Commit 75f131da02c00027b9a8240fb74d117cb0f9d9cf added
`chown 'nginx:nginx' '/var/lib/acme'` to the pre-start script,
but since it doesn't use `chown -R`, it is possible that there
are older existing subdirs (like `acme-challenge`)
that are owned to `root` from before that commit went it.
AFAICT, this issue only occurs when sshd is socket-activated. It turns
out that the preStart script's stdout and stderr are connected to the
socket, not just the main command's. So explicitly connect stderr to
the journal and redirect stdout to stderr.
This reverts commit 1a74eedd074fac69d12cecb767dc207a4bfea1bb. It
breaks NixOps, which expects that
rm -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key*
systemctl restart sshd
cat /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key.pub
works.
When a user or group is revived, this allows it to be allocated the
UID/GID it had before.
A consequence is that UIDs and GIDs are no longer reused.
Fixes#24010.
Having fixed the Google Compute Engine image build process's copying
of store paths in PR #24264, I ran `nixos-rebuild --upgrade switch`...
and the GCE image broke again, because it sets the NixOS configuration
option for the sysctl variable `kernel.yama.ptrace_scope` to
`mkDefault "1"`, i.e., with override priority 1000, and now the
`sysctl` module sets the same option to `mkDefault "0"` (this was
changed in commit 86721a5f78718caf10c578e9501f8b4d19c0eb44).
This patch raises the override priority of the Google Compute Engine
image configuration's definition of the Yama sysctl option to 500
(still lower than the priority of an unmodified option definition).
I have tested that this patch allows the Google Compute Engine image
to again build successfully for me.
And adopt the tests to add an interface and remove it again.
It should work when deactivating rstp, it will not work when activating
rstp for the first bridge as then the userspace daemon is not yet
available. But once one bridge is active with stp, it should work with
the reload for any further bridge.
Fixes#21745. Also see #22547.
Currently, if you try to build a NixOS config including channel.nix, e.g.:
nix-build -I nixpkgs=. -I nixos-config=nixos/modules/installer/cd-dvd/installation-cd-minimal.nix nixos -A config.system.build.isoImage
twice in a row, you end up with two different build results. This is
caused by the 'result' symlink of the first build affecting the channel
contents of the second build.
If we use filterSource with a predicate that ignores the 'result'
symlinks, the problem is gone. Do the same thing for VIM/Emacs
swap/backup files to avoid even more 'spurious' rebuilds.
Additionally, filter out the '.git' directory at the same time, as we
'rm -rf' it from the result anyway. This avoids a considerable amount of
unnecessary file I/O copying and deleting the .git directory.
In `nixos/modules/virtualisation/google-compute-image.nix`, copy store
paths with `rsync -a` rather than `cp -prd`, because `rsync` seems
better able to handle the hard-links that may be present in the store,
whereas `cp` may fail to copy them.
I have tested that the Google Compute Engine image builds successfully
for me with this patch, whereas it did not without this patch.
This is the same fix applied for Azure images in commit
097ef6e435d5b3fcde92e67abbaaaaaf05c0723d.
Fixes#23973.
The inability to run strace or gdb is the kind of
developer-unfriendliness that we're used to from OS X, let's not do it
on NixOS.
This restriction can be re-enabled by setting
boot.kernel.sysctl."kernel.yama.ptrace_scope" = 1;
It might be nice to have a NixOS module for enabling hardened defaults.
Xref #14392.
Thanks @abbradar.
