Revert "Merge pull request #48122 from zimbatm/pkg-nixos-rebuild"
This reverts commit 10addad603, reversing
changes made to 7786575c6c.

NixOS scripts should be kept in the NixOS source tree, not in
pkgs. Moving them around is just confusing and creates unnecessary
code/history churn.

nixos-*: init as package
Move all the nixos-* scripts from the nixos distribution as real
packages in the pkgs/ package set.

This allows non-nixos users to run the script as well. For example,
deploying a remote machine with:

    nixos-rebuild --target-host root@hostname --build-host root@hostname

Janne Heß 7748c3da1b nixos/nixos-install: Unset system
The system variable is used from the (possibly polluted) shell
environment.
This causes nixos-install to fail in a nix-shell because the system
shell variable is automatically set to the current system (e.g.
x86_64-linux).

nixos-option: don't abort with shell failures if options are not existant
`nixos-option` basically handles two cases: the given option is either a
valid option defined using `mkOption` or an attribute set which contains
a set of options.

If none of the above cases is valid, `$1` is invalid. Unfortunatley the
script interpreted invalid options as an attribute set which rendered
shell failures when trying to evaluate the arguments.

First of all, `if names=$(attrNames ...)` resulted in `<PRIMOP>` as
`attrNames` simply evaluated `builtins.attrNames $result` which results
in a non-applied function with `$result` being empty. Trying to map over
this string using `nixMap` while applying `escapeQuotes` causes the bash
error as `eval echo "<PRIMOP>"` is invalid syntax.

Explicitly checking if `$result' contains a value (do we have an
attribute set?) and otherwise returning a warning and asking if $option
exists fixes the problem.

Fixes #48060

nixos-option: fix #47722 when missing ~/.nix-defexpr/channels
The problem was that the non-fatal warning was not omitted
from the output when constructing a nix expression.
Now it seems OK for me.  When return code is OK,
the warnings don't get passed anywhere, but I expect
that won't matter for this utility.  Fatal errors are still shown.

Venkateswara Rao Mandela cb1ca42009 nixos/doc: add instructions for installation behind a proxy (#45854)
The instructions to install nixos behind a proxy were not clear. While
one could guess that setting http_proxy variables can get the install
rolling, one could end up with an installed system where the proxy
settings for the nix-daemon are not configured.

This commit updates the documentation with

1. steps to install behind a proxy

2. configure the global proxy settings so that nix-daemon can access
internet.

3. Pointers to use nesting.clone in case one has to use different proxy
settings on different networks.

Samuel Dionne-Riel 2f7d9c9f78 Adds refind to the installer image.
This is a 277K (as of right now) addition that can greatly help in some
last recourse scenarios. The specific rEFInd setup will not be able to
boot the installer image, but this is not why it has been added. It has
been added to make use of its volumes scanning capabilities to boot
existing EFI images on the target computer, which is sometimes necessary
with buggy EFI. While is isn't NixOS's job to fix buggy EFI, shipping
this small bit with the installer will help the unlucky few.

Example scenario: two wildly different EFI implementation I have
encountered have fatal flaws in which they sometimes will lose all the
settings, this includes boot configuration. This is compounded by the
fact that the two specific and distinct implementation do not allow
manually adding ESP paths from their interface. The only recourse is to
let the EFI boot the default paths, EFI/boot/boot{platform}.efi, which
is not a default location used by the NixOS bootloaders. rEFInd is able
to scan the volumes and detect the existing efi bootloaders, and boot
them successfully.

Following up https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/23665

Bootable USB-drives are not limited to ISO-images, there can be "normal" MBR/GPT-partitioned disk connected via USB-rack.
Also, "uas" implies "usb-storage", so there is no need to mention both.

This reverts commit 095fe5b43d.

Pointless renames considered harmful. All they do is force people to
spend extra work updating their configs for no benefit, and hindering
the ability to switch between unstable and stable versions of NixOS.

Like, what was the value of having the "nixos." there? I mean, by
definition anything in a NixOS module has something to do with NixOS...

nixos/nixos-option: don't abort in case of evaluation errors
When running e.g. `nixos-option boot.kernelPackages` I get an output
like this on the current unstable channel (18.09pre144959.be1461fc0ab):

```
$ nixos-option boot.kernelPackages
Value:
*exit 1*
```

This is fairly counter-intuitive as I have no clue what might went
wrong. `strace` delivers an output like this:

```
read(3, "error: Package \342\200\230cryptodev-linu"..., 128) = 128
read(3, "ux/cryptodev/default.nix:22 is m"..., 128) = 128
read(3, "lowBroken = true; }\nin configura"..., 128) = 128
read(3, "you can add\n  { allowBroken = tr"..., 128) = 128
read(3, "n)\n", 128)                    = 3
read(3, "", 128)                        = 0
```

`nixos-option` evaluates the system config using `nix-instantiate` which
might break when the evaluation fails (e.g. due to broken or unfree
packages that are prohibited to evaluate by default). The script aborts
due to the shebang `@shell@ -e`.

In order to ensure that no unexpected
behavior occurs due to removing `-e` from the interpreter the easiest
way to work around this was to wrap `nix-instantiate` in `evalNix()`
with a `set +e`. The function checks the success of the evaluation with
`$?` in the end. Additionally `evalNix` shouldn't break, if one
evaluation (e.g. the values that contain a package set by default) to
return additional information like a description.

With the change `nixos-option boot.kernelPackages` delivers the
following output for me:

```
Value:
error: Package ‘cryptodev-linux-1.9-4.14.52’ in /nix/store/47z2s8cwppymmgzw6n7pbcashikyk5jk-nixos/nixos/pkgs/os-specific/linux/cryptodev/default.nix:22 is marked as broken, refusing to evaluate.

"This option allows you to override the Linux kernel used by\nNixOS. Since things like external kernel module packages are\ntied to the kernel you're using, it also overrides those.\nThis option is a function that takes Nixpkgs as an argument\n(as a convenience), and returns an attribute set containing at\nthe very least an attribute <varname>kernel</varname>.\nAdditional attributes may be needed depending on your\nconfiguration. For instance, if you use the NVIDIA X driver,\nthen it also needs to contain an attribute\n<varname>nvidia_x11</varname>.\n"

Samuel Dionne-Riel 14cab1ac57 nixos-enter: Ensures presence of full /sys tree.
This partially reverts a change from e88f28965a
which removed the `mount --rbind /sys`.

While true that the activation scripts will mount `sysfs` at `/sys`,
none of the mountpoints lower in the `/sys` tree are handled by the
activation script, which includes `efivarfs`.

This fixes #38477 since it ensures the presence of `efivarfs` in the
`/sys` tree, which is why the systemd-boot installation failed.

nixos-install: Make compatible with Nix 2.0
The use of Nix 2.0 significantly simplifies the installer, since we
can just pass a different store URI (--store /mnt) - it's no longer
needed to set up a chroot environment for the build, and to bootstrap
Nix into the chroot.

Also, commands that need to run in the installation (namely boot
loader installation and setting a root password) are now executed
using nixos-enter.

This also removes the need for nixos-prepare-root since any required
initialisation is done by Nix or by the activation script.

nixos: Fix detection of btrfs root volume
Regression introduced by 801c920e95.

Since then, the btrfsSimple subtest of the installer VM test fails with:

Btrfs did not return a path for the subvolume at /

The reason for this is that the output for "btrfs subvol show" has
changed between version 4.8.2 and 4.13.1.

For example the output of "btrfs subvol show /" in version 4.8.2 was:

/ is toplevel subvolume

In version 4.13.1, the output now is the following and thus the regular
expressions used in nixos-generate-config.pl and install-grub.pl now
match (which results in the error mentioned above):

/
        Name:                   <FS_TREE>
        UUID:                   -
        Parent UUID:            -
        Received UUID:          -
        Creation time:          -
        Subvolume ID:           5
        Generation:             287270
        Gen at creation:        0
        Parent ID:              0
        Top level ID:           0
        Flags:                  -
        Snapshot(s):

In order to fix this I've changed nixos-generate-config.pl and
install-grub.pl, because both use "btrfs subvol show" in a similar vein,
so the regex for parsing the output now doesn't match anymore whenever
the volume path is "/", which should result in the same behaviour as we
had with btrfs-progs version 4.8.2.

Tested against the btrfsSimple, btrfsSubvols and btrfsSubvolDefault
subtests of the installer VM test and they all succeed now.

Dan Peebles e2589b3ca2 Deduplicate some filterSource invocations
This version should have more conventional regexes that work across many

Nix called out to the libc regex matcher, which behaved differently on
Darwin and Linux. And in Nix 1.12, we're moving to std::regex which will
also behave differently here.

And yes, I do actually evaluate make-disk-image.nix on Darwin ;)

Dan Peebles f1708a9d7d make-disk-image: change to be less VM-centric
This changes much of the make-disk-image.nix logic (and thus most NixOS
image building) to use LKL to set up the target directory structure rather
than a Linux VM. The only work we still do in a VM is less IO-heavy stuff
that while still time-consuming, is less of the overall load. The goal is
to kill more of that stuff, but that will require deeper changes to NixOS
activation scripts and switch-to-configuration.pl, and I don't want to
bite off too much at once.

Dan Peebles d990aa7163 Refactor nixos-install to separate out filesystem build logic
The key distinction I'm drawing is that there's a component that deals
with the store of the machine being built, and another component for
the store building it. The inner part of it assumes nothing from the
builder (doesn't need chroot or root powers) so it can run comfortably
inside a Nix build, as well as nixos-rebuild. I have some upcoming work
that will use that to significantly speed up and streamline image builds
for NixOS, especially on virtualized hosts like EC2, but it's also a
reasonable speedup on native hosts.

Tuomas Tynkkynen 60788745c9 channel.nix: Use filterSource to exclude unnecessary files from nixpkgs
Currently, if you try to build a NixOS config including channel.nix, e.g.:

nix-build -I nixpkgs=. -I nixos-config=nixos/modules/installer/cd-dvd/installation-cd-minimal.nix nixos -A config.system.build.isoImage

twice in a row, you end up with two different build results. This is
caused by the 'result' symlink of the first build affecting the channel
contents of the second build.

If we use filterSource with a predicate that ignores the 'result'
symlinks, the problem is gone. Do the same thing for VIM/Emacs
swap/backup files to avoid even more 'spurious' rebuilds.

Additionally, filter out the '.git' directory at the same time, as we
'rm -rf' it from the result anyway. This avoids a considerable amount of
unnecessary file I/O copying and deleting the .git directory.

This reverts commit 4dc56db37e32dcfecd667ebbf88263e47b296097.
Consult available scaling governors; for freshly generated configs, this provides a better experience than relying on a default that might not work everywhere.

The profile minimal has several drawbacks: no man pages, unusual 'dbus'

With xz compression in the squashfs, despite these additions, the iso is
smaller than what it was in 16.09.

Fine for rsync to be in system path but we still need the explicit path
in nixos-install in case it is invoked from non-NixOS systems and also
to fix OVA test failure

Eelco Dolstra 0aa7520670 Revert "nixos: remove rsync from base install and add explicit path in nixos-install"
This reverts commit 582313bafe.

Removing rsync is actually pointless because nixos-install depends on
it. So if it's part of the system closure, we may as well provide it
to users.

Probably with the next Nix release we can drop the use of rsync and
use "nix copy" instead.

Domen Kožar a6670c1a0b Fixes #18124: atomically replace /var/setuid-wrappers/ (#18186)
Before this commit updating /var/setuid-wrappers/ folder introduced
a small window where NixOS activation scripts could be terminated
and resulted into empty /var/setuid-wrappers/ folder.

That's very unfortunate because one might lose sudo binary.

Instead we use two atomic operations mv and ln (as described in
https://axialcorps.com/2013/07/03/atomically-replacing-files-and-directories/)
to achieve atomicity.

Since /var/setuid-wrappers is not a directory anymore, tmpfs mountpoints
were removed in installation scripts and in boot process.

Tested:

- upgrade /var/setuid-wrappers/ from folder to a symlink
- make sure /run/setuid-wrappers-dirs/ legacy symlink is really deleted

obadz 24f8cf08cc nixos/lib/make-disk-image: refactor to use nixos-install
- Replace hand-rolled version of nixos-install in make-disk-image by an
  actual call to nixos-install
- Required a few cleanups of nixos-install
- nixos-install invokes an activation script which the hand-rolled version
  in make-disk-image did not do. We remove /etc/machine-id as that's
  a host-specific, impure, output of the activation script

Testing:

nix-build '<nixpkgs/nixos/release.nix>' -A tests.installer.simple passes

Also tried generating an image with:

nix-build -E 'let
    pkgs = import <nixpkgs> {};
    lib = pkgs.lib;
    nixos = import <nixpkgs/nixos> {
      configuration = {
        fileSystems."/".device = "/dev/disk/by-label/nixos";
        boot.loader.grub.devices = [ "/dev/sda" ];
        boot.loader.grub.extraEntries = '"''"'
          menuentry "Ubuntu" {
             insmod ext2
             search --set=root --label ubuntu
             configfile /boot/grub/grub.cfg
          }
        '"''"';
      };
    };
  in import <nixpkgs/nixos/lib/make-disk-image.nix> {
    inherit pkgs lib;
    config = nixos.config;
    diskSize = 2000;
    partitioned = false;
    installBootLoader = false;
  }'

Then installed the image:
$ sudo df if=./result/nixos.img of=/dev/sdaX bs=1M
$ sudo resize2fs /dev/disk/by-label/nixos
$ sudo mount /dev/disk/by-label/nixos /mnt
$ sudo mount --rbind /proc /mnt/proc
$ sudo mount --rbind /dev /mnt/dev
$ sudo chroot /mnt /nix/var/nix/profiles/system/bin/switch-to-configuration boot

[ … optionally do something about passwords … ]

and successfully rebooted to that image.

Was doing all this from inside a Ubuntu VM with a single user nix install.

obadz 806e88c137 nixos-install: cleanups & improvements to run on non-NixOS systems
- Fix --no-bootloader which didn't do what it advertised
- Hardcode nixbld GID so that systems which do not have a nixbld user
  can still run nixos-install (only with --closure since they can't
  build anything)
- Cleanup: get rid of NIX_CONF_DIR(=/tmp)/nix.conf and pass arguments instead
- Cleanup: don't assume that the target system has '<nixpkgs/nixos>' or
  '<nixos-config>' to see if config.users.mutableUsers. Instead check if
  /var/setuid-wrappers/passwd is there

Installing NixOS now works from a Ubuntu host (using --closure).

Revert adding .git-revision unconditionally
This reverts commit 1e534e234b.

We already should have a .git directory if it is managed via Git,

.git-revision or .git is present.

But having .git-revision _and_ .git present seems very much redundant to
me.
