This splits a few NixOS tests (namely Chromium, VirtualBox and the
networking tests) into several subtests that are exposed via attributes.
The networking tests were already split up but they didn't expose an
attribute set of available tests but used a function attribute to
specify the resulting test instead.
A new function callSubTests in nixos/release.nix is now responsible for
gathering subtests, which is also used for the installer and boot tests.
The latter is now placed in a tests.boot.* namespace rather than
"polluting" the tests attribute set with its subtest.
As @bobvanderlinden suggests in #13585:
"Looks like that cleans things up quite a bit! Just one aesthetics note,
the boot tests could now be renamed from boot.bootBiosCdrom to
boot.biosCdrom in nixos/tests/boot.nix:L33.
That makes them more consistent with the other tests."

This makes it easier to test just a specific channel rather than to
force testing all builds down the users/testers throat. Especially this
makes it easier to test NixOS channel upgrades only against the Chromium
stable channel instead of just removing the beta/dev channels from the
tests entirely (as done in 69ec09f38a).

So far the networking test expression only generated a single test
depending on the passed "test" attribute. This makes it difficult to
autodiscover the subtests with our shiny new callSubTests function.
This change essentially doesn't change the behaviour of the subtests but
rather exposes them as an attribute set instead of relying on a
particular input argument.
The useNetworkd argument still exists however.

This should de-clutter the various redundant lines of callTest's on
subtests so that every main test file should have only one line with a
callSubTests instead.
Overrides work the same way as callTest, except that if the system
attribute is explicitly specified we do not generate attributes for all
available systems.

Now subtests are separate derivations, because the individual tests do
not depend on state from previous test runs.
This has the advantage that it's easier to run individiual tests and
it's also easier to pinpoint individual tests that randomly fail.

Updates gitlab to the current stable version and fixes a lot of features that
were broken, at least with the current version and our configuration.
Quite a lot of sweat and tears has gone into testing nearly all features and
reading/patching the Gitlab source as we're about to deploy gitlab for our
whole company.
Things to note:
* The gitlab config is now written as a nix attribute set and will be
converted to JSON. Gitlab uses YAML but JSON is a subset of YAML.
The `extraConfig` opition is also an attribute set that will be merged
with the default config. This way *all* Gitlab options are supported.
* Some paths like uploads and configs are hardcoded in rails (at least
after my study of the Gitlab source). This is why they are linked from
the Gitlab root to /run/gitlab and then linked to the configurable
`statePath`.
* Backup & restore should work out of the box from another Gitlab instance.
* gitlab-git-http-server has been replaced by gitlab-workhorse upstream.
Push & pull over HTTPS works perfectly. Communication to gitlab is done
over unix sockets. An HTTP server is required to proxy requests to
gitlab-workhorse over another unix socket at
`/run/gitlab/gitlab-workhorse.socket`.
* The user & group running gitlab are now configurable. These can even be
changed for live instances.
* The initial email address & password of the root user can be configured.

It looks like now queue is not immediately cleared from cancelled jobs.
Instead, files like "c00001" are left alongside "d00001-001", and
cleanup happens at some later point of time. Also, all new jobs are
assigned consecutive numbers now (00002, 00003 etc.). So when
original d00001 file is finally cleaned, it breaks the test. Fixed
by checking for any "d*" file inside the queue and cleaning it by
ourselves to ensure that each job works correctly.
We don't want to build all those things along with the manual, so that's
what the defaultText attribute is for.

So far we were merely printing a warning if there are still references

This adds a new option allowImpurePaths, which when set to false will
cause the "udev-rules" derivation to fail.
I've set this to true by default, to not break existing systems too much
and the intention is to set it to false for a few NixOS VM tests.

We were trying to find FHS references in all of the rules found in
services.udev.packages. Unfortunately we're still fixing up paths in the
same derivation where we are checking those references, so for example
references to /sbin/modprobe were still printed to be needed to fixup
even though they were already fixed at the time.
So now we're printing a more helpful warning message which is also
conditional (before the warning message was printed regardless of
whether there are any rules that need fixup) and is based off the rules
that were already fixed up.
The new warning message not only contains the build-local rule files but
also the original files from other store paths and the FHS path
references that were still found.
With 8ecd3a5e1d reverted, we now get this:

The `sane` case wasn't fixed, as it calls a *function* in pkgs to get
the default value.
This is an improved version of original #12357.
For the purpose of generating docs, evaluate options with each derivation
in `pkgs` (recursively) replaced by a fake with path "\${pkgs.attribute.path}".
It isn't perfect, but it seems to cover a vast majority of use cases.
Caveat: even if the package is reached by a different means,
the path above will be shown and not e.g. `${config.services.foo.package}`.
As before, defaults created by `mkDefault` aren't displayed,
but documentation shouldn't (mostly) be a reason to use that anymore.
Note: t wouldn't be enough to just use `lib.mapAttrsRecursive`,
because derivations are also (special) attribute sets.
Fixes references coming from the mdadm udev rules.
This addresses #12722 (mdadm udev rules have references to /usr/bin) but

This has broken remote SSH into initrd because ${cfg.shell} is not
expanded. Also, nsswitch is useless without libnss_files.so which
are installed by initrd-ssh.
Generally we shouldn't ship pre-release versions anyway, and we
certainly don't want them to be release blockers. Also, chromium
builds are just too slow to have them blocking the channel (see
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/12794).
This is a regression introduced by merging the EBS and S3 images. The
EBS images had a special marker /.ebs to prevent the initrd from using
ephemeral storage for the unionfs, but this marker was missing in the
consolidated image.
The fix is to check the file ami-manifest-path on the metadata server
to see if we're an S3-based instance. This does require networking in
the initrd.
Issue #12613.
The default behavior with an m3.medium instance is to relocate
/nix and /tmp to /disk0 because an assumption is made that any
ephemeral disk is larger than the root volume. Rather than make
that assumption, add a check to see if the disk is larger, and
only then relocate /nix and /tmp.

First of all this fixes an evaluation error I introduced in ae466ba,
which wasn't triggered by any of my own tests against the change because
there are usually no NixOS options that are declared outside of the
<nixpkgs> tree. I renamed the attribute name from "fn" to "fileName"
first and later to "fullPath" but forgot one still occuring "filename".
Thanks to @vcunat for noticing this.
Another thing that he pointed out was that the "stripPrefix" function
can be factored away entirely, because it's very similar to
"removePrefix" in <nixpkgs/lib>.
Unfortunately we can't use "removePrefix" as is, because we need to
account for the final shlash.
So instead of removing it twice and/or retaining "stripPrefix", let's
append a shlash on every "prefixesToStrip" and we can use "removePrefix"
as is.

stripPrefix function from stripAnyPrefixes (I personally love

factor away the "fn:").
Also, let's use path as a better name for "fn" (filename), because
that's what it is and also cannot be confused with "fn" meaning
"function".

This broke all of the installer tests, because they needed to rebuild
the manual within the test machine, while it only has a closure of the
already pre-built system in place.
The problem here was just that the order of the arguments got mixed up
in stripAnyPrefixes, so it was actually trying to strip the path off the
prefix, not the other way around.
So in the end no prefix was stripped at all, so we ended up having full
store paths in the manual, which in turn caused the build within the VM
to fail, because the prefixes differed.

When using `--ensure-unique-name`, don't needlessly append `"-0"` if the

This is especially helpful with NixOps since when it deploys to a
container it uses `--ensure-unique-name`. This means that the container
name will never match the deployment host due to the `"-0"`. Having the
container name and the host name match isn't exactly a requirement, but
it's nice to have and a small change.

overwrite each other. The generated config file is a shell script, after all,
so this should work fine.

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

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

Two concurrent tarsnap backups cannot be run at the same time with the

A machine may not always be active (or online!) when a backup timer

However, we also need to make sure that we can contact the tarsnap
server reliably before we start the backup. So, we attempt to ping the
access endpoint in a loop with a sleep, before continuing.
