The new systemd in 19.09 gives an "Access Denied" error when doing
"systemctl daemon-reexec" on an 19.03 system. The fix is to use the
previous systemctl to signal the daemon to re-exec itself. This
ensures that users don't have to reboot when upgrading from NixOS
19.03 to 19.09.
Fixes problems such as:
systemd[1]: Failed to put bus name to hashmap: File exists
systemd[1]: dbus-org.freedesktop.nm-dispatcher.service: Two services allocated for the same bus name org.freedesktop.nm_dispatcher, refusing operation.
Problem is that systemd treats symlinks to files outside the service
path differently, causing our old workaround to look like two separate services.
These symlinks are intended to be a means for manually emulating
the behavior of the `Alias=` directive in these services.
Unfortunately even making these symlinks relative isn't enough,
since they don't make it to where it matters--
that only makes the links in /etc/static/systemd/system/*
relative, with systemd still being shown non-relative links
in /etc/systemd/system/*.
To fix this, drop all of this at the package level
and instead simply specify the aliases in the NixOS modules.
Also handle the same for modemmanager,
since the networkmanager NixOS module also handles that.
During the last update, `hydra-notify` was rewritten as a daemon which
listens to postgresql notifications for each build[1]. The module
uses the `hydra-notify.service` unit from upstream's Hydra module and
the VM test ensures that email notifications are sent properly.
Also updated `hydra-init.service` to install `pg_trgm` on a local
database if needed[2].

We ship `https://cache.nixos.org` as binary cache by default which
automatically substitutes the test derivation used inside the Hydra
test. However it needs to be built locally to confirm that
`hydra-queue-runner` works properly.
Also inherited the platform name for the test derivation from `system`
to ensure that the build can be tested on each supported platform.

IE6 is long gone and this directive is not useful anymore. We can
spare a few CPU cycles (and maybe skip some bugs) by not trying to
disable gzip for MSIE6.
This option was added in 6336048c58 but it
is essentially a complete duplicate of the existing cfg.servers and
there seems to be no reason to keep maintaining it.
Furthermore, it requires annoying duplication if you try to do option
merging, e.g. merging in sets into your configuration.nix that add
`services.chrony.initstepslew` options will overwrite the servers option
unless you keep it, but that means you just have to duplicate
config.networking.timeServers again anyway which is an implementation
detail!

'iburst' allows chrony to make very quick adjustments to the clock by
doing a couple rapid measurements outside of the default 'minpoll'
option. This helps improve rapid time adjustment at boot, and is enabled
by default.

When mailman-web restarts, it removes the generated "static" directory. This
breaks a currently running httpd process, which needs a re-start, too, to
obtain a new handle for the newly generated path.
It turned out that /dev/snd/* always exists even if there are no sound
drivers loaded at all. Loading `snd` and `snd_timer` fixes that
situation. It is probably fair to assume someone that wants to use sound
also enables that in the NixOS configuration.
With systemd version 243 network units with empty match block will
generate warnigs. The reasoning seems to be that the intended behaviour
is hard to infere. Being explicit about really meaning any interface is
the reasonable thing here.
We want to get rid of this mechanism in the long run but as long as we
do not have a replacement we should stick with it and keep it in
reasonable good shape.
Rules are a translation of what's done in the
GDM module and adjustments based of looking at
Arch Linux's configuration and upstream's.
A side effect of this change is that gnome-keyring
and kwallet modules should work as expected when in-
cluded.
Fixes #64259#62045
Adds the ability to make any parameter specified in extraConfig secret
by defining it an attrset containing the attr _secret, which in turn
is a path to a file containing the actual secret.
Introduce new functions which allows modules to define options where,
if the input is an attrset and the output is JSON, the user can define
arbitrary secrets.
Use the postgresql module to provision a local db (if
databaseCreateLocally is true) instead of doing this locally.
Switch to using the local unix socket for db connections by default;
this is needed since dbs created by the postgresql module only support
peer authentication.
Instead of running the rake tasks db:schema:load, db:migrate and
db:seed_fu, run gitlab:db:configure, which in turn runs these tasks
when needed.
Solves issue #53852 for gitlab.
Add support for storing secrets in files outside the nix store, since
files in the nix store are world-readable and secrets therefore can't
be stored safely there.
The old string options are kept, since they can potentially be handy
for testing purposes, but their descriptions now state that they
shouldn't be used in production. The manual section is updated to use
the file options rather than the string options and the tests now test
both.
This fixes the warning being emitted by nixos-rebuild switch:

trace: warning: types.string is deprecated because it quietly concatenates strings
It started emitting a warning in #66346.
This plugin is fairly outdated and depends on python2 libraries that
don't receive any updates either (xmpppy for instance[1]).

Always enable the UART because the VirtualBug bug that required running without the UART was fixed in 6.0.10. Stop using an old kernel version because the tests work with the default kernel.

In c814d72b51, a bunch of packages were
changed to use the pname attribute, among them were the quake3-demodata
and quake3-pointrelease which we use for the quake3 test.
Fortunately, having pname available means that we no longer need to
match using a prefix, so fixing this eval error also simplifies our
matching.
I directly pushed this to master because the change is non-controversial
and we can't break things that are already broken :-)

Since we moved gsettings-desktop-schemas to top-level, gnome3.glib-networking was the same as glib-networking.
We could try to make the top-level variant not depend on gsettings-desktop-schemas again but that is probably
pointless, as the dependency is rather small compared to things like libproxy. Instead, we will just drop
the package in gnome3 attr set and always rely on the top-level expression.
Since https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/61321, local-fs.target is
part of sysinit.target again, meaning units without
DefaultDependencies=no will automatically depend on it, and the manual
set dependencies can be dropped.
The redis module currently fails to start up, most likely due to running
a chown as non-root in preStart.
While at it, I hardcoded it to use systemd's StateDirectory and
DynamicUser to manage directory permissions, removed the unused
appendOnlyFilename option, and the pidFile option.
We properly tell redis now it's daemonized, and it'll use notify support
to signal readiness.
In fontconfig’s 60-generic.conf, order of preference is estabilished for emoji
font family. Because fontconfig parses the config files in lexicographic order,
appending each <prefer> from <alias> element to the family’s prefer list
(to be prepended before the family) [1], our font family defaults stored
in 52-nixos-default-fonts.conf will take precedence. That is, of course, unless
the default „weak“ binding [2] is used. Emoji family binds strongly [3],
so we need to set binding to “same” for our <alias>es to be considered before
the ones from 60-generic.conf.
By default, we will set the option to all emoji fonts supported by fontconfig,
so that emoji works for user if they have at least one emoji font installed.
If they have multiple emoji fonts installed, we will use the fontconfig’s
order of preference [4].

With local-fs.target part of sysinit.target
(https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/61321), we don't need to add it
explicitly to certain units anymore, and can change dependencies like
they are in other distros (I picked from Google's official CentOS 7
image here).
Like them, use StandardOutput=journal+console to pipe google-*.service
output to the serial console as well.
It turns out that checking for the last mount time of an ext4 file
system isn't a very reliable way to check whether the file system was
properly unmounted.
When creating that test in the first place (88530e02b6),
I was reluctant to inspect the file system when the VM is down and was
searching for a way to check for a clean unmount *after* the file system
was mounted again to make sure we don't need to create a 512 MB raw
image on the host.
Fortunately however, when converting from qcow2, qemu-img actually
writes a sparse file, so for most file systems (that is, file systems
supporting sparse files) this shouldn't waste a lot of disk space.
So when investigating the flakiness, I found that whenever the test is
failing, the unmount of /test-x-initrd-mount was done *before* the final
step during which systemd remounts+unmounts all the remaining file
systems.
I haven't investigated why this is the case, but the test is a
regression test for https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/35268, which
actually didn't unmount the file system *at* *all*, so really all we
need to take care here is whether the unmount has happened and not
*how*.
To make sure that checking the filesystem state is enough for this, I
temporarily replaced the $machine->shutdown call with $machine->crash
and verified that the file system state is "not clean".

Adds:
- gnome-color-manager
- services.avahi
It appears that GeoClue requires its daemon and IIRC has
been default enabled in other distros for a while.
- orca
It's the default screen-reader.
It currently lacks an emoji font-family which means it has to be
disabled for them to function [0]. Additionally it's fallen out of
necessity to ship custom font rendering settings (as far as I'm aware
of).
