Merges pull request #15275: This addresses #15226 and fixes killing of processes before switching from the initrd to the real root. Right now, the pkill that is issued not only kills user space processes but also sends a SIGKILL to kernel threads as well. Usually these threads ignore signals, but some of these processes do handle signals, like for example the md module, which happened in #15226. It also adds a small check for the swraid installer test and a standalone test which checks on just that problem, so in the future this shouldn't happen again. This has been acked by @edolstra on IRC. |

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-16.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-16.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
