d6fee2a44a vmTools/test: fix pcmanfm instead of pan
This goes much quicker. Also disable parallel build for machines with
many cores to avoid running out of memory.

vmTools.buildRPM: properly derive source name
This fixes e.g. building the rpm of patchelf as in
pkgs/build-support/vm/test.nix.  The glob won't work if there are
multiple spec files but I don't think rpmbuild would work in that case
either.

runInLinuxVM: set 9p msize to 128K
This fixes the following warning from QEMU, by using the value that
will be the default in newer kernels[1].

> 9p: degraded performance: a reasonable high msize should be chosen
> on client/guest side (chosen msize is <= 8192). See
> https://wiki.qemu.org/Documentation/9psetup#msize for details.

For a runInLinuxVM derivation I have that does a large amount of
IO[2], this change results in a fairly small but repeatable speed
increase.

vmTools.runInLinuxVM: create fd symlinks in /dev
These are usually set up by systemd, but there's no systemd in the
VM.  /dev/fd is required for <(...) syntax in bash, and I'm sure lots
of things depend on the stdin/stdout/stderr links as well.

nixos/lib/qemu-flags: rename to qemu-common
The current name is misleading: it doesn't contain cli arguments,
but several constants and utility functions related to qemu.
This commit also removes the use of `with import ...` for clarity.

8929989614 lib: Clean up how linux and gcc config is specified
The `platform` field is pointless nesting: it's just stuff that happens
to be defined together, and that should be an implementation detail.

This instead makes `linux-kernel` and `gcc` top level fields in platform
configs. They join `rustc` there [all are optional], which was put there
and not in `platform` in anticipation of a change like this.

`linux-kernel.arch` in particular also becomes `linuxArch`, to match the
other `*Arch`es.

The next step after is this to combine the *specific* machines from
`lib.systems.platforms` with `lib.systems.examples`, keeping just the
"multiplatform" ones for defaulting.

3363377530 vmTools.debClosureGenerator: Fix non-determinism in dependency graph
By default, Perl versions since 5.8.1 use randomization to make hashes
resistant to complexity attacks.

That randomization makes building VM images such as ubuntu1804x86_64
non-deterministic because the (imported) derivations built by
deb/deb-closure.pl are not stable.

This can easily be observed by repeating the following sequence of
commands and noting the path of the image's .drv:

    nix-instantiate -E '(import <nixpkgs> {}).vmTools.diskImageFuns.ubuntu1804x86_64 {}'
    nix-store --delete /nix/store/*ubuntu-18.04-bionic-amd64.nix

One source of non-determinism is the handling of Provides/Replaces,
which depends on the order of iteration over %packages.  Here is a
diff showing the corresponding change in output:

     >>> awk
    -virtual awk: using original-awk
    -    original-awk: libc6 (>= 2.14)
    +virtual awk: using mawk
    +    mawk: libc6 (>= 2.14)

    -    mawk: libc6 (>= 2.14)
    ->>> libc6

This patch sorts packages by name for Provides/Replaces processing,
which seems to result in stable output.

(If the above turns out not to be sufficient, one could also set the
PERL_HASH_SEED and PERL_PERTURB_KEYS environment variables, documented
in 'perlrun', to disable Perl's built-in randomization.  Complexity
attacks are not an issue as we control and trust all inputs.)

vm: Remove runInWindowsVM implementation
Originally this was meant to support other Windows versions than just
Windows XP, but before I actually got a chance to implement this I left
the project that I implemented this for.

The code has been broken for years now and I highly doubt anyone is
interested in resurrecting this (including me), so in order to make this
less of a maintenance burden for everybody, let's remove it.

qemu-vm: fix inconsistent caching of xchg dirs
xchg is advertised as a bidirectional exchange dir, but file content
transfer from host to VM fails due to caching:
If a file is read in the VM and then modified on the host, subsequent
re-reads in the VM can yield old, cached data.
This is caused by the use of 9p's cache=loose mode that is explicitly
meant for read-only mounts.

9p doesn't provide any suitable cache modes, so fix this by disabling
caching.

Also, remove a now unnecessary sync in the test driver.

337cd5cc8a vmTools.fillDiskWithRPMs: fix cpio use
When updating to cpio-2.13 in fe758f5fa3,
a patch from SUSE was dropped. This patch was intended to resolve
CVE-2015-1197, and introduced the '--extract-over-symlink' option to
disable its own effects.

The CVE-2015-1197 was fixed in cpio-2.13 release[1] by other means,
making this patch useless.

Given that this patch is no longer used, we do not need to disable its
effects anymore with the `--extract-over-symlink` argument switch.

This Commit fixes #74984

treewide: use runtimeShell instead of stdenv.shell whenever possible
Whenever we create scripts that are installed to $out, we must use runtimeShell
in order to get the shell that can be executed on the machine we create the
package for. This is relevant for cross-compiling. The only use case for
stdenv.shell are scripts that are executed as part of the build system.
Usages in checkPhase are borderline however to decrease the likelyhood
of people copying the wrong examples, I decided to use runtimeShell as well.

runInLinuxVM: pkgs.linux -> kernel
There is a function params `kernel' intended to specify which kernel to use.
It defaults to `pkgs.linux`.
But when we override `kernel', compiling and using two kernels seems not to be the intendend bevavior.
