Eelco Dolstra bc1d9fd8b5 Check whether we can use PID namespaces
In unprivileged podman containers, /proc is not fully visible (there
are other filesystems mounted on subdirectories of /proc). Therefore
we can't mount a new /proc in the sandbox that matches the PID
namespace of the sandbox. So this commit automatically disables
sandboxing if /proc is not fully visible.

Eelco Dolstra fb2f7f5dcc Fix auto-uid-allocation in Docker containers
This didn't work because sandboxing doesn't work in Docker. However,
the sandboxing check is done lazily - after clone(CLONE_NEWNS) fails,
we retry with sandboxing disabled. But at that point, we've already
done UID allocation under the assumption that user namespaces are
enabled.

So let's get rid of the "goto fallback" logic and just detect early
whether user / mount namespaces are enabled.

This commit also gets rid of a compatibility hack for some ancient
Linux kernels (<2.13).

Jörg Thalheim f20d3726dd advertise transport encoding in http transfers to
tl;dr: With this 1 line change I was able to get a speedup of 1.5x on 1Gbit/s
wan connections by enabling zstd compression in nginx.

Also nix already supported all common compression format for http
transfer, webservers usually only enable them if they are advertised
through the Accept-Encoding header.

This pull requests makes nix advertises content compression support for
zstd, br, gzip and deflate.

It's particular useful to add transparent compression for binary caches
that serve packages from the host nix store in particular nix-serve,
nix-serve-ng and harmonia.

I tried so far gzip, brotli and zstd, whereas only zstd was able to bring
me performance improvements for 1Gbit/s WAN connections.

The following nginx configuration was used in combination with the
[zstd module](https://github.com/tokers/zstd-nginx-module) and
[harmonia](https://github.com/nix-community/harmonia/)

```nix
{
  services.nginx.virtualHosts."cache.yourhost.com" = {
    locations."/".extraConfig = ''
      proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5000;
      proxy_set_header Host $host;
      proxy_redirect http:// https://;
      proxy_http_version 1.1;
      proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
      proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
      proxy_set_header Connection $connection_upgrade;

      zstd on;
      zstd_types application/x-nix-archive;
    '';
  };
}
```

For testing I unpacked a linux kernel tarball to the nix store using
this command `nix-prefetch-url --unpack https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v6.x/linux-6.1.8.tar.gz`.

Before:

```console
$ nix build && rm -rf /tmp/hello  && time ./result/bin/nix copy --no-check-sigs --from https://cache.thalheim.io --to 'file:///tmp/hello?compression=none' '/nix/store/j42mahch5f0jvfmayhzwbb88sw36fvah-linux-6.1.8.tar.gz'

Merge pull request #7739 from obsidiansystems/user-settings
Move `trustedUsers` and `allowedUsers` to separate config struct
2023-02-03 11:55:37 +01:00
John Ericson a47e055e09 Move trustedUsers and allowedUsers to separate config struct
These settings are not needed for libstore at all, they are just used by
the nix daemon *command* for authorization on unix domain sockets. My
moving them to a new configuration struct just in that file, we avoid
them leaking anywhere else.

Also, it is good to break up the mammoth `Settings` struct in general.
Issue #5638 tracks this.

The message is not changed because I do not want to regress in
convenience to the user. Just saying "this connection is not trusted"
doesn't tell them out to fix the issue. The ideal thing to do would be
to somehow parameterize `processCommand` on how the error should be
displayed, so different sorts of connections can display different
information to the user based on how authentication is performed for the
connection in question. This, however, is a good bit more work, so it is
left for the future.

This came up with me thinking about the tcp:// store (#5265). The larger
project is not TCP *per se*, but the idea that it should be possible for
something else to manage access control to services like the Nix Daemon,
and those services simply trust or trust the incoming connection as they
are told. This is a more capability-oriented way of thinking about trust
than "every server implements its own auth separately" as we are used to today.

Its very great that libstore itself already implements just this model,
and so via this refactor I basically want to "enshrine" that so it
continues to be the case.

John Ericson 479c011784 Get rid of the authHook parameter on processConnection
This is (morally) dead code.

no longer needed.

I created this in 8d4162ff9e, so it is
fitting that I now destroy it :).

The method decls never were upstream, and accidentally added by me in

Théophane Hufschmitt 6bdf4edb77 Keep the default profile the same
It's used as the “system” profile in a bunch of places, so better not
touch it. Besides, it doesn't hurt to keep it since it's owned by root
any way, so it doesn't have the `chown` problem that the user profiles
had and that led to wanting to move them on the client-side.

2023-01-17 14:17:28 +01:00
Théophane Hufschmitt a5919f4754 Move the default profiles to the user’s home
Rather than using `/nix/var/nix/{profiles,gcroots}/per-user/`, put the user
profiles and gcroots under `$XDG_DATA_DIR/nix/{profiles,gcroots}`.

This means that the daemon no longer needs to manage these paths itself
(they are fully handled client-side). In particular, it doesn’t have to
`chown` them anymore (removing one need for root).

This does change the layout of the gc-roots created by nix-env, and is
likely to break some stuff, so I’m not sure how to properly handle that.

John Ericson f419ab48e6 Try to fix build failure
Failure: https://hydra.nixos.org/build/205357257/nixlog/1

The problem seems to be trying to `std::visit` a derived class of
`std::variant`. Per
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63616709/incomplete-type-stdvariant-used-in-nested-name-specifier
certain C++ standard library implementations allow this, but others do
not.

The solution is simply to call the `raw` method, which upcasts the
reference back to the `std::variant`.

    __structuredAttrs = true;
    outputChecks.out.unsafeDiscardReferences = true;

Eelco Dolstra 28d5b5cd45 Fix deadlock between auto-GC and addTempRoot()
Previously addTempRoot() acquired the LocalStore state lock and waited
for the garbage collector to reply. If the garbage collector is in the
same process (as it the case with auto-GC), this would deadlock as
soon as the garbage collector thread needs the LocalStore state lock.

So now addTempRoot() uses separate Syncs for the state that it
needs. As long at the auto-GC thread doesn't call addTempRoot() (which
it shouldn't), it shouldn't deadlock.

Fixes #3224.

Eelco Dolstra 224b56f10e Move creation of the temp roots file into its own function
This also moves the file handle into its own Sync object so we're not
holding the _state while acquiring the file lock. There was no real
deadlock risk here since locking a newly created file cannot block,
but it's still a bit nicer.

Release shared lock before acquiring exclusive lock
In principle, this should avoid deadlocks where two instances of Nix are
holding a shared lock on big-lock and are both waiting to get an
exclusive lock.

However, it seems like `flock(2)` is supposed to do this automatically,
so it's not clear whether this is actually where the problem comes from.

The errcode returned is not the extended one. The only way to make open

    warning: creating statement 'insert or rplace into NARs(cache, hashPart, namePart, url, compression, fileHash, fileSize, narHash, narSize, refs, deriver, sigs, ca, timestamp, present) values (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, 1)': at offset 10: SQL logic error, near "rplace": syntax error (in '/tmp/nix-shell.grQ6f7/nix-test/tests/binary-cache/test-home/.cache/nix/binary-cache-v6.sqlite')

It's not the best example; more important information will be in
the message for e.g. a constraint violation.

I don't see why this specific error is printed as a warning, but
that's for another commit.

Eelco Dolstra 0687e16c4a Fix a crash in DerivedPath::Built::toJSON() with impure derivations
The use of 'nullptr' here didn't result in a null JSON value, but in a
nullptr being cast to a string, which aborts.

Allow disabling build users by unsetting build-users-group
Unsetting `build-users-group` (without `auto-allocate-uids` enabled)
gives the following error:

```
src/libstore/lock.cc:25: static std::unique_ptr<nix::UserLock> nix::SimpleUserLock::acquire(): Assertion `settings.buildUsersGroup != ""' failed.
```

Fix the logic in `useBuildUsers` and document the default value
for `build-users-group`.

These are purely related to NIX_PATH / -I command line parsing, so put
them in libexpr.

regnat 04b113f6cb Fix nix log with CA derivations
Fix #6209

When trying to run `nix log <installable>`, try first to resolve the derivation pointed to
by `<installable>` as it is the resolved one that holds the build log.

This has a couple of shortcomings:
1. It’s expensive as it requires re-reading the derivation
2. It’s brittle because if the derivation doesn’t exist anymore or can’t
   be resolved (which is the case if any one of its build inputs is missing),
   then we can’t access the log anymore

However, I don’t think we can do better (at least not right now).
The alternatives I see are:
1. Copy the build log for the un-resolved derivation. But that means a
   lot of duplication
2. Store the results of the resolving in the db. Which might be the best
   long-term solution, but leads to a whole new class of potential
   issues.

Linus Heckemann 8e0946e8df Remove repeat and enforce-determinism options
These only functioned if a very narrow combination of conditions held:

- The result path does not yet exist (--check did not result in
  repeated builds), AND
- The result path is not available from any configured substituters, AND
- No remote builders that can build the path are available.

If any of these do not hold, a derivation would be built 0 or 1 times
regardless of the repeat option. Thus, remove it to avoid confusion.
