Eelco Dolstra 4a79cba511 Allow selecting derivation outputs using 'installable!outputs'
E.g. 'nixpkgs#glibc^dev,static' or 'nixpkgs#glibc^*'.

Eelco Dolstra 1ddabe1a01 nix: Respect meta.outputsToInstall, and use all outputs by default
'nix profile install' will now install all outputs listed in the
package's meta.outputsToInstall attribute, or all outputs if that
attribute doesn't exist. This makes it behave consistently with
nix-env. Fixes #6385.

Furthermore, for consistency, all other 'nix' commands do this as
well. E.g. 'nix build' will build and symlink the outputs in
meta.outputsToInstall, defaulting to all outputs. Previously, it only
built/symlinked the first output. Note that this means that selecting
a specific output using attrpath selection (e.g. 'nix build
nixpkgs#libxml2.dev') no longer works. A subsequent PR will add a way
to specify the desired outputs explicitly.

Eelco Dolstra 474695975d EvalCache: Revert to using symbols in getAttr() 2022-04-26 14:01:42 +02:00
pennae a385e51a08 rename SymbolIdx -> Symbol, Symbol -> SymbolStr
after #6218 `Symbol` no longer confers a uniqueness invariant on the
string it wraps, it is now possible to create multiple symbols that
compare equal but whose string contents have different addresses. this
guarantee is now only provided by `SymbolIdx`, leaving `Symbol` only as
a string wrapper that knows about the intricacies of how symbols need to
be formatted for output.

this change renames `SymbolIdx` to `Symbol` to restore the previous
semantics of `Symbol` to that name. we also keep the wrapper type and
rename it to `SymbolStr` instead of returning plain strings from lookups
into the symbol table because symbols are formatted for output in many
places. theoretically we do not need `SymbolStr`, only a function that
formats a string for output as a symbol, but having to wrap every symbol
that appears in a message into eg `formatSymbol()` is error-prone and
inconvient.

pennae 8775be3393 store Symbols in a table as well, like positions
this slightly increases the amount of memory used for any given symbol, but this
increase is more than made up for if the symbol is referenced more than once in
the EvalState that holds it. on average every symbol should be referenced at
least twice (once to introduce a binding, once to use it), so we expect no
increase in memory on average.

symbol tables are limited to 2³² entries like position tables, and similar
arguments apply to why overflow is not likely: 2³² symbols would require as many
string instances (at 24 bytes each) and map entries (at 24 bytes or more each,
assuming that the map holds on average at most one item per bucket as the docs
say). a full symbol table would require at least 192GB of memory just for
symbols, which is well out of reach. (an ofborg eval of nixpks today creates
less than a million symbols!)
2022-04-21 21:56:31 +02:00
pennae 6526d1676b replace most Pos objects/ptrs with indexes into a position table
Pos objects are somewhat wasteful as they duplicate the origin file name and
input type for each object. on files that produce more than one Pos when parsed
this a sizeable waste of memory (one pointer per Pos). the same goes for
ptr<Pos> on 64 bit machines: parsing enough source to require 8 bytes to locate
a position would need at least 8GB of input and 64GB of expression memory. it's
not likely that we'll hit that any time soon, so we can use a uint32_t index to
locate positions instead.

Théophane Hufschmitt 445ddebde5 Fix the error message in case of a missing realisation
Don’t say that the derivation is CA as it might happen on a non-ca
derivation too.

Technically we could always recover _something_ for a purely
input-addressed derivation (like we already do when the `ca-derivations`
xp feature isn’t enabled), but it seems better to consistently fail −
the end-result wouldn’t really make sense anyways in most cases.

Eelco Dolstra d89840b103 Make InstallableFlake::toValue() and toDerivation() behave consistently
In particular, this means that 'nix eval` (which uses toValue()) no
longer auto-calls functions or functors (because
AttrCursor::findAlongAttrPath() doesn't).

Fixes #6152.

Also use ref<> in a few places, and don't return attrpaths from
getCursor() because cursors already have a getAttrPath() method.

Eelco Dolstra a4604f1928 Add Store::buildPathsWithResults()
This function is like buildPaths(), except that it returns a vector of
BuildResults containing the exact statuses and output paths of each
derivation / substitution. This is convenient for functions like
Installable::build(), because they then don't need to do another
series of calls to get the outputs of CA derivations. It's also a
precondition to impure derivations, where we *can't* query the output
of those derivations since they're not stored in the Nix database.

Note that PathSubstitutionGoal can now also return a BuildStatus.

Matthew Bauer f222fba4dc Allow missing flake.nix for --override-input target
At this point, we don’t know if the input is a flake or not. So, we
should allow the user to override the input with a directory without a
flake.nix.

Ideally, we could figure whether the input was originally a flake or
not, but that would require instantiating the whole flake. So just
allow it to be missing here, and rely on checks later on to verify the
input for us.

Eelco Dolstra 3876238546 Add Installable::toDrvPaths()
This is needed to get the path of a derivation that might not exist
(e.g. for 'nix store copy-log').

InstallableStorePath::toDerivedPaths() cannot be used for this because
it calls readDerivation(), so it fails if the store doesn't have the
derivation.

regnat af99941279 Make experimental-features a proper type
Rather than having them plain strings scattered through the whole
codebase, create an enum containing all the known experimental features.

This means that
- Nix can now `warn` when an unkwown experimental feature is passed
  (making it much nicer to spot typos and spot deprecated features)
- It’s now easy to remove a feature altogether (once the feature isn’t
  experimental anymore or is dropped) by just removing the field for the
  enum and letting the compiler point us to all the now invalid usages
  of it.

John Ericson 242f9bf3dc std::visit by reference
I had started the trend of doing `std::visit` by value (because a type
error once mislead me into thinking that was the only form that
existed). While the optomizer in principle should be able to deal with
extra coppying or extra indirection once the lambdas inlined, sticking
with by reference is the conventional default. I hope this might even
improve performance.

Georges Dubus bc6e7ca046 Don't use read-only mode for nix build --dry-run
In dry run mode, new derivations can't be create, so running the command on anything that has not been evaluated before results in an error message of the form `don't know how to build these paths (may be caused by read-only store access)`.

For comparison, the classical `nix-build --dry-run` doesn't use read-only mode.

Closes #1795

Eelco Dolstra b2e8120d25 parseInstallables(): Parse store paths as store paths
If the store path contains a flake, this means that a command like
"nix path-info /path" will show info about /path, not about the
default output of the flake in /path. If you want the latter, you can
explicitly ask for it by doing "nix path-info path:/path".

Fixes #4568.

Eelco Dolstra eb6db4fd38 buildPaths(): Add an evalStore argument
With this, we don't have to copy the entire .drv closure to the
destination store ahead of time (or at all). Instead, buildPaths()
reads .drv files from the eval store and copies inputSrcs to the
destination store if it needs to build a derivation.

In particular, this now works:

  $ nix path-info --eval-store auto --store https://cache.nixos.org nixpkgs#hello

Previously this would fail as it would try to upload the hello .drv to
cache.nixos.org. Now the .drv is instantiated in the local store, and
then we check for the existence of the outputs in cache.nixos.org.

Add use-registries config option (and deprecate --no-registries flag)
Some people want to avoid using registries at all on their system; Instead
of having to add --no-registries to every command, this commit allows to
set use-registries = false in the config. --no-registries is still allowed
everywhere it was allowed previously, but is now deprecated.
