Reverse the PartOf dependency between network-setup and network-addresses-*
This was joint work of: @nh2, @domenkozar, @fpletz, @aszlig and @basvandijk
at the NixCon 2017 hackathon.
Currently, ecryptfs support is coupled to `security.pam.enableEcryptfs`, but one
might want to use ecryptfs without enabling the PAM functionality. This commit
splits it out into a `boot.supportedFilesystems` switch.
When autoFormat is enabled, in order to successfully create a filesystem,
certain filesystems require specific options to be passed to mkfs to prevent
it from asking questions. This commit sets default formatOptions to "-q"
for "jfs" and "reiserfs" filesystems for this purpose.
Resolves #29140.
powertop attempt to load some kernel modules like msr by calling
modprobe. This is the counterpart to
88e43eb39b which has the powertop
executable search PATH for modprobe rather than hardcoding /sbin, and
actually adds the directory containing modprobe to its PATH for the
systemd service.
This reverts commit 0c81594a29.
It's no longer needed since systemd-vconsole-setup enumerates all ttys
until it finds a suitable one since systemd v234.
Systemd is complaining that it can't delay the startup of device units.
We have a before dependency on the respective device unit for every
netdev service, which doesn't make any sense because we create the
actual interface in this service.
Previously, depending on the environment and the type of interface that
was created, the configured IPs of an interface wouldn't be applied on a
nixos-rebuild switch. It works after a reboot.
This patch ensures that the network-addresses service is started
either via the network-link service or if the networking target is
activated (i.e. on system activation).
Fixes #28474#16230.
This reverts commit 670b4e29ad. The change
added in this commit was controversial when it was originally suggested
in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/29205. Then that PR was closed
and a new one opened, https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/29503,
effectively circumventing the review process. I don't agree with this
modification. Adding an option 'resolveLocalQueries' to tell the locally
running name server that it should resolve local DNS queries feels
outright nuts. I agree that the current state is unsatisfactory and that
it should be improved, but this is not the right way.

This includes fuse-common (fusePackages.fuse_3.common) as recommended by
upstream. But while fuse(2) and fuse3 would normally depend on
fuse-common we can't do that in nixpkgs while fuse-common is just
another output from the fuse3 multiple-output derivation (i.e. this
would result in a circular dependency). To avoid building fuse3 twice I
decided it would be best to copy the shared files (i.e. the ones
provided by fuse(2) and fuse3) from fuse-common to fuse (version 2) and
avoid collision warnings by defining priorities. Now it should be
possible to install an arbitrary combination of "fuse", "fuse3", and
"fuse-common" without getting any collision warnings. The end result
should be the same and all changes should be backwards compatible
(assuming that mount.fuse from fuse3 is backwards compatible as stated
by upstream [0] - if not this might break some /etc/fstab definitions
but that should be very unlikely).
My tests with sshfs (version 2 and 3) didn't show any problems.
See #28409 for some additional information.

Currently the `rpc-gssd.service` has a `ConditionPathExists` clause that can
never be met, because it's looking for stateful data inside `/nix/store`.
`auth-rpcgss-module.service` also only starts if this file exists.
Fixes NixOS/nixpkgs#29509.
When the user specifies the networking.nameservers setting in the
configuration file, it must take precedence over automatically
derived settings.
The culprit was services.bind that made the resolver set to
127.0.0.1 and ignore the nameserver setting.
This patch adds a flag to services.bind to override the nameserver
to localhost. It defaults to true. Setting this to false prevents the
service.bind and dnsmasq.resolveLocalQueries settings from
overriding the users' settings.
Also, when the user specifies a domain to search, it must be set in
the resolver configuration, even if the user does not specify any
nameservers.

This commit was accidentally merged to 17.09 but was intended for
master. This is the cherry-pick to master.
Previously services depending on network-online.target would wait until
dhcpcd times out if it was enabled and a static network address
configuration was used. Setting the default gateway statically is enough
for the networking to be considered online.
This also adjusts the relevant networking tests to wait for
network-online.target instead of just network.target.
Boot fails when a keyfile is configured for all encrypted filesystems
and no other luks devices are configured. This is because luks support is only
enabled in the initrd, when boot.initrd.luks.devices has entries. When a
fileystem has a keyfile configured though, it is setup by a custom
command, not by boot.initrd.luks.
This commit adds an internal config flag to enable luks support in the
initrd file, even if there are no luks devices configured.
Adds /dev/disk/by-{id,label}/* symlinks for bcache device nodes, in the
final rootfs.
Symlinks will only be created for bcache devices that contain
filesystems. So if you have a blank bcache device or run LVM on top of
bcache you will not get this kind of symlink.
This reduces the time window during which IP addresses are gone during
switch-to-configuration. A complication is that with stopIfChanged =
true, preStop would try to delete the *new* IP addresses rather than
the old one (since the preStop script now runs after the switch to the
new configuration). So we now record the actually configured addresses
in /run/nixos/network/addresses/<interface>. This is more robust in
any case.

And adopt the tests to add an interface and remove it again.
It should work when deactivating rstp, it will not work when activating
rstp for the first bridge as then the userspace daemon is not yet
available. But once one bridge is active with stp, it should work with
the reload for any further bridge.
Fixes #21745. Also see #22547.
After the change of the bonding options, the examples were not quite correct.
The diff is over-the top because the new `let` needs everything indented.
Also add a small docstring to the `networkd` attr in the networking test.
reason: after the upgrade of iputils from 20151218 to 20161105
functionality of ping6 and tracepath6 was merged into ping and tracepath.
Ping is now mostly a drop-in replacment for ping6, except that selecting a
specific interface is done by encoding it into the address (ex.: fe80::1%eth0)
rather then specifing it with the `-I` flag.
Since the bonds interface changed to a lot more possible values we create a
mapping of kernel bond attribute names and values to networkd attributes.
Those match for the most part, but have to transformed slightly.
There is also an assert that unknown options won’t slip through silently.
Until now the four attributes available very selectively provided a small
subset, while copying upstream documentation.
We make driver options an arbitrary key-value set and point to kernel
documentation, which is always up-to-date. This way every option can be set.
The four already existing options are deprecated with a warning.
Previously, netdev units for network interfaces defined in the nixos
configurations would bindTo the systemd device unit of the interface if
not in a container.
In situations where you switch to a new nixos configration with changes
to network-setup.service (like nameservers) and have stacked interfaces
like vlans on a bond, it would fail to propagate restarts to the netdevs
correctly resulting with broken networking. The bond would be present
but no vlan interfaces rendering the machine unreachable.
My fear is that the udev events fail to propagate correctly while a systemd
transaction that is also restarting the triggered netdev service is running.
This commit changes this behaviour so netdev services bindTo other netdev
services if present and otherwise fall back to the previous behaviour.
We also noticed that stacked interfaces would sometimes seemingly be stopped
in the wrong order. For instance in the above example, the bond interface
would be deleted before the vlan interfaces resulting in the vlan interfaces
not being present when their service is being stopped. This would cause the
systemd transaction to fail and thus break networking. Their postStop hooks
are now allowed to fail as we have reached the desired state.
Regression introduced by 0cb487ee04.
This changed the result for defaultGateway to be a submodule instead of
just a plain string, so instead of using just cfg.defaultGateway we need
to pass cfg.defaultGateway.address now.

Until now nixos only delivered the latest zfs release. This release is often not
compatible with the latest mainline kernel. Therefor an unstable variant is
added, which might be based on testing releases or git revisions.
fixes #21359
/etc/hostname is the file used by hostnamectl(1) and the
org.freedesktop.hostname1 dbus service (both provided by systemd) to get
the "static hostname". Better provide it so that users of those
tools/services get a proper hostname.
An example of an issue created by the lack of /etc/hostname is that the
bluetooth stack on NixOS identifies itself to peers as "BlueZ $VERSION"
instead of the hostname.

* ensure /etc/hostname ends with a newline
Now the tracking works with aggregated devices on aggregated devices.
So container with physical device where the device is put in a bond
which is the basis for a bridge is now handled correctly.
Test that adding physical devices to containers works, find that network setup
then doesn't work because there is no udev in the container to tell systemd
that the device is present.
Fixed by not depending on the device in the container.
Activate the new container test for release
Bonds, bridges and other network devices need the underlying not as
dependency when used inside the container. Because the device is already
there.
But the address configuration needs the aggregated device itself.
Using types.str doesn't work if you want to mkBefore/mkAfter across
different module definitions, because it only allows for one definition
for the same priority.
This is especially useful if you deploy Hetzner machines via NixOps,
because the physical specification already defines localCommands.

See #18319 for details. Starting network-online.target manually does not
work as it hangs indefinitely.
Additionally, don't treat avahi and dhcpcd special and sync their systemd units
with the respective upstream suggestion.
Systemd upstream provides targets for networking. This also includes a target network-online.target.
In this PR I remove / replace most occurrences since some of them were even wrong and could delay startup.
A new internal config option `fileSystems.<name>.early` is added to indicate
that the filesystem needs to be loaded very early (i.e. in initrd). They are
transformed to a shell script in `system.build.earlyMountScript` with calls to
an undefined `specialMount` function, which is expected to be caller-specific.
This option is used by stage-1, stage-2 and activation script to set up and
remount those filesystems. Options for them are updated according to systemd
defaults.
Also add required systemd services for starting/stopping mdmon.
Closes #13447.
abbradar: fixed `mdadmShutdown` service name according to de facto conventions.
Allow usage of list of strings instead of a comma-separated string

It's likely that darwin is (still) broken nontrivially.
Configuration option for setting up virtual WLAN interfaces.
If the hardware NIC supports it, then multiple virtual WLAN interfaces can be
configured through the options of the new 'networking.wlanInterfaces' module.
For example, the following configuration transforms the device with the persistent
udev name 'wlp6s0' into a managed and a ad hoc device with the device names
'wlan-managed0' and 'wlan-adhoc0', respectively:
networking.wlanInterfaces = {
"wlan-managed0" = {
type = "managed";
device = "wlp6s0";
};
"wlan-adhoc0" = {
type = "ibss";
device = "wlp6s0";
};
};
Internally, a udev rule is created that matches wlp6s0 and runs a script which adds
the missing virtual interfaces and re-configures the wlp6s0 interface accordingly.
Once the new interfaces are created by the Linux kernel, the configuration of the
interfaces is managed by udev and systemd in the usual way.
The default options for all file systems currently are
"defaults.relatime", which works well on file systems which support the
relatime option.
Unfortunately, this is not the case for the VirtualBox shared folder
filesystem, so until now, you need to set something like:
fileSystems."/foo" = {
device = "foo";
fsType = "vboxsf";
options = "defaults";
};
Otherwise mounting the file system would fail.
Now, we provide only the "defaults" option to the "vboxsf" file system,
so something like this is enough:
fileSystems."/foo" = {
device = "foo";
fsType = "vboxsf";
};
An alternative to that could be to document that you need to set default
options, but we really should do what users expect instead of forcing
them to look up the documentation as to why this has failed.

If you power off your machine frequently, you could miss the execution
of some snapshots.
This is more troublesome the more infrequently the snapshots are
triggered. For example, monthly snapshots only execute at exactly
midnight on the first day of the month. If you only have your
machine powered on at that time with probability 50%, then half the
snapshots won't be triggered.
This means that if you wanted to keep 3 monthly snapshots, then instead
of keeping 3 months' worth of snapshotted data as you expected, you would
end up with snapshots spanning back 6 months.
Adding the "Persistent = yes" option to auto-snapshot timer units makes
a missed snapshot execute when booting up the machine.
Otherwise, in certain cases, snapshots of infrequently-modified
filesystems can be kept for a much longer time than the user would
normally expect, and cause a large amount of extra disk space to be
consumed.
Also added flag to snapshot filesystems in parallel by default.
I've also added a configuration option for zfs-auto-snapshot flags, so
that the user can override them.
For example, the user may want to append --utc to the list of default
options, so that the snapshot names don't cause name conflicts or
apparent time reversals due to daylight savings or timezone changes.
