A NixOS system can now be constructed more easily based on a preexisting invocation of Nixpkgs. For example:
<programlisting>
inherit (pkgs.nixos {
boot.loader.grub.enable = false;
fileSystems."/".device = "/dev/xvda1";
}) toplevel kernel initialRamdisk manual;
</programlisting>
This benefits evaluation performance, lets you write Nixpkgs packages that depend on NixOS images and is consistent with a deployment architecture that would be centered around Nixpkgs overlays.

/*
* Evaluate a NixOS configuration using this evaluation of Nixpkgs.
*
* With this function you can write, for example, a package that
* depends on a custom virtual machine image.
*
* Parameter: A module, path or list of those that represent the
* configuration of the NixOS system to be constructed.
*
* Result: An attribute set containing packages produced by this
* evaluation of NixOS, such as toplevel, kernel and
* initialRamdisk.
* The result can be extended in the modules by defining
* extra options in system.build.
*
* Unlike in plain NixOS, the nixpkgs.config, nixpkgs.overlays and
* nixpkgs.system options will be ignored by default. Instead,
* nixpkgs.pkgs will have the default value of pkgs as it was
* constructed right after invoking the nixpkgs function (e.g. the
* value of import <nixpkgs> { overlays = [./my-overlay.nix]; }
* but not the value of (import <nixpkgs> {} // { extra = ...; }).
*
* If you do want to use the config.nixpkgs options, you are
* probably better off by calling nixos/lib/eval-config.nix
* directly, even though it is possible to set config.nixpkgs.pkgs.
*
* For more information about writing NixOS modules, see
* https://nixos.org/nixos/manual/index.html#sec-writing-modules
*
* Note that you will need to have called Nixpkgs with the system
* parameter set to the right value for your deployment target.
