NixOS is a Linux distribution, whose set of packages can also be used on other Linux systems and macOS. + +This release is supported until the end of June 2023, handing over to NixOS 23.05. + +To upgrade to the latest release follow the [upgrade chapter](#sec-upgrading). ## Highlights {#sec-release-22.11-highlights} -In addition to numerous new and upgraded packages, this release has the following highlights: +In addition to numerous new and upgraded packages, this release includes the following highlights: + +- Software that uses the `crypt` password hashing API is now using the implementation provided by [`libxcrypt`](https://github.com/besser82/libxcrypt) instead of glibc's, which enables support for more secure algorithms. + - Support for algorithms that `libxcrypt` [does not consider strong](https://github.com/besser82/libxcrypt/blob/v4.4.28/lib/hashes.conf#L41) are **deprecated** as of this release, and will be removed in NixOS 23.05. + - This includes system login passwords. Given this, we **strongly encourage** all users to update their system passwords, as you will be unable to login if password hashes are not migrated by the time their support is removed. + - When using `users.users.<name>.hashedPassword` to configure user passwords, run `mkpasswd`, and use the yescrypt hash that is provided as the new value. + - On the other hand, for interactively configured user passwords, simply re-set the passwords for all users with `passwd`. + - This release introduces warnings for the use of deprecated hash algorithms for both methods of configuring passwords. To make sure you migrated correctly, run `nixos-rebuild switch`. + +- The NixOS documentation is now generated from markdown. While docbook is still part of the documentation build process, it's a big step towards the full migration. + +- `aarch64-linux` is now included in the `nixos-22.11` and `nixos-22.11-small` channels. This means that when those channel update, both `x86_64-linux` and `aarch64-linux` will be available in the binary cache. + +- `aarch64-linux` ISOs are now available on the [downloads page](https://nixos.org/download.html). + +- `nsncd` is now available as a replacement of `nscd`. + + `nscd` is responsible for resolving hostnames, users and more in NixOS and has been a long standing source of bugs, such as sporadic network freezes. + + More context in this [issue](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/135888). + + Help us test the new implementation by setting `services.nscd.enableNsncd` to `true`. + + We plan to use `nsncd` by default in NixOS 23.05. + +- Linode cloud images are now supported by importing `${modulesPath}/virtualisation/linode-image.nix` and accessing `system.build.linodeImage` on the output. -- During cross-compilation, tests are now executed if the test suite can be executed - by the build platform. This is the case when doing “native” cross-compilation - where the build and host platforms are largely the same, but the nixpkgs' cross - compilation infrastructure is used, e.g. `pkgsStatic` and `pkgsLLVM`.

Use the `Token=` setting in your `systemd.network.networks.<name>.ipv6AcceptRAConfig` instead. The `systemd.network.networks.<name>.ipv6Prefixes.*.ipv6PrefixConfig` now also accepts the `Token=` setting. + +- `arangodb` versions 3.3, 3.4, and 3.5 have been removed because they are at EOL upstream. The default is now 3.10.0. Support for aarch64-linux has been removed since the target cannot be built reproducibly. By default `arangodb` is now built for the `haswell` architecture. If you wish to build for a different architecture, you may override the `targetArchitecture` argument with a value from [this list supported upstream](https://github.com/arangodb/arangodb/blob/207ec6937e41a46e10aea34953879341f0606841/cmake/OptimizeForArchitecture.cmake#L594). Some architecture specific optimizations are also conditionally enabled. You may alter this behavior by overriding the `asmOptimizations` parameter.

Running `mysql_upgrade` may be necessary. +- `k3s` supports `clusterInit` option, and it is enabled by default, for servers. + +- `percona-server56` has been removed. Please migrate to `mysql` or `mariadb` if possible. + +- `obs-studio` hase been updated to version 28. If you have packaged custom plugins, check if they are compatible. `obs-websocket` has been integrated into `obs-studio`. + +- `signald` has been bumped to `0.23.0`.

Use `features` instead, which defaults to `[ "lua54" "luau" ]`. + +- `ocamlPackages.ocaml_extlib` has been renamed to `ocamlPackages.extlib`. + +- `pkgs.fetchNextcloudApp` has been rewritten to circumvent impurities in e.g. tarballs from GitHub and to make it easier to + apply patches. This means that your hashes are out-of-date and the (previously required) attributes `name` and `version` + are no longer accepted. + +- The Syncthing service now only allows absolute paths---starting with `/` or + `~/`---for `services.syncthing.folders.<name>.path`. + In a future release other paths will be allowed again and interpreted + relative to `services.syncthing.dataDir`. + +- `services.github-runner` and `services.github-runners.<name>` gained the option `serviceOverrides` which allows overriding the systemd `serviceConfig`. If you have been overriding the systemd service configuration (i.e., by defining `systemd.services.github-runner.serviceConfig`), you have to use the `serviceOverrides` option now.

This has been a + common practice for a long time in other distributions. + +- `firefox`, `thunderbird` and `librewolf` now come with Wayland support by default. The `firefox-wayland`, `firefox-esr-wayland`, `thunderbird-wayland` and `librewolf-wayland` attributes are obsolete and have been aliased to their generic attribute. + - The `xplr` package has been updated from 0.18.0 to 0.19.0, which brings some breaking changes. See the [upstream release notes](https://github.com/sayanarijit/xplr/releases/tag/v0.19.0) for more details. +- Configuring multiple GitHub runners is now possible through `services.github-runners.<name>`. The options under `services.github-runner` remain, to configure a single runner. + - `github-runner` gained support for ephemeral runners and registrations using a personal access token (PAT) instead of a registration token. See `services.github-runner.ephemeral` and `services.github-runner.tokenFile` for details. -- A new module was added for the Saleae Logic device family, providing the options `hardware.saleae-logic.enable` and `hardware.saleae-logic.package`. +- A new module was added to provide hardware support for the Saleae Logic device family, providing the options `hardware.saleae-logic.enable` and `hardware.saleae-logic.package`. + +- ZFS module will no longer allow hibernation by default. + - This is a safety measure to prevent data loss cases like the ones described at [OpenZFS/260](https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/issues/260) and [OpenZFS/12842](https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/issues/12842). + - Use the `boot.zfs.allowHibernation` option to configure this behaviour. + +- Mastodon now automatically removes remote media attachments older than 30 days. This is configurable through `services.mastodon.mediaAutoRemove`. - The Redis module now disables RDB persistence when `services.redis.servers.<name>.save = []` instead of using the Redis default. -- Neo4j was updated from version 3 to version 4. See this [migration guide](https://neo4j.com/docs/upgrade-migration-guide/current/) on how to migrate your Neo4j instance. +- Neo4j was updated from version 3 to version 4. See upstream's [migration guide](https://neo4j.com/docs/upgrade-migration-guide/current/) for information on how to migrate your instance. + +- The `networking.wireguard` module now can set the mtu on interfaces and tag its packets with an fwmark. -- Matrix Synapse now requires entries in the `state_group_edges` table to be unique, in order to prevent accidentally introducing duplicate information (for example, because a database backup was restored multiple times). If your Synapse database already has duplicate rows in this table, this could fail with an error and require manual remediation. +- The option `overrideStrategy` was added to the different systemd unit options (`systemd.services.<name>`, `systemd.sockets.<name>`, …) to allow enforcing the creation of a dropin file, rather than the main unit file, by setting it to `asDropin`. + This is useful in cases where the existence of the main unit file is not known to Nix at evaluation time, for example when the main unit file is provided by adding a package to `systemd.packages`. + See the fix proposed in [NixOS's systemd abstraction doesn't work with systemd template units](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/135557#issuecomment-1295392470) for an example. -- `dockerTools.buildImage` deprecates the misunderstood `contents` parameter, in favor of `copyToRoot`. +- The `polymc` package has been removed due to a rogue maintainer. It has been + replaced by `prismlauncher`, a fork by the rest of the maintainers. For more + details, see [the PR that made this change](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/196624) and + [the issue detailing the vulnerability](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/196460). + Users with existing installations should rename `~/.local/share/polymc` to + `~/.local/share/PrismLauncher`. The main config file's path has also moved + from `~/.local/share/polymc/polymc.cfg` to + `~/.local/share/PrismLauncher/prismlauncher.cfg`. + +- The `bloat` package has been updated from unstable-2022-03-31 to unstable-2022-10-25, which brings a breaking change. See [this upstream commit message](https://git.freesoftwareextremist.com/bloat/commit/?id=887ed241d64ba5db3fd3d87194fb5595e5ad7d73) for details. + +- Synapse's systemd unit has been hardened. + +- The module `services.grafana` was refactored to be compliant with [RFC 0042](https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/blob/master/rfcs/0042-config-option.md). To be precise, this means that the following things have changed: + - The newly introduced option [](#opt-services.grafana.settings) is an attribute-set that + will be converted into Grafana's INI format. This means that the configuration from + [Grafana's configuration reference](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/setup-grafana/configure-grafana/) + can be directly written as attribute-set in Nix within this option. + - The option `services.grafana.extraOptions` has been removed. This option was an association + of environment variables for Grafana. If you had an expression like + + ```nix + { + services.grafana.extraOptions.SECURITY_ADMIN_USER = "foobar"; + } + ``` + + your Grafana instance was running with `GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_USER=foobar` in its environment. + + For the migration, it is recommended to turn it into the INI format, i.e. + to declare + + ```nix + { + services.grafana.settings.security.admin_user = "foobar"; + } + ``` + + instead. + + The keys in `services.grafana.extraOptions` have the format `<INI section name>_<Key Name>`. + Further details are outlined in the [configuration reference](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/setup-grafana/configure-grafana/#override-configuration-with-environment-variables). + + Alternatively you can also set all your values from `extraOptions` to + `systemd.services.grafana.environment`, make sure you don't forget to add + the `GF_` prefix though! + - Previously, the options [services.grafana.provision.datasources](#opt-services.grafana.provision.datasources) and + [services.grafana.provision.dashboards](#opt-services.grafana.provision.dashboards) expected lists of datasources + or dashboards for the [declarative provisioning](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/administration/provisioning/). + + To declare lists of + - **datasources**, please rename your declarations to [services.grafana.provision.datasources.settings.datasources](#opt-services.grafana.provision.datasources.settings.datasources). + - **dashboards**, please rename your declarations to [services.grafana.provision.dashboards.settings.providers](#opt-services.grafana.provision.dashboards.settings.providers). + + This change was made to support more features for that: + + - It's possible to declare the `apiVersion` of your dashboards and datasources + by [services.grafana.provision.datasources.settings.apiVersion](#opt-services.grafana.provision.datasources.settings.apiVersion) (or + [services.grafana.provision.dashboards.settings.apiVersion](#opt-services.grafana.provision.dashboards.settings.apiVersion)). + + - Instead of declaring datasources and dashboards in pure Nix, it's also possible + to specify configuration files (or directories) with YAML instead using + [services.grafana.provision.datasources.path](#opt-services.grafana.provision.datasources.path) (or + [services.grafana.provision.dashboards.path](#opt-services.grafana.provision.dashboards.path). This is useful when having + provisioning files from non-NixOS Grafana instances that you also want to + deploy to NixOS. + + __Note:__ secrets from these files will be leaked into the store unless you use a + [**file**-provider or env-var](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/setup-grafana/configure-grafana/#file-provider) for secrets! + + - [services.grafana.provision.notifiers](#opt-services.grafana.provision.notifiers) is not affected by this change because + this feature is deprecated by Grafana and will probably be removed in Grafana 10. + It's recommended to use `services.grafana.provision.alerting.contactPoints` instead. + +- The `services.grafana.provision.alerting` option was added. It includes suboptions for every alerting-related objects (with the exception of `notifiers`), which means it's now possible to configure modern Grafana alerting declaratively. + +- Synapse now requires entries in the `state_group_edges` table to be unique, in order to prevent accidentally introducing duplicate information (for example, because a database backup was restored multiple times). If your Synapse database already has duplicate rows in this table, this could fail with an error and require manual remediation. + +- The `diamond` package has been update from 0.8.36 to 2.0.15. See the [upstream release notes](https://github.com/bbuchfink/diamond/releases) for more details. + +- The `guake` package has been updated from 3.6.3 to 3.9.0, see the [changelog](https://github.com/Guake/guake/releases) for more details. + +- The `netlify-cli` package has been updated from 6.13.2 to 12.2.4, see the [changelog](https://github.com/netlify/cli/releases) for more details. + +- `dockerTools.buildImage`'s `contents` parameter has been deprecated in favor of `copyToRoot`. Use `copyToRoot = buildEnv { ... };` or similar if you intend to add packages to `/bin`. +- The `proxmox.qemuConf.bios` option was added, it corresponds to `Hardware->BIOS` field in Proxmox web interface. Use `"ovmf"` value to build UEFI image, default value remains `"bios"`. New option `proxmox.partitionTableType` defaults to either `"legacy"` or `"efi"`, depending on the `bios` value. Setting `partitionTableType` to `"hybrid"` results in an image, which supports both methods (`"bios"` and `"ovmf"`), thereby remaining bootable after change to Proxmox `Hardware->BIOS` field. + - memtest86+ was updated from 5.00-coreboot-002 to 6.00-beta2. It is now the upstream version from https://www.memtest.org/, as coreboot's fork is no longer available. +- Option descriptions, examples, and defaults writing in DocBook are now deprecated. Using CommonMark is preferred and will become the default in a future release. + +- The `documentation.nixos.options.allowDocBook` option was added to ease the transition to CommonMark option documentation. Setting this option to `false` causes an error for every option included in the manual that uses DocBook documentation; it defaults to `true` to preserve the previous behavior and will be removed once the transition to CommonMark is complete. + +- The Redis module now persists each instance's configuration file in the state directory, in order to support some more advanced use cases like Sentinel. + +- `protonup` has been aliased to and replaced by `protonup-ng` due to upstream not maintaining it. + - The udisks2 service, available at `services.udisks2.enable`, is now disabled by default. It will automatically be enabled through services and desktop environments as needed. This also means that polkit will now actually be disabled by default. The default for `security.polkit.enable` was already flipped in the previous release, but udisks2 being enabled by default re-enabled it. -- Add udev rules for the Teensy family of microcontrollers. +- Nextcloud has been updated to version **25**. Additionally the following things have changed + for Nextcloud in NixOS: + - For Nextcloud **>=24**, the default PHP version is 8.1. + - Nextcloud **23** has been removed since it will reach its [end of life in December 2022](https://github.com/nextcloud/server/wiki/Maintenance-and-Release-Schedule/d76576a12a626d53305d480a6065b57cab705d3d). + - If `system.stateVersion` is **>=22.11**, Nextcloud 25 will be installed by default. For older versions, + Nextcloud 24 will be installed. + - Please ensure that you only upgrade one major release at a time! Nextcloud doesn't support + upgrades across multiple versions, i.e. an upgrade from **23** to **25** is only possible + when upgrading to **24** first. + +- systemd-oomd is enabled by default. Depending on which systemd units have + `ManagedOOMSwap=kill` or `ManagedOOMMemoryPressure=kill`, systemd-oomd will + SIGKILL all the processes under the appropriate descendant cgroups when the + configured limits are exceeded. NixOS does currently not configure cgroups + with oomd by default, this can be enabled using + [systemd.oomd.enableRootSlice](options.html#opt-systemd.oomd.enableRootSlice), + [systemd.oomd.enableSystemSlice](options.html#opt-systemd.oomd.enableSystemSlice), + and [systemd.oomd.enableUserServices](options.html#opt-systemd.oomd.enableUserServices). + +- The `tt-rss` service performs two database migrations when you first use its web UI after upgrade. Consider backing up its database before updating. - The `pass-secret-service` package now includes systemd units from upstream, so adding it to the NixOS `services.dbus.packages` option will make it start automatically as a systemd user service when an application tries to talk to the libsecret D-Bus API. -- There is a new module for AMD SEV CPU functionality, which grants access to the hardware. +- The Wordpress module now has support for installing language packs through a new option, `services.wordpress.sites.<site>.languages`. + +- The default package for `services.mullvad-vpn.package` was changed to `pkgs.mullvad`, allowing cross-platform usage of Mullvad. `pkgs.mullvad` only contains the Mullvad CLI tool, so users who rely on the Mullvad GUI will want to change it back to `pkgs.mullvad-vpn`, or add `pkgs.mullvad-vpn` to their environment. + +- PowerDNS has been updated from v4.6.2 to v4.7.2. Please be sure to review the [Upgrade Notes](https://doc.powerdns.com/authoritative/upgrading.html#to-4-7-0-or-master) provided by upstream before upgrading. Worth specifically noting is that the new Catalog Zones feature comes with a mandatory schema change for the GSQL database backends, which has to be manually applied. + +- There is a new module for the `thunar` program (the Xfce file manager), which depends on the `xfconf` dbus service, and also has a dbus service and a systemd unit. The option `services.xserver.desktopManager.xfce.thunarPlugins` has been renamed to `programs.thunar.plugins`, and may be removed in a future release. + +- There is a new module for `xfconf` (the Xfce configuration storage system), which has a dbus service. + +- The Mastodon package has been upgraded to v4.0.0. See the [v4.0.0 release notes](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/releases/tag/v4.0.0) for a list of changes. On standard setups, no manual migration steps are required. Nevertheless, a database backup is recommended. + +- The `nomad` package now defaults to v1.3, which no longer has a downgrade path to v1.2 or older. + +- The `nodePackages` package set now defaults to the LTS release in the `nodejs` package again, instead of being pinned to `nodejs-14_x`. Several updates to node2nix have been made for compatibility with newer Node.js and npm versions and a new `postRebuild` hook has been added for packages to perform extra build steps before the npm install step prunes dev dependencies. + +- `boot.kernel.sysctl` is defined as a freeformType and adds a custom merge option for `net.core.rmem_max` (taking the highest value defined to avoid conflicts between 2 services trying to set that value). + +- The `mame` package does not ship with its tools anymore in the default output. They were moved to a separate `tools` output instead. For convenience, `mame-tools` package was added for those who want to use it. + +- A NixOS module for Firefox has been added which allows preferences and [policies](https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/blob/master/README.md) to be set. This also allows extensions to be installed via the `ExtensionSettings` policy. The new options are under `programs.firefox`. + +- The option `services.picom.experimentalBackends` was removed since it is now the default and the option will cause `picom` to quit instead. + +- `haskellPackages.callHackage` is not always invalidated if `all-cabal-hashes` changes, leading to less rebuilds of haskell dependencies. + +- `haskellPackages.callHackage` and `haskellPackages.callCabal2nix` (and related functions) no longer keep a reference to the `cabal2nix` call used to generate them. As a result, they will be garbage collected more often. + +<!-- To avoid merge conflicts, consider adding your item at an arbitrary place in the list instead. --> + +## New Services {#sec-release-22.11-new-services} + +- [alps](https://git.sr.ht/~migadu/alps), a simple and extensible webmail.
