I was confused why I couldn't find a mention of udev.log_priority in
systemd-udevd.service(8). It turns out that it was renamed[1] to
udev.log_level. The old name is still accepted, but it'll avoid
further confusion if we use the new name in our documentation.

most modules can be evaluated for their documentation in a very
restricted environment that doesn't include all of nixpkgs. this
evaluation can then be cached and reused for subsequent builds, merging
only documentation that has changed into the cached set. since nixos
ships with a large number of modules of which only a few are used in any
given config this can save evaluation a huge percentage of nixos
options available in any given config.
in tests of this caching, despite having to copy most of nixos/, saves
about 80% of the time needed to build the system manual, or about two
second on the machine used for testing. build time for a full system
config shrank from 9.4s to 7.4s, while turning documentation off
entirely shortened the build to 7.1s.
some options have default that are best described in prose, such as
defaults that depend on the system stateVersion, defaults that are
derivations specific to the surrounding context, or those where the
expression is much longer and harder to understand than a simple text
snippet.
The first one doesn't make any sense because the directory where the
init binary resides does not contain other tools we need like
systemd-escape.
The second one doesn't make sense either because the errors are already
ignored.
Add `systemd.network.networks.*.dhcpServerStaticLeaseConfig` to allow
for configuring static DHCP leases through the `[DHCPServerStaticLease]`
section. See systemd.network(5) of systemd 249 for details.
Also adds the NixOS test `systemd-networkd-dhcpserver-static-lease` to
test the assignment of static leases.
This reverts commit 57961d2b83, reversing
changes made to b04f913afc.
(I.e. this reverts PR #141192.)
While well-intended, this change does unfortunately introduce very
serious regressions that are especially disruptive/noticeable on desktop
systems (e.g. users of Sway will loose their graphical session when
running "nixos-rebuild switch").
Therefore, this change has to be reverted ASAP instead of trying to fix
it in "production".
Note: An updated version should be extensively discussed, reviewed, and
tested before re-landing this change as an earlier version also had to
be reverted for the exact same issues [0].
Fix: #146727

mkDerivedConfig : Option a -> (a -> Definition b) -> Definition b
Create config definitions with the same priority as the definition of another option.
This should be used for option definitions where one option sets the value of another as a convenience.
For instance a config file could be set with a `text` or `source` option, where text translates to a `source`
value using `mkDerivedConfig options.text (pkgs.writeText "filename.conf")`.
It takes care of setting the right priority using `mkOverride`.
Before this change, one could set environment.etc.*.text and .source.
.source would always take precedence, regardless of the priorities set.
This change means that if, for instance, .text is set with mkForce but
.source is set normally, the .text content will be the one to take
effect. If they are set with the same priority they will conflict.
