With the the Systemd-based initrd, systemd-journald is doing the logging.
One of Journald's Trusted Journal Fields is `_HOSTNAME` (systemd.journal-fields(7)).
Without explicitly setting the hostname via this file or the kernel cmdline, `localhost` is used and captured in the journal.
As a result, a boot's log references multiple hostnames.
With centralized log collection this breaks filtering (more so when logs from multiple Systemd-based initrds are streaming in simultaneously.
Fixes#318907.
This allows us to set things like dependencies in a way that we can
catch typos at eval time.
So instead of
```nix
systemd.services.foo.wants = [ "bar.service" ];
```
we can write
```nix
systemd.services.foo.wants = [ config.systemd.services.bar.name ];
```
which will throw an error if no such service has been defined.
Not all cases can be done like this (eg template services), but in a lot
of cases this will allow to avoid typos.
There is a matching option on the unit option
(`systemd.units."foo.service".name`) as well.
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.
Before there was a kernel modules path named kernel-modules which then got turned
into linux-X.X.XX-modules-shrunk. Now the unshrunk package is called linux-X.X.XX-modules
and gets turned into X.X.XX-modules-shrunk.
Removed patches:
- 0007-Fix-hwdb-paths.patch
The directory we want seems to already be included in the list. Is there
a reason why we want to restrict it further?
- 0010-build-don-t-create-statedir-and-don-t-touch-prefixdi.patch
This patch has little to do with how the meson.build file looks now. The
new patch 0017 is the successor to this one.
- 0015-pkg-config-derive-prefix-from-prefix.patch
This is fixed upstream. We don't need this anymore.
Since 1557027, makeModulesClosure doesn't create a lib/firmware
directory if there is no firmware in the initramfs. If this happens,
systemd-stage-1 fails to build.
/lib only contains /lib/modules and /lib/firmware, both of while are
from modulesClosure. Therefore, we can just add the entirety of
${modulesClosure}/lib to the initramfs to allow for the possibility that
lib/firmware doesn't exist. This also brings systemd-stage-1 in line
with the traditional stage-1.
Adds a postResumeCommands option to the initramfs to allow inserting
code to execute after the device has attempted to resume, and before
filesystems are mounted. This allows to inject code for operations like
wiping the rootfs on boot; if those were instead put in
postDeviceCommands, on a hibernated device, they would execute before
the device resumes from hibernation.
This is an early preparation for systemd v254 which causes some patch reflows
and EFI-related cleanups to their new build system with elf2efi, requiring pyelftools
as a Python packge.
`systemd-growfs@.service` and `systemd-growfs-root.service` became real units since:
50072ccf1b
we need to add them to the nixos module so growfs works again
systemd now requires the /tmp mount point in the initrd cpio archive
since https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/25723
setting `"/tmp/.keep".text` will create the directory.
this fixes a boot failure:
```
(sd-gens): Failed to overmount /tmp/: No such file or directory
```
Being able to override `boot.initrd.systemd.initrdBin` with `boot.initrd.systemd.extraBin` is a desirable behavior, so this PR changes the `ln -s` command to `ln -sf` to force link even if the file already exists.
the way these are written they introduce lots of whitespace in each
line, which will cause those lines to render as code when converted to
markdown. override the whole description instead.
Now the tool will only strip binaries if a strip executable is passed
via the STRIP environment variable. This is exposed via the strip
option for makeInitrdNG and the NixOS option boot.initrd.systemd.strip.
The ConditionFileNotEmpty override patch wasn't correct for stage1, which
does have the modules in /lib. So, remove the patch and set
the right path with overrides in the final system.
Also, make sure systemd-tmpfiles-setup-dev is pulled in to create
all the necessary symlinks.
`boot.initrd.systemd.emergencyAccess` expects passwd(5) formatted
strings, hence `singleLineStr` is too broad.
Use the same type as `users.users.*.hashedPassword` to ensure
consistency across all options where password hashes are used.
From `modules/config/users-groups.nix`:
```
hashedPassword = mkOption {
type = with types; nullOr (passwdEntry str);
...
};
```
We can make the growfs and makefs binaries conditional because we know
if we'll need them. Also move the cryptsetup generator to the luksroot
so it's not included when not needed.
We drop some generators altogether: systemd-getty-generator because we
don't have getty anyway in stage 1, systemd-system-update-generator
because we don't use that logic in NixOS and
systemd-veritysetup-generator because stage 1 has no veritysetup support
(yet) and if it had, we still wouldn't want to include the generator
unconditionally.
- Fix the name of the env
- Add the correct kmod to the initrd
- Add `less` to make journalctl usable
- Fix SYSTEMD_SULOGIN_FORCe for rescue.target
- Add some missing binaries
