systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service pulls in local-fs.target, which
interferes with NixOps' send-keys feature (since sshd.service depends
indirectly on sysinit.target). Since in NixOS we don't use
systemd-tmpfiles for creating files (that's done by activation scripts
and preStart scripts), it's not a problem to start it a bit later.

Upstream has not been tagging new versions for a long time, but we need
compatibility with newer kernels. The 0.6.2 versions already have a bunch of
backported compatibility patches, but 3.14 kernels need even more.
Also, the git versions have fixed a bunch of crashes and other bugs, so perhaps
we should just bite the bullet and just use recent git versions (as sometimes
upstream recommends, when people run into bugs).
This adds a new "boot.zfs.useGit" boolean option, so that a user can
easily opt into using the git versions.
This includes a lot of fixes for cross-building to Windows and Mac OS X
and could possibly fix things even for non-cross-builds, like for
example OpenSSL on Windows.
The main reason for merging this in 14.04 already is that we already
have runInWindowsVM in master and it doesn't work until we actually
cross-build Cygwin's setup binary as the upstream version is a fast
moving target which gets _overwritten_ on every new release.

This creates static device nodes such as /dev/fuse or
/dev/snd/seq. The kernel modules for these devices will be loaded on
demand when the device node is opened.
Note that systemd no longer depends on dbus, so we're rid of the
cyclic dependency problem between systemd and dbus.
This commit incorporates from wkennington's systemd branch
(203dcff45002a63f6be75c65f1017021318cc839,
1f842558a95947261ece66f707bfa24faf5a9d88).
(And update liburcu to 0.8.4 according to release notes for lttng 2.4.x.)
In addition to new features and bug fixes, version 2.4.x is needed to build
against Linux 3.12 (our new stable kernel).
This module implements a significant refactoring in grsecurity
configuration for NixOS, making it far more usable by default and much
easier to configure.
- New security.grsecurity NixOS attributes.
- All grsec kernels supported
- Allows default 'auto' grsec configuration, or custom config
- Supports custom kernel options through kernelExtraConfig
- Defaults to high-security - user must choose kernel, server/desktop
mode, and any virtualisation software. That's all.
- kptr_restrict is fixed under grsecurity (it's unwriteable)
- grsecurity patch creation is now significantly abstracted
- only need revision, version, and SHA1
- kernel version requirements are asserted for sanity
- built kernels can have the uname specify the exact grsec version
for development or bug reports. Off by default (requires
`security.grsecurity.config.verboseVersion = true;`)
- grsecurity sysctl support
- By default, disabled.
- For people who enable it, NixOS deploys a 'grsec-lock' systemd
service which runs at startup. You are expected to configure sysctl
through NixOS like you regularly would, which will occur before the
service is started. As a result, changing sysctl settings requires
a reboot.
- New default group: 'grsecurity'
- Root is a member by default
- GRKERNSEC_PROC_GID is implicitly set to the 'grsecurity' GID,
making it possible to easily add users to this group for /proc
access
- AppArmor is now automatically enabled where it wasn't before, despite
implying features.apparmor = true
The most trivial example of enabling grsecurity in your kernel is by
specifying:
security.grsecurity.enable = true;
security.grsecurity.testing = true; # testing 3.13 kernel
security.grsecurity.config.system = "desktop"; # or "server"
This specifies absolutely no virtualisation support. In general, you
probably at least want KVM host support, which is a little more work.
So:
security.grsecurity.enable = true;
security.grsecurity.stable = true; # enable stable 3.2 kernel
security.grsecurity.config = {
system = "server";
priority = "security";
virtualisationConfig = "host";
virtualisationSoftware = "kvm";
hardwareVirtualisation = true;
}
This module has primarily been tested on Hetzner EX40 & VQ7 servers
using NixOps.

Realistically, common-config is useful, but there are a lot of things in
there that are non-optionally specified that aren't always useful. For
example, when deploying grsecurity, I don't want the bluetooth,
wireless, or input joystick/extra filesystem stack (XFS, etc), nor the
staging drivers tree.
The problem is that if you specify this in your own kernel config in the
grsecurity module, by saying 'BT n' to turn off bluetooth,
common-config turns on 'BT_HCIUART_BCSP y', which then becomes unused
and errors out.
This is really just an arbitrary picking at the moment, but it should be
OK.

Latest update to udisks in 344f2e65 broke it for me. Fix it by doing the
following:
- Add udisks.service to /etc/systemd/system (via systemd.packages)
- Fix path to udisks-daemon in udisks.service (libexec/ instead of lib/)
- Make dhcp work, use dhcpcd without udev in container
- Make login shell work, patch getty to not wait for /dev/tty0
- Make ssh work, sshd/pam do not start session
looking at our git history, I think it is very peculiar that we
managed to have this version (22.21) 2 months before release :)
So I think we were using some beta/rc that accidentally got called
22.21
Both branches have quite a lot in common, so it's time for a merge and
do the cleanups with respect to both implementations and also generalize
both implementations as much as possible.
This also closes#1876.

GCC doesn't support attributes on enumerators, which could pose a

This basically is binutils for Mac OS X, but ported to work on

And it's up-to-date as well! I'm mentioning this, because it was quite
hard to find a recent port of it and I just accidentally stumbled on it
while trying to do the port by myself.
So thanks to @tpoechtrager for doing this.
Also, I've added two more patches, which essentially are:
* ld-rpath-nonfinal:
This allows -rpath to be used for linking non-final builds, which
was allowed for earlier versions of cctools and got a check for
that in more recent versions.
* ld-ignore-rpath-link:
Ignores the -rpath-link option, because the cross-wrapper uses it
in different places. Unfortunately, the cctools linker doesn't
support it, so we might need to implement this later if it's
possible (I'm not a Mach-O man^H^H^Hexpert).

CAN userspace utilities and tools (for use with Linux SocketCAN).
There is no real "homepage" for this project (the only thing I could
find was the gitorious page) and they haven't produced any proper

It turns out that some of gcc 4.8's aggressive optimizations may
cause minor filesystem corruption in ZFS. To fix it, a patch was
cherry-picked from the upstream's git tree.

This is a second attempt at unifying the generic and manual-config
kernel builds (see #412 for the last time).
The set of working kernel packages is a superset of those that work on
master, and as the only objection last time was the size of the $dev
closure and now both $out and $dev combined are 20M smaller than $out on
master (see message for ac2035287fbec30d92165fd3839d1bf71b8edd47), this
should be unobjectionable.

Based on access analysis with strace, I determined an essentially
minimal required set of files from the kernel source that was needed to
build all current kernel packages on 3.10, which ultimately resulted in
keeping 30M of source. Generalizing from that minimal set, which
required ad-hoc specifications of which headers outside of include/ and
arch/*/include and which files in the scripts/ directory should be kept,
to a policy of keeping all non-arch-specific headers that aren't part of
the drivers/ directory and the entire scripts/ directory added an
additional 17M, but there was nothing in the analysis that indicated
that that ad-hoc specification was at all complete so I think the extra
hit is worth the likely greater compatibility.
For reference, we now keep:
* All headers that are NOT in arch/${notTargetArch}/include or drivers/
* The scripts/ directory
* Makefile
* arch/${targetArch}/Makefile
IMO the most likely cause of future problems are the headers in
drivers/, but hopefully they won't actually be needed as they add 50M
Ideally kernel packages would only use include and
arch/${targetArch}/include, but alas this is observably not the case.
master:
* $out
* size: 234M
* references-closure: linux-headers, glibc, attr, acl, zlib, gcc,
coreutils, perl, bash
merge-kernel-builds:
* $out
* size: 152M
* references-closure: none
* $dev
* size: 57M
* references-closure: linux-headers, glibc, zlib, gcc
So even with the non-minimal set we still beat out master. Keeping the
drivers headers would make us only slightly bigger.

In most cases, this just meant changing kernelDev (now removed from
linuxPackagesFor) to kernel.dev. Some packages needed more work (though
whether that was because of my changes or because they were already
broken, I'm not sure). Specifics:
* psmouse-alps builds on 3.4 but not 3.10, as noted in the comments that
were already there
* blcr builds on 3.4 but not 3.10, as noted in comments that were
already there
* open-iscsi, ati-drivers, wis-go7007, and openafsClient don't build on
3.4 or 3.10 on this branch or on master, so they're marked broken
* A version-specific kernelHeaders package was added
The following packages were removed:
* atheros/madwifi is superceded by official ath*k modules
* aufs is no longer used by any of our kernels
* broadcom-sta v6 (which was already packaged) replaces broadcom-sta
* exmap has not been updated since 2011 and doesn't build
* iscis-target has not been updated since 2010 and doesn't build
* iwlwifi is part of mainline now and doesn't build
* nivida-x11-legacy-96 hasn't been updated since 2008 and doesn't build
Everything not specifically mentioned above builds successfully on 3.10.

This makes the disk usage footprint of building the kernel smaller in 3
ways:
1) There is no separate kernel source derivation
2) Rather than using the entire build tree, only the output of make
modules_prepare is kept in the $dev output (plus the module symbol
versioning file generated during the build)
3) Only the subset of the source tree known to be needed for external
builds is kept in $dev
Note that while 2) is supported by official kernel documentation, I
couldn't find any source describing what we need to keep for 3). I've
started with the bare minimum (the main Makefile is called by the
Makefile generated by make modules_prepare) and we can/should add more
as needed for kernelPackages.

This has three major benefits:
1. We no longer have two kernel build processes to maintain
2. The build process is (IMO) cleaner and cleaves more closely to
upstream. In partuclar, we use make install to install the kernel and
development source/build trees, eliminating the guesswork about which
files to copy.
3. The derivation has multiple outputs: the kernel and modules are in
the default `out' output, while the build and source trees are in a
`dev' output. This makes it possible for the full source and build tree
to be kept (which is expected by out-of-tree modules) without bloating
the closure of the system derivation.
In addition, if a solution for how to handle queries in the presence of
imports from derivations ever makes it into nix, a framework for
querying the full configuration of the kernel in nix expressions is
already in place.

In the most general case, the cross and native kernel may differ in
patches and configuration file as well as architecture, kernel target,

With this, I was able to successfully compile a defconfig kernel for the

For native compiles, the most significant difference is that the
