Motivation for this change
QEMU is able to start a Samba server to facilitate sharing files between the guest and host, but it needs to be told where the
smbd
binary is at compile time.Before this change, QEMU threw an error if run with
-net user,smb=/path/to/shared/folder
even ifsmbd
was in$PATH
:Despite the comment on this line, it doesn't appear to have worked:
nixpkgs/pkgs/applications/virtualization/qemu/default.nix
Line 103 in f5b0d6d
This change fixes that if built with
smbdSupport = true
.Things done
Note that I didn't test all the binaries because there's a lot of them, but I did test
qemu-system-x86_64
.sandbox
innix.conf
on non-NixOS)nix-shell -p nox --run "nox-review wip"
./result/bin/
