There's no reason to do this in initrd. Partitions can be resized online.
We just have to make sure it happens before we resize the file system.
This also makes grow-partition work with systemd-initrd
This reverts commit 80665d606a.
Parsing the package version broke our systemd-boot builder test.
i.e. it won't be able to parse systemd-boot efi binaries coming from
ubuntu
We no longer use the faulty systemd-boot version so this code should no
longer be needed.
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.
This updates the documentation for the services.journald.rateLimitBurst
option, clarifying that the journal size limit may very well default to
a lot less than 4GB with small disks or disk with not much free space
(eg: virtualized machines)
Fixes#228141, which describes an issue where detaching Yubikey during the boot process
causes cryptsetup to write empty passphrase instead of the challenge-response salt stored
on the boot drive.
This fixes notably the fact that /dev/zfs was not usable anymore as a user,
and potentially other things.
Tracked in systemd upstream under issue number 28653, 28765.
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.
Historically, we allowed downgrade of DNSSEC, but some folks argue
this may decrease actually the security posture to do opportunistic DNSSEC.
In addition, the current implementation of (opportunistic) DNSSEC validation
is broken against "in the wild" servers which are usually slightly non-compliant.
systemd upstream recommended to me (in personal communication surrounding
the All Systems Go 2023 conference) to disable DNSSEC validation until
they work on it in a significant capacity, ideally, by next year.

RequiredForOnline takes a boolean or a minimum operational state and an
optional maximum operational state. In the latter case, range values are
separated with colon.
Underneath, systemd-networkd’s reload is just `networkctl reload`. Per
`man networkctl`, calling `reload` is expected to fully handle new,
modified, and removed .network files, but it only handles *new* .netdev
files. For simplicity, assume .network -> reload and .netdev -> restart.
It’s desirable to perform reload instead of restart, as restart has the
potential to bring down interfaces, resulting in a loss of network
connectivity.
Just like with system-wide tmpfiles, call `systemd-tmpfiles --create
--remove` for users during activation. This fixes an issue where new
entries in a user's tmpfiles are not reflected after activation, only at
boot when the user service systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service runs or only
after running systemd-tmpfiles manually.
Before this commit there was no way to access (boot into) specialisation of previous generations from grub,even tho they are there.
This commit will add grub submenu for each generation if the generation has any specialisation.
Which will allow you to boot into them.

We should sometimes restart the units rather than reloading them so the
changes are actually applied. / and /nix are explicitly excluded because
there was some very old issue where these were unmounted. I don't think
this will affect many people since most people use fstab mounts instead
but I plan to adapt this behavior for fstab mounts as well in the future
(once I wrote a test for the fstab thingies).
When I boot there's a warning `stage-2-init: install: cannot change permissions of '/etc/nixos': No such file or directory`
because my /etc/nixos is a symlink to $HOME/dotfiles.
```
/etc/nixos -> /home/artturin/dotfiles
```
These lines were added in 56b4653904
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`.
There is only other `with` with a somewhat broad scope, `with pkgs`, but
it's used in a place where it would become awkward to change out. And
anyway its scope is rather limited still.
With a limited testing of all packaged GRUB 2 themes (pkgs.nixos-grub2-theme)
this is tested to work.
Without this change, the theme loading will error out (waiting for a key press).
With this change, the theme loads and works as expected.
The intent was to not pass the flag when installing as removable. In
reality there is a third case, where you may not want to touch EFI
variables, and not want to install as removable.
In that case, it would install to the generic \EFI\grub\grubx64.efi,
which is not a good choice in any cases. The operating system should
"own" their path under \EFI\ to be a good citizen [citation needed].
With this change, there can be only two paths GRUB can be installed to:
- \EFI\NixOS-boot\grubx64.efi
- \EFI\BOOT\bootx64.efi
This removes the surprising behaviour where GRUB may be installed to a
different location only because we configured NixOS not to touch EFI
variables.
It may be necessary under some configurations to install GRUB without
touching EFI variables, but to the NixOS-owned location.
This commit updates the binfmt magic-patterns using
f5e6786de4/scripts/qemu-binfmt-conf.sh
The patterns prior to this commit did not understand the difference
between mips32-*-* (32-bit void*,int) and mips64-*-*abin32 (32-bit
void*, 64-bit int). This commit corrects that.
In some setups, and especially with sytemd-networkd becoming more widely
used, networking.useDHCP is set to false. Despite this, it may be useful
to have dhcp in the initramfs.

Example 10. of man page of systemd.network(5) shows:
```
Example 10. MacVTap
This brings up a network interface "macvtap-test" and attaches it to "enp0s25".
# /usr/lib/systemd/network/25-macvtap.network
[Match]
Name=enp0s25
[Network]
MACVTAP=macvtap-test
```
Which is a MACVTAP example and is currently unsupported in NixOS.
This is useful for people using "modern" technologies with virtual machines.
The whole option set was recommended against since mid-2019, and never
worked with the Raspberry Pi 4 family of devices.
We should have deprecated it in early 2020 for removal by 2021. At the
time I did not feel confident in making such a decision, and never
ended-up getting around to it.
The ***only*** supported-by-NixOS boot methods for AArch64 are
standards-based boot methods, namely UEFI or the pragmatically
almost-standard extlinux-compatible for U-Boot.
You can quote me on that.
According to networkd netdev's manpage:
```
Independent=
Takes a boolean. When true, the vxlan interface is created without any underlying network interface. Defaults to false, which means that a .network
file that requests this VXLAN interface using VXLAN= is required for the VXLAN to be created.
```
is a valid option for [VXLAN] section.
According to systemd.netdev manpage:
```
MACAddress=
Specifies the MAC address to use for the device, or takes the special value "none". When "none", systemd-networkd does not request the MAC address for
the device, and the kernel will assign a random MAC address. For "tun", "tap", or "l2tp" devices, the MACAddress= setting in the [NetDev] section is
not supported and will be ignored. Please specify it in the [Link] section of the corresponding systemd.network(5) file. If this option is not set,
"vlan" device inherits the MAC address of the master interface. For other kind of netdevs, if this option is not set, then the MAC address is
generated based on the interface name and the machine-id(5).
Note, even if "none" is specified, systemd-udevd will assign the persistent MAC address for the device, as 99-default.link has
MACAddressPolicy=persistent. So, it is also necessary to create a custom .link file for the device, if the MAC address assignment is not desired.
```
Therefore, `none` is an acceptable value.
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.
Without this change, GRUB installation on non-PC systems (such as
aarch64-linux) only works if boot.loader.grub.devices is set to exactly
`["nodev"]`. If boot.loader.grub.devices was any other value (including
the default `[]`), users got the error:
Died at /nix/store/an9ngv2vg95bdcy0ifsxlbkasprm4dcw-install-grub.pl line 586.
install-grub.pl verifies that if both $grub and $grubEfi are set, then
$grubTarget (e.g. i386-pc) and $grubTargetEfi (e.g. x86_64-efi) must
both be set, or the script will `die`. On non-PC systems, $grubTarget
is "".
When boot.loader.grub.devices is ["nodev"], $grub is set to null,
disabling non-EFI installation. But if a user has devices set for an
x86_64 config, or is using only mirroredBoots without setting devices,
they will hit this `die`.
This change sets $grub to "" if $grubTarget is "".
This helps with understanding the code.
We might make this not depend on environment variables later.
systemBuilderArgs is a form of global state, which isn't helpful.
This essentially backports
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/27791. `systemd-networkd.service`
is sent the `SIGTERM` signal, but it is not required to be stopped
before `initrd-switch-root.target` is reached, despite the use of
`systemctl isolate initrd-switch-root.target`. This is because when
there is no ordering at all between two units, and a transaction stops
one and starts the other, the two operations can happen
simultaneously. This means the service could still be running when
`switch-root` actually occurs. Then, stage 2 systemd will see the
service still running and decide it doesn't need to add a start
operation for it to its initial transaction. Finally, the service
exits, but only after it's already too late. If, however, there is any
ordering at all between a stopping unit and a starting unit, then the
stop operation will be done first. This way, we ensure that the
service is properly exited before doing `switch-root`.
This is something to keep in mind going forward. There may be other
services that need this treatment. These `before` and `conflicts`
definitions are the correct way to ensure a unit is actually stopped
before you reach initrd-switch-root
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.
it is now possible to supply a stratis pool uuid
for every filesystem, and if that filesystem
is required for boot, the relevant pool will be
started in the initramfs.
Enable using an erofs filesystem as one of the filesystems needed to
boot the system. This is useful for example in image based deployments
where the Nix store is mounted read only.
[erofs](https://docs.kernel.org/filesystems/erofs.html) offers multiple
benefits over older filesystems like squashfs. Skip fsck.erofs because
it is still experimental.
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.
Store the definition files in the initrd instead of reading them from
the Nix store in /sysroot.
This way, the initrd has to be re-generated every time the definition
files change. When the path to the defintion files instead of the
definition files themselves are embedded in the initrd, however, the
initrd also has to be re-generated every time. In this regard, this
change does not improve the status quo.
However, now systemd-repart also works reliable when the Nix store is
mounted separately from the root partition.
This change also enables new use-cases like creating partitions
necessary to boot the system. However, by default, the root partition
cannot be created on first boot because the systemd-repart service
requires a /sysroot to be mounted. Otherwise, systemd-repart cannot
determine the device to operate on.
Since v253, systemd-repart tries to create temporary directories in
/var/tmp. However, this directory doesn't exist in the initrd. This
commit adds an enviroment variable to re-use the existing /tmp directory
instead of /var/tmp.
When `nixpkgs.hostPlatform` != `nixpkgs.buildPlatform`, building the
top-level attribute fails since the bootspec portion of the system
builder tries to reference the host platform's `jq`. Change this to
reference the build platform's `jq`.
The `B` in bridge should be capitalized.
It currently leads to an evuluation error:
```

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.

https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/114552 (profile name with
special characters), all OSError have been ignored while only the OSError
with errno 22 (invalid argument) could has been ignored.
The drawback of ignoring all OSError is that the "No space left on
device" error is also ignored. When the /boot doesn't have enough
available disk space, the switch-to-configuration script succeeds
while the boot menu has not been updated: the user thinks it's system
has been updated, but on the next reboot it is actually rollbacked.
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).

`systemd-growfs@.service` and `systemd-growfs-root.service` became real units since:

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.

```

6b9583e5e1.
Ideally, we shouldn't cause friction for users that bump `stateVersion`,
and I'd consider having to switch and/or manually hardcode a UID/GID
to supress the warning friction. I think it'd be more beneficial to, in
this rare case of an ID being missed, just let it be until more
discussion happens surrounding this overall issue.
See https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/217785 for more context.
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.
{manpage} already exapnds to a link but akkoma wants to link to
a specific setting. split the mention for clarity.
networkd just straight up duplicated what {manpage} generates anyway, so
that link can go away completely.
Since this feature's inception, we've compiled a binary that uses OpenSSL
to perform PBKDF-SHA512 during the extra-utils build. In addition to this
being inefficient, it broke as of 6ea1a2a1be,
which switched the extra-utils derivation to use stdenvNoCC.
For now, I think the path of least resistence is to move the pbkdf-sha512
build to its own derivation, to fix the breakage, as well as improving
the efficiency of the extra-utils build.
(I do believe that at some point, we should revisit this binary -- perhaps
rewriting it -- as Clang even just on its default settings emits more
warnings than you'd want to see in a security-related codebase when
compiling it.)
We shouldn't be creating a systemd.services.systemd-binfmt value when
the upstream unit isn't being pulled in, because it results in a
service unit file with no ExecStart line
this converts meta.doc into an md pointer, not an xml pointer. since we
no longer need xml for manual chapters we can also remove support for
manual chapters from md-to-db.sh
since pandoc converts smart quotes to docbook quote elements and our
nixos-render-docs does not we lose this distinction in the rendered
output. that's probably not that bad, our stylesheet didn't make use of
this anyway (and pre-23.05 versions of the chapters didn't use quote
elements either).
also updates the nixpkgs manual to clarify that option docs support all
extensions (although it doesn't support headings at all, so heading
anchors don't work by extension).
Previously, secrets were named according to the initrd they were
associated with. This created a problem: If secrets were changed whilst
the initrd remained the same, there were two versions of the secrets
with one initrd. The result was that only one version of the secrets would
by recorded into the /boot partition and get used. AFAICT this would
only be the oldest version of the secrets for the given initrd version.
This manifests as #114594, which I found frustrating while trying to use
initrd secrets for the first time. While developing the secrets I found
I could not get new versions of the secrets to take effect.
Additionally, it's a nasty issue to run into if you had cause to change
the initrd secrets for credential rotation, etc, if you change them and
discover you cannot, or alternatively that you can't roll back as you
would expect.
Additional changes in this patch.
* Add a regression test that switching to another grub configuration
with the alternate secrets works. This test relies on the fact that it
is not changing the initrd. I have checked that the test fails if I
undo my change.
* Persist the useBootLoader disk state, similarly to other boot state.
* I had to do this, otherwise I could not find a route to testing the
alternate boot configuration. I did attempt a few different ways of
testing this, including directly running install-grub.pl, but what
I've settled on is most like what a user would do and avoids
depending on lots of internal details.
* Making tests that test the boot are a bit tricky (see hibernate.nix
and installer.nix for inspiration), I found that in addition to
having to copy quite a bit of code I still couldn't get things to
work as desired since the bootloader state was being clobbered.
My change to persist the useBootLoader state could break things,
conceptually. I need some help here discovering if that is the case,
possibly by letting this run through a staging CI if there is one.
Fix#114594.

On some systems, EFI variables are not supported or otherwise wonky.
bootctl attempting to access them causes failures during bootloader
installations and updates. For such systems, NixOS provides the options
`boot.loader.efi.canTouchEfiVariables` and
`boot.loader.systemd-boot.graceful` which pass flags to bootctl that
change whether and how EFI variables are accessed.
Previously, these flags were only passed to bootctl during an install
operation. However, they also apply during an update operation, which
can cause the same sorts of errors. This change passes the flags during
update operations as well to prevent those errors.
Fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/151336
The build of initrd-secrets can routinely fail for old boot entries
if the secrets have been removed or renamed in a later generation.
This always happens for generation 1, because it's built from the
NixOS installer and the paths differs by the mount point (i.e. /mnt).
The error is very confusing because it fails to mention it's about
an older generation and that it's somewhat harmless.
This commit turns the error into a warning for all generations but the
current, adds the name of the failed entry to the message and a note
explaining why it can happen.
apparently pandoc has changed behavior over the past releases, so the
files are no longer in sync. occasionally this requires edits
to the markdown source to not remove an anchor that was there
before (albeit wth a very questionable id), or where things were simply
being misrendered due to syntax errors.
This reverts commit da905d4cf9.
See the commit linked above for further information on why this was
needed. Apparently this is not needed anymore because the need for
LD_LIBRARY_PATH (which is needed for `modprobe(8)` to find
`libpthread.so.0`) doesn't exist anymore.
Since d33e52b253 the library path of each
binary in extra-utils is patched correctly.
nixos-enter sets up /etc/resolv.conf as a bind mount from the host
system, so trying to activate a system that sets
`environment.etc."resolv.conf"` (e.g. with systemd-resolved enabled)
results in an unhelpful warning.
Skip linking /etc/resolv.conf if we're in a nixos-enter environment, as
determined by the IN_NIXOS_ENTER environment variable.
Make the warnings more helpful, indicating which file we failed to link.
Unlink temporary files in case of failure.
That version has a regression that leaves some machines unbootable.
While we wait for the fix (252.2) to land in master, this is a workaround that
should save people some pain.
To reduce size, stage 1 (the initrd) is populated by copying specific
binaries in, then copying the libraries specifically needed by those
binaries. `patchelf` is then used to make the binaries search in the
directory where these libraries are copied to instead of their original
store paths.
Some filesystems (e.g. ZFS) do not guarantee that copying the same files
in the same order into a given directory will result in `find` returning
them in any particular order (though the order appears consistent so
long as the directory is not modified).
Therefore, when the binaries are scanned for libraries to copy in, they
might be scanned in a different order each time the derivation is built.
If two binaries need two different libraries with the same name, then a
different instance of the library might be copied in first, changing the
derivation contents and breaking reproducibility.
This turns out to be the case with `libudev.so.1` from both `systemd`
(needed by e.g. `mdadm`) and `systemdMinimal` (needed by e.g.
`dmsetup`). This issue is fixed by sorting the list of binaries to be
scanned instead of relying on filesystem order so that the same instance
always gets seen and copied first.
Both before this change (at least on ext4) and after this change
(without any options that affect stage 1), this is the `libudev.so.1`
from `systemdMinimal` by way of `dmsetup`. Whether this is appropriate
and how much the two different systemd configurations and udev libraries
need to be involved is a topic left for future work.
We separate the different steps (injecting the toplevel and injecting
the specialisations) so that it's easy to document what each snippet is
actually doing.
Yes I know it's dirty to link the rendered HTML, but linking
`#sec-kernel-config` breaks the manual build for me with the following
error:
element link: validity error : IDREF attribute linkend references an unknown ID "sec-kernel-config"
This is something that should probably be fixed, but for the current
change I'd argue that this is good enough (in fact even the
`nix.settings`-option uses that hack).
- The default cipher is BF-CBC, which openvpn refuses to use by default.
Switched to AES-256-CBC.
- openvpn does not require an external "ip" executable anymore, and does
not support the "ipconfig" option by default, so remove that option.
When no interfaces are managed by systemd-networkd, it will
unconditionally fail. This option allows it to be disabled in those
situations where it prevents system switches from succeeding.
The placement of this option under `nix` was misleading, as it is not
configuration of the Nix daemon, but rather configuration of the NixOS
boot process and how it mounts the Nix store. As such, make it an option
of `boot` to clarify what it actually affects, and imply that it will
only take effect on a reboot.
Since it no longer has the context of nix, adjust the name to include
it.
Or else systemd-oomd gets marked as failed due to
"Userspace Out-Of-Memory (OOM) Killer was skipped because of a failed condition check (ConditionControlGroupController=v2)."
and cause the system to enter degraded state.

mountFS adds these strings to fstab and then relies on `mount` parsing fstab. If
they have spaces or tabs in them, that would break fstab and therefore not mount
with the unhelpful error: No such file or directory.

Replaces the `dhcpV6PrefixDelegationConfig` with
`dhcpPrefixDelegationConfig` and throws an error if the old option is
used.
Also adapt the respective IPv6 prefix delegation test.
Before this patch, the entry match condition always fails, causing all
entries being removed. The error is not noticed because later they are
re-generated.
Before this patch, the gen_number found by regex contains
"-specialisation-foo" if specialisation is used. As a result, applying
int() to gen_number raises ValueError, causing entries containing
a specialisation part not being removed.
most of these are hidden because they're either part of a submodule that
doesn't have its type rendered (eg because the submodule type is used in
an either type) or because they are explicitly hidden. some of them are
merely hidden from nix-doc-munge by how their option is put together.
conversions were done using https://github.com/pennae/nix-doc-munge
using (probably) rev f34e145 running
nix-doc-munge nixos/**/*.nix
nix-doc-munge --import nixos/**/*.nix
the tool ensures that only changes that could affect the generated
manual *but don't* are committed, other changes require manual review
and are discarded.
mostly no rendering changes. some lists (like simplelist) don't have an
exact translation to markdown, so we use a comma-separated list of
literals instead.
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.
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.
commit 0507725061 ("setup-hooks/strip.sh: run RANLIB on static
archives after stripping") added an extra argument to `stripDirs()`
helper.
I did not realize it's used outside the strip hook itself. Restore
stripping by passing $RANLIB as a new argument.
now nix-doc-munge will not introduce whitespace changes when it replaces
manpage references with the MD equivalent.
no change to the manpage, changes to the HTML manual are whitespace only.
Call dbus by using `$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.
make (almost) all links appear on only a single line, with no
unnecessary whitespace, using double quotes for attributes. this lets us
automatically convert them to markdown easily.
the few remaining links are extremely long link in a gnome module, we'll
come back to those at a later date.
we can't embed syntactic annotations of this kind in markdown code
blocks without yet another extension. replaceable is rare enough to make
this not much worth it, so we'll go with «thing» instead. the module
system already uses this format for its placeholder names in attrsOf
paths.
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.
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 systemd-coredump module required systemd to be built with
withCoredump=true, even if the module was disabled.
- allow systemd to be missing systemd-coredump if the module is disabled
- switch to mkDefault for the sysctl config to allow user overrides when
the module is disabled
- add nixos tests for both the enabled and disabled cases
the conversion procedure is simple:
- find all things that look like options, ie calls to either `mkOption`
or `lib.mkOption` that take an attrset. remember the attrset as the
option
- for all options, find a `description` attribute who's value is not a
call to `mdDoc` or `lib.mdDoc`
- textually convert the entire value of the attribute to MD with a few
simple regexes (the set from mdize-module.sh)
- if the change produced a change in the manual output, discard
- if the change kept the manual unchanged, add some text to the
description to make sure we've actually found an option. if the
manual changes this time, keep the converted description
this procedure converts 80% of nixos options to markdown. around 2000
options remain to be inspected, but most of those fail the "does not
change the manual output check": currently the MD conversion process
does not faithfully convert docbook tags like <code> and <package>, so
any option using such tags will not be converted at all.
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.
Some plymouth themes use assets of others, like is the case with our
default bgrt depending on spinner. Missing assets would cause the
splashscreen to not render at all in stage 1.
Preliminary dependency resolution code seemed to be broken, and this
should fix it.
Only direct dependencies of selected theme are pulled in.
`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);
...
};
```
Handling of the string length condition in should_update
was broken, as evident with the log message
> leaving systemd-boot 246 in place (250.4 is not newer)
Discussion with @mweinelt came to the conclusion
that Python's "<" operator already does what we need,
so the should_update function can be dropped.
Fixes a30de3b849
Since, 4ddc78818e systemd-boot-builder
is broken in two ways:
* if no systemd-boot is currently installed *and* the NIXOS_INSTALL_BOOTLOADER
env variable is not set, it will try to run "bootctl update", which will fail
* if the currently installed systemd-boot version is newer than the version
we're about to install, it will also try to run "bootctl update", which will fail
This patch changes the behaviour,
* for the first case to still fail, but not even bother to try running
"bootctl update" and instead erroring out with an exception
* for the second case to leave the newer version in place, restoring
the pre - 4ddc78818e behaviour
To do the proper version check a new "should_update" helper function was introduced,
mimicing the compare_product C function from bootctl. If the following systemd
issue gets resolved, we would have a nice way to get rid of this function:
> https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/23450
This change allows to again switch to a different NixOS configuration which contains
an older systemd-boot.

`extra-utils` composes the set of programs and libraries needed by
1. copying over all programs
2. copying over all libraries any program directly links against
3. set the runtime path for every program to the library directory
It seems that this approach misses the case where a library itself links
against another library. That is to say, `extra-utils` assumes that
either only progams link against libraries or that every library linked
to by a library is already linked to by a program.
`mount.zfs` linking against `libcrypto`, in turn linking against `libdl`
shows how the current approach falls short:
```
$ objdump -p $(which mount.zfs) | grep NEEDED | grep -e libdl -e libcrypto
NEEDED libcrypto.so.1.1
$ ldd (which mount.zfs) | grep libdl
libdl.so.2 => /nix/store/ybkkrhdwdj227kr20vk8qnzqnmj7a06x-glibc-2.34-115/lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f9967a9a000
```
Using `mount.zfs` directly in stage 1 init still works since
`LD_LIBRARY_PATH` overrides this (as intended).
util-linux's `mount` however executes `mount.zfs` with LD_LIBRARY_PATH
removed from its environment as can be seen with strace(1) in an
interactive stage 1 init shell (`boot.shell_on_fail` kernel parameter):
```
# env -i LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH $(which strace) -ff -e trace=/exec -v -qqq $(which mount) /mnt-root
execve("/nix/store/3gqbb3swgiy749fxd5a4k6kirkr2jr9n-extra-utils/bin/mount", ["/nix/store/3gqbb3swgiy749fxd5a4k"..., "/mnt-root"], ["LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/nix/store/3gqbb"...]) = 0
[pid 1026] execve("/sbin/mount.zfs", ["/sbin/mount.zfs", "<redacted>", "/mnt-root", "-o", "rw,zfsutil"], []) = 0
/sbin/mount.zfs: error while loading shared libraries: libdl.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
--- SIGCHLD {si_signo=SIGCHLD, si_code=CLD_EXITED, si_pid=1026, si_uid=0, si_status=127, si_utime=0, si_stime=0} ---
```
env(1) is used for clarity (hence subshells for absoloute paths).
While `mount` uses the right library path, `mount.zfs` is stripped of
it, so ld.so(8) fails resolve `libdl` (as required by `libcrypto`).
To fix this and not rely on `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` to be set, fix the library
path inside libraries as well.
This finally mounts all ZFS filesystems using `zfsutil` with correct and
intended mount options.
At least pkgs/os-specific/linux/util-linux/default.nix uses
```
"--enable-fs-paths-default=/run/wrappers/bin:/run/current-system/sw/bin:/sbin"
```
which does not cover stage 1 init's PATH as all executables are put
under /bin/.
Fix util-linux's `mount` usage by symlinking /sbin to it.
Consider ZFS filesystems meant to be mounted with zfs.mount(8), e.g.
```
config.fileSystems."/media".options = [ "zfsutil" ];
config.fileSystems."/nix".options = [ "zfsutil" ];
```
`zfsutil` uses dataset properties as mount options such that zfsprops(7)
do not have to be duplicated in fstab(5) entries or manual mount(8)
invocations.
Given the example configuation above, /media is correctly mounted with
`setuid=off` translated into `nosuid`:
```
$ zfs get -Ho value setuid /media
off
$ findmnt -t zfs -no options /media
rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime,xattr,posixacl
```
/nix however was mounted with default mount(8) options:
```
$ zfs get -Ho value setuid /nix
off
$ findmnt -t zfs -no options /nix
rw,relatime,xattr,noacl
```
This holds true for all other ZFS properties/mount options, including
`exec/[no]exec`, `devices/[no]dev`, `atime/[no]atime`, etc.
/nix is mounted using BusyBox's `mount` during stage 1 init while /media
is mounted later using proper systemd and/or util-linux's `mount`.
Tracing stage 1 init showed that BusyBox never tried to execute
mount.zfs(8) as intended by `zfsutil`.
Replacing it with util-linux's `mount` and adding the mount helper
showed attempts to execute mount.zfs(8).
Ensure ZFS filesystems are mounted with correct options iff `zfsutil` is
used.
Account for all `with*` options causing their respective unit files to
not be built, just like the current code `withCryptsetup` already does.
This fixes build errors like the following:
```
missing /nix/store/5fafsfms64fn3ywv274ky7arhm9yq2if-systemd-250.4/example/systemd/system/systemd-importd.service
error: builder for '/nix/store/67rdli5q5akzwmqgf8q0a1yp76jgr0px-system-units.drv' failed with exit code 1
```
Found by using a customised systemd package as follows:
```
systemd.package = pkgs.systemd-small;
nixpkgs.config.packageOverrides = pkgs: {
"systemd-small" = pkgs.systemd.override {
withImportd = false;
withMachined = false;
...
};
};
```
These two packages don't have a lib/firmware directory, so putting
them in hardware.firmware has no effect. This will become a hard
error once firmware compression is implemented.
(In the case of Linux, the firmware was all moved to linux-firmware.)
