Eelco Dolstra 9bf8801dc6 * Use a tmpfs for /var/run/nscd to ensure that / or /var can be
unmounted or at least remounted read-only during shutdown.  Upstart
  0.6 apparently uses nscd to do some name lookups, resulting in it
  holding some mmap mappings to deleted files in /var/run/nscd.
  E.g. lsof shows:

    init         1 root  DEL       REG              253,0          1850313 /var/run/nscd/dbyn3Piz
    init         1 root  DEL       REG              253,0          1850312 /var/run/nscd/dbt2e8PH

  See also http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=324900.
  This is a workaround - it would be better if Upstart didn't do this.

Eelco Dolstra d545d08461 * In the network-interfaces task, emit an ip-up event if there is a
statically configured interface (i.e. we're not running dhclient).
  Otherwise the ntpd job won't be triggered.
* Use the "-n" flag of "initctl emit" to send the event
  asynchronously.

Eelco Dolstra 4b2ff53ec6 * Don't stop jobs that are already stopped.
svn path=/nixos/branches/upstart-0.6/; revision=18226
2009-11-06 21:17:11 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 82c3e2aa50 * Updated poweroff/reboot/maintenance mode for Upstart 0.6. Upstart
no longer emits specific events for those.  Instead it emits a
  "runlevel" event.  The "runlevel" task starts the "shutdown" task to
  perform the desired action.
* Upstart 0.6 no longer has a "shutdown" event, so "stop on shutdown"
  no longer works.  Therefore the shutdown task explicitly stops all
  running Upstart jobs, before sending a TERM/KILL signal to all
  remaining processes.
* Do a "chvt 1" at the start of the shutdown task to switch to the
  console.
* Use /dev/console instead of /dev/tty1, since if somebody is logged
  in on tty1, bad things will happen.

2009-11-06 15:46:56 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 903e92bde6 * Use Upstart's "export fork" feature to properly detect when a daemon
is "ready".  This prevents ugly race conditions, e.g. HAL failing to
  start because dbus hasn't finished starting yet.
* Support post-start scripts.  These are executed after the job's main
  process has started but before the job's "started" event is
  emitted.  For instance, the udev job uses this to perform "udevadm
  trigger / settle" to create all devices.  Previously this had to be
  done in the pre-start script, so the daemon had to started in the
  pre-start script as well.

Eelco Dolstra 5dfaf565bf * On the CD or on a newly installed system, create the root account
with an empty password, rather than with a hashed empty password.
  The latter is a security risk, because it allows remote root logins
  if a user enables sshd before setting a proper root password.
* Allow empty passwords for login and slim, but nothing else.

Marc Weber d0c68bc9ab adding jobAttrs which is filled from jobs contents
Purpose: Allow overwriding of properties such as:

thanks to Nicolas Pierron for reviewing and
extending nixpkgs to make this possible

I'll convert most of the jobs ASAP so please don't care
about the depreceateion much right now

Lluís Batlle i Rossell 75f6cd20da Making modular my previous changes for armv5tel. I updated the way to use
grub. Its options are no more inside 'boot', but inside 'boot.loader.grub'.
I added a new bootloader configuration for nixos, generationsDir. It creates
/boot/default/{init,initrd,kernel,system} symlinks, and the same for the generations
in /boot/system-$gen/{init,initrd,kernel,system}.

I can program the u-boot loader to load /boot/default files always, and have
a minimal nixos boot loader installer functionality. Additionally, I can refer
to the other system generations easily, with a simple 'ls' in /boot.

* Add a section "Building your own NixOS CD", which explain how to replace

* Fix "Testing the installer" and "Testing the initrd" to fit the location
of derivations.

* release.nix: fixed the manual job.
* ISO generation: break an infinite recursion.  Don't know why this
  suddenly happens.  Probably because of the nixpkgs.config change,
  but I don't see why.  Maybe the option evaluation is too strict.
