+ <para>
+  NixOS supports both declarative and imperative styles of user management. In

 <programlisting>
-users.users.alice =

+     the nixpkgs manual.
+<!-- That's <xref linkend="ssec-stdenv-attributes"> were we to merge the manuals. -->
+     The old logic isn't but is easy to describe: dependencies were propagated
+     as the same type of dependency no matter what. In practice, that means
+     that many <function>propagatedNativeBuildInputs</function> should instead
+     be <function>propagatedBuildInputs</function>. Thankfully, that was and is
+     the least used type of dependency. Also, it means that some
+     <function>propagatedBuildInputs</function> should instead be
+     <function>depsTargetTargetPropagated</function>. Other types dependencies
+     should be unaffected.

-      The new logic, along with new types of dependencies that go with, is thoroughly documented in the "Specifying dependencies" section of the "Standard Environment" chapter of the nixpkgs manual.
-      <!-- That's <xref linkend="ssec-stdenv-attributes"> were we to merge the manuals. -->
-      The old logic isn't but is easy to describe: dependencies were propagated as the same type of dependency no matter what.
-      In practice, that means that many <function>propagatedNativeBuildInputs</function> should instead be  <function>propagatedBuildInputs</function>.
-      Thankfully, that was and is the least used type of dependency.
-      Also, it means that some <function>propagatedBuildInputs</function> should instead be <function>depsTargetTargetPropagated</function>.
-      Other types dependencies should be unaffected.

+     The <literal>clementine</literal> package points now to the free

+    <para>
+     The <literal>netcat</literal> package is now taken directly from OpenBSD's
+     <literal>libressl</literal>, instead of relying on Debian's fork. The new
+     version should be very close to the old version, but there are some minor
+     differences. Importantly, flags like -b, -q, -C, and -Z are no longer
+     accepted by the nc command.

+     The <varname>services.docker-registry.extraConfig</varname> object doesn't contain

+<para>FoundationDB (or "FDB") is a distributed, open source, high performance,
+transactional key-value store. It can store petabytes of data and deliver
+exceptional performance while maintaining consistency and ACID semantics
+(serializable transactions) over a large cluster.</para>
+
+<section><title>Configuring and basic setup</title>
+
+<para>To enable FoundationDB, add the following to your
+<filename>configuration.nix</filename>:
+
+<programlisting>
+services.foundationdb.enable = true;
+services.foundationdb.package = pkgs.foundationdb51; # FoundationDB 5.1.x
+</programlisting>
+</para>
+
+<para>The <option>services.foundationdb.package</option> option is required,
+and must always be specified. Because FoundationDB network protocols and
+on-disk storage formats may change between (major) versions, and upgrades must
+be explicitly handled by the user, you must always manually specify this
+yourself so that the NixOS module will use the proper version. Note that minor,
+bugfix releases are always compatible.</para>
+
+<para>After running <command>nixos-rebuild</command>, you can verify whether
+FoundationDB is running by executing <command>fdbcli</command> (which is added
+to <option>environment.systemPackages</option>):
+
+<programlisting>

+</para>
+
+<para>FoundationDB is run under the <command>foundationdb</command> user and
+group by default, but this may be changed in the NixOS configuration. The
+systemd unit <command>foundationdb.service</command> controls the
+<command>fdbmonitor</command> process.</para>
+
+<para>By default, the NixOS module for FoundationDB creates a single
+SSD-storage based database for development and basic usage. This storage engine
+is designed for SSDs and will perform poorly on HDDs; however it can handle far
+more data than the alternative "memory" engine and is a better default choice
+for most deployments. (Note that you can change the storage backend on-the-fly
+for a given FoundationDB cluster using <command>fdbcli</command>.)</para>
+
+<para>Furthermore, only 1 server process and 1 backup agent are started in the
+default configuration. See below for more on scaling to increase this.</para>
+
+<para>FoundationDB stores all data for all server processes under
+<filename>/var/lib/foundationdb</filename>. You can override this using
+<option>services.foundationdb.dataDir</option>, e.g.
+
+<programlisting>
+services.foundationdb.dataDir = "/data/fdb";
+</programlisting>
+
+</para>
+
+<para>Similarly, logs are stored under
+<filename>/var/log/foundationdb</filename> by default, and there is a
+corresponding <option>services.foundationdb.logDir</option> as well.</para>
+
+</section>
+
+<section><title>Scaling processes and backup agents</title>
+
+<para>Scaling the number of server processes is quite easy; simply specify
+<option>services.foundationdb.serverProcesses</option> to be the number of
+FoundationDB worker processes that should be started on the machine.</para>
+
+<para>FoundationDB worker processes typically require 4GB of RAM per-process at
+minimum for good performance, so this option is set to 1 by default since the
+maximum amount of RAM is unknown. You're advised to abide by this restriction,
+so pick a number of processes so that each has 4GB or more.</para>
+
+<para>A similar option exists in order to scale backup agent processes,
+<option>services.foundationdb.backupProcesses</option>. Backup agents are not
+as performance/RAM sensitive, so feel free to experiment with the number of
+available backup processes.</para>
+
+</section>
+
+<section><title>Clustering</title>
+
+<para>FoundationDB on NixOS works similarly to other Linux systems, so this
+section will be brief. Please refer to the full FoundationDB documentation for
+more on clustering.</para>
+
+<para>FoundationDB organizes clusters using a set of
+<emphasis>coordinators</emphasis>, which are just specially-designated worker
+processes. By default, every installation of FoundationDB on NixOS will start
+as its own individual cluster, with a single coordinator: the first worker
+process on <command>localhost</command>.</para>
+
+<para>Coordinators are specified globally using the
+<command>/etc/foundationdb/fdb.cluster</command> file, which all servers and
+client applications will use to find and join coordinators. Note that this file
+<emphasis>can not</emphasis> be managed by NixOS so easily: FoundationDB is
+designed so that it will rewrite the file at runtime for all clients and nodes
+when cluster coordinators change, with clients transparently handling this
+without intervention. It is fundamentally a mutable file, and you should not
+try to manage it in any way in NixOS.</para>
+
+<para>When dealing with a cluster, there are two main things you want to
+do:</para>
+
+<itemizedlist>
+  <listitem><para>Add a node to the cluster for storage/compute.</para></listitem>
+  <listitem><para>Promote an ordinary worker to a coordinator.</para></listitem>
+</itemizedlist>
+
+<para>A node must already be a member of the cluster in order to properly be
+promoted to a coordinator, so you must always add it first if you wish to
+promote it.</para>
+
+<para>To add a machine to a FoundationDB cluster:</para>
+
+<itemizedlist>
+  <listitem><para>Choose one of the servers to start as the initial coordinator.
+      </para></listitem>
+  <listitem><para>Copy the <command>/etc/foundationdb/fdb.cluster</command> file
+      from this server to all the other servers. Restart FoundationDB on all of
+      these other servers, so they join the cluster.</para></listitem>
+  <listitem><para>All of these servers are now connected and working together
+      in the cluster, under the chosen coordinator.</para></listitem>
+</itemizedlist>
+
+<para>At this point, you can add as many nodes as you want by just repeating
+the above steps. By default there will still be a single coordinator: you can
+use <command>fdbcli</command> to change this and add new coordinators.</para>
+
+<para>As a convenience, FoundationDB can automatically assign coordinators
+based on the redundancy mode you wish to achieve for the cluster. Once all the
+nodes have been joined, simply set the replication policy, and then issue the
+<command>coordinators auto</command> command</para>
+
+<para>For example, assuming we have 3 nodes available, we can enable double
+redundancy mode, then auto-select coordinators. For double redundancy, 3
+coordinators is ideal: therefore FoundationDB will make
+<emphasis>every</emphasis> node a coordinator automatically:</para>
+
+<programlisting>
+fdbcli> configure double ssd
+fdbcli> coordinators auto
+</programlisting>
+
+<para>This will transparently update all the servers within seconds, and
+appropriately rewrite the <command>fdb.cluster</command> file, as well as
+informing all client processes to do the same.</para>
+
+</section>
+
+<section><title>Client connectivity</title>
+
+<para>By default, all clients must use the current
+<command>fdb.cluster</command> file to access a given FoundationDB cluster.
+This file is located by default in
+<command>/etc/foundationdb/fdb.cluster</command> on all machines with the
+FoundationDB service enabled, so you may copy the active one from your cluster
+to a new node in order to connect, if it is not part of the cluster.</para>
+
+</section>
+
+<section><title>Client authorization and TLS</title>
+
+<para>By default, any user who can connect to a FoundationDB process with the
+correct cluster configuration can access anything. FoundationDB uses a
+pluggable design to transport security, and out of the box it supports a
+LibreSSL-based plugin for TLS support. This plugin not only does in-flight
+encryption, but also performs client authorization based on the given
+endpoint's certificate chain. For example, a FoundationDB server may be
+configured to only accept client connections over TLS, where the client TLS
+certificate is from organization <emphasis>Acme Co</emphasis> in the
+<emphasis>Research and Development</emphasis> unit.</para>
+
+<para>Configuring TLS with FoundationDB is done using the
+<option>services.foundationdb.tls</option> options in order to control the peer
+verification string, as well as the certificate and its private key.</para>
+
+<para>Note that the certificate and its private key must be accessible to the
+FoundationDB user account that the server runs under. These files are also NOT
+managed by NixOS, as putting them into the store may reveal private
+information.</para>
+
+<para>After you have a key and certificate file in place, it is not enough to
+simply set the NixOS module options -- you must also configure the
+<command>fdb.cluster</command> file to specify that a given set of coordinators
+use TLS. This is as simple as adding the suffix <command>:tls</command> to your
+cluster coordinator configuration, after the port number. For example, assuming
+you have a coordinator on localhost with the default configuration, simply
+specifying:</para>
+
+<programlisting>
+XXXXXX:XXXXXX@127.0.0.1:4500:tls
+</programlisting>
+
+<para>will configure all clients and server processes to use TLS from now
+on.</para>
+
+</section>
+
+<section><title>Backups and Disaster Recovery</title>
+
+<para>The usual rules for doing FoundationDB backups apply on NixOS as written
+in the FoundationDB manual. However, one important difference is the security
+profile for NixOS: by default, the <command>foundationdb</command> systemd unit
+uses <emphasis>Linux namespaces</emphasis> to restrict write access to the
+system, except for the log directory, data directory, and the
+<command>/etc/foundationdb/</command> directory. This is enforced by default
+and cannot be disabled.</para>
+
+<para>However, a side effect of this is that the <command>fdbbackup</command>
+command doesn't work properly for local filesystem backups: FoundationDB uses a
+server process alongside the database processes to perform backups and copy the
+backups to the filesystem. As a result, this process is put under the
+restricted namespaces above: the backup process can only write to a limited
+number of paths.</para>
+
+<para>In order to allow flexible backup locations on local disks, the
+FoundationDB NixOS module supports a
+<option>services.foundationdb.extraReadWritePaths</option> option. This option
+takes a list of paths, and adds them to the systemd unit, allowing the
+processes inside the service to write (and read) the specified
+directories.</para>
+
+<para>For example, to create backups in <command>/opt/fdb-backups</command>,
+first set up the paths in the module options:</para>
+
+<programlisting>
+services.foundationdb.extraReadWritePaths = [ "/opt/fdb-backups" ];
+</programlisting>
+
+<para>Restart the FoundationDB service, and it will now be able to write to
+this directory (even if it does not yet exist.) Note: this path
+<emphasis>must</emphasis> exist before restarting the unit. Otherwise, systemd
+will not include it in the private FoundationDB namespace (and it will not add
+it dynamically at runtime).</para>
+
+<para>You can now perform a backup:</para>
+
+<programlisting>
+$ sudo -u foundationdb fdbbackup start  -t default -d file:///opt/fdb-backups
+$ sudo -u foundationdb fdbbackup status -t default
+</programlisting>
+
+</section>
+
+<section><title>Known limitations</title>
+
+<para>The FoundationDB setup for NixOS should currently be considered beta.
+FoundationDB is not new software, but the NixOS compilation and integration has
+only undergone fairly basic testing of all the available functionality.</para>
+
+<itemizedlist>
+  <listitem><para>There is no way to specify individual parameters for
+      individual <command>fdbserver</command> processes. Currently, all server
+      processes inherit all the global <command>fdbmonitor</command> settings.
+      </para></listitem>
+  <listitem><para>Python bindings are not currently installed.</para></listitem>
+  <listitem><para>Ruby bindings are not currently installed.</para></listitem>
+  <listitem><para>Go bindings are not currently installed.</para></listitem>

+  <para>To add a new exporter, it has to be packaged first (see <literal>nixpkgs/pkgs/servers/monitoring/prometheus/</literal> for examples), then a module can be added. The postfix exporter is used in this example:</para>

+# In the following context a parameter is an attribute set that
+# contains a NixOS option and a render function. It also contains the
+# attribute: '_type = "param"' so we can distinguish it from other
+# sets.
+#
+# The render function is used to convert the value of the option to a
+# snippet of strongswan.conf. Most parameters simply render their
+# value to a string. For example, take the following parameter:
+#
+#   threads = mkIntParam 10 "Threads to use for request handling.";
+#
+# When a users defines the corresponding option as for example:
+#
+#   services.strongswan-swanctl.strongswan.threads = 32;
+#
+# It will get rendered to the following snippet in strongswan.conf:
+#
+#   threads = 32
+#
+# Some parameters however need to be able to change the attribute
+# name. For example, take the following parameter:
+#
+#   id = mkPrefixedAttrsOfParam (mkOptionalStrParam "") "...";
+#
+# A user can define the corresponding option as for example:
+#
+#   id = {
+#     "foo" = "bar";
+#     "baz" = "qux";
+#   };
+#
+# This will get rendered to the following snippet:
+#
+#   foo-id = bar
+#   baz-id = qux
+#
+# For this reason the render function is not simply a function from
+# value -> string but a function from a value to an attribute set:
+# { "${name}" = string }. This allows parameters to change the attribute
+# name like in the previous example.
