When running with a xfs root partition and using systemd for stage 1
initrd, I noticed in journalctl that fsck.xfs always failed to execute.
The issue is that it is trying to use the below sh interpreter:
`#!/nix/store/xy4jjgw87sbgwylm5kn047d9gkbhsr9x-bash-5.2p37/bin/sh -f`
but the file does not exist in the initrd image.
/nix/store/xy4jjgw87sbgwylm5kn047d9gkbhsr9x-bash-5.2p37/bin/**bash**
exists since it gets pulled in by some package, but the rest of the
directory is not being pulled in.
boot/systemd/initrd.nix mentions that xfs_progs references the sh
interpreter and seems to explicitly try to address this by adding
${pkgs.bash}/bin to storePaths, but that's the wrong bash package.
Update the `storePaths` value to pull in `pkgs.bashNonInteractive`
rather than `pkgs.bash`.
`user-.slice` does not seem to exist, and the config we generate for it is
rejected by systemd (see `systemctl status user-.slice`).
I suppose that what was really intended here, was to configure
`user.slice`, which is the one that is documented in `man systemd.special`.

The enable attribute of `boot.initrd.systemd.contents.<name>` was
ignored for building initrd storePaths. This resulted in building
derivations for the initrd even if it was disabled.

We currently bypass systemd's switch-root logic by premounting
/sysroot/run. Make sure to propagate its sub-mounts with the recursive
flag, in accordance with the default switch-root logic.
This is required for creds at /run/credentials to survive the transition
from initrd -> host.
I was confused why I could not get an emergency access console despite setting systemd.emergencyMode=true.
Turns out there is another similar option `boot.initrd.systemd.emergencyAccess` that I should have used.
This is confusing and this change should make it more clear vie the docs of both these options.
Containers did not have *systemd-journald-audit.socket* in *additionalUpstreamSystemUnits*, which meant that the unit was not provided.
However the *wantedBy* was added without any additional check, therefore creating an empty unit with just the *WantedBy* on *boot.isContainer* machines.
This caused `systemd-analyze verify` to fail:
```text
systemd-journald-audit.socket: Unit has no Listen setting (ListenStream=, ListenDatagram=, ListenFIFO=, ...). Refusing.
systemd-journald-audit.socket: Cannot add dependency job, ignoring: Unit systemd-journald-audit.socket has a bad unit file setting.
systemd-journald-audit.socket: Cannot add dependency job, ignoring: Unit systemd-journald-audit.socket has a bad unit file setting.
```
The upstream unit already contains the following, which should make it safe to include regardless:
```ini
[Unit]
ConditionSecurity=audit
ConditionCapability=CAP_AUDIT_READ
```

systemd-repart can be configured to not automatically issue BLKDISCARD commands
to the underlying hardware.
This PR exposes this option in the repart module.
The systemd.tmpfiles.settings.<name>.<path>.<type>.argument option may
contain arbitrary strings. This could allow intentional or unintentional
introduction of new configuration lines.
The argument field cannot be quoted, C‐style \xNN escape sequences are
however permitted. By escaping whitespace and newline characters, the
issue can be mitigated.
Format all Nix files using the officially approved formatter,
making the CI check introduced in the previous commit succeed:
nix-build ci -A fmt.check
This is the next step of the of the [implementation](https://github.com/NixOS/nixfmt/issues/153)
of the accepted [RFC 166](https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/166).
This commit will lead to merge conflicts for a number of PRs,
up to an estimated ~1100 (~33%) among the PRs with activity in the past 2
months, but that should be lower than what it would be without the previous
[partial treewide format](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/322537).
Merge conflicts caused by this commit can now automatically be resolved while rebasing using the
[auto-rebase script](8616af08d9/maintainers/scripts/auto-rebase).
If you run into any problems regarding any of this, please reach out to the
[formatting team](https://nixos.org/community/teams/formatting/) by
pinging @NixOS/nix-formatting.
Some upstream systemd units are conditionally installed into the systemd
output, so we must make sure the feature that enables their installation
is enabled on our side prior to trying to use them.
Closes#381822
Apparently, I swapped `path` and `tmpfiles-type` in
2be50b1efe. Sorry about that 🫠
Also giving
`systemd.tmpfiles.settings.<config-name>.<path>.<tmpfiles-type>.type` a
better default in the manual than `‹name›`, i.e. `‹tmpfiles-type›` so
that it corresponds to the placeholders in the attribute path.
We default this option to null ; which is different
from upstream which defaults this to true.
Defaulting this to true leads to log-spam in /dev/kmesg
and thus in our opinion is a bad default https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/15324
Prior to this change a service failure would occur when this tmpfiles
service did not finish fast enough and receive a SIGTERM from systemd.
Additionally, `initrd-nixos-activation` is already ordered with
`After=initrd-switch-root.target`.
By default, systemd-repart refuses to act on empty disk devices, i.e.
those without any existing partition table for safety reasons.
This behaviour can be customized via the `--empty` flag, which we now
expose via the module system. This makes to partition empty disks
on first boot.
After final improvements to the official formatter implementation,
this commit now performs the first treewide reformat of Nix files using it.
This is part of the implementation of RFC 166.
Only "inactive" files are reformatted, meaning only files that
aren't being touched by any PR with activity in the past 2 months.
This is to avoid conflicts for PRs that might soon be merged.
Later we can do a full treewide reformat to get the rest,
which should not cause as many conflicts.
A CI check has already been running for some time to ensure that new and
already-formatted files are formatted, so the files being reformatted here
should also stay formatted.
This commit was automatically created and can be verified using
nix-build https://github.com/infinisil/treewide-nixpkgs-reformat-script/archive/a08b3a4d199c6124ac5b36a889d9099b4383463f.tar.gz \

Now it's placed between initrd-switch-root.target and
initrd-switch-root.service, meaning it is truly the last thing to
happen before switch-root, as it should be.
The perl snippet as been added years ago. I assume the intention was to
remove the `## file: iwlwifi.conf` section up to the next `## file:`,
but as there is no file following, the snippet currently does nothing.
We should be fine to remove it.
