(hurd-vm-activation): Generate SSH key for user ‘offloading’ and add authorize it via /etc/childhurd/etc/ssh/authorized_keys.d. (hurd-vm-configuration-offloading-ssh-key) (hurd-vm-guix-extension): New procedures. (hurd-vm-service-type): Add GUIX-SERVICE-TYPE extension. * gnu/tests/virtualization.scm (run-childhurd-test)[import-module?]: New procedure.

* services: hurd-vm: Disable password-based authentication for root.Ludovic Courtès2023-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | With offloading to a childhurd is enabled, allowing password-less root login in the childhurd to anyone amounts to providing write access to the host’s store to anyone. Thus, disable password-based root logins in the childhurd. * gnu/services/virtualization.scm (%hurd-vm-operating-system): Change ‘permit-root-login’ to 'prohibit-password. * gnu/tests/virtualization.scm (%childhurd-os): Provide a custom ‘os’ field for ‘hurd-vm-configuration’. * doc/guix.texi (Virtualization Services): Remove mention of password-less root login.

| * image: Introduce the mbr-hybrid-raw image type.Mathieu Othacehe2023-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Until 209204e23b39af09e0ea92540b6fa00a60e6a0ae and d57cab764122af69d52d8cc9c843456044e5d7bc, the default image type used by "guix system image" was an MBR image with an ESP partition. Having both an MBR image and an ESP partition is handy because the image will boot on most x86 based systems using legacy BIOS and/or UEFI. We now have a distinction between MBR images and EFI images. Introduce a new MBR hybrid image type and default to it to restore the default behaviour. This also fixes the images section of (gnu ci) that was trying to install a BIOS bootloader on an EFI, GPT image and failing to do so. Signed-off-by: Mathieu Othacehe <othacehe@gnu.org>

Unlike other system daemons, the PostgreSQL data directory is typically meant to persist across 'guix system reconfigure' and once created, you don't want it's UID or GID to change anymore. Furthermore, if you want to place the data directory on a network share and use NFSv4 with idmap, then the 'postgres' user must exist when the 'rpc.idmapd' daemon is launched; prior to mounting the share. And it needs to be possible to mount the share without configuring PostgreSQL. With NFSv3, the UID and GID typically needs to match those on the server. The added options allow for both of these scenarios: You can either create the user in (operating-system (users)) completely independently of the 'postgresql-service-type' (for instance to get your NFS setup working first prior to configuring your databases) - or "pin" it's UID / GID values. * gnu/services/databases.scm (<postgresql-configuration>)[create-account?] [uid, gid]: New fields.
