Make the location of the build directory in the sandbox configurable
This is mostly for use in the sandbox tests, since if the Nix store is
under /build, then we can't use /build as the build directory.

Linux sandbox: Use /build instead of /tmp as $TMPDIR
There is a security issue when a build accidentally stores its $TMPDIR
in some critical place, such as an RPATH. If
TMPDIR=/tmp/nix-build-..., then any user on the system can recreate
that directory and inject libraries into the RPATH of programs
executed by other users. Since /build probably doesn't exist (or isn't
world-writable), this mitigates the issue.

Replace $NIX_REMOTE_SYSTEMS with an option "builder-files"
Also, to unify with hydra-queue-runner, allow it to be a list of
files.

build-remote: Fix fallback to other machines when connecting fails
Opening an SSHStore or LegacySSHStore does not actually establish a
connection, so the try/catch block here did nothing. Added a
Store::connect() method to test whether a connection can be
established.

Add an option for specifying remote builders
This is useful for one-off situations where you want to specify a
builder on the command line instead of having to mess with
nix.machines. E.g.

  $ nix-build -A hello --argstr system x86_64-darwin \
    --option builders 'root@macstadium1 x86_64-darwin'

will perform the specified build on "macstadium1".

It also removes the need for a separate nix.machines file since you
can specify builders in nix.conf directly. (In fact nix.machines is
yet another hack that predates the general nix.conf configuration
file, IIRC.)

Note: this option is supported by the daemon for trusted users. The
fact that this allows trusted users to specify paths to SSH keys to
which they don't normally have access is maybe a bit too much trust...

build-remote: Ugly hackery to get build logs to work
The build hook mechanism expects build log output to go to file
descriptor 4, so do that.

Support arbitrary store URIs in nix.machines
For backwards compatibility, if the URI is just a hostname, ssh://
(i.e. LegacySSHStore) is prepended automatically.

Also, all fields except the URI are now optional. For example, this is
a valid nix.machines file:

  local?root=/tmp/nix

This is useful for testing the remote build machinery since you don't
have to mess around with ssh.

Remove $NIX_BUILD_HOOK and $NIX_CURRENT_LOAD
This is to simplify remote build configuration. These environment
variables predate nix.conf.

The build hook now has a sensible default (namely build-remote).

The current load is kept in the Nix state directory now.

build-remote: Don't copy the .drv closure
Since build-remote uses buildDerivation() now, we don't need to copy
the .drv file anymore. This greatly reduces the set of input paths
copied to the remote side (e.g. from 392 to 51 store paths for GNU
hello on x86_64-darwin).

Add a dummy Store::buildPaths() method
This default implementation of buildPaths() does nothing if all
requested paths are already valid, and throws an "unsupported
operation" error otherwise. This fixes a regression introduced by
c30330df6f in binary cache and legacy
SSH stores.

Eelco Dolstra 2040240e23
Add a Config class to simplify adding configuration settings
The typical use is to inherit Config and add Setting<T> members:

  class MyClass : private Config
  {
    Setting<int> foo{this, 123, "foo", "the number of foos to use"};
    Setting<std::string> bar{this, "blabla", "bar", "the name of the bar"};

    MyClass() : Config(readConfigFile("/etc/my-app.conf"))
    {
      std::cout << foo << "\n"; // will print 123 unless overriden
    }
  };

Currently, this is used by Store and its subclasses for store
parameters. You now get a warning if you specify a non-existant store
parameter in a store URI.

Implement RemoteStore::queryMissing()
This provides a significant speedup, e.g. 64 s -> 12 s for

  nix-build --dry-run -I nixpkgs=channel:nixos-16.03 '<nixpkgs/nixos/tests/misc.nix>' -A test

on a cold local and CloudFront cache.

The alternative is to use lots of concurrent daemon connections but
that seems wasteful.

nix-daemon: Disable path info cache
This is useless because the client also caches path info, and can
cause problems for long-running clients like hydra-queue-runner
(i.e. it may return cached info about paths that have been
garbage-collected).

Sandbox: Fix /dev/ptmx on recent kernels
This fixes "No such file or directory" when opening /dev/ptmx
(e.g. http://hydra.nixos.org/build/51094249).

The reason appears to be some changes to /dev/ptmx / /dev/pts handling
between Linux 4.4 and 4.9. See
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/7832531/.

The fix is to go back to mounting a proper /dev/pts instance inside
the sandbox. Happily, this now works inside user namespaces, even for
unprivileged users. So

  NIX_REMOTE=local?root=/tmp/nix nix-build \
    '<nixpkgs/nixos/tests/misc.nix>' -A test

works for non-root users.

The downside is that the fix breaks sandbox builds on older kernels
(probably pre-4.6), since mounting a devpts fails inside user
namespaces for some reason I've never been able to figure out. Builds
on those systems will fail with

  error: while setting up the build environment: mounting /dev/pts: Invalid argument

Ah well.

Shea Levy 0bb8db257d Add exec primop behind allow-unsafe-native-code-during-evaluation.
Execute a given program with the (optional) given arguments as the
user running the evaluation, parsing stdout as an expression to be
evaluated.

There are many use cases for nix that would benefit from being able to
run arbitrary code during evaluation, including but not limited to:

* Automatic git fetching to get a sha256 from a git revision
* git rev-parse HEAD
* Automatic extraction of information from build specifications from
  other tools, particularly language-specific package managers like
  cabal or npm
* Secrets decryption (e.g. with nixops)
* Private repository fetching

Ideally, we would add this functionality in a more principled way to
nix, but in the mean time 'builtins.exec' can be used to get these
tasks done.

The primop is only available when the
'allow-unsafe-native-code-during-evaluation' nix option is true. That
flag also enables the 'importNative' primop, which is strictly more
powerful but less convenient (since it requires compiling a plugin
against the running version of nix).
