Many options define their example to be a Nix value without using
literalExample. This sometimes gets rendered incorrectly in the manual,
causing confusion like in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/25516
This fixes it by using literalExample for such options. The list of
option to fix was determined with this expression:
let
nixos = import ./nixos { configuration = {}; };
lib = import ./lib;
valid = d: {
# escapeNixIdentifier from https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/82461
set = lib.all (n: lib.strings.escapeNixIdentifier n == n) (lib.attrNames d) && lib.all (v: valid v) (lib.attrValues d);
list = lib.all (v: valid v) d;
}.${builtins.typeOf d} or true;
optionList = lib.optionAttrSetToDocList nixos.options;
in map (opt: {
file = lib.elemAt opt.declarations 0;
loc = lib.options.showOption opt.loc;
}) (lib.filter (opt: if opt ? example then ! valid opt.example else false) optionList)
which when evaluated will output all options that use a Nix identifier
that would need escaping as an attribute name.
Previously, systemd.network.links was only respected with networkd
enabled, but it's really udev taking care of links, no matter if
networkd is enabled or not.
With our module fixed, there's no need to manually manage the text file
anymore.
This was originally applied in 3d1079a20d,
but was reverted due to 1115959a8d causing
evaluation errors on hydra.
Fixes some dependency ordering problems at boot time with services that
require DNS. Without Type=notify these services might be started before
stubby was ready to accept DNS requests.
Previously the assertion passed if the kernel had support OR the
filter was *enabled*. In the case of a kernel without support, the
`checkReversePath` option defaulted to false, and then failed the
assertion.
...even when networkd is disabled
This reverts commit ce78f3ac70, reversing
changes made to dc34da0755.
I'm sorry; Hydra has been unable to evaluate, always returning
> error: unexpected EOF reading a line
and I've been unable to reproduce the problem locally. Bisecting
pointed to this merge, but I still can't see what exactly was wrong.
Running haproxy with "DynamicUser = true" doesn't really work, since
it prohibits specifying a TLS certificate bundle with limited
permissions. This revives the haproxy user and group, but makes them
dynamically allocated by NixOS, rather than statically allocated. It
also adds options to specify which user and group haproxy runs as.

enabled, but it's really udev taking care of links, no matter if

In 87a19e9048 I merged staging-next into master using the GitHub gui as intended.
In ac241fb7a5 I merged master into staging-next for the next staging cycle, however, I accidentally pushed it to master.
Thinking this may cause trouble, I reverted it in 0be87c7979. This was however wrong, as it "removed" master.
This reverts commit 0be87c7979.
I merged master into staging-next but accidentally pushed it to master.
This should get us back to 87a19e9048.

Minor incompatibilities due to moving to upstream defaults:
- capabilities are used instead of systemd.socket units
- the control socket moved:
/run/kresd/control -> /run/knot-resolver/control/1
- cacheDir moved and isn't configurable anymore
- different user+group names, without static IDs
Thanks Mic92 for multiple ideas.
There is no need to stop/start the unit when the machine is online or
offline.
This should fix the shutdown locking issues.
nixos zerotier: sometimes it doesn't shutdown
Deperecates the interfaces option which was used to generate a host:port
list whereas the port was always hardcoded to 53. This unifies the
listen configuration for plain and TLS sockets and allows to specify a
port without an address for wildcard binds.
Systemd dependencies for scripted mode
were refactored according to analysis in #34586.
networking.vswitches can now be used with systemd-networkd,
although they are not supported by the daemon, a nixos receipe
creates the switch and attached required interfaces (just like
the scripted version).
Vlans and internal interfaces are implemented following the
template format i.e. each interface is
described using an attributeSet (vlan and type at the moment).
If vlan is present, then interface is added to the vswitch with
given tag (access mode). Type internal enabled vswitch to create
interfaces (see openvswitch docs).
Added configuration for configuring supported openFlow version on
the vswitch
This commit is a split from the original PR #35127.
A centralized list for these renames is not good because:
- It breaks disabledModules for modules that have a rename defined
- Adding/removing renames for a module means having to find them in the
central file
- Merge conflicts due to multiple people editing the central file
As part of the networking.* name space cleanup, connman should be moved
to services.connman. The same will happen for example with
networkmanager in a separate PR.
The new description should give more clear understanding of when to
edit the option.
I used NixOS to set up a DNS server that is authoritative for certain
zones. The description of the `cacheNetworks` option made me think I
needed to set it to `"any"` to allow people to query the zone I set
up. Reading the source of the module would have clarified my
understanding, but at the time I just read the description and thought
little of it. Later I discovered I was getting tons of DNS requests
and presumably being used for a DNS amplification attack or similar.
I have fixed the problem now, but I would like the option to have a
clearer description so others don't make the same mistake I did.
Add a virtual user system based around pam and a Berkeley
user database.
Adding the:

Vsftpd options.
Ever since setting up bonding the `wpa_supplicant-unit-start` script has
been failing. This is because the file `bonding_masters` in
`/sys/class/net/` is *not* a directory containing `uevent`.
Adding a test to verify the `uevent` path to be sourced exists resolves
the problem.
The two new options make it possible to create the interface in one namespace
and move it to a different one, as explained at https://www.wireguard.com/netns/.
In cases where you boot up really quickly (like in the VM test on a
non-busy host), tinydns might want to bind before the loopback interface
is fully up. Order tinydns after network.target to fix that.
Incorrect merging of modules resulted in dhcpcd being enabled causing flaky network connection.
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/64364
Fixing it uncovered an infinite recursion from the same commit, previously masked by the incorrect merge.
We can just drop the `mkDefault` for `networking.wireless.enable` as it is already `false` by default.
Closes: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/72416
This change ensures that `dhcpcd.service` is restarted as soon as the
exit hook changes. I use this hook to do additional configuration for my
network (like setting a route via the given gateway to my WireGuard) and
when changing parts of this exit hook I'd expect to get this activated
when switching to my new configuration.
This is a good example of a package/module that should be distributed
externally (e.g. as a flake [1]): it's not stable yet so anybody who
seriously wants to use it will want to use the upstream repo. Also,
it's highly specialized so NixOS is not really the right place at the
moment (every NixOS module slows down NixOS evaluation for everybody).

It seems that dnsdist doesn't actually request CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE, which is why normally it's executed and root and setuids to another, unprivileged, user. This means that as it is, dnsdist will be unable to bind to any port under 1024 and will fail with access denied.
Removing CAP_SETGID and CAP_SETUID is also related to this as we don't actually change the uid or gid after the fact as we use DynamicUser. (That part isn't strictly NEEDED but there's no reason to have those capabilities if we don't use them).
There are also some additional sandboxing we can remove from the service definition as they are assumed true or strict by DynamicUser: specifically PrivateTmp and ProtectSystem respectively.
ProtectHome is still there, despite being assumed read-only as setting it to true means they are seen as empty. I don't think it really matters as I don't know if systemd will ignore it or not, but I didn't see any reason to go hunting for excuses to make it a bigger change.
This option was removed because allowing (multiple) regular users to
override host entries affecting the whole system opens up a huge attack
vector. There seem to be very rare cases where this might be useful.
Consider setting system-wide host entries using networking.hosts,
provide them via the DNS server in your network, or use
networking.networkmanager.appendNameservers to point your system to
another (local) nameserver to set those entries.
Otherwise connecting simply fails:
VPN connection: failed to connect: 'La création du fichier « /tmp/lib/NetworkManager-fortisslvpn/0507e3ef-f0e0-4153-af64-b3d9a025877c.config.XSB19Z » a échoué : No such file or directory'
This fixes a regression from bb649d96b0.
There were permission problems, when the preStart script tried to copy
the smokeping.fcgi file over the old file.
This introduces an option wifi.backend to the networkmanager module.
