When building an image, rather than operating on a real partition,
there's no need to have sfdisk tell the kernel to reread the partition
table. This also avoids a call to sync(2), which could be very
expensive depending on what other IO is going on on the system at the time.
This adds a new `imageStream` option that can be used in conjunction
with `pkgs.dockerTools.streamLayeredImage` so that the image archive
never needs to be materialized in the `/nix/store`. This greatly
improves the disk utilization for systems that use container images
built using Nix because they only need to store image layers instead of
the full image. Additionally, when deploying the new system and only
new layers need to be built/copied.
This splits a dev output to make the default output not depend on any
build dependencies anymore. This also avoids removing references from
pgxs' Makefile this way, which should, at least theoretically, be good
to build extensions via pgxs, making sure they use the same tooling.
ecpg is the "embedded SQL C preprocessor", which is certainly a dev
tool.
Most important, for closure size anyway, is to move pg_config to the dev
output, since it retains paths to all the other outputs.
The only thing with references to the dev output remaining is then the
postgres binary itself. It contains all the output paths, because it
shows those in the pg_config system view. There is no other way than
to nuke those references to avoid circular dependencies between outputs
- and blowing up closure size again.
After upgrading to 3.5.0 we noticed, that registering would redirect to
the login page and not work at all. At the same time the admin user was
unable to access its user settings.
This issue could be tracked back to the template cache, that must be
invalidated between release upgrades.
This should fix errors where /etc is reported to be busy and thus cannot
be unmounted.
Another solution we can consider if this doesn't work out as we expect
is to forcefully unmount /etc.
I've observed that sometimes the overlay mount unit does not get started
when using wantedBy. requiredBy makes this relationship stricter and if
necessary will restart the initrd-fs.target and thus ensure that when
this target is reached /etc has alredy been mounted. This is in line
with the description of initrd-fs.target in systemd.special:
> Thus, once this target is reached the /sysroot/ hierarchy is fully set up
