, as I suspect most wayland users won't have
xserver.enable, so they will lose the icon cache in case they had gtk
in system path (otherwise they didn't get cache anyway).
I considered using environment.noXlibs, but the nixos tests installing
headless systems do *not* get that option, so we would still be pulling
gtk in many cases where it's clearly not desired. We need to design
this more carefully.
Otherwise netdata will not find python modules.
To make sure netdata still pick up our setuid version of apps.plugin
we rename the original executable.
These days build systems are more robust w.r.t. to concurrency.
Most users will have at least two cores in their machines.
Therefore I suggest to increase the number of cores used for building.

This will make the list much easier to re-use, eg. for `nixosTests`
The drawback is that this approaches makes the
```
nix-build release.nix -A tests.opensmtpd.x86_64-linux
```
command about twice as slow (3s to 6s): it now has to evaluate `nixpkgs`
once for each architecture, instead of just having the hardcoded list of
tests that allowed to say “ok just evaluate for x86_64-linux”.
On the other hand, complete evaluation of `release.nix` should be much
faster because we no longer import `nixpkgs` for each test: testing with
the following command went from 30s to 18s, and that's just for a few
tests.
```
time nix-instantiate --eval --strict nixos/release.nix -A tests.nat
```
I initially wanted to test on the whole `release.nix`, but there are too
many broken tests and it takes too long to eval them all, especially
compared to the fact that the current implementation breaks some setup.
Given developers can just `nix-build nixos/tests/my-test.nix`, it sounds
like an overall win.
By using types.lines for 'config', we can specify monit configurations
in lots of modules and they can all be automatically combined together
with newlines. This is desireable because different modules might want
to each specify the small monitoring task specific to their service.
This commit also updates the module to use current idioms.
