POSIX file locks are essentially incompatible with multithreading. BSD
locks have much saner semantics. We need this now that there can be
multiple concurrent LocalStore::buildPaths() invocations.
This currently fails because we're using POSIX file locks. So when the
garbage collector opens and closes its own temproots file, it causes
the lock to be released and then deleted by another GC instance.
Passing `--post-build-hook /foo/bar` to a nix-* command will cause
`/foo/bar` to be executed after each build with the following
environment variables set:
DRV_PATH=/nix/store/drv-that-has-been-built.drv
OUT_PATHS=/nix/store/...build /nix/store/...build-bin /nix/store/...build-dev
This can be useful in particular to upload all the builded artifacts to
the cache (including the ones that don't appear in the runtime closure
of the final derivation or are built because of IFD).
This new feature prints the stderr/stdout output to the `nix-build`
and `nix build` client, and the output is printed in a Nix 2
compatible format:
[nix]$ ./inst/bin/nix-build ./test.nix
these derivations will be built:

startProcess does not appear to send the exit code to the helper
correctly. Not sure why this is, but it is probably safe to just
fallback on all sandbox errors.
When sandbox-fallback = true (the default), the Nix builder will fall
back to disabled sandbox mode when the kernel doesn’t allow users to
set it up. This prevents hard errors from occuring in tricky places,
especially the initial installer. To restore the previous behavior,
users can set:
sandbox-fallback = false
in their /etc/nix/nix.conf configuration.
Some kernels disable "unpriveleged user namespaces". This is
unfortunate, but we can still use mount namespaces. Anyway, since each
builder has its own nixbld user, we already have most of the benefits
of user namespaces.
This is a much simpler fix to the 'error 9 while decompressing xz
file' problem than 78fa47a7f0. We just
do a ranged HTTP request starting after the data that we previously
wrote into the sink.
Fixes#2952, #379.
Our use of boost::coroutine2 depends on -lboost_context,
which in turn depends on `-lboost_thread`, which in turn depends
on `-lboost_system`.
I suspect that this builds on nix only because of low-level hacks
like NIX_LDFLAGS.
This commit passes the proper linker flags, thus fixing bootstrap
builds on non-nix distributions like Ubuntu 16.04.
With these changes, I can build Nix on Ubuntu 16.04 using:
./bootstrap.sh
./configure --prefix=$HOME/editline-prefix \
--disable-doc-gen \
CXX=g++-7 \
--with-boost=$HOME/boost-prefix \
EDITLINE_CFLAGS=-I$HOME/editline-prefix/include \
EDITLINE_LIBS=-leditline \
LDFLAGS=-L$HOME/editline-prefix/lib
make
where
* g++-7 comes from gcc-7 from
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-toolchain-r/+archive/ubuntu/test,
* editline 1.14 from https://github.com/troglobit/editline/releases/tag/1.14.0
was installed into `$HOME/editline-prefix`
(because Ubuntu 16.04's `editline` is too old to have the function nix uses),
* boost 1.66 from
https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_66_0/more/getting_started/unix-variants.html
was installed into $HOME/boost-prefix (because Ubuntu 16.04 only has 1.58)
$ sudo ./inst/bin/nix-instantiate -E '"${./.git}"'
error: The path name '.git' is invalid: it is illegal to start the
name with a period. Path names are alphanumeric and can include the
symbols +-._?= and must not begin with a period. Note: If '.git' is a
source file and you cannot rename it on disk,
builtins.path { name = ... } can be used to give it an alternative
name.
If multiple builds with fail with different errors it will be reflected
in the status code.
eg.
103 => timeout + hash mismatch
105 => timeout + check mismatch
106 => hash mismatch + check mismatch
107 => timeout + hash mismatch + check mismatch
Setting `http2 = false` in nix config (e.g. /etc/nix/nix.conf)
had no effect, and `nix-env -vvvvv -i hello` still downloaded .nar
packages using HTTP/2.
In `src/libstore/download.cc`, the `CURL_HTTP_VERSION_2TLS` option was
being explicitly set when `downloadSettings.enableHttp2` was `true`,
but, `CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1` option was not being explicitly set when
`downloadSettings.enableHttp2` was `false`.
This may be because `https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-env.html` states:
"You have to set this option if you want to use libcurl's HTTP/2 support."
but, also, in the changelog, states:
"DEFAULT
Since curl 7.62.0: CURL_HTTP_VERSION_2TLS
Before that: CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1"
So, the default setting for `libcurl` is HTTP/2 for version >= 7.62.0.
In this commit, option `CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION` is explicitly set to
`CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1` when `downloadSettings.enableHttp2` nix config
setting is `false`.
This can be tested by running `nix-env -vvvvv -i hello | grep HTTP`
The default nsswitch.conf(5) file in most distros can handle many
different things including host name, user names, groups, etc. In Nix,
we want to limit the amount of impurities that come from these things.
As a result, we should only allow nss to be used for gethostbyname(3)
and getservent(3).

'updateCV.notify_one()' does nothing if the update thread is not
waiting for updateCV (in particular this happens when it is sleeping
on quitCV). So also set a variable to ensure that the update isn't
lost.
--no-net causes tarballTtl to be set to the largest 32-bit integer,
which causes comparison like 'time + tarballTtl < other_time' to
fail on 32-bit systems. So cast them to 64-bit first.
https://hydra.nixos.org/build/95076624
(cherry picked from commit 29ccb2e969)
This flag
* Disables substituters.
* Sets the tarball-ttl to infinity (ensuring e.g. that the flake
registry and any downloaded flakes are considered current).
* Disables retrying downloads and sets the connection timeout to the
minimum. (So it doesn't completely disable downloads at the moment.)
(cherry picked from commit 8ea842260b)
Once we've started writing data to a Sink, we can't restart a download
request, because then we end up writing duplicate data to the
Sink. Therefore we shouldn't handle retries in Downloader but at a
higher level (in particular, in copyStorePath()).
Fixes#2952.
(cherry picked from commit a67cf5a358)
Also, make fetchGit and fetchMercurial update allowedPaths properly.
(Maybe the evaluator, rather than the caller of the evaluator, should
apply toRealPath(), but that's a bigger change.)
(cherry picked from commit 5c34d66538)
This allows many programs (e.g. gcc, clang, cmake) to print colorized
log output (assuming $TERM is set to a value like "xterm").
There are other ways to get colors, in particular setting
CLICOLOR_FORCE, but they're less widely supported and can break
programs that parse tool output.
In a daemon-based Nix setup, some options cannot be overridden by a
client unless the client's user is considered trusted.
Currently, if an untrusted user tries to override one of those
options, we are silently ignoring it.
This can be pretty confusing in certain situations.
e.g. a user thinks he disabled the sandbox when in reality he did not.
We are now sending a warning message letting know the user some options
have been ignored.
Related to #1761.
For the SIGWINCH signal to be caught, it needs to be set in sigaction
on the main thread. Previously, this was broken, and updateWindowSize
was never being called. Tested on macOS 10.14.
This causes 'nix' to print build log output to stderr rather than
showing the last log line in the progress bar. Log lines are prefixed
by the name of the derivation (minus the version string), e.g.
binutils> make[1]: Leaving directory '/build/binutils-2.31.1'

The value of useChroot is not set yet in the constructor, resulting in
hash rewriting being enabled in certain cases where it should not be.
Fixes#2801
Sometimes, "expected" can be "0", but in fact means "unknown".
This is for example the case when downloading a file while the http
server doesn't send the `Content-Length` header, like when running `nix
build` pointing to a nixpkgs checkout streamed from GitHub:
⇒ nix build -f https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/master.tar.gz hello
[1.8/0.0 MiB DL] downloading 'https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/master.tar.gz'
In that case, don't show that weird progress bar, but only the (slowly
increasing) downloaded size ("done").
⇒ nix build -f https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/master.tar.gz hello
[1.8 MiB DL] downloading 'https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/master.tar.gz'
This commit also updates fmt calls with three numbers (when something is
currently 'running' too) - I'm not sure if this can be provoked, but
showing "0" as expected doesn't make any sense, as we're obviously doing
more than nothing.
For text files it is possible to do it like so:
`builtins.hashString "sha256" (builtins.readFile /tmp/a)`
but that doesn't work for binary files.
With builtins.hashFile any kind of file can be conveniently hashed.
To determine which seccomp filters to install, we were incorrectly
using settings.thisSystem, which doesn't denote the actual system when
--system is used.
Fixes#2791.
Scanning of /proc/<pid>/{exe,cwd} was broken because '{memory:' was
prepended twice. Also, get rid of the whole '{memory:...}' thing
because it's unnecessary, we can just list the file in /proc directly.
This new structure makes more sense as there may be many sources rooting
the same store path. Many profiles can reference the same path but this
is even more true with /proc/<pid>/maps where distinct pids can and
often do map the same store path.
This implementation is also more efficient as the `Roots` map contains
only one entry per rooted store path.
It could happen that the local builder match the system but lacks some features.
Now it results a failure.
The fix gracefully excludes the local builder from the set of available builders for derivation which requires the feature, so the derivation is built on remote builders only (as though it has incompatible system, like ```aarch64-linux``` when local is x86)
This reverts commit a0ef21262f. This
doesn't work in 'nix run' and nix-shell because setns() fails in
multithreaded programs, and Boehm GC mark threads are uncancellable.
Fixes#2646.
Inside a derivation, exportReferencesGraph already provides a way to
dump the Nix database for a specific closure. On the command line,
--dump-db gave us the same information, but only for the entire Nix
database at once.
With this change, one can now pass a list of paths to --dump-db to get
the Nix database dumped for just those paths. (The user is responsible
for ensuring this is a closure, like for --export).
Among other things, this is useful for deploying a closure to a new
host without using --import/--export; one can use tar to transfer the
store paths, and --dump-db/--load-db to transfer the validity
information. This is useful if the new host doesn't actually have Nix
yet, and the closure that is being deployed itself contains Nix.
Previously, plain derivation paths in the string context (e.g. those
that arose from builtins.storePath on a drv file, not those that arose
from accessing .drvPath of a derivation) were treated somewhat like
derivaiton paths derived from .drvPath, except their dependencies
weren't recursively added to the input set. With this change, such
plain derivation paths are simply treated as paths and added to the
source inputs set accordingly, simplifying context handling code and
removing the inconsistency. If drvPath-like behavior is desired, the
.drv file can be imported and then .drvPath can be accessed.
This is a backwards-incompatibility, but storePath is never used on
drv files within nixpkgs and almost never used elsewhere.
Trying to fetch refs that are not in refs/heads currently fails because
it looks for refs/heads/refs/foo instead of refs/foo.
eg.
builtins.fetchGit {
url = https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git;
ref = "refs/pull/1024/head;
}
SRI hashes (https://www.w3.org/TR/SRI/) combine the hash algorithm and
a base-64 hash. This allows more concise and standard hash
specifications. For example, instead of
import <nix/fetchurl.nl> {
url = https://nixos.org/releases/nix/nix-2.1.3/nix-2.1.3.tar.xz;
sha256 = "5d22dad058d5c800d65a115f919da22938c50dd6ba98c5e3a183172d149840a4";
};
you can write
import <nix/fetchurl.nl> {
url = https://nixos.org/releases/nix/nix-2.1.3/nix-2.1.3.tar.xz;
hash = "sha256-XSLa0FjVyADWWhFfkZ2iKTjFDda6mMXjoYMXLRSYQKQ=";
};
In fixed-output derivations, the outputHashAlgo is no longer mandatory
if outputHash specifies the hash (either as an SRI or in the old
"<type>:<hash>" format).
'nix hash-{file,path}' now print hashes in SRI format by default. I
also reverted them to use SHA-256 by default because that's what we're
using most of the time in Nixpkgs.
Suggested by @zimbatm.
Use the same output ordering and format everywhere.
This is such a common issue that we trade the single-line error message for
more readability.
Old message:
```
fixed-output derivation produced path '/nix/store/d4nw9x2sy9q3r32f3g5l5h1k833c01vq-example.com' with sha256 hash '08y4734bm2zahw75b16bcmcg587vvyvh0n11gwiyir70divwp1rm' instead of the expected hash '1xzwnipjd54wl8g93vpw6hxnpmdabq0wqywriiwmh7x8k0lvpq5m'
```
New message:
```

```
Without this information the content addressable state and hashes are
lost after the first request, this causes signatures to be required for
everything even tho the path could be verified without signing.
This enables using for http for S3 request for debugging or
implementations that don't have https configured. This is not a problem
for binary caches since they should not contain sensitive information.
Both package signatures and AWS auth already protect against tampering.
The goal is to support libeditline AND libreadline and let the user
decide at compile time which one to use.
Add a compile time option to use libreadline instead of
libeditline. If compiled against libreadline completion functionality
is lost because of a incompatibility between libeditlines and
libreadlines completion function. Completion with libreadline is
possible and can be added later.
To use libreadline instead of libeditline the environment
variables 'EDITLINE_LIBS' and 'EDITLINE_CFLAGS' have to been set
during the ./configure step.
Example:
EDITLINE_LIBS="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libhistory.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libreadline.so"
EDITLINE_CFLAGS="-DREADLINE"
The reason for this change is that for example on Debian already three
different editline libraries exist but none of those is compatible the
flavor used by nix. My hope is that with this change it would be
easier to port nix to systems that have already libreadline available.
