 @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | line 77 ;) | 15:34:13 |
 @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | Janne Heß: Shouldn't we just be letting systemd do that rather than having it skip it? | 15:35:05 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | yeah, that‘s what I‘m currently trying | 15:35:18 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | hmmm looks like my current bindmount magic doesn‘t do its magic anymore | 15:36:20 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | ah it does but I‘m holding it wrong | 15:38:23 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | Janne Heß: Why do we need the /run bind mount in initrd-nixos-activation.service? If systemd will move the mount for us, then /run/current-system/systemd/lib/systemd/system will exist as needed by the time switch-root gets to that point | 15:40:06 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | because the activation script needs to access a lot in /run | 15:40:23 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | it does? That seems weird | 15:40:31 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | like /run/current-system, booted-system, /run/secrets (for sops-nixos users like myself) | 15:40:42 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | ah /run/wrappers | 15:41:25 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | maybe we could run $closure/init in its own mount namespace or something | 15:42:13 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | Doesn't nixos-enter do all this logic itself anyway? | 15:43:07 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | nope, because we need to keep these mounts :D | 15:43:11 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | Janne Heß: Why? systemd will do the moves for us, and then they're moves instead of binds (dunno if that matters) | 15:43:35 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | new mounts are created that we must keep like /run/wrappers, /run/secrets.d (sops-nix again), /run/keys | 15:43:40 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | ohh | 15:43:45 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | yup+ | 15:43:53 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | I guess the moves aren't recursive | 15:43:53 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | but I have that working | 15:43:57 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | I wrote a recursive mount mover, that works surprisingly well | 15:44:13 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | How does the old initrd handle moving these? | 15:46:03 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | not at all because theactivation script is only run in stage 2 | 15:46:38 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | it just moves /run | 15:46:49 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | ah | 15:47:52 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | and yea if we want handover, we have to do activation in stage 1 | 15:48:00 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | well... | 15:48:11 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | actually | 15:48:13 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | I think I have nailed it | 15:48:25 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | incoming ideas for hacks | 15:48:24 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | the only oddity is that it cannot find my swap | 15:48:39 |
