This was previously removed in 74c4e30842.
This will allow hydra to build iso and sd images for aarch64-linux, and
share a common channel with the x86-based platforms.
Currently, when building NixOS from a git clone, Nix has to copy
the entire repo at >1GB into the store by default. That is not
necessary and causes a dumping large path message.
If you need the old behaviour for some reason, you will have to
specify it by passing the path to your repo explicitly as the
nixpkgs argument like this:
--arg nixpkgs '{outPath = ./.; revCount = 56789; shortRev = "gfedcba"; }'
The existing callSubTests seems to already have special-cased code to
allow enabling subtests on a single specific system by looking at the
`system` attribute in the test arguments. Replace it with a new version
similar to the callTestOnTheseSystems because:
- It's consistent with the existing functions for creating
system-specific tests (though admittedly, the callSubTests special
case for `system` predates them)
- This approach allows limiting to multiple system types, the previous
one inherently allows only one system type.
- This also fixes the problem that if you pass in e.g.
supportedSystems = [ "aarch64-linux" ], you end up with a
tests.chromium job that silently runs on x86_64-linux.
- Finally, this causes renames of the jobs like:
tests.chromium -> tests.chromium.x86_64-linux to be consistent with
the rest of the tests.
Currently, even if you pass supportedSystems = [ "aarch64-linux" ] you
end up with e.g. `nixos.tests.docker` which actually silently runs on
x86_64-linux. Using the new callTestOnTheseSystems fixes that.
As a side-effect, this also causes a rename of
`nixos.tests.docker` -> `nixos.tests.docker.x86_64-linux`, which is IMHO
a good thing since it's makes them consistent with the rest of the
tests.
Lately failing i686 tests like firefox have been blocking channel
releases. We're still building the tests for systems with limited
support but won't delay a channel release if they fail.
Arguably, breaking linux-latest should not block a release. Also, booting
the kernel + basic sanity checking is implicitly exercised by every other
vm test.
- sysctl is new and never succeeded on i686-linux
> cannot stat /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable: No such file or directory
- testing plasma5 on i686 would defeat part of the reason why we ended
supporting i686 (lots of stuff built on Hydra)
We really want to break channel updates whenever we break something like
this, because this actually will hit machines out there and can be very
much annoying (we had broken keymaps a few times which is why I
introduced these tests in the first place).
Just to be sure I don't break channel updates with this commit, I ran
all of the keymap tests and they all succeeded.

This is currently our default display manager, so I'm adding this to the
"tested" job as well to ensure we don't ship broken revisions where X is
most likely not working.
The test uses a custom SLiM theme that's specifically tailored for good
OCR results (mainly white background and black fonts without anything
else), because our default NixOS theme has a very small contrast between
background and fonts in some places.

This reverts commit b806e25d65.
This seems to push Hydra's memory usage out of the roof fail nixos
evaluating with:
Too many heap sections: Increase MAXHINCR or MAX_HEAP_SECTS
Let's revert this for now. It's not a big deal at all since the
nixpkgs-unstable jobset is still building the packages.
We don't want to push out a channel update whenever this test fails,
because that might have unexpected and confused side effects and it
*really* means that stage 1 of our boot up is broken.

As @bobvanderlinden suggests in #13585:
"Looks like that cleans things up quite a bit! Just one aesthetics note,
the boot tests could now be renamed from boot.bootBiosCdrom to
boot.biosCdrom in nixos/tests/boot.nix:L33.
That makes them more consistent with the other tests."

This makes it easier to test just a specific channel rather than to
force testing all builds down the users/testers throat. Especially this
makes it easier to test NixOS channel upgrades only against the Chromium
stable channel instead of just removing the beta/dev channels from the
tests entirely (as done in 69ec09f38a).

Should clean up a lot of these redundant lines for various sub-tests.
Note that the tests.boot* are now called tests.boot.boot*, but otherwise
all the test attribute names should stay the same.

It serves as a regression test, because right now if you enable
networking.useNetworkd the default loopback interface doesn't get
assigned any IP addresses.
To be sure, I have bisected this and it has been introduced with the
update to systemd 228 in 1da87d4.
Only the "scripted" networking tests have to succeed in order to trigger
a channel update of nixos-unstable, so I'm leaving this test as broken
and we have to figure out next what's the *exact* reason for the
breakage.

Currently there are no tests that depend on the JDK. Since we don't
want a release with a broken JDK, make it an explicit dependency of
the "tested" jobs.
We want to avoid getting broken LUKS systems into the latest channel, so
let's ensure that the channel update won't happen if LUKS support is
broken again.

It has been removed by 71a197bc6e.
I'm reintroducing the test mainly because it actually *is* useful,
because right now, machines with mdraid will not boot. In order to
prevent such things from happening in the future, we should *not* remove
this VM test again.
If it really goes back to failing randomly, we should really try to fix
it instead of removing it again.
Of course it fails right now because of the mdraid bump in 7719f7f.
Also, if you want to have additional info about the reasons, have a look
at the commit message of 666cf992f0.

It now strictly evaluates all remaining attributes, preventing
unevaluated thunks that cannot be garbage-collected. It's also applied
to all jobs in Nixpkgs' release.nix.
This reduces hydra-eval-jobs' memory consumption on the 14.12
release-combined jobset from 5.1 GB to 2.0 GB.
This test sometimes fails with
Kernel panic - not syncing: assertion "i && sym_get_cam_status(cp->cmd) == DID_SOFT_ERROR" failed: file "/tmp/nix-build-linux-3.14.32.drv-0/linux-3.14.32/drivers/scsi/sym53c8xx_2/sym_hipd.c", line 3399
after "sd 2:0:0:0: ABORT operation timed-out."
Since we don't care all that much about GRUB 1 anymore, don't make the
release depend on it.

I tried to keep apparently-safe code in conflicts.
release.nix and release-combined.nix current hardcode the systems which
they are built for. This change introduces an argument to the
expressions called supportedSystems, which allows the builder to choose
which architectures he wants to build. By default, this uses the same
linux x86_64 and i686 architectures.
