NixOS has `virtualisation.docker.autoPrune.enable` for this
functionality; we should not do it every time a container starts up.
(also, some trivial documentation fixes)
- the `imageFile` option allows to load an image from a derivation
- the `dependsOn` option can be used to specify dependencies between container systemd units.

Previously, we were storing the leader pid in a runtime file and
signalled SIGRTMIN+4 manually.
In systemd 219, the `machinectl poweroff` command was introduced, which
does that for us.
The missing `\n` in the printf format string prevented multiple channels from
being logged.
The missing `nixpkgs=` in the `NIX_PATH` prevented `nixos-rebuild` from working
if the system configuration has any reference to `nixpkgs`.
Additionally:
* Use process substitution instead of piping printf to avoid creating a subshell.
* Set an empty `IFS` to avoid word splitting.
* Add the `-r` flag to `read` to avoid mangling backslashes.
Currently, LXD always use pkgs.zfs, even if boot.zfs.enableUnstable is set. This
change provides the option to change the LXC, LXD and ZFS packages, and
determines the default ZFS package based on zfs.enableUnstable.
This makes ~2.5x speed up of an empty container instantiate, hence reduces
rebuild time of system with many declarative containers.
Note that this doesn't affect production systems much, becaseu those most
likely already include `minimal.nix` profile.
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.
While switching NixOS configurations with both
networking.useNetworkd = true;
virtualisation.virtualbox.host.enable;
You often end up waiting for systemd-networkd-wait-online.service.
This happens because the vboxnet0 device doesn't have a carrier until
virtualbox machines are started, so networkd gets stuck in
"Configuring":
⇒ networkctl list
IDX LINK TYPE OPERATIONAL SETUP
1 lo loopback carrier unmanaged
2 wlp2s0 wlan routable unmanaged
3 vboxnet0 ether no-carrier configuring
This updates the NixOS virtualbox host module to include a
RequiredForOnline=no statement in the generated 40-vboxnet0.network
file, so networkd doesn't consider it necessary for
systemd-networkd-wait-online.service to finish.
List all modules that *may* be required depending on individual container
configurations; don't expect that further modules can be loaded after boot.
Fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/38676
Openvswitch was upgraded to the latest
stable version (currenty 2.12.0). This remove ovs-monitor-ipsec
commands.
LTS version is still available using
`config.virtualisation.vswitch.package = pkgs.openvswitch-lts`
it has been upgraded to 2.5.6.
This commit is a split from the original PR #35127.
This fixes the warning being emitted by nixos-rebuild switch:
building Nix...
building the system configuration...
trace: warning: types.string is deprecated because it quietly concatenates strings
It started emitting a warning in #66346.
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.
