Lluís Batlle i Rossell 746b572ee6 stage2init: fix respecting 'noatime' mount options for / 
We had a "mount -o remount,rw none /" that was setting back 'relatime',
although we had set 'noatime' at initrd mount. Removing the word 'none' fixed
it.

Specifying a device (in this case 'none'), makes mount to forget previous
device options. According to manpage, it says not to read fstab or mtab. But the
effect is that of setting 'relatime', if it was mounted 'noatime.

Eelco Dolstra b15e1fbb08 Boot loader refactoring 
- Renamed system.build.menuBuilder to system.build.installBootLoader.

- ‘install-grub.pl’ (formerly grub-menu-builder.pl) now generates the
  GRUB menu *and* installs GRUB (if necessary).

- ‘switch-to-configuration.sh’ has no boot loader specific knowledge
  anymore.  It just calls installBootLoader.

Eelco Dolstra a0721ad2b3 stage-1-init: Use mount --move to move /sys etc. to the target root

Eelco Dolstra f07f221f0e Replace grub-menu-builder with a much faster version 
The old GRUB menu builder script is quite slow, typically taking
several seconds.  This is a real annoyance since it's run every time
you switch to a new configuration.  Therefore this patch replaces the
Bash script with a much faster Perl script.  In a VirtualBox test, the
execution time went from 2.7s to 0.1s.  The Perl version is also more
correct because it uses XML to get the GRUB configuration (through
builtins.toXML), so there are no shell escaping issues.

The new script currently lacks support for subconfigurations defined
through "nesting.children".

Eelco Dolstra 76c74cd7c7 initrd: Detect filesystem type before doing fsck/mount 
BusyBox doesn't handle the "auto" filesystem type very well: fsck will
just ignore such filesystems, and mount will only work properly if the
required kernel module is already loaded.  Therefore, use blkid to
determine the filesystem type.

Also generate an /etc/fstab in the initrd rootfs on the fly.  This is
useful if you're dropped into an emergency shell since it allows you
to say "fsck /dev/sda1" or "mount /dev/sda" and have the right thing
happen.

Eelco Dolstra 980ba4d5a5 stage-1: mount /proc, /sys, /dev in the target root 
The switch_root in BusyBox doesn't do this (while the one in

Eelco Dolstra 9692495df0 Use BusyBox in the initrd 
Using BusyBox instead of Bash plus a bunch of other tools gives us a
much more feature-full, yet smaller initrd.  In particular, BusyBox
contains networking commands such as ip and a DHCP client, useful for
NFS boots.  It's also much more convenient for rescue situations
because the shell has builtin readline support and there are many more
tools (including vi).

Eelco Dolstra 6f03065dce * Move the setting of $MODULE_DIR to modprobe.nix.

  you can't use it to update the tree in the Nix store.  But at least
  commands like "depmod -n" work now.)  Reported by Kirill Elagin on

Eelco Dolstra 362d1389d3 * mountall: make the "console output" Upstart stanza do its work. We 
were redirecting output to /var/log/upstart/<job>, so it didn't work
  properly.
* mountall-ip-up: send the USR1 signal to the mountall process by
  looking up its PID, rather than doing "pkill -USR1 mountall".  This
  prevents a very subtle race condition where USR1 is delivered to a
  child process of mountall (such as fsck), if pkill sees the child
  just before its execve().  There is actually still a race condition
  because mountall installs its USR1 handler *after* daemonising, so
  mountall-ip-up could accidentally kill mountall.  Should report this
  to upstream.

Eelco Dolstra 86d8d62d16 * Allow Upstart jobs to declare that they shouldn't be restarted by 
switch-to-configuration.  E.g. the X server shouldn't be restarted
  because that kills all the X clients.

Eelco Dolstra 3495a773f9 * Improved Upstart job handling in switch-to-configuration. It no 
longer compares the current configuration to the previous
  configuration, but instead compares the current Upstart state to the
  intended state.  Thus, if the switch script is interrupted, running
  nixos-rebuild again will resume starting/stopping Upstart jobs where
  the previous run left off.

  We determine if an Upstart job has changed by having the pre-start
  script of each Upstart job put a symlink to its .conf file in
  /var/run/upstart-jobs.  So if this symlink differs from the target
  of /etc/init/<job>.conf, then the job has changed.  This also
  prevents multiple restarts of dependent jobs.  E.g., if job B has
  "start on started A" and "stop on stopping A", then restarting A
  will cause B to be restarted, so B shouldn't B restarted a second
  time.

  We only start jobs that are not running if 1) they're tasks that
  have been previously run (like mountall); or 2) they're jobs that
  have a "start on" condition.  This seems a reasonable heuristic.

Eelco Dolstra ee6c9bb998 * Provide two utility functions in Upstart jobs: "ensure JOBNAME"

* Drop references to the "capability" kernel module, which no longer
  exists.

Lluís Batlle i Rossell dd6eb81797 Adding /etc/mdadm.conf, with the contents supplied at boot.initrd.mdadmConf. 
This allows setting a fixed device name per array, thus ensuring that at boot,
the arrays will always be mounted with the same names. I think this allows
solving the problem of grub getting confused about softraid device names
(prefix and root), if the devices always get the same naming at initrd.
