 ElvishJerricco | that's... worse than I would like | 17:05:19 |
| ElvishJerricco | * oh gosh, our baseline systemd initrd has ballooned to 20M | 17:05:26 |
| ElvishJerricco | yea, scripted is only 11M | 17:06:07 |
| ElvishJerricco | anyway yea nano only adds about 200K to the initrd size | 17:06:53 |
| ElvishJerricco | that's probably acceptable... But I may want to go hunting down what's got initrd so big these days | 17:07:08 |
| ElvishJerricco | (mind you, I don't actually know that nano works if all you do is add it to initrdBin) | 17:07:41 |
| ElvishJerricco | ok yea it's definitely not that simple. Error opening terminal: vt220. | 17:13:28 |

| ElvishJerricco | Did this ever actually happen? | 18:19:38 |
 Arian | the decision happened. The result didn't | 18:50:41 |
 Ilan Joselevich (Kranzes) | Classico | 18:53:48 |
| Arian | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/216025. do nixos-containers break with networkd enabled? Or is the current impl just not ideal | 18:54:42 |
| Arian | if it’s the second; then I don’t think we have any blockers? | 18:54:51 |
| Arian | cc @m1cr0man:m1cr0man.com | 18:55:15 |
 m1cr0man | Iirc it is the second but I will test. Alas, that PR is broken when rebased due to changes needed in switch-to-configuration-ng. I wasn't able to complete it myself in the time I last had. See #nix-rfc-108:matrix.org | 19:22:08 |
| Arian | I don’t fully understand why we need to change stc. I naively assumed we could just call stc inside the container. but it has been a long time since I had all the context of 108 in my head | 19:25:36 |

I don’t fully understand why we need to change stc. I naively assumed we could just call stc inside the container. but it has been a long time since I had all the context of 108 in my head if you change the nixos config of a container, then sure you need to call stc inside the container.
if you change something else around the container (i.e. in the nspawn unit), you'll probably need to restart it. | 19:31:29 |
| Arian | why doesn’t that get handled by the systemd-nspawn@ unit already | 19:32:13 |
| Arian | it points to the nspawn config; which changes; triggers a restart | 19:32:23 |
| ma27 | because it depends on what has changed in the nspawn unit to know whether a restart or a reload (== call into the container to do stc) is needed, assuming we're talking about the 108 stuff.
it's been a while, so I don't remember the exact details though, sorry. | 19:37:21 |

 SigmaSquadron | Hi folks. I'm trying to use the PublicKeyFile setting in systemd.network.netdevs.<name>.wireguardPeers, as described in the manual page, but the module system keeps saying that's an invalid option. | 21:43:57 |
| SigmaSquadron | If I understood the module correctly, I think this has to be added manually in line 439-440 in nixos/modules/system/boot/networkd.nix? | 21:46:26 |
| m1cr0man | In reply to @arianvp:matrix.org
why doesn’t that get handled by the systemd-nspawn@ unit already The main problem is imperative containers rather than declarative ones. Since we're creating units ad hoc, we need to prevent the imperative ones getting stopped during config switch | 21:50:05 |

If I understood the module correctly, I think this has to be added manually in line 439-440 in nixos/modules/system/boot/networkd.nix? if it is just that easy, i've opened https://github.com/nixos/nixpkgs/pull/382953 | 21:57:31 |

| ElvishJerricco | ugh, this is why I really dislike how we type check networkd configs | 00:05:44 |
| ElvishJerricco | we really need a tool in upstream systemd for checking the validity of networkd files | 00:06:00 |
| Arian | I still have an experiment lying around for using systemd-analyze verify on systemd units at build time | 11:40:04 |
|  @stites:matrix.org left the room. | 12:54:41 |
 @denkn:denkn.at | Somebody know, if it is possible for services, which are oneshot to use sd_notify? Or it is more useful to set Type=notify, als if it is only a short running process, like started by a timer? | 15:09:04 |
 gdamjan | oneshot services are considered started/activated only when the process ends. so not sure if sd_notify makes sense for them | 15:18:28 |
