After the change from revision 30103, nixos-rebuild suddenly consumed
freaky amounts of memory. I had to abort the process after it had
allocated well in excess of 30GB(!) of RAM. I'm not sure what is causing
this behavior, but undoing that assignment fixes the problem. The other
two commits needed to be revoked, too, because they depend on 30103.

- Added nixos-build-vms command, which builds a virtual network from a network.nix expression (also used by nixos-deploy-network)
...
- Added a backdoor option to the interactive run-vms script. This allows me to intergrate the virtual network approach with Disnix
- Small documentation fixes
Some explanation:
The nixos-build-vms command line tool can be used to build a virtual network of a network.nix specification.
For example, a network configuration (network.nix) could look like this:
{
test1 =
{pkgs, config, ...}:
{
services.openssh.enable = true;
...
};
test2 =
{pkgs, config, ...}:
{
services.openssh.enable = true;
services.xserver.enable = true;
}
;
}
By typing the following instruction:
$ nixos-build-vms -n network.nix
a virtual network is built, which can be started by typing:
$ ./result/bin/run-vms
It is also possible to enable a backdoor. In this case *.socket files are stored in the current directory
which can be used by the end-user to invoke remote instruction on a VM in the network through a Unix
domain socket.
For example by building the network with the following instructions:
$ nixos-build-vms -n network.nix --use-backdoor
and launching the virtual network:
$ ./result/bin/run-vms
You can find two socket files in your current directory, namely: test1.socket and test2.socket.
These Unix domain sockets can be used to remotely administer the test1 and test2 machine
in the virtual network.
For example by running:
$ socat ./test1.socket stdio
ls /root
You can retrieve the contents of the /root directory of the virtual machine with identifier test1

* Put /nix on /ephemeral0 using AUFS (with the original /nix from the
...
AMI as a base) because the root filesystem is rather small.

...
won't actually cause the instance to be terminated (even if
"panic=1" were to be set), merely rebooted.

* /data -> /ephemeral0.
...
* Put /tmp and /var on the /ephemeral0, as it has much more
space than the root filesystem.
* Panic on stage 1 errors since they cannot be repaired anyway.

...
higher than 800x600 work.
* Add a "Monitor" statement to the "Screen" section, because otherwise
the Monitor section is ignored.

* Use the regular GRUB menu builder for Amazon. There are two issues:
...
we want to generate the GRUB menu without actually installing GRUB
(because Amazon supplies its own pv-grub), and each menu entry
requires "root (hd0)". For the first, allow boot.loader.grub.device
to be set to "nodev" to indicate that the GRUB menu should be
generated without installing GRUB. For the second, add an option
boot.loader.grub.extraPerEntryConfig to allow commands to be added
to each GRUB menu entry (in this case, "root (hd0)").

pv-grub, so supply a GRUB menu that starts our own kernel and

* To establish the connection to the root shell in the guest, let the
...
guest connect to a Unix domain socket on the host rather than the
other way around. The former is a QEMU feature (guestfwd to a
socket) while the latter requires a patch (which we can now get rid
of).
