Motivation for this change

Fixes #67174.

Unfortunately, we have to duplicate INSTANCE = "%i" in both places due to how // is merging values: { env.a = 1; env.b = 2; } // { env.a = 3; } returns { env.a = 3; }. Let me know if there is a better way.

  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS

    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nix-review --run "nix-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)

You could either use recursiveUpdate instead of // on the top merge, or simply environment = unit.environment // ... locally, if you want.

@srhb Didn't know about recursiveUpdate, thanks for the tip!

Welcome!

Looks like the test succeeds now, but I think something is broken related to container shutdown. Compare these logs from this PR and current unstable respectively.

I've included everything from the last nixos-container destroy foo: https://gist.github.com/srhb/5355fd5b2970bf86596f6373530ba951

Good catch! I think this is the root cause:

machine# [ 47.117609] container foo[8800]: cat: /run/containers/foo.pid: No such file or directory

It seems like we, unfortunately, can't declare /run/containers as a runtime directory of the service because we are using it after it exited, so I reverted this change.

Tests should be fixed now.
