nixos/sysctl: Enable Yama by default
Yama is a LSM which restricts debugging. This prevents processes from
snooping on another. It can be easily disabled with sysctl.
This was initially included in #14392 and disabled by default by
86721a5f78
.
This has been part of the hardened configuration, but many other distros
ship this for quite some time (Ubuntu for about ten years), so I'd say
it might make sense to enable this per default.

- Package `cloud-sql-proxy` was renamed to `google-cloud-sql-proxy` as it cannot be used with other cloud providers.;
|
||||
|
||||
- The Yama LSM is now enabled by default in the kernel, which prevents ptracing non-child processes.
|
||||
This means you will not be able to attach gdb to an existing process, but will need to start that process from gdb (so it is a child).
|
||||
Or you can set `boot.kernel.sysctl."kernel.yama.ptrace_scope"` to 0.
|
||||
|
||||
- Package `pash` was removed due to being archived upstream. Use `powershell` as an alternative.
|

|
||||
- `security.sudo.extraRules` now includes `root`'s default rule, with ordering
