Mathijs Kwik 7d964498b8 changed the way networking-providers plug themselves before "networking"

Mathijs Kwik 8bfe513e75 renamed "all-interfaces" to "networking"

Mathijs Kwik 77240b46f1 all-interfaces event
many services depend on other services that bring up network interfaces.
Examples are ipv6 tunneling clients or VPNs.

As there are multiple choices for these network-interface-providing services,
it's not nice to hardcore these deps in every service.
This change sets up a generic config option for this purpose.

providers (gw6c/gogoclient/openvpn) can plug into this to signal they bring up
an important interface.

Daemons that need these interfaces, can then depend on the 'all-interfaces' event,
instead of the individual services.

By default, the event fires when network-interfaces completes.

Eelco Dolstra a218a602d4 * Use openresolv to set the static nameserver configuration. Next
step is to get the DHCP client, OpenVPN etc. to use openresolv as
  well.

Peter Simons 32d6a441a5 modules/tasks/network-interfaces.nix: create network bridges with "forward delay" set to zero
This change obsoletes the need to increase the IPv6 "router_solicitations" parameter.

networking.interfaces and networking.localCommands.

Eelco Dolstra 403accc71f * Some hackery to make sure that router solicitations get through
after creating a bridge.
* Ignore errors (set +e) so that we can get rid of all the "|| true"
  clauses.

Eelco Dolstra 8ce36ffb3a * Use "ip" instead of "ifconfig" for setting up network interfaces,
since the latter is rather deprecated and has been unmaintained
  since 2001.  Note that "ip" doesn't know about classful addressing,
  so you can no longer get away with not specifying the subnet mask
  for explicitly configured interfaces.  So if you had

    networking.interfaces =
      [ { name = "eth0"; ipAddress = "192.168.1.1"; } ];

  this should be changed to

    networking.interfaces =
      [ { name = "eth0";
          ipAddress = "192.168.1.1";
          subnetMask = "255.255.255.0";
        }
     ];

  otherwise you end up with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.255.

already had the ipv6 kernel module loaded, because dhclient needs
  it.)

Eelco Dolstra f729f12e4e Some cleanups in the activation script:
* Moved some scriptlets to the appropriate modules.
* Put the scriptlet that sets the default path at the start, since it
  never makes sense not to have it there.  It no longer needs to be
  declared as a dependency.
* If a scriptlet has no dependencies, it can be denoted as a plain
  string (i.e., `noDepEntry' is not needed anymore).

Eelco Dolstra c089738bdc * Use the shadow' package instead of pwdutils', `pam_login' and
`su'.
* The `usermod' from `shadow' allows setting a supplementary group
  equal to the user's primary group, so the special hack for the
  `nixbld' group is no longer needed.
* Removed /etc/default/passwd since it's not used by the new passwd.
  The hash is configured in pam_unix.
* Move some values for `security.setuidPrograms' and
  `security.pam.services' to the appropriate modules.

Eelco Dolstra fa183e5472 * Expose networking.interfaces as an attribute set keyed on the
interface name through the derived option networking.ifaces.  This
  makes it easier to get information about specific interfaces
  (e.g. `nodes.router.config.networking.ifaces.eth2.ipAddress').
  Really networking.interfaces should be an attribute set.

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 e91d882a94 * Converted modules that were still using the old (concrete syntax)

  current NixOS module style and improved some option descriptions.

Eelco Dolstra b58682401e * Give a type to networking.interfaces.
* Simplified the pre-start script of the network-interfaces module.
* Removed wireless support from the network-interfaces module.  It
  only worked for static WEP configurations anyway, and AFAIK nobody
  used it.

Eelco Dolstra 9704472d1c Some hacks to support clean shutdowns of VMs that mount the Nix store
ove QEMU (and other NixOS instances that use a remote filesystem like
NFS):

* Don't take down the network interfaces during shutdown.
* Don't try to unmount the Nix store.  Usually, this doesn't work
  because it's still in use, but on remote filesystems like CIFS the
  `-f' umount flag actually works.

Eelco Dolstra fc9111fadf * Move various system initialisation tasks (e.g. mounting filesystems,
initialising network interfaces, etc.) to modules/tasks.  This
  follows the Upstart terminology: a service is a job that doesn't
  usually terminate (e.g. a daemon), while a task is a job that does
  some work and then exits.
