Running agetty on ttyS0 interferes with the backdoor, which uses ttyS0
as its standard error. After agetty starts, writes to the stderr file
descriptor will return EIO (though doing "exec 2>/proc/self/fd/2" will
miracuously fix this).

‘systemd-vconsole-setup’ by default operates on /dev/tty0, the
currently active tty. Since it puts /dev/tty0 in Unicode or ASCII
mode, if the X server is currently active when it runs, keys such as
Alt-F4 won't reach the X server anymore. So use /dev/tty1 instead.
The triggers are just arbitrary strings that are included in the unit
under X-Restart-Triggers. The idea is that if they change between
reconfigurations, switch-to-configuration will restart the unit
because its store path changed. This is mostly useful for services
that implicitly depend on generated files in /etc. Thus you can say
restartTriggers = [ confFile ];
where ‘confFile’ is the derivation that generated the /etc file in
question.
For each statically configured interface, we now create a unit
‘<interface>-cfg.service’ which gets started as soon as the network
device comes up. Similarly, each bridge defined in
‘networking.bridges’ and virtual interface in ‘networking.interfaces’
is created by a service ‘<interface>.service’.
So if we have
networking.bridges.br0.interfaces = [ "eth0" "eth1" ];
networking.interfaces =
[ { name = "br0";
ipAddress = "192.168.1.1";
}
];
then there will be a unit ‘br0.service’ that depends on
‘sys-subsystem-net-devices-eth0.device’ and
‘sys-subsystem-net-devices-eth1.device’, and a unit ‘br0-cfg.service’
that depends on ‘sys-subsystem-net-devices-br0.device’.
So instead of:
boot.systemd.services."foo".serviceConfig =
''
StartLimitInterval=10
CPUShare=500
'';
you can say:
boot.systemd.services."foo".serviceConfig.StartLimitInterval = 10;
boot.systemd.services."foo".serviceConfig.CPUShare = 500;
This way all unit options are available and users can set/override
options in configuration.nix.
Enabled a bunch of units that ship with systemd. Also added an option
‘boot.systemd.units’ that can be used to define additional units
(e.g. ‘sshd.service’).
