Eelco Dolstra 4b8275d2c4 * Force loading of the CFQ module, i.e. don't do it on demand — that
seems to cause weird modprobe hangs.

Eelco Dolstra 8b3fd3ed49 * Use the CFQ I/O scheduler, rather than the ‘none’ scheduler. This
was already the case on Linux 2.6.32, but in newer kernels the CFQ
  scheduler is built as a module, so all block devices got the ‘none’
  scheduler instead.

Eelco Dolstra 1e5bd11a53 * Create /run in the initrd and bind-mount it into the target root.
This allows Udev to share its database between stage 1 and 2, which
  in turn is expected by the LVM Udev rules.

Eelco Dolstra 14636ba057 * The Powers That Be have decided that there shall be a /run to
replace /var/run and /var/lock.  For instance, udev now keeps state
  in /run/udev instead of /dev/.udev.  See

    http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2011-March/150031.html
    http://bugs.freestandards.org/show_bug.cgi?id=718

  So this patch creates /run as a tmpfs, and symlinks /var/run to /run
  and /var/lock to /run/lock.

  TODO: create /run in stage 1 and propagate it to stage 2.

Eelco Dolstra 131f3c8e63 * Because cdrom_id now links against libpthread, LD_LIBRARY_PATH must
be set when udevd calls external programs.  (The udev manpage claims
  that udevd passes its own environment variables, but this is not the
  case.)
* Get rid of some udev rule hacks that no longer seem needed.

Eelco Dolstra dff372db3c * Fix evaluation of the luksroot module when luksRoot == null. The
problem is that configuration values below a mkIf are evaluated
  strictly even if the condition is false.  Thus "${luksRoot}" causes
  an evaluation error.  As a workaround, use the empty string instead
  of `null' as the default value.  However, we should really fix the
  laziness of mkIf.  It's likely that NixOS evaluation would be much
  faster if it didn't have to evaluate disabled configuration values.

Eelco Dolstra c4f910f550 * Substitute the path of the system derivation directly in the stage 2
init script.  This removes the need for the `systemConfig' boot
  parameter; `init=<stage-2-init>' is enough.  However, the GRUB menu
  builder still needs to add `systemConfig' to the kernel command line
  for compatibility with old configurations.

Eelco Dolstra f729f12e4e Some cleanups in the activation script:
* Moved some scriptlets to the appropriate modules.
* Put the scriptlet that sets the default path at the start, since it
  never makes sense not to have it there.  It no longer needs to be
  declared as a dependency.
* If a scriptlet has no dependencies, it can be denoted as a plain
  string (i.e., `noDepEntry' is not needed anymore).

Eelco Dolstra f067d179ab * Create /nix/var/nix/gcroots/tmp in the activation script. The
build hook uses this directory to store temporary GC roots.  (It
  creates it if it doesn't exist, but it's better to do it here as
  well to ensure the right ownership and permissions.)
* Clear /nix/var/nix/gcroots/tmp and /nix/var/nix/temproots at boot
  time.

Eelco Dolstra e8e7ee356c * In the installation CD, pass the label of the CD through the
root=... kernel command line parameter, instead of hard-coding it in
  `fileSystems'.  This is to allow CD-to-USB converters such as
  UNetbootin to rewrite the kernel command line to the label or UUID
  of the USB stick.

Eelco Dolstra d659488209 * Use the regular GRUB menu builder for Amazon. There are two issues:
we want to generate the GRUB menu without actually installing GRUB
  (because Amazon supplies its own pv-grub), and each menu entry
  requires "root (hd0)".  For the first, allow boot.loader.grub.device
  to be set to "nodev" to indicate that the GRUB menu should be
  generated without installing GRUB.  For the second, add an option
  boot.loader.grub.extraPerEntryConfig to allow commands to be added
  to each GRUB menu entry (in this case, "root (hd0)").

Eelco Dolstra e7c0c929ed * Work around a bug in QEMU, which doesn't implement the "READ DISC
INFORMATION" SCSI command:

    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=609049

  As a result, `cdrom_id' doesn't print
  ID_CDROM_MEDIA_TRACK_COUNT_DATA, which in turn prevents the
  /dev/disk/by-label symlinks from being created.  We need these in
  the NixOS installation CD, so use ID_CDROM_MEDIA in the
  corresponding udev rules for now.  This was the behaviour in udev <=
  154.  See also

Eelco Dolstra a5c433696c * Put all of /var/run (not just /var/run/nscd) on a tmpfs to simplify
shutdown.  (Portmap and statd are needed during shutdown to unmount
  NFS volumes but have open files in /var/run.)
* In the shutdown job, don't kill PIDs belonging to Upstart jobs that
  are still running.  If they don't stop on the "starting shutdown"
  event, then they're needed during shutdown (such as portmap and
  statd).
* NFS test: test whether the shutdown quickly unmounts NFS volumes
  (i.e. whether portmap and statd are still running).

  FS.  It automatically moves over the /dev, /proc and /sys from stage
  1, so stage 2 doesn't need to set them up again.

Lluís Batlle i Rossell 33ed225a84 Making the /dev and /dev/shm tmpfs sizes configurable.
By default, they take the usual value of "50% of physical RAM".

As /dev/shm can be filled by anyone, and tmpfs does not trigger the OOM killer (and
can hang the machine due to a lack of RAM), I need to configure that down
in order to avoid crashes.

There is still left the /var/run/nscd tmpfs filesystem, also created with 50%
of the RAM, but at least not writeable by anyone. We could find a reasonable
low value for that, or allow configuration.
