We hit page allocation failures a lot at random for VM tests, in case of
my own Hydra when it comes to the installer tests. The reason for this
is that once the memory of the VM gets heavily fragmented the kernel is
unable to allocate new pages.
Setting vm.min_free_kbytes to 16MB forces the kernel to keep a minimum
of 16 MB free.
I've done some testing accross repeated runs of the installer tests with
and without vm.min_free_kbytes set. So accross 30 test runs for each
settings, all of the tests with the option being set passed while 14
tests without that sysctl option triggered page allocation failures.
Sure, running 30 tests is not a guarantee that 16MB is enough, but we'll
see how it turns out in the long run across all VM tests.

Adds a new service module for shairport-sync. Tested with a local
and remote pulseaudio server. Needs to be run as a user in the pulse group
to access pulseaudio.
These options allow setting the start and stop scripts for the display
manager. Making these configurable is necessary to allow some hardware
configurations. Upstream ships empty scripts by default, anyway.
This new service invokes `simp_le` for a defined set of certs on a regular
basis with a systemd timer. `simp_le` is smart enough to handle account
registration, domain validation and renewal on its own. The only thing
required is an existing HTTP server that serves the path
`/.well-known/acme-challenge` from the webroot cert parameter.
Example:
services.simp_le.certs."foo.example.com" = {
webroot = "/var/www/challenges";
extraDomains = [ "www.example.com" ];
email = "foo@example.com";
validMin = 2592000;
renewInterval = "weekly";
};
Example Nginx vhost:
services.nginx.appendConfig = ''
http {
server {
server_name _;
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
location /.well-known/acme-challenge {
root /var/www/challenges;
}
location / {
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}
}
}
'';
Now the default way to define NixOS window manager modules is to use
mkEnableOption to describe the module itself.
In this commit, all files on nixos/modules/services/x11/window-managers
are changed.
Commit changes default version to 7.0.10, 7.0.5 version is kept for
people reluctant to update. Needed info has also been added for
versions 8.0, 8.1 and 8.2 only the latest minor version of each
major version is included.
This option allows user to specify a url prefix for owncloud.
By default it is set to "" and the document root will be set
to owncloud's dir.
If a prefix is set, e.g. urlPrefix = "/owncloud"
an alias will be created using that prefix to point to owncloud's
dir and owncloud will be available at http://localhost/owncloud
The advantage of putting the PID file under the ephemeral /run is that
when the machine crashes /run gets cleared allowing graphite to start
once the machine is rebooted.
We also set the PIDFile systemd option so that systemd knows the correct
PID and enables systemd to remove the file after service shut down.
* package statsd node packages separatly since they actually require
nodejs-0.10 or nodejs-0.12 to work (which is ... well old)
* remove statsd packages and its backends from "global" node-packages.json.
i did not rebuild it since for some reason npm2nix command fails. next time
somebody will rerun npm2nix statsd packages are going to be removed.
* statsd service: backends are now provided as strings and not anymore as
packages.
Add the possibility to specify plugin set to
be used as overridable `thunar` derivation argument.
New nixos config attribute:
`services.xserver.desktopManager.xfce.thunarPlugins`
that allows user to specify plugins in the context
of nixos.
Tests:
- With and without plugins.
- Using the nixos attributes.
This module implements a way to start one or more bepasty servers.
It supports configuring the listen address of gunicorn and how bepasty
behaves internally.
Configuring multiple bepasty servers provides a way to serve pastes externally
without authentication and provide creating,listing,deleting pastes interally.
nginx can be used to provide access via hostname + listen address.
`configuration.nix`:
services.bepasty = {
enable = true;
servers = {
internal = {
defaultPermissions = "admin,list,create,read,delete";
secretKey = "secret";
bind = "127.0.0.1:8000";
};
external = {
defaultPermissions = "read";
bind = "127.0.0.1:8001";
secretKey = "another-secret";
};
};
};
Ctrl+Alt+Backspace is usually enabled by default under X, and is a
keyboard shortcut that forcefully kills the current X server. This can
lead to data loss by users if accidentally pressed. This commit
introduces a new option, services.xserver.enableCtrlAltBackspace, that
is *disabled* by default. If set to true, the previous behavior can be
restored.
A similar decision was made by the Ubuntu team, and is documented here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XorgCtrlAltBackspace
Currently only the hardcoded default directories are created, not the
directories that the user may have provided. Fix that.
[Bjørn: fix small typo (%{settingsDir} => ${settingsDir}) and change
commit message.]
