This GID was used to exempt users from Grsecurity's
`/proc` restrictions; we now prefer to rely on
`security.hideProcessInformation`, which uses the `proc` group
for this purpose. That leaves no use for the grsecurity GID.
More generally, having only a single GID to, presumably, serve as the
default for all of grsecurity's GID based exemption/resriction schemes
would be problematic in any event, so if we decide to enable those
grsecurity features in the future, more specific GIDs should be added.
The new module is specifically adapted to the NixOS Grsecurity/PaX
kernel. The module declares the required kernel configurations and
so *should* be somewhat compatible with custom Grsecurity kernels.
The module exposes only a limited number of options, minimising the need
for user intervention beyond enabling the module. For experts,
Grsecurity/PaX behavior may be configured via `boot.kernelParams` and
`boot.kernel.sysctl`.
The module assumes the user knows what she's doing (esp. if she decides
to modify configuration values not directly exposed by the module).
Administration of Grsecurity's role based access control system is yet
to be implemented.
We need to use wrapped modprobe, so that it finds the right
modules. Docker needs modprobe to load overlay kernel module
for example.
This fixes an an error starting docker if the booted system's kernel
version is different from the /run/current-system profile's one.
The update-resolve-conf script from the update-resolv-conf
package is very useful and should work in most of the common
cases, so this adds an option to enable it. The option is
disabled by default for backwards compatibility.
So far the module only allowed for the ccid driver, but there are a lot
of other PCSC driver modules out there, so let's add an option called
"plugins", which boils down to a store path that links together all the
paths specified.
We don't need to create stuff in /var/lib/pcsc anymore, because we
patched pcsclite to allow setting PCSCLITE_HP_DROPDIR.
Another new option is readerConfig, which is especially useful for
non-USB readers that aren't autodetected.
The systemd service now is no longer Type=forking, because we're now
passing the -f (foreground) option to pcscd.
Tested against a YubiKey 4, SCR335 and a REINER SCT USB reader.

This was originally removed in d4d0e449d7.
The intent was not to maintain hydra expression at two places.
Nowadays we have enough devs to maintain this despite copy/pasta.
This should encourage more people to use Hydra, which is a really
great piece of software together with Nix.
Tested a deploy using https://github.com/peti/hydra-tutorial
Since systemd version 230, it is required to have a machine-id file
prior to the startup of the container. If the file is empty, a transient
machine ID is generated by systemd-nspawn.
See systemd/systemd#3014 for more details on the matter.
This unbreaks all of the containers-* NixOS tests.

Closes: #15808
The primary motivation here is to get rid of builderDefs, but now the
resulting font directory is also linked into /run/current-system/sw,
which fixes#15194.
The existence of $root/var/lib/private/host-notify as a socket
prevented a bind mount:
container foo[8083]: Failed to create mount point /var/lib/containers/foo/var/lib/private/host-notify: No such device or address
This allows setting options for the same LUKS device in different
modules. For example, the auto-generated hardware-configuration.nix
can contain
boot.initrd.luks.devices.crypted.device = "/dev/disk/...";
while configuration.nix can add
boot.initrd.luks.devices.crypted.allowDiscards = true;
Also updated the examples/docs to use /disk/disk/by-uuid instead of
/dev/sda, since we shouldn't promote the use of the latter.
... rather than ~/.xsession-errors. It might make sense to make this
the default, in order to eliminate ad hoc, uncentralised, poorly
discoverable log files.
This ensures that "journalctl -u display-manager" does what you would
expect in 2016. However, the main reason is to ensure that our VM
tests show the output of the X server.
A slight problem is that with KDE user switching, messages from the
various X servers end up in the same place. However, that's an
improvement over the previous situation, where the second X server
would overwrite the /var/log/X.0.log of the first. (This was caused by
the fact that we were passing a hard-coded value for -logfile.)
For now, leave the old implementation under `man-old` attribute.
Small warning: I had a leftover ~/.nix-profile/man from an old package,
which caused man-db's man prefer it and ignore ~/.nix-profile/share/man.
The PATH->MANPATH code just selects the first match for each PATH item.
The motivation is using sudo in chroot nix builds, a somewhat
special edge case I have and pulling system path into chroot
yields to some very nasty bug like

This reverts commit c25907d072.
I think this commit broke the NixOS service for NetworkManager. At least
with this, and the two previous reverts, everything is back to normal.
(With multiple-outputs split, it would have reduced the closure size by
3 MiB.)
This reverts commit 7ac1ef05fa.
One of a few reverts needed to unbreak networkmanager NixOS service
since the multiple-output split (to save 3 MiB of closure size).
This reverts commit 2875293615.

Move Subsonic state directory from `/var/subsonic` to
`/var/lib/subsonic`, since the general convention is for each
application to put its state directory there.
Also, automatically set the home directory of the `subsonic` user to the
value of `config.services.subsonic.home`, rather than setting it to a
value hardcoded in the module. This keeps the home directory of the
`subsonic` user and the state directory for the Subsonic application in
sync.
leveraging users.users.<user>.createHome instead of a preStart script.
preStart script is still required to ensure proper creation of logging
directory.
This properly implements revert in
0729f60697.
We used to have which='type -P' alias, but really it's best to just
rely on which package, only 88K in size.

The chroot caps restriction disallows chroot'ed processes from running
any command that requires `CAP_SYS_ADMIN`, breaking `nixos-rebuild`. See
e.g., https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/15293
This significantly weakens chroot protections, but to break
nixos-rebuild out of the box is too severe.
