Right now the UX for installing NixOS on a headless system is very bad.
To enable sshd without physical steps users have to have either physical
access or need to be very knowledge-able to figure out how to modify the
installation image by hand to put an `sshd.service` symlink in the
right directory in /nix/store. This is in particular a problem on ARM
SBCs (single board computer) but also other hardware where network is
the only meaningful way to access the hardware.
This commit enables sshd by default. This does not give anyone access to
the NixOS installer since by default. There is no user with a non-empty
password or key. It makes it easy however to add ssh keys to the
installation image (usb stick, sd-card on arm boards) by simply mounting
it and adding a keys to `/root/.ssh/authorized_keys`.
Importantly this should not require nix/nixos on the machine that
prepare the installation device and even feasiable on non-linux systems
by using ext4 third party drivers.
Potential new threats: Since this enables sshd by default a
potential bug in openssh could lead to remote code execution. Openssh
has a very good track-record over the last 20 years, which makes it
far more likely that Linux itself would have a remote code execution
vulnerability. It is trusted by millions of servers on many operating
systems to be exposed to the internet by default.

readd perl (used in shell scripts), rsync (needed for NixOps) and strace (common debugging tool)
they where previously removed in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/91213

xss-lock needs XDG_SESSION_ID to respond to loginctl lock-session(s)
(and possibly other session operations such as idle hint management).
This change adds XDG_SESSION_ID to the list of imported environment
variables when starting systemctl.
Inspired by home-manager, add importVariables configuration.
Set session to XDG_SESSION_ID when running xss-lock as a service.

We apparently didn't fit anymore. I don't think this test is meant
to (also) check closure size.
Note: as of this commit, the test is blocked by a fontconfig problem,
so I tested with that merge temporarily reverted.
This goes through a recent example of 19.09 (because the workflow
should be everchanging, so our example needs to be recent).
Lots of changes, just read idk.
Attempting to reuse keys on a basis different to the cert (AKA,
storing the key in a directory with a hashed name different to
the cert it is associated with) was ineffective since when
"lego run" is used it will ALWAYS generate a new key. This causes
issues when you revert changes since your "reused" key will not
be the one associated with the old cert. As such, I tore out the
whole keyDir implementation.
As for the race condition, checking the mtime of the cert file
was not sufficient to detect changes. In testing, selfsigned
and full certs could be generated/installed within 1 second of
each other. cmp is now used instead.
Also, I removed the nginx/httpd reload waiters in favour of
simple retry logic for the curl-based tests
The cyclic dependency of systemd → cryptsetup → lvm2 → udev=systemd
needs to be broken somewhere. The previous strategy of building
cryptsetup with an lvm2 built without udev (#66856) caused the
installer.luksroot test to fail. Instead, build lvm2 with a udev built
without cryptsetup.
Fixes#96479.

Testing of certs failed randomly when the web server was still
returning old certs even after the reload was "complete". This was
because the reload commands send process signals and do not wait
for the worker processes to restart. This commit adds log watchers
which wait for the worker processes to be restarted.
- Use an acme user and group, allow group override only
- Use hashes to determine when certs actually need to regenerate
- Avoid running lego more than necessary
- Harden permissions
- Support "systemctl clean" for cert regeneration
- Support reuse of keys between some configuration changes
- Permissions fix services solves for previously root owned certs
- Add a note about multiple account creation and emails
- Migrate extraDomains to a list
- Deprecate user option
- Use minica for self-signed certs
- Rewrite all tests
I thought of a few more cases where things may go wrong,
and added tests to cover them. In particular, the web server
reload services were depending on the target - which stays alive,
meaning that the renewal timer wouldn't be triggering a reload
and old certs would stay on the web servers.
I encountered some problems ensuring that the reload took place
without accidently triggering it as part of the test. The sync
commands I added ended up being essential and I'm not sure why,
it seems like either node.succeed ends too early or there's an
oddity of the vm's filesystem I'm not aware of.
- Fix duplicate systemd rules on reload services
Since useACMEHost is not unique to every vhost, if one cert
was reused many times it would create duplicate entries in
${server}-config-reload.service for wants, before and
ConditionPathExists
This allows the user to configure systemd tmpfiles.d via
`environment.etc."tmpfiles.d/X.conf".text = "..."`, which after #93073
causes permission denied (with new X.conf):
```
ln: failed to create symbolic link '/nix/store/...-etc/etc/tmpfiles.d/X.conf': Permission denied
builder for '/nix/store/...-etc.drv' failed with exit code 1
```
or collision between environment.etc and systemd-default-tmpfiles
packages (with existing X.conf, such as tmp.conf):
```
duplicate entry tmpfiles.d/tmp.conf -> /nix/store/...-etc-tmp.conf
mismatched duplicate entry /nix/store/...-systemd-246/example/tmpfiles.d/tmp.conf <-> /nix/store/...-etc-tmp.conf
builder for '/nix/store/...-etc.drv' failed with exit code 1
```
Fixes#96755
GPaste ships keybindings for gnome-control-center. Those depend on GSettings schemas
but there is currently no mechanism for loading schemas other than using global ones
from $XDG_DATA_DIRS. Eventually, I want to add such mechanism but until then,
let's return the impure sessionPath option that was removed in

This reverts commit 1bff6fe17c, reversing
changes made to 2995fa48cb.
There’s presumably nothing wrong with this PR, except that it
conflicts with reverting #96254 which broke several tests (#96699).

The original idea for this test was, on top of providing a networkd
test, to provide newcomers with a sample configuration they could use
to get started with networkd.
That's precisely why we were doing this systemd tmpfile dance in the
first place. It was a convenient way to create a runtime file with a
specific mode and owner.
Sadly, this tmpfile rule made the test flaky. There's a race condition
between the wireguard interface configured by systemd-networkd and
systemd-tmpfiles-setup.
Sometimes, networkd is going to try loading the wireguard private key
file *before* the said file gets created by systemd-tmpfiles.
A perfect solution here would be to create a "After" dependency
between wg0.netdev and systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service. Sadly, it is
currently impossible to create such a dependency between a
networkd-specific unit and a service.
We're removing this tmp file in favor of pointing networkd directly to
the Nix store. This is clearly something that shouldn't be done in the
real world for a private file: the store is world-readable. However,
this is the only way I found to fix this test flakiness for now.
The Deepin Desktop Environment (DDE) is not yet fully packaged in
nixpkgs and it has shown a very difficult task to complete, as
discussed in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/94870. The
conclusion is that it is better to completely remove it.
In `systemd-243` the option `FwMark` in the `[WireGuard]` section of
a `.netdev`-unit has been renamed to `FirewallMark`[1]. Due to the
removal of deprecated options in our `networkd` module[2] the evaluation
of this test doesn't work.
Renaming the option to its new name fixes the issue.

The incompatibility does not seem to exist any more: programs linked against fc 2.12
on fc 2.14 system seem to at least display text, even while printing tons of errors
(as long as you generate fc cache manually), and same thing the other way around.
Hopefully it will not be an issue in the future.
