Shea Levy cd49fe4f9b Don't use any syntactic sugar for dynamic attrs
This doesn't change any functionality but moves some behavior out of the
parser and into the evaluator in order to simplify the code.

Shea Levy 6f3a51809a Fold dynamic binds handling into addAttr
Since addAttr has to iterate through the AttrPath we pass it, it makes
more sense to just iterate through the AttrNames in addAttr instead. As
an added bonus, this allows attrsets where two dynamic attribute paths
have the same static leading part (see added test case for an example
that failed previously).

Shea Levy 18fefacf7d Dynamic attrs
This adds new syntax for attribute names:

* attrs."${name}" => getAttr name attrs
* attrs ? "${name}" => isAttrs attrs && hasAttr attrs name
* attrs."${name}" or def => if attrs ? "${name}" then attrs."${name}" else def
* { "${name}" = value; } => listToAttrs [{ inherit name value; }]

Of course, it's a bit more complicated than that. The attribute chains
can be arbitrarily long and contain combinations of static and dynamic
parts (e.g. attrs."${foo}".bar."${baz}" or qux), which is relatively
straightforward for the getAttrs/hasAttrs cases but is more complex for
the listToAttrs case due to rules about duplicate attribute definitions.

For attribute sets with dynamic attribute names, duplicate static
attributes are detected at parse time while duplicate dynamic attributes
are detected when the attribute set is forced. So, for example, { a =
null; a.b = null; "${"c"}" = true; } will be a parse-time error, while
{ a = {}; "${"a"}".b = null; c = true; } will be an eval-time error
(technically that case could theoretically be detected at parse time,
but the general case would require full evaluation). Moreover, duplicate
dynamic attributes are not allowed even in cases where they would be
with static attributes ({ a.b.d = true; a.b.c = false; } is legal, but {
a."${"b"}".d = true; a."${"b"}".c = false; } is not). This restriction
might be relaxed in the future in cases where the static variant would
not be an error, but it is not obvious that that is desirable.

Finally, recursive attribute sets with dynamic attributes have the
static attributes in scope but not the dynamic ones. So rec { a = true;
"${"b"}" = a; } is equivalent to { a = true; b = true; } but rec {
"${"a"}" = true; b = a; } would be an error or use a from the
surrounding scope if it exists.

Note that the getAttr, getAttr or default, and hasAttr are all
implemented purely in the parser as syntactic sugar, while attribute
sets with dynamic attribute names required changes to the AST to be
implemented cleanly.

This is an alternative solution to and closes #167

Shea Levy 136f2f7046 Add the ExprBuiltin Expr type to the AST
Certain desugaring schemes may require the parser to use some builtin
function to do some of the work (e.g. currently `throw` is used to
lazily cause an error if a `<>`-style path is not in the search path)
Unfortunately, these names are not reserved keywords, so an expression
that uses such a syntactic sugar will not see the expected behavior
(see tests/lang/eval-okay-redefine-builtin.nix for an example).

This adds the ExprBuiltin AST type, which when evaluated uses the value
from the rootmost variable scope (which of course is initialized
internally and can't shadow any of the builtins).

Eelco Dolstra d05bf04444 Treat SQLITE_PROTOCOL as SQLITE_BUSY
In the Hydra build farm we fairly regularly get SQLITE_PROTOCOL errors
(e.g., "querying path in database: locking protocol").  The docs for
this error code say that it "is returned if some other process is
messing with file locks and has violated the file locking protocol
that SQLite uses on its rollback journal files."  However, the SQLite
source code reveals that this error can also occur under high load:

  if( cnt>5 ){
    int nDelay = 1;                      /* Pause time in microseconds */
    if( cnt>100 ){
      VVA_ONLY( pWal->lockError = 1; )
      return SQLITE_PROTOCOL;
    }
    if( cnt>=10 ) nDelay = (cnt-9)*238;  /* Max delay 21ms. Total delay 996ms */
    sqlite3OsSleep(pWal->pVfs, nDelay);
  }

i.e. if certain locks cannot be not acquired, SQLite will retry a
number of times before giving up and returing SQLITE_PROTOCOL.  The
comments say:

  Circumstances that cause a RETRY should only last for the briefest
  instances of time.  No I/O or other system calls are done while the
  locks are held, so the locks should not be held for very long. But
  if we are unlucky, another process that is holding a lock might get
  paged out or take a page-fault that is time-consuming to resolve,
  during the few nanoseconds that it is holding the lock.  In that case,
  it might take longer than normal for the lock to free.
  ...
  The total delay time before giving up is less than 1 second.

On a heavily loaded machine like lucifer (the main Hydra server),
which often has dozens of processes waiting for I/O, it seems to me
that a page fault could easily take more than a second to resolve.
So, let's treat SQLITE_PROTOCOL as SQLITE_BUSY and retry the
transaction.

its affinity set to a single CPU.  This is because nix-shell connects
to the Nix daemon, which causes the affinity hack to be applied.  So
we turn this off for Perl programs.

Eelco Dolstra 2c1ecf8e81 nix-env -i: Add a flag ‘--remove-all’ / ‘-r’
This is equivalent to running ‘nix-env -e '*'’ first, except that it
happens in a single transaction.  Thus, ‘nix-env -i pkgs...’ replaces
the profile with the specified set of packages.

The main motivation is to support declarative package management
(similar to environment.systemPackages in NixOS).  That is, if you
have a specification ‘profile.nix’ like this:

  with import <nixpkgs> {};
  [ thunderbird
    geeqie
    ...
  ]

then after any change to ‘profile.nix’, you can run:

  $ nix-env -f profile.nix -ir

to update the profile to match the specification.  (Without the ‘-r’
flag, if you remove a package from ‘profile.nix’, it won't be removed
from the actual profile.)

Suggested by @zefhemel.

Also, when traversing ~/.nix-defexpr, only read regular files with the

.../channels/binary-caches/<name>.  The only reason this didn't cause

expression, the binary-caches files happen to be syntactically valid
Nix expressions, and we iterate over the directory contents in just
the right order).

This reduces the difference between inherited and non-inherited
attribute handling to the choice of which env to use (in recs and lets)
by setting the AttrDef::e to a new ExprVar in the parser rather than
carrying a separate AttrDef::v VarRef member.

As an added bonus, this allows inherited attributes that inherit from a

Eelco Dolstra a583a2bc59 Run the daemon worker on the same CPU as the client
On a system with multiple CPUs, running Nix operations through the
daemon is significantly slower than "direct" mode:

$ NIX_REMOTE= nix-instantiate '<nixos>' -A system
real    0m0.974s
user    0m0.875s
sys     0m0.088s

$ NIX_REMOTE=daemon nix-instantiate '<nixos>' -A system
real    0m2.118s
user    0m1.463s
sys     0m0.218s

The main reason seems to be that the client and the worker get moved
to a different CPU after every call to the worker.  This patch adds a
hack to lock them to the same CPU.  With this, the overhead of going
through the daemon is very small:

$ NIX_REMOTE=daemon nix-instantiate '<nixos>' -A system
real    0m1.074s

Shea Levy 20866a7031 Delay evaulation of with attrs until a variable lookup needs them
Evaluation of attribute sets is strict in the attribute names, which
means immediate evaluation of `with` attribute sets rules out some
potentially interesting use cases (e.g. where the attribute names of one
set depend in some way on another but we want to bring those names into
scope for some values in the second set).

The major example of this is overridable self-referential package sets
(e.g. all-packages.nix). With immediate `with` evaluation, the only
options for such sets are to either make them non-recursive and
explicitly use the name of the overridden set in non-overridden one
every time you want to reference another package, or make the set
recursive and use the `__overrides` hack. As shown in the test case that
comes with this commit, though, delayed `with` evaluation allows a nicer
third alternative.

Shea Levy e87d1a63bd killUser: Don't let the child kill itself on Apple
The kill(2) in Apple's libc follows POSIX semantics, which means that
kill(-1, SIGKILL) will kill the calling process too. Since nix has no
way to distinguish between the process successfully killing everything
and the process being killed by a rogue builder in that case, it can't
safely conclude that killUser was successful.

Luckily, the actual kill syscall takes a parameter that determines
whether POSIX semantics are followed, so we can call that syscall
directly and avoid the issue on Apple.

This reverts commit 69b8f9980f.

The timeout should be enforced remotely.  Otherwise, if the garbage
collector is running either locally or remotely, if will block the
build or closure copying for some time.  If the garbage collector
takes too long, the build may time out, which is not what we want.
Also, on heavily loaded systems, copying large paths to and from the
remote machine can take a long time, also potentially resulting in a
timeout.

Shea Levy cc63db1dd5 makeStoreWritable: Ask forgiveness, not permission
It is surprisingly impossible to check if a mountpoint is a bind mount
on Linux, and in my previous commit I forgot to check if /nix/store was
even a mountpoint at all. statvfs.f_flag is not populated with MS_BIND
(and even if it were, my check was wrong in the previous commit).

Luckily, the semantics of mount with MS_REMOUNT | MS_BIND make both
checks unnecessary: if /nix/store is not a mountpoint, then mount will
fail with EINVAL, and if /nix/store is not a bind-mount, then it will
not be made writable. Thus, if /nix/store is not a mountpoint, we fail
immediately (since we don't know how to make it writable), and if
/nix/store IS a mountpoint but not a bind-mount, we fail at first write
(see below for why we can't check and fail immediately).

Note that, due to what is IMO buggy behavior in Linux, calling mount
with MS_REMOUNT | MS_BIND on a non-bind readonly mount makes the
mountpoint appear writable in two places: In the sixth (but not the
10th!) column of mountinfo, and in the f_flags member of struct statfs.
All other syscalls behave as if the mount point were still readonly (at
least for Linux 3.9-rc1, but I don't think this has changed recently or
is expected to soon). My preferred semantics would be for MS_REMOUNT |
MS_BIND to fail on a non-bind mount, as it doesn't make sense to remount
a non bind-mount as a bind mount.

Eelco Dolstra 5526a282b5 Security: Don't allow builders to change permissions on files they don't own
It turns out that in multi-user Nix, a builder may be able to do

  ln /etc/shadow $out/foo

Afterwards, canonicalisePathMetaData() will be applied to $out/foo,
causing /etc/shadow's mode to be set to 444 (readable by everybody but
writable by nobody).  That's obviously Very Bad.

Fortunately, this fails in NixOS's default configuration because
/nix/store is a bind mount, so "ln" will fail with "Invalid
cross-device link".  It also fails if hard-link restrictions are
enabled, so a workaround is:

  echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_hardlinks

The solution is to check that all files in $out are owned by the build
user.  This means that innocuous operations like "ln
${pkgs.foo}/some-file $out/" are now rejected, but that already failed
in chroot builds anyway.

Eelco Dolstra 8d8d47abd2 Only substitute wanted outputs of a derivation
If a derivation has multiple outputs, then we only want to download
those outputs that are actuallty needed.  So if we do "nix-build -A
openssl.man", then only the "man" output should be downloaded.
Likewise if another package depends on ${openssl.man}.

The tricky part is that different derivations can depend on different
outputs of a given derivation, so we may need to restart the
corresponding derivation goal if that happens.

  $ nix-build -A pkg.all

produces ./result, ./result-man and ./result-bin;

  $ nix-build -A pkg.all -A pkg2

produces ./result, ./result-man, ./result-bin and ./result-2.

Eelco Dolstra 9de6bc5d05 nix-store -r: Add ‘--ignore-unknown’ flag
This flag causes paths that do not have a known substitute to be
quietly ignored.  This is mostly useful for Charon, allowing it to
speed up deployment by letting a machine use substitutes for all
substitutable paths, instead of uploading them.  The latter is
frequently faster, e.g. if the target machine has a fast Internet
connection while the source machine is on a slow ADSL line.

This operation allows fixing corrupted or accidentally deleted store

Since the corrupted path cannot be replaced atomically, there is a
very small time window (one system call) during which neither the old
(corrupted) nor the new (repaired) contents are available.  So
repairing should be used with some care on critical packages like
Glibc.

Eelco Dolstra 95c74eae26 Allow dashes in identifiers
In Nixpkgs, the attribute in all-packages.nix corresponding to a
package is usually equal to the package name.  However, this doesn't
work if the package contains a dash, which is fairly common.  The
convention is to replace the dash with an underscore (e.g. "dbus-lib"
becomes "dbus_glib"), but that's annoying.  So now dashes are valid in
variable / attribute names, allowing you to write:

  dbus-glib = callPackage ../development/libraries/dbus-glib { };

and

  buildInputs = [ dbus-glib ];

Since we don't have a negation or subtraction operation in Nix, this
is unambiguous.

Eelco Dolstra b9c2b4d5b4 Remove setting of the immutable bit
Using the immutable bit is problematic, especially in conjunction with
store optimisation.  For instance, if the garbage collector deletes a
file, it has to clear its immutable bit, but if the file has
additional hard links, we can't set the bit afterwards because we
don't know the remaining paths.

So now that we support having the entire Nix store as a read-only
mount, we may as well drop the immutable bit.  Unfortunately, we have
to keep the code to clear the immutable bit for backwards
compatibility.
2012-09-19 16:17:54 -04:00
Eelco Dolstra b9124a5c33 Support having /nix/store as a read-only bind mount
It turns out that the immutable bit doesn't work all that well.  A
better way is to make the entire Nix store a read-only bind mount,
i.e. by doing

  $ mount --bind /nix/store /nix/store
  $ mount -o remount,ro,bind /nix/store

(This would typically done in an early boot script, before anything
from /nix/store is used.)

Since Nix needs to be able to write to the Nix store, it now detects
if /nix/store is a read-only bind mount and then makes it writable in
a private mount namespace.

If the options gc-keep-outputs and gc-keep-derivations are both

to handle this, but it didn't work with multiple-output derivations,
causing the garbage collector to fail with errors like ‘error: cannot
delete path `...' because it is in use by `...'’.  The garbage
collector now handles strongly connected components in the liveness
graph as a unit and decides whether to delete all or none of the paths
in an SCC.

Shea Levy b1112bbef1 import: If the path is a valid .drv file, parse it and generate a derivation attrset.
The generated attrset has drvPath and outPath with the right string context, type 'derivation', outputName with
the right name, all with a list of outputs, and an attribute for each output.

I see three uses for this (though certainly there may be more):

* Using derivations generated by something besides nix-instantiate (e.g. guix)

* Allowing packages provided by channels to be used in nix expressions. If a channel installed a valid deriver
  for each package it provides into the store, then those could be imported and used as dependencies or installed
  in environment.systemPackages, for example.

* Enable hydra to be consistent in how it treats inputs that are outputs of another build. Right now, if an
  input is passed as an argument to the job, it is passed as a derivation, but if it is accessed via NIX_PATH
  (i.e. through the <> syntax), then it is a path that can be imported. This is problematic because the build
  being depended upon may have been built with non-obvious arguments passed to its jobset file. With this
  feature, hydra can just set the name of that input to the path to its drv file in NIX_PATH

Incremental optimisation requires creating links in /nix/store/.links

/nix/store/.links still exists.  So we need to check /nix/store/.links

Eelco Dolstra 564fb7d9fa optimiseStore(): Use a content-addressed file store in /nix/store/.links
optimiseStore() now creates persistent, content-addressed hard links
in /nix/store/.links.  For instance, if it encounters a file P with
hash H, it will create a hard link

  P' = /nix/store/.link/<H>

to P if P' doesn't already exist; if P' exist, then P is replaced by a
hard link to P'.  This is better than the previous in-memory map,
because it had the tendency to unnecessarily replace hard links with a
hard link to whatever happened to be the first file with a given hash
it encountered.  It also allows on-the-fly, incremental optimisation.

Eelco Dolstra ccc52adfb2 Add function queryPathFromHashPart()
To implement binary caches efficiently, Hydra needs to be able to map
the hash part of a store path (e.g. "gbg...zr7") to the full store
path (e.g. "/nix/store/gbg...kzr7-subversion-1.7.5").  (The binary
cache mechanism uses hash parts as a key for looking up store paths to
ensure privacy.)  However, doing a search in the Nix store for
/nix/store/<hash>* is expensive since it requires reading the entire
directory.  queryPathFromHashPart() prevents this by doing a cheap
database lookup.

Eelco Dolstra 11800e6198 download-from-binary-cache: parallelise fetching of NAR info files
Getting substitute information using the binary cache substituter has
non-trivial latency overhead.  A package or NixOS system configuration
can have hundreds of dependencies, and in the worst case (when the
local info cache is empty) we have to do a separate HTTP request for
each of these.  If the ping time to the server is t, getting N info
files will take tN seconds; e.g., with a ping time of 0.1s to
nixos.org, sequentially downloading 1000 info files (a typical NixOS
config) will take at least 100 seconds.

To fix this problem, the binary cache substituter can now perform
requests in parallel.  This required changing the substituter
interface to support a function querySubstitutablePathInfos() that
queries multiple paths at the same time, and rewriting queryMissing()
to take advantage of parallelism.  (Due to local caching,
parallelising queryMissing() is sufficient for most use cases, since
it's almost always called before building a derivation and thus fills
the local info cache.)

For example, parallelism speeds up querying all 1056 paths in a
particular NixOS system configuration from 116s to 2.6s.  It works so
well because the eccentricity of the top-level derivation in the
dependency graph is only 9.  So we only need 10 round-trips (when
using an unlimited number of parallel connections) to get everything.

Currently we do a maximum of 150 parallel connections to the server.
Thus it's important that the binary cache server (e.g. nixos.org) has
a high connection limit.  Alternatively we could use HTTP pipelining,
but WWW::Curl doesn't support it and libcurl has a hard-coded limit of
5 requests per pipeline.

Eelco Dolstra 1db38ae81b When using chroots, use a private PID namespace
In a private PID namespace, processes have PIDs that are separate from
the rest of the system.  The initial child gets PID 1.  Processes in
the chroot cannot see processes outside of the chroot.  This improves
isolation between builds.  However, processes on the outside can see
processes in the chroot and send signals to them (if they have
appropriate rights).

Since the builder gets PID 1, it serves as the reaper for zombies in
the chroot.  This might turn out to be a problem.  In that case we'll
need to have a small PID 1 process that sits in a loop calling wait().

access to chroot builds, except that they get a private loopback
interface.  This means that:

- Builders cannot connect to the outside network or to other processes
  on the same machine, except processes within the same build.

- Vice versa, other processes cannot connect to processes in a chroot
  build, and open ports/connections do not show up in "netstat".

- If two concurrent builders try to listen on the same port (e.g. as
  part of a test), they no longer conflict with each other.

This was inspired by the "PrivateNetwork" flag in systemd.

Eelco Dolstra 2f3f413e91 Support socket-based, on-demand activation of the Nix daemon with systemd
Systemd can start the Nix daemon on demand when the Nix daemon socket
is first accessed.  This is signalled through the LISTEN_FDS
environment variable, so all we need to do is check for that and then
use file descriptor 3 as the listen socket instead of creating one
ourselves.

Eelco Dolstra 4bc4da331a Reserve some disk space for the garbage collector
We can't open a SQLite database if the disk is full.  Since this
prevents the garbage collector from running when it's most needed, we
reserve some dummy space that we can free just before doing a garbage
collection.  This actually revives some old code from the Berkeley DB
days.

Eelco Dolstra 46cdc6ad51 Handle EPERM when creating a hard link for the chroot
There is a race condition when doing parallel builds with chroots and
the immutable bit enabled.  One process may call makeImmutable()
before the other has called link(), in which case link() will fail
with EPERM.  We could retry or wrap the operation in a lock, but since
this condition is rare and I'm lazy, we just use the existing copy
fallback.

Fixes #9.

Eelco Dolstra 117670be57 Make the garbage collector more concurrent
Make the garbage collector more concurrent by deleting valid paths
outside the region where we're holding the global GC lock.  This
should greatly reduce the time during which new builds are blocked,
since the deletion accounts for the vast majority of the time spent in
the GC.

To ensure that this is safe, the valid paths are invalidated and
renamed to some arbitrary path while we're holding the lock.  This
ensures that we when we finally delete the path, it's not a (newly)
valid or locked path.

Eelco Dolstra 6fe13e6aba Fix chroots builds
Chroots are initialised by hard-linking inputs from the Nix store to
the chroot.  This doesn't work if the input has its immutable bit set,
because it's forbidden to create hard links to immutable files.  So
temporarily clear the immutable bit when creating and destroying the
chroot.

Note that making regular files in the Nix store immutable isn't very
reliable, since the bit can easily become cleared: for instance, if we
run the garbage collector after running ‘nix-store --optimise’.  So
maybe we should only make directories immutable.
2012-02-18 01:23:52 +01:00
Eelco Dolstra bd013b6f98 On Linux, make the Nix store really read-only by using the immutable bit
I was bitten one time too many by Python modifying the Nix store by
creating *.pyc files when run as root.  On Linux, we can prevent this
by setting the immutable bit on files and directories (as in ‘chattr
+i’).  This isn't supported by all filesystems, so it's not an error
if setting the bit fails.  The immutable bit is cleared by the garbage
collector before deleting a path.  The only tricky aspect is in
optimiseStore(), since it's forbidden to create hard links to an
immutable file.  Thus optimiseStore() temporarily clears the immutable
bit before creating the link.
