John Ericson 8929989614 lib: Clean up how linux and gcc config is specified
The `platform` field is pointless nesting: it's just stuff that happens
to be defined together, and that should be an implementation detail.

This instead makes `linux-kernel` and `gcc` top level fields in platform
configs. They join `rustc` there [all are optional], which was put there
and not in `platform` in anticipation of a change like this.

`linux-kernel.arch` in particular also becomes `linuxArch`, to match the
other `*Arch`es.

The next step after is this to combine the *specific* machines from
`lib.systems.platforms` with `lib.systems.examples`, keeping just the
"multiplatform" ones for defaulting.

Bas van Dijk d06de760f8 nixos/modules/system/activation/top-level.nix: allow overriding system.name
The toplevel derivations of systems that have `networking.hostName`
set to `""` (because they want their hostname to be set by DHCP) used
to be all named
`nixos-system-unnamed-${config.system.nixos.label}`.
This makes them hard to distinguish.

A similar problem existed in NixOS tests where `vmName` is used in the
`testScript` to refer to the VM. It defaulted to the
`networking.hostName` which when set to `""` won't allow you to refer
to the machine from the `testScript`.

This commit makes the `system.name` configurable. It still defaults to:

```
if config.networking.hostName == ""
then "unnamed"
else config.networking.hostName;
```

but in case `networking.hostName` needs to be to `""` the
`system.name` can be set to a distinguishable name.

$toplevel/system: use kernel's architecture
`$toplevel/system` of a system closure with `x86_64` kernel and `i686` userland should contain "x86_64-linux".

If `$toplevel/system` contains "i686-linux", the closure will be run using `qemu-system-i386`, which is able to run `x86_64` kernel on most Intel CPU, but fails on AMD.

So this fix is for a rare case of `x86_64` kernel + `i686` userland + AMD CPU

Andrew Childs ce416779bb nixos/activation: use eval-config's system argument for nesting
This avoids a possible surprise if the user is using `nixpkgs.system`
and `nesting.children`. `nesting.children` is expected to ignore all
parent configuration so we shouldn't propagate the user-facing option
`nixpkgs.system`. To avoid doing so, we introduce a new internal
option for holding the value passed to eval-config.nix, and use that
when recursing for nesting.

Andrew Childs b83164a049 nixos/activation: propagate system to nested configurations
The current behavior lets `system` default to
`builtins.currentSystem`. The system value specified to
`eval-config.nix` has very low precedence, so this should compose
properly.

Fixes #80806

Maximilian Bosch 7297cc5501 nixos/activation: fix systemd-user daemon-reload in auto-upgrade service (#47695)
The autoupgrade service defined in `system.autoUpgrade`
(`nixos/modules/installer/tools/auto-upgrade.nix`) doesn't have `su` in
its path and thus yields a warning during the `daemon-reload`.

Specifying the absolute path fixes the issue.

Elis Hirwing 5664e64a01 nixos/activation: Switch from bash to sh to avoid reading users bash config (#46851)

Maximilian Bosch df05618f2a nixos/activation: fix activation script for non-POSIX shells (#46042)
This fixes an issue with shells like fish that are not fully POSIX
compliant. The syntax `ENV=val cmd' doesn't work properly in there.

This issue has been addressed in #45932 and #45945, however it has been
recommended to use a single shell (`stdenv.shell' which is either
`bash' or `sh') to significantly reduce the maintenance overload in the
future.

See https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/45897#issuecomment-417923464

Fixes #45897

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.

Jan Malakhovski 119c8f91e7 nixos: introduce system.nixosLabel option and use it where appropriate
Setting nixosVersion to something custom is useful for meaningful GRUB
menus and /nix/store paths, but actuallly changing it rebulids the
whole system path (because of `nixos-version` script and manual
pages). Also, changing it is not a particularly good idea because you
can then be differentitated from other NixOS users by a lot of
programs that read /etc/os-release.

This patch introduces an alternative option that does all you want
from nixosVersion, but rebuilds only the very top system level and
/etc while using your label in the names of system /nix/store paths,
GRUB and other boot loaders' menus, getty greetings and so on.

Eelco Dolstra 29027fd1e1 Rewrite ‘with pkgs.lib’ -> ‘with lib’
Using pkgs.lib on the spine of module evaluation is problematic
because the pkgs argument depends on the result of module
evaluation. To prevent an infinite recursion, pkgs and some of the
modules are evaluated twice, which is inefficient. Using ‘with lib’
prevents this problem.

Oliver Charles 41775167ac switch-to-configuration.pl: Interact via DBus

systemctl binary have been replaced with equivalent operations via DBus.
