Fixes#228141, which describes an issue where detaching Yubikey during the boot process
causes cryptsetup to write empty passphrase instead of the challenge-response salt stored
on the boot drive.
Historically, we allowed downgrade of DNSSEC, but some folks argue
this may decrease actually the security posture to do opportunistic DNSSEC.
In addition, the current implementation of (opportunistic) DNSSEC validation
is broken against "in the wild" servers which are usually slightly non-compliant.
systemd upstream recommended to me (in personal communication surrounding
the All Systems Go 2023 conference) to disable DNSSEC validation until
they work on it in a significant capacity, ideally, by next year.
it should be checking that it is not a broken symlink but bash
conditionals are difficult
-d was causing the directory to not be created if it does not exist

Underneath, systemd-networkd’s reload is just `networkctl reload`. Per
`man networkctl`, calling `reload` is expected to fully handle new,
modified, and removed .network files, but it only handles *new* .netdev
files. For simplicity, assume .network -> reload and .netdev -> restart.
It’s desirable to perform reload instead of restart, as restart has the
potential to bring down interfaces, resulting in a loss of network
connectivity.
Just like with system-wide tmpfiles, call `systemd-tmpfiles --create
--remove` for users during activation. This fixes an issue where new
entries in a user's tmpfiles are not reflected after activation, only at
boot when the user service systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service runs or only
after running systemd-tmpfiles manually.
Before this commit there was no way to access (boot into) specialisation of previous generations from grub,even tho they are there.
This commit will add grub submenu for each generation if the generation has any specialisation.
Which will allow you to boot into them.

When I boot there's a warning `stage-2-init: install: cannot change permissions of '/etc/nixos': No such file or directory`
because my /etc/nixos is a symlink to $HOME/dotfiles.
```
/etc/nixos -> /home/artturin/dotfiles
```

This avoids creating a build-time reference on `boot.kernelParams` if
the configuration does not use a kernel, i.e., `boot.kernel.enable` is
set to `false`.
There is only other `with` with a somewhat broad scope, `with pkgs`, but
it's used in a place where it would become awkward to change out. And
anyway its scope is rather limited still.
With a limited testing of all packaged GRUB 2 themes (pkgs.nixos-grub2-theme)
this is tested to work.
Without this change, the theme loading will error out (waiting for a key press).
With this change, the theme loads and works as expected.
The intent was to not pass the flag when installing as removable. In
reality there is a third case, where you may not want to touch EFI
variables, and not want to install as removable.
In that case, it would install to the generic \EFI\grub\grubx64.efi,
which is not a good choice in any cases. The operating system should
"own" their path under \EFI\ to be a good citizen [citation needed].
With this change, there can be only two paths GRUB can be installed to:
- \EFI\NixOS-boot\grubx64.efi
- \EFI\BOOT\bootx64.efi
This removes the surprising behaviour where GRUB may be installed to a
different location only because we configured NixOS not to touch EFI
variables.
It may be necessary under some configurations to install GRUB without
touching EFI variables, but to the NixOS-owned location.
This commit updates the binfmt magic-patterns using
f5e6786de4/scripts/qemu-binfmt-conf.sh
The patterns prior to this commit did not understand the difference
between mips32-*-* (32-bit void*,int) and mips64-*-*abin32 (32-bit
void*, 64-bit int). This commit corrects that.
In some setups, and especially with sytemd-networkd becoming more widely
used, networking.useDHCP is set to false. Despite this, it may be useful
to have dhcp in the initramfs.
Build logs show:
> configure: WARNING: non-linux system; not building mount
> configure: WARNING: non-linux system; not building swapon
So skip these on non-Linux

got broken in 6ea1a2a1be which changed
runCommandCC to runCommand but was not
noticed because it was failing silently
runCommand doesn't include CC or bintools
