The `network-link-${i.name}` units raced with other things trying to
configure the interface, or ran before the interface was available.
Instead of running our own set of shell scripts on boot, and hoping
they're executed at the right time, we can make use of udev to configure
the interface *while they appear*, by providing `.link` files in
/etc/systemd/network/*.link to set MACAddress and MTUBytes.
This doesn't require networkd to be enabled, and is populated properly
on non-networkd systems since
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/82941.
This continues clean-up work done in
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/85170 for the scripted networking
stack.
The only leftover part of the `network-link-${i.name}` unit (bringing
the interface up) is moved to the beginning of the
`network-addresses-${i.name}` unit.
Fixes: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/74471
Closes: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/87116

MariaDB has been updated to 10.4, MariaDB Galera to 26.4.
|
|
Before you upgrade, it would be best to take a backup of your database.
|
|
For MariaDB Galera Cluster, see <link xlink:href="https://mariadb.com/kb/en/upgrading-from-mariadb-103-to-mariadb-104-with-galera-cluster/">Upgrading
|
|
from MariaDB 10.3 to MariaDB 10.4 with Galera Cluster</link> instead.
|
|
Before doing the upgrade read <link xlink:href="https://mariadb.com/kb/en/upgrading-from-mariadb-103-to-mariadb-104/#incompatible-changes-between-103-and-104">Incompatible
|
|
Changes Between 10.3 and 10.4</link>.
|
|
After the upgrade you will need to run <literal>mysql_upgrade</literal>.
|
|
MariaDB 10.4 introduces a number of changes to the authentication process, intended to make things easier and more
|
|
intuitive. See <link xlink:href="https://mariadb.com/kb/en/authentication-from-mariadb-104/">Authentication from MariaDB 10.4</link>.
|
|
unix_socket auth plugin does not use a password, and uses the connecting user's UID instead. When a new MariaDB data directory is initialized, two MariaDB users are
|
|
created and can be used with new unix_socket auth plugin, as well as traditional mysql_native_password plugin: root@localhost and mysql@localhost. To actually use
|
|
the traditional mysql_native_password plugin method, one must run the following:
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
services.mysql.initialScript = pkgs.writeText "mariadb-init.sql" ''
|
|
ALTER USER root@localhost IDENTIFIED VIA mysql_native_password USING PASSWORD("verysecret");
|
|
'';
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
When MariaDB data directory is just upgraded (not initialized), the users are not created or modified.

Since this release there's an easy way to customize your PHP
|
|
install to get a much smaller base PHP with only wanted
|
|
extensions enabled. See the following snippet installing a
|
|
smaller PHP with the extensions <literal>imagick</literal>,
|
|
<literal>opcache</literal>, <literal>pdo</literal> and
|
|
<literal>pdo_mysql</literal> loaded:
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>

|
environment.systemPackages = [
|
|
(pkgs.php.withExtensions
|
|
({ all, ... }: with all; [

imagick
|

opcache
|
|
pdo
|
|
pdo_mysql
|
|
])
|
|
)
|
|
];</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
The default <literal>php</literal> attribute hasn't lost any
|
|
extensions. The <literal>opcache</literal> extension has been
|
|
added.

The updated <literal>php</literal> attribute is now easily

config.php.embed = true;

config.php.apxs2 = false;

The scripted networking system now uses <literal>.link</literal> files in
|
|
<literal>/etc/systemd/network</literal> to configure mac address and link MTU,
|
|
instead of the sometimes buggy <literal>network-link-*</literal> units, which
|
|
have been removed.
|
|
Bringing the interface up has been moved to the beginning of the
|
|
<literal>network-addresses-*</literal> unit.
|
|
Note this doesn't require <command>systemd-networkd</command> - it's udev that
|
|
parses <literal>.link</literal> files.
|
|
Extra care needs to be taken in the presence of <link xlink:href="https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkInterfaceNames#THE_.22PERSISTENT_NAMES.22_SCHEME">legacy udev rules</link>
|
|
to rename interfaces, as MAC Address and MTU defined in these options can only match on the original link name.
|
|
In such cases, you most likely want to create a <literal>10-*.link</literal> file through <xref linkend="opt-systemd.network.links"/> and set both name and MAC Address / MTU there.
