| baloo | Cursed idea:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/235874 | 03:12:31 |
 Robert Hensing (roberth) | baloo: not a big fan of abusing lib or pkgs for external purposes, but I guess this might be useful. Regarding the test, I think it should be ok to add a plain old derivation to all-tests, though we should improve how release.nix picks them up | 10:17:10 |
| Robert Hensing (roberth) | So that should solve the test in a test problem | 10:17:33 |
| Robert Hensing (roberth) | You could also speed up the test by not starting any vms. It's all about evaluation anyway so if we reach the build, we know that the lib wiring was ok | 10:18:39 |
| baloo | Ha I missed the all-tests I couldn’t find them yesterday night. I’ll send that later today. | 13:49:21 |
|  @federicodschonborn:matrix.org changed their profile picture. | 17:40:04 |
| baloo | Robert Hensing (roberth): I pushed an new commit, but I'm not sure that's much better. It still runs a vm to build, not too sure if I can make it not evaluate:w | 22:04:26 |

| baloo | nevermind, I can just pull the toplevel of the inner system >< | 22:06:26 |

 raitobezarius | Robert Hensing (roberth): you might want to take a look to https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/228346 | 16:17:32 |
| raitobezarius | (this PR is like only a "model PR" that I hacked to understand the current challenges of netboot testing) | 16:18:19 |
| raitobezarius | (directBoot is now merged, diskless VMs might be much simpler thanks to the persistent PR from nikstur, etc, etc.) | 16:18:36 |
| 12 Jun 2023 |
| baloo | would it be possible to get a review on https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/235874 ? Or maybe even a merge? :) | 16:34:21 |
| 13 Jun 2023 |
 chreekat | I commented :P | 18:05:32 |
| baloo | I'm not too sure I understand how the code is different from the description to be honest. | 18:39:43 |
| baloo | maybe only review the first commit, the second adds noise because it brings a test to cover the issue. | 18:40:08 |

(directBoot is now merged, diskless VMs might be much simpler thanks to the persistent PR from nikstur, etc, etc.) a rebase would reviewers I think | 10:27:31 |
| Robert Hensing (roberth) | * a rebase would help reviewers I think | 12:12:07 |

 jonge | hey friends, i created a PR that syncs the docstrings of the Machine class's methods and the nixos docs of the test driver. if anybody would be interested to look at this this would be a great help: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/242135 | 10:09:27 |
| raitobezarius | Will take a look when I can :-) | 10:53:52 |
| raitobezarius | Thank you! | 10:53:55 |

|  nikstur joined the room. | 14:29:36 |
| nikstur | Is there any simple way I can wait for a machine to reboot? I want to test a service that automatically reboots the machine on success (as unitConfig.SuccessAction = "reboot"; so the reboot is not initiated by the test itself | 14:31:18 |
| nikstur | I'll even take a complex way because I can't figure it out :D | 14:43:53 |
| raitobezarius | wait_for_unit("$unit.service") ? :p | 14:44:13 |
| raitobezarius | after a machine.crash() ? | 14:44:21 |
| nikstur | Works only if I trigger the crash from within the test. But the service running in the VM triggers the reboot | 15:01:01 |
| raitobezarius | hmm | 15:01:12 |
