Use types.str instead of types.path to exclude private information from
the derivation.
Add a warinig about the contents of acl beeing included in the nix
store.
Enables multi-site configurations.
This break compatibility with prior configurations that expect options
for a single dokuwiki instance in `services.dokuwiki`.
linux-hardened sets kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone=0 by default; see
anthraxx/linux-hardened@104f44058f.
This allows the Nix sandbox to function while reducing the attack
surface posed by user namespaces, which allow unprivileged code to
exercise lots of root-only code paths and have lead to privilege
escalation vulnerabilities in the past.
We can safely leave user namespaces on for privileged users, as root
already has root privileges, but if you're not running builds on your
machine and really want to minimize the kernel attack surface then you
can set security.allowUserNamespaces to false.
Note that Chrome's sandbox requires either unprivileged CLONE_NEWUSER or
setuid, and Firefox's silently reduces the security level if it isn't
allowed (see about:support), so desktop users may want to set:
boot.kernel.sysctl."kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone" = true;
* nixos/k3s: simplify config expression
* nixos/k3s: add config assertions and trim unneeded bits
* nixos/k3s: add a test that k3s works; minor module improvements
This is a single-node test. Eventually we should also have a multi-node
test to verify the agent bit works, but that one's more involved.
* nixos/k3s: add option description
* nixos/k3s: add defaults for token/serveraddr
Now that the assertion enforces their presence, we dont' need to use the typesystem for it.
* nixos/k3s: remove unneeded sudo in test
* nixos/k3s: add to test list
After the recent rewrite, enabled extensions are passed to php programs
through an extra ini file by a wrapper. Since httpd uses shared module
instead of program, the wrapper did not affect it and no extensions
other than built-ins were loaded.
To fix this, we are passing the extension config another way – by adding it
to the service's generated config.
For now we are hardcoding the path to the ini file. It would be nice to add
the path to the passthru and use that once the PHP expression settles down.
Add a distinctive `unit-script` prefix to systemd unit scripts to make
them easier to find in the store directory. Do not add this prefix to
actual script file name as it clutters logs.
Current journal output from services started by `script` rather than
`ExexStart` is unreadable because the name of the file (which journalctl
records and outputs) quite literally takes 1/3 of the screen (on smaller
screens).
Make it shorter. In particular:
* Drop the `unit-script` prefix as it is not very useful.
* Use `writeShellScriptBin` to write them because:
* It has a `checkPhase` which is better than no checkPhase.
* The script itself ends up having a short name.
systemd-tmpfiles will load all files in lexicographic order and ignores rules
for the same path in later files with a warning Since we apply the default rules
provided by systemd, we should load user-defines rules first so users have a
chance to override defaults.
This reverts commit 5532065d06.
As far as I can tell setting RemainAfterExit=true here completely breaks
certificate renewal, which is really bad!
the sytemd timer will activate the service unit every OnCalendar=,
however with RemainAfterExit=true the service is already active! So the
timer doesn't rerun the service!
The commit also broke the actual tests, (As it broke activation too)
but this was fixed later in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/76052
I wrongly assumed that PR fixed renewal too, which it didn't!
testing renewals is hard, as we need to sleep in tests.
When trying to build a VM using `nixos-build-vms` with a configuration
that doesn't evaluate, an error "at `<unknown-file>`" is usually shown.
This happens since the `build-vms.nix` creates a VM-network of
NixOS-configurations that are attr-sets or functions and don't contain
any file information. This patch manually adds the `_file`-attribute to
tell the module-system which file contained broken configuration:
```
$ cat vm.nix
{ vm.invalid-option = 1; }
$ nixos-build-vms vm.nix
error: The option `invalid-option' defined in `/home/ma27/Projects/nixpkgs/vm.nix@node-vm' does not exist.
(use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)
```
This commit:
1. Updates the path of the traefik package, so that the out output is
used.
2. Adapts the configuration settings and options to Traefik v2.
3. Formats the NixOS traefik service using nixfmt.
We already set the relevant env vars in the systemd services. That does
not help one when executing any of the executables outside a service,
e.g. when creating a new user.
we use stdenv.hostPlatform.uname.processor, which I believe is just like
`uname -p`.
Example values:
```
(import <nixpkgs> { system = "x86_64-linux"; }).stdenv.hostPlatform.uname.processor
"x86_64"
(import <nixpkgs> { system = "aarch64-linux"; }).stdenv.hostPlatform.uname.processor
aarch64
(import <nixpkgs> { system = "armv7l-linux"; }).stdenv.hostPlatform.uname.processor
"armv7l"
```
The new wording does not assume the user is upgrading.
This is because a user could be setting up a new installation on 20.03
on a server that has a 19.09 or before stateVersion!!
The new wording ensures that confusion is reduced by stating that they
do not have to care about the assumed 16→17 transition.
Then, the wording explains that they should, and how to upgrade to
version 18.
It also reviews the confusing wording about "multiple" upgrades.
* * *
The only thing we cannot really do is stop a fresh install of 17 if
there was no previous install, as it cannot be detected. That makes a
useless upgrade forced for new users with old state versions.
It is also important to state that they must set their package to
Nextcloud 18, as future upgrades to Nextcloud will not allow an uprade
from 17!
I assume future warning messages will exist specifically stating what to
do to go from 18 to 19, then 19 to 20, etc...
This allows to have multiple certificates with the same common name.
Lego uses in its internal directory the common name to name the certificate.

I've had Netdata crash on me sometimes. Rarely but more than once. And I lost days of data before I noticed.
Let's be nice and restart it on failures by default.
Also removed `pkgs.hydra-flakes` since flake-support has been merged
into master[1]. Because of that, `pkgs.hydra-unstable` is now compiled
against `pkgs.nixFlakes` and currently requires a patch since Hydra's
master doesn't compile[2] atm.

Instead of making the configuration less portable by hard coding the number of
jobs equal to the cores we can also let nix set the same number at runtime.
This prevents duplication in cross-compiled nixos machines. The
bootstrapped glibc differs from the natively compiled one, so we get
two glibc’s in the closure. To reduce closure size, just use
stdenv.cc.libc where available.
We have this bug https://github.com/elementary/gala/issues/636
when using notifications in gala. It's likely to not really be fixed
because all development is on the new notifications server.
Them removing cerbere and registering with the SessionManager
should make shutdown very fast. This was even done in plank [0]
which was the last factor outside cerbere causing this.

As discussed in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/73763, prevailing
consensus is to revert that commit. People use the hardened profile on
machines and run nix builds, and there's no good reason to use
unsandboxed builds at all unless you're in a platform that doesn't
support them.
This reverts commit 00ac71ab19.
So now we have only packages for human interaction in php.packages and
only extensions in php.extensions. With this php.packages.exts have
been merged into the same attribute set as all the other extensions to
make it flat and nice.
The nextcloud module have been updated to reflect this change as well
as the documentation.
In 7f838b4dde, we dropped systemd-udev-settle.service from display-manager.service's wants.
Unfortunately, we are doing something wrong since without it both Xorg and Wayland fail to start:
Failed to open gpu '/dev/dri/card0': GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: Operation not permitted
Until we sort this out, let's add systemd-udev-settle.service to GDM to unblock the channels.
In contrast to `.service`-units, it's not possible to declare an
`overrides.conf`, however this is done by `generateUnits` for `.nspawn`
units as well. This change breaks the build if you have two derivations
configuring one nspawn unit.
This will happen in a case like this:
``` nix
{ pkgs, ... }: {
systemd.packages = [
(pkgs.writeTextDir "etc/systemd/nspawn/container0.nspawn" ''
[Files]
Bind=/tmp
'')
];
systemd.nspawn.container0 = {
/* ... */
};
}
```
This allows you to specify the system-wide flake registry. One use is
to pin 'nixpkgs' to the Nixpkgs version used to build the system:
nix.registry.nixpkgs.flake = nixpkgs;
where 'nixpkgs' is a flake input. This ensures that commands like
$ nix run nixpkgs#hello
pull in a minimum of additional store paths.
You can also use this to redirect flakes, e.g.
nix.registry.nixpkgs.to = {
type = "github";
owner = "my-org";
repo = "my-nixpkgs";
};
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.
This windowManager and desktopManager doesn't even have
an option to use it. git history suggests to me that there's no way anyone
finds this useful anymore.

Upgrades Hydra to the latest master/flake branch. To perform this
upgrade, it's needed to do a non-trivial db-migration which provides a
massive performance-improvement[1].
The basic ideas behind multi-step upgrades of services between NixOS versions
have been gathered already[2]. For further context it's recommended to
read this first.
Basically, the following steps are needed:
* Upgrade to a non-breaking version of Hydra with the db-changes
(columns are still nullable here). If `system.stateVersion` is set to
something older than 20.03, the package will be selected
automatically, otherwise `pkgs.hydra-migration` needs to be used.
* Run `hydra-backfill-ids` on the server.
* Deploy either `pkgs.hydra-unstable` (for Hydra master) or
`pkgs.hydra-flakes` (for flakes-support) to activate the optimization.
The steps are also documented in the release-notes and in the module
using `warnings`.
`pkgs.hydra` has been removed as latest Hydra doesn't compile with
`pkgs.nixStable` and to ensure a graceful migration using the newly
introduced packages.
To verify the approach, a simple vm-test has been added which verifies
the migration steps.

After upgrading to NixOS 20.03, I've got the following warning:
nginx: [warn] could not build optimal types_hash, you should increase either types_hash_max_size: 2048 or types_hash_bucket_size: 64; ignoring types_hash_bucket_size
The documentation states that "if nginx emits the message requesting
to increase either hash max size or hash bucket size then the first
parameter should first be increased" (aka types_hash_max_size).
In 19.03, the size of mime.types was around 100 entries. In 20.03, we
are around 900 entries. This is due to ff0148d868 which makes nginx
use mailcap mime.types.
In ff0148d868, nginx configuration was modified to use mime.types
from mailcap package as it is more complete. However, there are two
places where mime.types is included in configuration. When the user
was setting `cfg.httpConfig`, the mime.types from nginx was still
used. This commit fix that by moving the common snippet in a variable
of its own and ensure it is used at both places.
The volumeID will now be in the format of:
nixos-$EDITON-$RELEASE-$ARCH
an example for the minimal image would look like:
nixos-minimal-20.09-x86-64-linux
It's impossible to move two major-versions forward when upgrading
Nextcloud. This is an issue when comming from 19.09 (using Nextcloud 16)
and trying to upgrade to 20.03 (using Nextcloud 18 by default).
This patch implements the measurements discussed in #82056 and #82353 to
improve the update process and to circumvent similar issues in the
future:
* `pkgs.nextcloud` has been removed in favor of versioned attributes
(currently `pkgs.nextcloud17` and `pkgs.nextcloud18`). With that
approach we can safely backport major-releases in the future to
simplify those upgrade-paths and we can select one of the
major-releases as default depending on the configuration (helpful to
decide whether e.g. `pkgs.nextcloud17` or `pkgs.nextcloud18` should be
used on 20.03 and `master` atm).
* If `system.stateVersion` is older than `20.03`, `nextcloud17` will be
used (which is one major-release behind v16 from 19.09). When using a
package older than the latest major-release available (currently v18),
the evaluation will cause a warning which describes the issue and
suggests next steps.
To make those package-selections easier, a new option to define the
package to be used for the service (namely
`services.nextcloud.package`) was introduced.
* If `pkgs.nextcloud` exists (e.g. due to an overlay which was used to
provide more recent Nextcloud versions on older NixOS-releases), an
evaluation error will be thrown by default: this is to make sure that
`services.nextcloud.package` doesn't use an older version by accident
after checking the state-version. If `pkgs.nextcloud` is added
manually, it needs to be declared explicitly in
`services.nextcloud.package`.
* The `nixos/nextcloud`-documentation contains a
"Maintainer information"-chapter which describes how to roll out new
Nextcloud releases and how to deal with old (and probably unsafe)
versions.
Closes #82056
Dropbear lags behind OpenSSH significantly in both support for modern
key formats like `ssh-ed25519`, let alone the recently-introduced
U2F/FIDO2-based `sk-ssh-ed25519@openssh.com` (as I found when I switched
my `authorizedKeys` over to it and promptly locked myself out of my
server's initrd SSH, breaking reboots), as well as security features
like multiprocess isolation. Using the same SSH daemon for stage-1 and
the main system ensures key formats will always remain compatible, as
well as more conveniently allowing the sharing of configuration and
host keys.
The main reason to use Dropbear over OpenSSH would be initrd space
concerns, but NixOS initrds are already large (17 MiB currently on my
server), and the size difference between the two isn't huge (the test's
initrd goes from 9.7 MiB to 12 MiB with this change). If the size is
still a problem, then it would be easy to shrink sshd down to a few
hundred kilobytes by using an initrd-specific build that uses musl and
disables things like Kerberos support.
This passes the test and works on my server, but more rigorous testing
and review from people who use initrd SSH would be appreciated!
Running the manual on a TTY is useless in the graphical ISOs and not
particularly useful in non-graphical ISOs (since you can also run
'nixos-help').
Fixes #83157.
* Removed the use of gnome-screensaver (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-flashback/issues/18)
* Flashback's menu-related environment variables are now set in the gnome3.nix module instead of gnome-panel to resolve dependency conflict.
While renaming `networking.defaultMailServer` directly to
`services.ssmtp` is shorter and probably clearer, it causes eval errors
due to the second rename (directDelivery -> enable) when using e.g. `lib.mkForce`.
For instance,
``` nix
{ lib, ... }: {
networking.defaultMailServer = {
hostName = "localhost";
directDelivery = lib.mkForce true;
domain = "example.org";
};
}
```
would break with the following (rather confusing) error:
```
error: The option value `services.ssmtp.enable' in `/home/ma27/Projects/nixpkgs/nixos/modules/programs/ssmtp.nix' is not of type `boolean'.
(use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)
