it helps, but is incomplete.
more fixes are coming, but including these would change too much
generic btrfs code, which might cause trouble for others.
so the best advice is not to use btrfs send yet and wait for 3.11 or 3.12
Hydra has these evaluation errors:
at `nixpkgs.linuxPackages.lttngModules.i686-linux' [nixosSrc = ..., nixpkgs = ..., officialRelease = false]:
value is an attribute set while a string was expected
because licenses.mit is an attribute set and not a string.
TODO: Licenses in pkgs/lib/licenses.nix are a mix of attr sets and
strings, this needs to be standardized.
Add linux kernel modules needed to do kernel tracing with LTTng.
To make them available to lttng in NixOS, add this to configuration.nix:
boot.extraModulePackages = [ pkgs.linuxPackages.lttngModules ];
It has been submitted for inclusion in mainline, so it will probably
make it into 3.11 (or 3.12 as 3.11 is fairly close to release).
It is very local, only affecting people who use the "send" feature.
Without it, send is unstable/unsafe to use incrementally.
It can probably be applied to 3.9 and 3.8 as well, but as I only
tested it against 3.10, so I didn't bother.
It's bad to have the kernel config scattered across two places. (This
should also be done for the other architectures.)
Also, restore Xen and KVM guest support in Linux 3.10.
Having N different copies of the NixOS kernel configuration is bad
because these copies tend to diverge. For instance, our 3.10 config
lacked some modules that were enabled in older configs, probably
because the 3.10 config had been copied off an earlier version of some
older kernel config.
So now there is a single kernel config in common-config.nix. It has a
few conditionals to deal with new/removed kernel options, but
otherwise it's pretty straightforward.
Also, a lot of cut&paste boilerplate between the kernel Nix
expressions is gone (such as preConfigure).
KQEMU was a linux kernel module for accelerating the QEMU virtual
machine on x86 hardware. Since QEMU 0.11 (and up), there is no support
for KQEMU any more, the focus is now on KVM.
