As far as I know, there's no stable equivalent of nix ping-store.

Since 831024e2b93 ("nixos/dhcpcd: assert if privSep && alternative
malloc"), this test has an assertion failure because dhcpcd (with
privsep enabled) is not compatible with the allocator used by the
hardened profile.
Since it's unclear[1] what to do about this for the hardened profile,
I propose doing the simplest thing possible to make the test eval,
which is to just disable dhcpcd privsep. It's very inconvenient when
trying to refactor the NixOS test infrastructure to have a test that
doesn't evaluate. Once the correct solution is found for using dhcpcd
with privsep with the hardened profile, this patch can be reverted.

The `nix.*` options, apart from options for setting up the
daemon itself, currently provide a lot of setting mappings
for the Nix daemon configuration. The scope of the mapping yields
convience, but the line where an option is considered essential
is blurry. For instance, the `extra-sandbox-paths` mapping is
provided without its primary consumer, and the corresponding
`sandbox-paths` option is also not mapped.
The current system increases the maintenance burden as maintainers have to
closely follow upstream changes. In this case, there are two state versions
of Nix which have to be maintained collectively, with different options
avaliable.
This commit aims to following the standard outlined in RFC 42[1] to
implement a structural setting pattern. The Nix configuration is encoded
at its core as key-value pairs which maps nicely to attribute sets, making
it feasible to express in the Nix language itself. Some existing options are
kept such as `buildMachines` and `registry` which present a simplified interface
to managing the respective settings. The interface is exposed as `nix.settings`.
Legacy configurations are mapped to their corresponding options under `nix.settings`
for backwards compatibility.
Various options settings in other nixos modules and relevant tests have been
updated to use structural setting for consistency.
The generation and validation of the configration file has been modified to
use `writeTextFile` instead of `runCommand` for clarity. Note that validation
is now mandatory as strict checking of options has been pushed down to the
derivation level due to freeformType consuming unmatched options. Furthermore,
validation can not occur when cross-compiling due to current limitations.
A new option `publicHostKey` was added to the `buildMachines`
submodule corresponding to the base64 encoded public host key settings
exposed in the builder syntax. The build machine generation was subsequently
rewritten to use `concatStringsSep` for better performance by grouping
concatenations.

The latest kernel does not guarantee a hardened version anymore,
see ga5341beb for the motivation.
|
|
Moving the service before multi-user.target (so the `hardened` test
continue to work the way it did before) can result in locking the kernel
too early. It's better to lock it a bit later and changing the test to
wait specifically for the disable-kernel-module-loading.service.

significantly overhaul tests to cover build-time-linking and
LD_PRELOAD use, simplifying the hardened nixos test to allow
it to reuse this test setup.

This has been in an unusable state since the switch to cgroups-v2.

The library does not depend on stdenv, that `stdenv` exposes `lib` is
an artifact of the ancient origins of nixpkgs.

Linux >= 5.8 improved /proc mount options. `hidepid=2` is now
displayed as `hidepid=invisible`

Related to #72828
Replaces and closes #76708
Looks like `nix ping-store` does not output anything anymore but still
fails when the connection does not work.

linux-hardened sets kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone=0 by default; see
anthraxx/linux-hardened@104f44058f058a395502192c4939645df6f52ecb.
This allows the Nix sandbox to function while reducing the attack
surface posed by user namespaces, which allow unprivileged code to
exercise lots of root-only code paths and have lead to privilege
escalation vulnerabilities in the past.
We can safely leave user namespaces on for privileged users, as root
already has root privileges, but if you're not running builds on your
machine and really want to minimize the kernel attack surface then you
can set security.allowUserNamespaces to false.
Note that Chrome's sandbox requires either unprivileged CLONE_NEWUSER or
setuid, and Firefox's silently reduces the security level if it isn't
allowed (see about:support), so desktop users may want to set:
boot.kernel.sysctl."kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone" = true;

nixos: configurable system-wide malloc

Introduces the option security.protectKernelImage that is intended to control
various mitigations to protect the integrity of the running kernel
image (i.e., prevent replacing it without rebooting).
This makes sense as a dedicated module as it is otherwise somewhat difficult
to override for hardened profile users who want e.g., hibernation to work.

This test exercises the linux_hardened kernel along with the various
hardening features (enabled via the hardened profile).
Move hidepid test from misc, so that misc can go back to testing a vanilla
configuration.
