-# Liminix community spaces Code of Conduct
-
-As of Feb 2023, "RESPONSE TEAM" and "LEADERSHIP TEAM" in the text that follows
-both refer to me, Daniel Barlow, as there are not yet any other project members.
-
-Liminix is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone. We do not tolerate harassment of participants in any form.
-
-This code of conduct applies to all Liminix spaces, including the IRC channel, mailing lists, and Github forums, both online and off. Anyone who violates this code of conduct may be sanctioned or expelled from these spaces at the discretion of the RESPONSE TEAM.
-
-Some Liminix spaces may have additional rules in place, which will be made clearly available to participants. Participants are responsible for knowing and abiding by these rules.
-
-Harassment includes:
-
-*Offensive comments related to gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, mental illness, neuro(a)typicality, physical appearance, body size, age, race, or religion.
-*Unwelcome comments regarding a person’s lifestyle choices and practices, including those related to food, health, parenting, drugs, and employment.
-*Deliberate misgendering or use of ‘dead’ or rejected names.
-*Gratuitous or off-topic sexual images or behaviour in spaces where they’re not appropriate.
-*Physical contact and simulated physical contact (eg, textual descriptions like “*hug*” or “*backrub*”) without consent or after a request to stop.
-*Threats of violence.
-*Incitement of violence towards any individual, including encouraging a person to commit suicide or to engage in self-harm.
-*Deliberate intimidation.
-*Stalking or following.
-*Harassing photography or recording, including logging online activity for harassment purposes.
-*Sustained disruption of discussion.
-*Unwelcome sexual attention.
-*Pattern of inappropriate social contact, such as requesting/assuming inappropriate levels of intimacy with others
-*Continued one-on-one communication after requests to cease.
-*Deliberate “outing” of any aspect of a person’s identity without their consent except as necessary to protect vulnerable people from intentional abuse.
-*Publication of non-harassing private communication.
-Liminix prioritizes marginalized people’s safety over privileged people’s comfort. RESPONSE TEAM reserves the right not to act on complaints regarding:
-*‘Reverse’ -isms, including ‘reverse racism,’ ‘reverse sexism,’ and ‘cisphobia’
-*Reasonable communication of boundaries, such as “leave me alone,” “go away,” or “I’m not discussing this with you.”
-*Communicating in a ‘tone’ you don’t find congenial
-*Criticizing racist, sexist, cissexist, or otherwise oppressive behavior or assumptions
-
-## Reporting
-
-If you are being harassed by a member of Liminix, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact the RESPONSE TEAM at [email address or other contact point]. If the person who is harassing you is on the team, they will recuse themselves from handling your incident. We will respond as promptly as we can.
-
-This code of conduct applies to Liminix spaces, but if you are being harassed by a member of Liminix outside our spaces, we still want to know about it. We will take all good-faith reports of harassment by Liminix members, especially LEADERSHIP TEAM, seriously. This includes harassment outside our spaces and harassment that took place at any point in time. The abuse team reserves the right to exclude people from Liminix based on their past behavior, including behavior outside Liminix spaces and behavior towards people who are not in Liminix.
-
-In order to protect volunteers from abuse and burnout, we reserve the right to reject any report we believe to have been made in bad faith. Reports intended to silence legitimate criticism may be deleted without response.
-
-We will respect confidentiality requests for the purpose of protecting victims of abuse. At our discretion, we may publicly name a person about whom we’ve received harassment complaints, or privately warn third parties about them, if we believe that doing so will increase the safety of Liminix members or the general public. We will not name harassment victims without their affirmative consent.
-
-### Consequences
-
-Participants asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately.
-
-If a participant engages in harassing behavior, RESPONSE TEAM may take any action they deem appropriate, up to and including expulsion from all Liminix spaces and identification of the participant as a harasser to other Liminix members or the general public.

+
+* The "wan" configuration in modules/profiles/gateway.nix has changed:
+instead of passing options that are used to create a pppoe interface,
+callers should create a (pppoe or other) interface and pass that as
+the value of profile.gateway.wan. For the pppoe case this is now only
+very slightly more verbose, and it allows using the gateway profile

+liminix-rebuild is being deprecated. From hereon in, the preferred way

+
+Config options changed: if you had set config.hardware.dts.includes
+(maybe in an out-of-tree device port) to specify the search paths
+in which dtc finds include files, you will need to change this to 
+hardware.dts.includePaths.
+
+The "new" hardware.dts.includes option is now for dtsi files which
+should be merged into the device tree.

+Incremental updates changed again (but not massively). From hereon in,
+the preferred way to do an incremental update on an installed device
+with a writable filesystem is to build the updater output
+
+    nix-build  -I liminix-config=hosts/myhost.nix --argstr deviceName turris-omnia -A outputs.updater

+The fennel function (svc.open ...) now expects to be given the store

+directory. Thus

     Installation
     ============
 
-    Installation is currently a manual process (you need a :ref:`serial <serial>` conection and
-    TFTP) following the instructions at :ref:`system-outputs-ubimage`
+    Liminix on this device uses the UBI volume management system to
+    perform wear leveling on the flash. This is not set up from the
+    factory, so a one-time step is needed to prepare it before Liminix
+    can be installed.
 
-'';
+
+    Preparation
+    -----------
+
+    To prepare the device for Liminix you first need to use the
+    `OpenWrt UBI Installer
+    <https://github.com/dangowrt/owrt-ubi-installer>`_ image to
+    rewrite the flash layout. As of Jan 2025 there are two versions
+    of the installer available: the release version 1.0.2 and the
+    pre-release 1.1.3 and for Liminix you nee the pre-relese.
+    The release version of the installer creates UBI volumes
+    according to an older layout that is not compatible with
+    the Linux 6.6.67 kernel used in Liminix.
+
+    You can run the installer in one of two ways:
+    either follow the instructions to do it through the vendor web
+    interface, or you can drop to U-Boot and use TFTP
+
+    .. code-block:: console
+
+        MT7622> setenv ipaddr 10.0.0.6
+        MT7622> setenv serverip 10.0.0.1
+        MT7622> tftpboot 0x42000000  openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-initramfs-recovery-installer.itb
+        MT7622> bootm 0x42000000
+
+    This will write the new flash layout and then boot into a
+    "recovery" OpenWrt installation.
+
+    Building/installing Liminix
+    ----------------
+
+    The default target for this device is ``outputs.ubimage`` which
+    makes a ubifs image suitable for use with :command:`ubiupdatevol`.
+    To write this to the device we use the OpenWrt recovery system
+    installed in the previous step. In this configuration the
+    device assigns itself the IP address 192.168.1.1/24 on its LAN
+    ports and expects the connected computer to have 192.168.1.254
+
+    .. warning:: The `ubi0_7` device in these instructions is correct
+                 as of Dec 2024 (dangowrt/owrt-ubi-installer commit
+                 d79e7928). If you are installing some time later, it
+                 is important to check the output from
+                 :command:`ubinfo -a` and make sure you are updating
+                 the "liminix" volume and not some other one which had
+                 been introduced since I wrote this.

+
+    To make the new system bootable we also need to change some U-Boot variables.
+    ``boot_production`` needs to mount the filesystem and boot the FIT image
+    found there, and :code:`bootcmd` needs to be told _not_ to boot the rescue
+    image if there are records in pstore, because that interferes with
+    ``config.log.persistent``
+
+    .. code-block:: console
+
+        root@OpenWrt:~# fw_setenv orig_boot_production $(fw_printenv -n boot_production)
+        root@OpenWrt:~# fw_setenv orig_bootcmd $(fw_printenv -n bootcmd)
+        root@OpenWrt:~# fw_setenv boot_production 'led $bootled_pwr on ; ubifsmount ubi0:liminix && ubifsload ''${loadaddr} boot/fit && bootm ''${loadaddr}'
+        root@OpenWrt:~# fw_setenv bootcmd 'run boot_ubi'
+
+    For subsequent Liminix reinstalls, just run the
+    :command:`ubiupdatevol` command again. You don't need to repeat
+    the "Preparation" step and in fact should seek to avoid it if
+    possible, as it will reset the erase counters used for write
+    levelling.  Using UBI-aware tools is therefore preferred over any
+    kind of "factory" wipe which will reset them.

+    ***********
+
+    Hardware summary
+    ================
+
+    - MediaTek MT7981B (1300MHz)
+    - 256MB NAND Flash
+    - 1024MB RAM
+    - WLan hardware: Mediatek MT7976C
+
+    Status
+    ======
+
+    - Only tested over TFTP so far.
+    - WiFi (2.4G and 5G) works.
+    - 2.5G ethernet port works.
+
+    Limitations
+    ===========
+
+    - adding `he_bss_color="128"` causes `Invalid argument` for hostap
+    - nvme support untested
+    - I don't think the front LEDs work yet
+
+    Installation
+    ============
+
+      TODO: add instructions on how to boot directly from TFTP to memory
+      and how to install from TFTP to flash without going through OpenWrt.
+
+      The instructions below assume you can boot and SSH into OpenWrt:
+
+      Boot into OpenWrt and create a 'liminix' UBI partition:
+
+        root@OpenWrt:~# ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 --name=liminix --maxavsize
+
+    Remember the 'Volume ID' that was created for this new partition
+
+    Build the UBI image and write it to this new partition:
+
+        $ nix-build -I liminix-config=./my-configuration.nix  --arg device "import ./devices/openwrt-one" -A outputs.default
+        $ cat result/rootfs | ssh root@192.168.1.1 "cat > /tmp/rootfs"
+        $ ssh root@192.168.1.1
+        root@OpenWrt:~# ubiupdatevol /dev/ubi0_X /tmp/rootfs # replace X with the volume id, if needed check with `ubinfo`
+
+    Reboot into the U-Boot prompt and boot with:
+
+        OpenWrt One> ubifsmount ubi0:liminix && ubifsload ''${loadaddr} boot/fit && bootm ''${loadaddr}'
+
+    If this works, reboot into OpenWrt and configure U-Boot to boot ubifs by default:
+
+        root@OpenWrt:~# fw_setenv orig_boot_production $(fw_printenv -n boot_production)
+        root@OpenWrt:~# fw_setenv boot_production 'led white on ; ubifsmount ubi0:liminix && ubifsload ''${loadaddr} boot/fit && bootm ''${loadaddr}'
+
+    Troubleshooting
+    ===============
+
+      The instructions above assume you can boot and SSH into the (recovery)
+      OpenWrt installation. If you have broken your device to the point where that
+      is no longer possible, you could re-install OpenWrt, but probably you could
+      also install directly from U-Boot:

+== System Administration
+
+=== Services on a running system
+
+Liminix services are built on s6-rc, which is itself layered on s6.
+Services are defined at build time in your configuration (see
+<<_services>> for information) and can't be added
+to/changed at runtime, but to monitor events or diagnose problems you
+may need to inspect them on the running system. Here are some of the
+most commonly used s6,-rc commands:
+
+.Service management quick reference
+[width="100%",cols="55%,45%",options="header",]
+|===
+|What |How
+|List all running services |`+s6-rc -a list+`
+
+|List all services that are *not* running |`+s6-rc -da list+`
+
+|List services that `+wombat+` depends on
+|`+s6-rc-db dependencies wombat+`
+
+|... transitively |`+s6-rc-db all-dependencies wombat+`
+
+|List services that depend on service `+wombat+`
+|`+s6-rc-db -d dependencies wombat+`
+
+|... transitively |`+s6-rc-db -d all-dependencies wombat+`
+
+|Stop service `+wombat+` and everything depending on it
+|`+s6-rc -d change wombat+`
+
+|Start service `+wombat+` (but not any services depending on it)
+|`+s6-rc -u change wombat+`
+
+|Start service `+wombat+` and all* services depending on it
+|`+s6-rc-up-tree wombat+`
+|===
+
+`+s6-rc-up-tree+` brings up a service and all services that depend on
+it, except for any services that depend on a "controlled" service that
+is not currently running. Controlled services are not started at boot
+time but in response to external events (e.g. plugging in a particular
+piece of hardware) so you probably don't want to be starting them by
+hand if the conditions aren't there.
+
+A service may be *up* or *down* (there are no intermediate states like
+"started" or "stopping" or "dying" or "cogitating"). Some (but not all)
+services have "readiness" notifications: the dependents of a service
+with a readiness notification won't be started until the service signals
+(by writing to a nominated file descriptor) that it's prepared to start
+work. Most services defined by Liminix also have a `+timeout-up+`
+parameter, which means that if a service has readiness notifications and
+doesn't become ready in the allotted time (defaults 20 seconds) it will
+be terminated and its state set to *down*.
+
+If the process providing a service dies, it will be restarted
+automatically. Liminix does not automatically set it to *down*.
+
+(If the process providing a service dies without ever notifying
+readiness, Liminix will restart it as many times as it has to until the
+timeout period elapses, and then stop it and mark it down.)
+
+==== Controlled services
+
+*Controlled* services are those which are started/stopped on demand by a
+*controller* (another service) instead of being started at boot time.
+For example:
+
+* `+svc.uevent-rule.build+` creates a controlled service which is active
+when a particular hardware device (identified by uevent/sysfs directory)
+is present.
+* `+svc.round-robin.build+` creates a service controller that invokes
+two or more services in turn, running the next one when the process
+providing the previous one exits. We use this for failover from one
+network connection to a backup connection, for example.
+* `+svc.health-check.build+` creates a service controller that runs a
+controlled service and periodically tests whether it is healthy by
+running an external health check command or script. If the check command
+repeatedly fails, the controlled service is restarted.
++
+The Configuration section of the manual describes controlled services in
+more detail. Some operational considerations
+* `+round-robin+` detects a service status by looking at its `+outputs+`
+directory, so it won't work unless the service creates some outputs.
+This is considered a bug and will be fixed in a future release
+* `+health-check+` works for longruns but not for oneshots, as it
+internally relies on `+s6-svc+` to restart the process
+
+==== Logs
+
+Logs for all services are collated into `+/run/log/current+`. The log
+file is rotated when it reaches a threshold size, into another file in
+the same directory whose name contains a TAI64 timestamp.
+
+Each log line is prefixed with a TAI64 timestamp and the name of the
+service, if it is a longrun. If it is a oneshot, a timestamp and the
+name of some other service. To convert the timestamp into a
+human-readable format, use `+s6-tai64nlocal+`.

+----
+
+===== Log persistence
+
+Logs written to `+/run/log/+` will not survive a reboot or crash, as it
+is an ephemeral filesystem.
+
+On supported hardware you can enable logging to
+https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/ABI/testing/pstore[pstore]
+which means the most recent log messages will be preserved on reboot.
+Set the config option `+logging.persistent.enable = true+` to log
+messages to `+/dev/pmsg0+` as well as to the regular log. This is a
+circular buffer, so when it fills up newer messages will overwrite the
+oldest messages.
+
+Logs found in pstore after a reboot will be moved at startup to
+`+/run/log/previous-boot+`
+
+=== Updating an installed system
+
+If your system has a writable root filesystem (JFFS2, btrfs etc
+-anything but squashfs), we have mechanisms for in-places updates
+analogous to `+nixos-rebuild+`, but the operation is a bit different
+because it expects to run on a build machine and then copy to the host
+device using `+ssh+`.
+
+To use this, build the `+outputs.updater+` target and then run the
+`+update.sh+` script it generates.
+
+[source,console]
+----
+nix-build -I liminix-config=./my-configuration.nix \
+   --arg device "import ./devices/mydevice" \
+   -A outputs.updater
+./result/bin/update.sh root@the-device 
+----
+
+The update script uses min-copy-closure to copy new or changed packages
+to the device, then (perhaps) reboots it. The reboot behaviour can be
+affected by flags:
+
+* [.title-ref]#--no-reboot# will cause it not to reboot at all, if you
+would rather do that yourself. Note that none of the newly-installed or
+updated services will be running until you do.
+* [.title-ref]#--fast# causes it tn not do a full reboot, but instead to
+restart only the services that have been changed. This will restart all
+of the services that have updated store paths (and anything that depends
+on them), but will not affect services that haven't changed.
+
+It doesn't delete old packages automatically: to do that run
+`+min-collect-garbage+`, which will delete any packages not in the
+current system closure. Note that Liminix does not have the NixOS
+concept of environments or generations, and there is no way back from
+this except for building the previous configuration again.
+
+==== Caveats
+
+* it needs there to be enough free space on the device for all the new
+packages in addition to all the packages already on it - which may be a
+problem if there is little flash storage or if a lot of things have
+changed (e.g. a new version of nixpkgs).
+* it may not be able to upgrade the kernel: this is device-dependent. If
+your device boots from a kernel image on a raw MTD partition or or UBI
+volume, update.sh is unable to alter the kernel partition. If your
+device boots from a kernel inside the filesystem (e.g. using
+bootloader.extlinux or bootloder.fit) then the kernel will be upgraded
+along with the userland
+
+==== Recovery/downgrades
+
+The `+update.sh+` script also creates a timestamped symlink on the
+device which points to the system configuration it installs. If you
+install a configuration that doesn't work, you can revert to any other
+installed configuration by
+
+[arabic]
+. booting to some kind of rescue or recovery system (which may be some
+vendor-provided rescue option, or your own recovery system perhaps based
+on `+examples/recovery.nix+`) and mounting your Liminix filesystem on
+/mnt
+. picking another previously-installed configuration that _link:[did]
+work, and switching back to it:
+
+[source,console]
+----
+# ls  -ld /mnt/*configuration
+lrwxrwxrwx    1        90 /mnt/20252102T182104.configuration -> nix/store/v1w0h4zw65ah4c2r0k7nyy125qrxhq78-system-configuration-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl
+lrwxrwxrwx    1        90 /mnt/20251802T181822.configuration -> nix/store/wqjl9s9xljl2wg8257292zghws9ssidk-system-configuration-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl
+# : 20251802T181822 is the working system, so reinstall it
+# /mnt/20251802T181822.configuration/bin/install /mnt
+# umount /mnt
+# reboot
+----
+
+This will install the previous configuration's activation binary into
+/bin, and copy its kernel and initramfs into /boot. Note that it depends
+on the previous system not having been garbage-collected.
+
+==== Adding packages
+
+If you simply wish to add a package without any change to services, you
+can call `+min-copy-closure+` directly to install any package in Nixpkgs
+or in the Liminix overlay
+
+[source,console]
+----
+nix-build -I liminix-config=./my-configuration.nix \
+ --arg device "import ./devices/mydevice" -A pkgs.tcpdump
+
+nix-shell -p min-copy-closure root@the-device result/
+----
+
+Note that this only copies the package and its dependencies to the
+device: it doesn't update any profile to add it to `+$PATH+`
+
+[reftext="Levitate"]
+[[levitate]]
+=== Levitate: Reinstalling on a running system
+
+Liminix is initially installed from a monolithic `+firmware.bin+` - and
+unless you're running a writable filesystem, the only way to update it
+is to build and install a whole new `+firmware.bin+`. However, you
+probably would prefer not to have to remove it from its installation
+site, unplug it from the network and stick serial cables in it all over
+again.
+
+It is not (generally) safe to install a new firmware onto the flash
+partitions that the active system is running on. To address this we have
+`+levitate+`, which a way for a running Liminix system to "soft restart"
+into a ramdisk running only a limited set of services, so that the main
+partitions can then be safely flashed.
+
+==== Configuration
+
+Levitate _needs to be configured when you create the initial system_ to
+specify which services/packages/etc to run in maintenance mode. Most
+likely you want to configure a network interface and an ssh for example
+so that you can login to reflash it.
+
+[source,nix]
+----
+defaultProfile.packages = with pkgs; [
+  ...
+  (levitate.override {
+    config  = {
+      services = {
+        inherit (config.services) dhcpc sshd watchdog;
+      };
+      defaultProfile.packages = [ mtdutils ];
+      users.root = config.users.root;
+    };
+  })
+];
+----
+
+==== Use
+
+Connect (with ssh, probably) to the running Liminix system that you wish
+to upgrade.
+
+[source,console]
+----
+bash$ ssh root@the-device
+----
+
+Run `+levitate+`. This takes a little while (perhaps a few tens of
+seconds) to execute, and copies all config required for maintenance mode
+to `+/run/maintenance+`.
+
+[source,console]
+----
+# levitate 
+----
+
+Reboot into maintenance mode. You will be logged out
+
+[source,console]
+----
+# reboot
+----
+
+Connect to the device again - note that the ssh host key will have
+changed.
+
+[source,console]
+----
+# ssh -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null root@the-device
+----
+
+Check we're in maintenance mode
+
+[source,console]
+----
+# cat /etc/banner 
+
+LADIES AND GENTLEMEN WE ARE FLOATING IN SPACE
+
+Most services are disabled. The system is operating
+with a ram-based root filesystem, making it safe to
+overwrite the flash devices in order to perform
+upgrades and maintenance.
+
+Don't forget to reboot when you have finished.
+----
+
+Perform the upgrade, using flashcp. This is an example, your device will
+differ
+
+[source,console]
+----
+# cat /proc/mtd

-
-Flashing and updating
-*********************
-
-
-
-Flashing from Liminix
-=====================
-
-The flash procedure from an existing Liminix-system has two steps.
-First we reboot the device (using "kexec") into an "ephemeral"
-RAM-based version of the new configuration, then when we're happy it
-works we can flash the image - and if it doesn't work we can reboot
-the device again and it will boot from the old image.
-
-
-Building the RAM-based image
-----------------------------
-
-To create the ephemeral image, build ``outputs.kexecboot`` instead of
-``outputs.default``.  This generates a directory containing the root
-filesystem image and kernel, along with an executable called `kexec`
-and a `boot.sh` script that runs it with appropriate arguments.
-
-For example
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   nix-build -I liminix-config=./examples/arhcive.nix \
-     --arg device "import ./devices/gl-ar750"
-     -A outputs.kexecboot && \
-     (tar chf - result | ssh root@the-device tar -C /run -xvf -)
-
-and then login to the device and run
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   cd /run/result
-   sh ./boot.sh .
-
-
-This will load the new kernel and map the root filesystem into a RAM
-disk, then start executing the new kernel. *This is effectively a
-reboot - be sure to close all open files and finish anything else
-you were doing first.*
-
-If the new system crashes or is rebooted, then the device will revert
-to the old configuration it finds in flash.
-
-
-Building the second (permanent) image
--------------------------------------
-
-While running in the kexecboot system, you can build the permanent
-image and copy it to the device with :command:`ssh`
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   build-machine$ nix-build -I liminix-config=./examples/arhcive.nix \
-     --arg device "import ./devices/gl-ar750"
-     -A outputs.default && \
-     (tar chf - result | ssh root@the-device tar -C /run -xvf -)
-
-   build-machine$ tar chf - result/firmware.bin | \
-    ssh root@the-device tar -C /run -xvf -
-
-Next you need to connect to the device and locate the "firmware"
-partition, which you can do with a combination of :command:`dmesg`
-output and the contents of :file:`/proc/mtd`
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   <5>[    0.469841] Creating 4 MTD partitions on "spi0.0":

-"I know my new image is good, can I skip the intermediate step?"
-----------------------------------------------------------------
-
-In addition to giving you a chance to see if the new image works, this
-two-step process ensures that you're not copying the new image over
-the top of the active root filesystem. Sometimes it works, but you
-will at least need physical access to the device to power-cycle it
-because it will be effectively frozen afterwards.
-
-
-Flashing from the boot monitor
-==============================
-
-If you are prepared to open the device and have a TTL serial adaptor
-of some kind to connect it to, you can probably use U-Boot and a TFTP
-server to download and flash the image.  This is quite
-hardware-specific, and sometimes involves soldering: please refer
-to :ref:`serial`.
-
-
-Flashing from OpenWrt
-=====================
-
-.. CAUTION:: Untested! A previous version of these instructions
-	     (without the -e flag) led to bricking the device
-	     when flashing a jffs2 image. If you are reading
-	     this message, nobody has yet reported on whether the
-	     new instructions are any better.
-
-If your device is running OpenWrt then it probably has the
-:command:`mtd` command installed. After transferring the image onto the
-device using e.g. :command:`ssh`,  you can run it as follows:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   mtd -e -r write /tmp/firmware.bin firmware
-
-The options to this command are for "erase before writing" and "reboot
-after writing".
-
-For more information, please see the `OpenWrt manual <https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/installation/sysupgrade.cli>`_ which may also contain (hardware-dependent) instructions on how to flash an image using the vendor firmware - perhaps even from a web interface.
-
-Updating an installed system (JFFS2)
-************************************
-
-
-Adding packages
-===============
-
-If your device is running a JFFS2 root filesystem, you can build
-extra packages for it on your build system and copy them to the
-device: any package in Nixpkgs or in the Liminix overlay is available
-with the ``pkgs`` prefix:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    nix-build -I liminix-config=./my-configuration.nix \
-     --arg device "import ./devices/mydevice" -A pkgs.tcpdump
-
-    nix-shell -p min-copy-closure root@the-device result/
-
-Note that this only copies the package to the device: it doesn't update
-any profile to add it to ``$PATH``
-
-
-Rebuilding the system
-=====================
-
-:command:`liminix-rebuild` is the Liminix analogue of :command:`nixos-rebuild`, although its operation is a bit different because it expects to run on a build machine and then copy to the host device. Run it with the same ``liminix-config`` and ``device`` parameters as you would run :command:`nix-build`, and it will build any new/changed packages and then copy them to the device using SSH. For example:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-     liminix-rebuild root@the-device  -I liminix-config=./examples/rotuer.nix --arg device "import ./devices/gl-ar750"
-
-This will
-
-* build anything that needs building
-* copy new or changed packages to the device
-* reboot the device
-
-It doesn't delete old packages automatically: to do that run
-:command:`min-collect-garbage`, which will delete any packages not in
-the current system closure. Note that Liminix does not have the NixOS
-concept of environments or generations, and there is no way back from
-this except for building the previous configuration again.
-
-
-Caveats
--------
-
-* it needs there to be enough free space on the device for all the new
-  packages in addition to all the packages already on it - which may be
-  a problem if a lot of things have changed (e.g. a new version of
-  nixpkgs).
-
-* it cannot upgrade the kernel, only userland

+= Code of Conduct
+
+NOTE: As of Feb 2023, "`RESPONSE TEAM`" and "`LEADERSHIP TEAM`" in the text
+that follows both refer to me, Daniel Barlow, as the project leader.
+
+Liminix is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for
+everyone. We do not tolerate harassment of participants in any form.
+
+This code of conduct applies to all Liminix spaces, including the IRC
+channel, mailing lists, and other forums, both online and off. Anyone
+who violates this code of conduct may be sanctioned or expelled from
+these spaces at the discretion of the RESPONSE TEAM.
+
+Some Liminix spaces may have additional rules in place, which will be
+made clearly available to participants. Participants are responsible for
+knowing and abiding by these rules.
+
+Harassment includes:
+
+* Offensive comments related to gender, gender identity and expression,
+sexual orientation, disability, mental illness, neuro(a)typicality,
+physical appearance, body size, age, race, or religion.
+* Unwelcome comments regarding a person’s lifestyle choices and
+practices, including those related to food, health, parenting, drugs,
+and employment.
+* Deliberate misgendering or use of '`dead`' or rejected names.
+* Gratuitous or off-topic sexual images or behaviour in spaces where
+they’re not appropriate.
+* Physical contact and simulated physical contact (eg, textual
+descriptions like "`__hug__`" or "`__backrub__`") without consent or
+after a request to stop.
+* Threats of violence.
+* Incitement of violence towards any individual, including encouraging a
+person to commit suicide or to engage in self-harm.
+* Deliberate intimidation.
+* Stalking or following.
+* Harassing photography or recording, including logging online activity
+for harassment purposes.
+* Sustained disruption of discussion.
+* Unwelcome sexual attention.
+* Pattern of inappropriate social contact, such as requesting/assuming
+inappropriate levels of intimacy with others
+* Continued one-on-one communication after requests to cease.
+* Deliberate "`outing`" of any aspect of a person’s identity without
+their consent except as necessary to protect vulnerable people from
+intentional abuse.
+* Publication of non-harassing private communication.
+
+Liminix prioritizes marginalized people’s safety over privileged
+people’s comfort. RESPONSE TEAM reserves the right not to act on
+complaints regarding:
+
+* '`Reverse`' -isms, including '`reverse racism,`' '`reverse sexism,`'
+and '`cisphobia`'
+* Reasonable communication of boundaries, such as "`leave me alone,`"
+"`go away,`" or "`I’m not discussing this with you.`"
+* Communicating in a '`tone`' you don’t find congenial
+* Criticizing racist, sexist, cissexist, or otherwise oppressive
+behavior or assumptions
+
+== Reporting
+
+If you are being harassed by a member of Liminix, notice that someone
+else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact the
+RESPONSE TEAM at [email address or other contact point]. If the person
+who is harassing you is on the team, they will recuse themselves from
+handling your incident. We will respond as promptly as we can.
+
+This code of conduct applies to Liminix spaces, but if you are being
+harassed by a member of Liminix outside our spaces, we still want to
+know about it. We will take all good-faith reports of harassment by
+Liminix members, especially LEADERSHIP TEAM, seriously. This includes
+harassment outside our spaces and harassment that took place at any
+point in time. The abuse team reserves the right to exclude people from
+Liminix based on their past behavior, including behavior outside Liminix
+spaces and behavior towards people who are not in Liminix.
+
+In order to protect volunteers from abuse and burnout, we reserve the
+right to reject any report we believe to have been made in bad faith.
+Reports intended to silence legitimate criticism may be deleted without
+response.
+
+We will respect confidentiality requests for the purpose of protecting
+victims of abuse. At our discretion, we may publicly name a person about
+whom we’ve received harassment complaints, or privately warn third
+parties about them, if we believe that doing so will increase the safety
+of Liminix members or the general public. We will not name harassment
+victims without their affirmative consent.
+
+== Consequences
+
+Participants asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply
+immediately.
+
+If a participant engages in harassing behavior, RESPONSE TEAM may take
+any action they deem appropriate, up to and including expulsion from all
+Liminix spaces and identification of the participant as a harasser to
+other Liminix members or the general public.
+
+== License and attribution

+== Configuration
+
+There are many things you can specify in a configuration, but most
+commonly you need to change:
+
+* which services (processes) to run
+* what packages to install
+* permitted users and groups
+* Linux kernel configuration options
+* Busybox applets
+* filesystem layout
+
+=== Modules
+
+*Modules* are a means of abstraction which allow "bundling" of
+configuration options related to a common purpose or theme. For example,
+the `+dnsmasq+` module defines a template for a dnsmasq service, ensures
+that the dnsmasq package is installed, and provides a dnsmasq user and
+group for the service to run as. The `+ppp+` module defines a service
+template and also enables various PPP-related kernel configuration.
+
+Not all modules are included in the configuration by default, because
+that would mean that the kernel (and the Busybox binary providing common
+CLI tools) was compiled with many unnecessary bells and whistles and
+therefore be bigger than needed. (This is not purely an academic concern
+if your device has little flash storage). Therefore, specifying a
+service is usually a two-step process. For example, to add an NTP
+service you first add `+modules/ntp+` to your `+imports+` list, then you
+create a service by calling `+config.system.service.ntp.build { .... }+`
+with the appropriate service-dependent configuration parameters.
+
+[source,nix]
+----
+let svc = config.system.service;
+in {
+  # ...
+  imports = [
+    ./modules/ntp
+    # ....
+  ];
+  config.services.ntp = svc.ntp.build {
+    pools = { "pool.ntp.org" = ["iburst"]; };
+    makestep = { threshold = 1.0; limit = 3; };
+  };
+----
+
+Merely including the module won't define the service on its own: it only
+creates the template in `+config.system.service.foo+` and you have to
+create an actual service using the template. This is an intentional
+choice to allow the creation of multiple differently-configured services
+based on the same template - perhaps e.g. when you have multiple
+networks (VPNs etc) in different trust domains, or you want to run two
+SSH daemons on different ports. (For the background to this, please
+refer to the `+architecture decision record <adr/module-system>+`)
+
+[TIP]
+====
+Liminix modules should be quite familiar (but also different) if you
+already know how to use NixOS modules. We use the NixOS module
+infrastructure code, meaning that you should recognise the syntax, the
+type system, the rules for combining configuration values from different
+sources. We don't use the NixOS modules themselves, because the
+underlying system is not similar enough for them to work.
+====
+
+[[configuration-services]]
+=== Services
+
+In Liminix a service is any kind of long-running task or process on the
+system, that is managed (started, stopped, and monitored) by a service
+supervisor. A typical SOHO router might have services to
+
+* answer DHCP and DNS requests from the LAN
+* provide a wireless access point
+* connect using PPPoE or L2TP to an upstream network
+* start/stop the firewall
+* enable/disable IP packet forwarding
+* mount filesystems
+
+(Some of these might not be considered services using other definitions
+of the term: for example, this L2TP process would be a "client" in the
+client/server classification; and enabling packet forwarding doesn't
+require any long-lived process - just a setting to be toggled. However,
+there is value in being able to use the same abstractions for all the
+things to manage them and specify their dependency relationships - so in
+Liminix "everything is a service")
+
+The service supervision system enables service health monitoring,
+restart of unhealthy services, and failover to "backup" services when a
+primary service fails or its dependencies are unavailable. The intention
+is that you have a framework in which you can specify policy
+requirements like "ethernet wan dhcp-client should be restarted if it
+crashes, but if it can't start because the hardware link is down, then
+4G ppp service should be started instead".
+
+Any attribute in [.title-ref]#config.services# will become part of the
+default set of services that s6-rc will try to bring up. Services are
+usually started at boot time, but *controlled services* are those that
+are required only in particular contexts. For example, a service to
+mount a USB backup drive should run only when the drive is attached to
+the system. Liminix currently implements three kinds of controlled
+service:
+
+* "uevent-rule" service controllers use sysfs/uevent to identify when
+particular hardware devices are present, and start/stop a controlled
+service appropriately.
+* the "round-robin" service controller is used for service failover: it
+allows you to specify a list of services and runs each of them in turn
+until it exits, then runs the next.
+* the "health-check" service wraps another service, and runs a "health
+check" command at regular intervals. When the health check fails,
+indicating that the wrapped service is not working, it is terminated and
+allowed to restart.
+
+=== Runtime secrets (external vault)
+
+Secrets (such as wifi passphrases, PPP username/password, SSH keys, etc)
+that you provide as literal values in `+configuration.nix+` are
+processed into into config files and scripts at build time, and
+eventually end up in various files in the (world-readable)
+`+/nix/store+` before being baked into a flashable image. To change a
+secret - whether due to a compromise, or just as part of to a routine
+key rotation - you need to rebuild the configuration and potentially
+reflash the affected devices.
+
+To avoid this, you may instead use a "secrets service", which is a
+mechanism for your device to fetch secrets from a source external to the
+Nix store, and create at runtime the configuration files and scripts
+that start the services which require them.
+
+Not every possible parameter to every possible service is configurable
+using a secrets service. Parameters which can be configured this way are
+those with the type `+liminix.lib.types.replacable+`. At the time this
+document was written, these include:
+
+* ppp (pppoe and l2tp): `+username+`, `+password+`
+* ssh: `+authorizedKeys+`
+* hostapd: all parameters (most likely to be useful for
+`+wpa_passphrase+`)
+
+To use a runtime secret for any of these parameters:
+
+* create a secrets service to specify the source of truth for secrets
+* use the `+outputRef+` function in the service parameter to specify the
+secrets service and path
+
+For example, given you had an HTTPS server hosting a JSON file with the
+structure
+
+[source,json]
+----
+"ssh": {
+  "authorizedKeys": {
+"root": [ "ssh-rsa ....",  "ssh-rsa ....", ... ]
+"guest": [ "ssh-rsa ....",  "ssh-rsa ....", ... ]
+  }
+}
+----
+
+you could use a `+configuration.nix+` fragment something like this to
+make those keys visible to ssh:
+
+[source,nix]
+----
+services.secrets = svc.secrets.outboard.build {
+  name = "secret-service";
+  url = "http://10.0.0.1/secrets.json";
+  username = "secrets";
+  password = "liminix";
+  interval = 30; # minutes
+  dependencies = [ config.services.lan ];
+};
+services.sshd = svc.ssh.build {
+
