Move replaceRuntimeDependencies to the replaceDependencies namespace,
where the structure is more consistent with the replaceDependencies
function. This makes space for wiring up cutoffPackages as an option
too.
By default, the system's initrd is excluded. The replacement process does not
work properly anyway due to the structure of the initrd (the files being copied
into it, and it being compressed). In the worst case (which has been observed
to actually occur in practice), a store path makes it into the incompressible
parts of the archive, checksums are broken, and the system won't boot.
Instead of iterating over all replacements and applying them one by one,
use the newly introduced replaceDependencies function to apply them all
at once for replaceRuntimeDependencies. The advantages are twofold in
case there are multiple replacements:
* Performance is significantly improved, because there is only one pass
over the closure to be made.
* Correctness is improved, because replaceDependencies also replaces
dependencies of the replacements themselves if applicable.

and turn it in to a list.
The current setting of system.forbiddenDependenciesRegex is a string, meaning only one such regex as any additional setting would result in conflicts.
As maintainers have already started using this setting eg. in profiles, it would be good if this setting would accept a list of regex to allow the end
user to make use of it in addition to package maintainers.
these changes were generated with nixq 0.0.2, by running
nixq ">> lib.mdDoc[remove] Argument[keep]" --batchmode nixos/**.nix
nixq ">> mdDoc[remove] Argument[keep]" --batchmode nixos/**.nix
nixq ">> Inherit >> mdDoc[remove]" --batchmode nixos/**.nix
two mentions of the mdDoc function remain in nixos/, both of which
are inside of comments.
Since lib.mdDoc is already defined as just id, this commit is a no-op as
far as Nix (and the built manual) is concerned.
This avoids creating a build-time reference on `boot.kernelParams` if
the configuration does not use a kernel, i.e., `boot.kernel.enable` is
set to `false`.
These variables were previously used by the activation script
build commands, but are now embedded into those commands for
to improve reusability for an upcoming addition.
This patch fixes "Argument list too long" build failure when passing a
list of store paths to system.extraDependencies that exceeds Linux'
MAX_ARG_STRLEN limit of 128 KiB. With the shortest possible derivation
names (one byte), the 128 KiB limit is equivalent to about 2850
derivations. With longer derivations names, the limit is hit earlier.
Fix this restriction.
Note that this does not add to the `forbiddenDependenciesRegex`
code because that code check should be unaffected as it only checks
output dependencies, not build dependencies.
Build deps are added after that check, if those are enabled in the
first place.
This removes the feature preview warning, enable by default bootspec,
adds a validation flag to prevent Go to go into build-time closure.
This will break all downstream users of bootspec as those changes are
not backward-compatible.
This option allows adding the build closure of the system to its
runtime closure, enabling fully-offline rebuilds (as long as no new
packages are added).
most of the screen tags used in option docs are actually listings of
some sort. nsd had a notable exception where its screen usage was pretty
much a raw markdown block that made most sense to convert into docbook lists.
Call dbus by using `$cur_systemd/busctl --json=...` and core modules
JSON::PP and IPC::Cmd to slim down dependencies for baseSystem.
perlPackages.NetDBus pulls in quite a few other dependencies, like
XML::Twig, LWP, and HTTP::Daemon. These are not really neccecary for
s-t-c, and some of them have caused issues particularly with cross
builds after updates to perlPackages.
our xslt already replaces double line breaks with a paragraph close and
reopen. not using explicit para tags lets nix-doc-munge convert more
descriptions losslessly.
only whitespace changes to generated documents, except for two
strongswan options gaining paragraph two breaks they arguably should've
had anyway.
This is accomplished by comparing the hashes that the unit files
contain. By filtering for a special key `X-Reload-Triggers` in the
`[Unit]` section, we can differentiate between reloads and restarts.
Since activation scripts can request reloads of units as well, more
checking of this behaviour is implemented. If a unit is to be restarted,
it's never reloaded as well which would make no sense.
Also removes a useless subroutine and perl dependencies that are
nowadays handled by the propagated build inputs feature of
`perl.withPackages`.
The `nix.*` options, apart from options for setting up the
daemon itself, currently provide a lot of setting mappings
for the Nix daemon configuration. The scope of the mapping yields
convience, but the line where an option is considered essential
is blurry. For instance, the `extra-sandbox-paths` mapping is
provided without its primary consumer, and the corresponding
`sandbox-paths` option is also not mapped.
The current system increases the maintenance burden as maintainers have to
closely follow upstream changes. In this case, there are two state versions
of Nix which have to be maintained collectively, with different options
avaliable.
This commit aims to following the standard outlined in RFC 42[1] to
implement a structural setting pattern. The Nix configuration is encoded
at its core as key-value pairs which maps nicely to attribute sets, making
it feasible to express in the Nix language itself. Some existing options are
kept such as `buildMachines` and `registry` which present a simplified interface
to managing the respective settings. The interface is exposed as `nix.settings`.
Legacy configurations are mapped to their corresponding options under `nix.settings`
for backwards compatibility.
Various options settings in other nixos modules and relevant tests have been
updated to use structural setting for consistency.
The generation and validation of the configration file has been modified to
use `writeTextFile` instead of `runCommand` for clarity. Note that validation
is now mandatory as strict checking of options has been pushed down to the
derivation level due to freeformType consuming unmatched options. Furthermore,
validation can not occur when cross-compiling due to current limitations.
A new option `publicHostKey` was added to the `buildMachines`
submodule corresponding to the base64 encoded public host key settings
exposed in the builder syntax. The build machine generation was subsequently
rewritten to use `concatStringsSep` for better performance by grouping
concatenations.
