Yama is a LSM which restricts debugging. This prevents processes from
snooping on another. It can be easily disabled with sysctl.
This was initially included in #14392 and disabled by default by
86721a5f78.
This has been part of the hardened configuration, but many other distros
ship this for quite some time (Ubuntu for about ten years), so I'd say
it might make sense to enable this per default.
- Remove lots of declared options that were not used outside of being
included in settings. These should now be used through the freeform
module.
- Deprecate `cfg.workDir`, in favor of using systemds `StateDirectory`
- Use sqlite as default database.

I noticed that openvpn3 is been clobbering my `/etc/resolv.conf` file. I
dug around a bit, and it turns out that upstream actually does have
support for systemd-resolved. I think it makes sense for us to
automatically enable that feature if the system is configured to use
systemd-resolved.
I opted to not change the default behavior of `pkgs.openvpn3`, but can
easily be convinced to change that if folks think I should.
[Motivation](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/257817#issuecomment-1741705042):
- Having all the XKB options in the same attribute set clarifies their
relation better than using a common option name prefix ("xkb").
- `services.xserver.layout` is an XKB option, but this is not obvious
from its name. Putting it with the other XKB options clarifies this.

- run conf-check iff keyFiles == [] (like in 23.05; this was my bug)
- support extraConfig + keyFiles
- but warning will still be shown if extraConfig is used,
and it might be slightly confusing
Specifically the following plugins:
fusuma-plugin-appmatcher
fusuma-plugin-keypress
fusuma-plugin-sendkey
fusuma-plugin-tap
fusuma-plugin-wmctrl
I've not enabled the other plugins available on rubygems for the
following reasons:
* remap : seems niche functionality and requires further configuration
to grant the user access permissions to event devices
* thumbsense : pulls in remap (see above)
* touchscreen : I've no way of testing. Note: enabling didn't appear
to cause any problems.
Ideally the plugin functionality would be made available as separate
pkgs, but that would require patching Fusuma to search outside of the
Gem directory. Enabling this subset of packages for what appears to be
widely useful functionality seems a good option.
A further bug to our strange multi-user.target depending on
network-online.target issue is that systemd recently changed the
behaviour of systemd-networkd-wait-online to no longer consider the
absence of interfaces with RequiredForOnline to be sufficient to be
online: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/27825
On the advice of the systemd developers
(https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/29388), this commit changes
the configuration of systemd-networkd-wait-online to pass --any by
default, and lets the default DHCP interfaces be RequiredForOnline
as they would be by default if the option is omitted.
It is plausible that systemd-networkd-wait-online may still fail if
there are no interfaces at all. However, that probably cannot be
avoided.
Allow the user to disable overriding the fileSystems option with
virtualisation.fileSystems by setting
`virtualisation.fileSystems = lib.mkForce { };`.
With this change you can use the qemu-vm module to boot from an external
image that was not produced by the qemu-vm module itself. The user can
now re-use the modularly set fileSystems option instead of having to
reproduce it in virtualisation.fileSystems.
and remove nano from environment.defaultPackages. In addition also cleanup the file in general.

CoreDNS has support for plugins that are added at compile time. This
exposes an argument `externalPlugins` that will build coredns with
the specified plugins.
Example:
```
coredns-fanout = pkgs.coredns.override {
externalPlugins = [
{name = "fanout"; repo = "github.com/networkservicemesh/fanout"; version = "v1.9.1";}
];
vendorHash = "<SRI hash>";
};
```
To maintain backwards compatibility, this can't be changed in the Nix language.
We can however ensure that the version Nixpkgs has the more intuitive behavior.
nix-prefetch-git is either run as part of a build, usually sandboxed,
or outside a build, unsandboxed, to prefetch something that will later
be used in a build. It's important that the latter use produces
hashes that can be reproduced by the former.
One way that they can differ is if the user's git config does
something that changes the result of git clone. I ran into this,
because my global git config automatically enables git-lfs, whereas
nix-prefetch-git otherwise only uses git-lfs if specifically
requested. This led to very confusing hash mismatches.
The default just recently changed in 23.11. Users that had
swraid enabled implicitly by NixOS in previous releases got surprised
by warnings even though they do not actually use software RAID.

Clarify that the monochrome font is not included, per #221181.
The new name is also coherent with the name of the font,
according to `fontconfig`: Noto Color Emoji.
For NVLink topology systems we need fabricmanager. Fabricmanager itself is
dependent on the datacenter driver set and not the regular x11 ones, it is also
tightly tied to the driver version. Furhtermore the current cudaPackages
defaults to version 11.8, which corresponds to the 520 datacenter drivers.
Future improvement should be to switch the main nvidia datacenter driver version
on the `config.cudaVersion` since these are well known from:
> https://docs.nvidia.com/deploy/cuda-compatibility/index.html#use-the-right-compat-package
This adds nixos configuration options `hardware.nvidia.datacenter.enable` and
`hardware.nvidia.datacenter.settings` (the settings configure fabricmanager)
Other interesting external links related to this commit are:
* Fabricmanager download site:
- https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/redist/fabricmanager/linux-x86_64/
* Data Center drivers:
- https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/193711/en-us/
Implementation specific details:
* Fabricmanager is added as a passthru package, similar to settings and
presistenced.
* Adds `use{Settings,Persistenced,Fabricmanager}` with defaults to preserve x11
expressions.
* Utilizes mkMerge to split the `hardware.nvidia` module into three comment
delimited sections:
1. Common
2. X11/xorg
3. Data Center
* Uses asserts to make the configurations mutualy exclusive.
Notes:
* Data Center Drivers are `x86_64` only.
* Reuses the `nvidia_x11` attribute in nixpkgs on enable, e.g. doesn't change it
to `nvidia_driver` and sets that to either `nvidia_x11` or `nvidia_dc`.
* Should have a helper function which is switched on `config.cudaVersion` like
`selectHighestVersion` but rather `selectCudaCompatibleVersion`.
My system does not use `bcache` and I sould prever my `systemPackages`
not to have bcache tools.
The change does not change the default but proviced usual `enable` knob.

fixes#232505
Implements the new option `security.acme.maxConcurrentRenewals` to limit
the number of certificate generation (or renewal) jobs that can run in
parallel. This avoids overloading the system resources with many
certificates or running into acme registry rate limits and network
timeouts.
Architecture considerations:
- simplicity, lightweight: Concerns have been voiced about making this
already rather complex module even more convoluted. Additionally,
locking solutions shall not significantly increase performance and
footprint of individual job runs.
To accomodate these concerns, this solution is implemented purely in
Nix, bash, and using the light-weight `flock` util. To reduce
complexity, jobs are already assigned their lockfile slot at system
build time instead of dynamic locking and retrying. This comes at the
cost of not always maxing out the permitted concurrency at runtime.
- no stale locks: Limiting concurrency via locking mechanism is usually
approached with semaphores. Unfortunately, both SysV as well as
POSIX-Semaphores are *not* released when the process currently locking
them is SIGKILLed. This poses the danger of stale locks staying around
and certificate renewal being blocked from running altogether.
`flock` locks though are released when the process holding the file
descriptor of the lock file is KILLed or terminated.
- lockfile generation: Lock files could either be created at build time
in the Nix store or at script runtime in a idempotent manner.
While the latter would be simpler to achieve, we might exceed the number
of permitted concurrent runs during a system switch: Already running
jobs are still locked on the existing lock files, while jobs started
after the system switch will acquire locks on freshly created files,
not being blocked by the still running services.
For this reason, locks are generated and managed at runtime in the
shared state directory `/var/lib/locks/`.

This avoids the possible confusion with `passwordFile` being the file

Fixes issue #165858.
This patch packages mu4e as an Emacs lisp package based on the mu4e
output of the multiple-output package mu, which makes mu4e a good
citizen of Emacs lisp packages in two aspects.
First, mu4e now utilizes the Emacs lisp package infrastructure in
Nixpkgs. This allows users who want to do AOT native compilation for
non-default Emacs variants[0] to build only mu4e itself instead of the
whole mu package[1].
Second, mu4e now conforms to the Emacs builtin package manager[2].
Without this patch, mu4e autoloaded commands do not work
out-of-the-box[3] because its directory is added to load-path by
site-start.el after the initialization of package-directory-list,
which causes package-activate-all to not load mu4e-autoloads.el. This
patch fixes this issue when mu4e is installed to Emacs using the
withPackages wrapper[4].
[0]: such as emacs-pgtk
[1]: mu.override { emacs = emacs-pgtk; }
[2]: package.el
[3]: either (require 'mu4e) or (require 'mu4e-autoloads) is needed to
be called before an autoloaded command is called
[4]: emacs-pgtk.pkgs.withPackages (epkgs: [ epkgs.mu4e ])
The free version of Aseprite has a maintained fork, LibreSprite which is
already packaged in nixpkgs. The only really useful version of Aseprite
vs LibreSprite is the unfree version, and the free version will never
receive updates.
