Experimental features are now opt-in. There is currently one
experimental feature: "nix-command" (which enables the "nix"
command. This will allow us to merge experimental features more
quickly, without committing to supporting them indefinitely.
Typical usage:
$ nix build --experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' nixpkgs#hello
(cherry picked from commit 8e478c2341,
without the "flakes" feature)
Previously, SANDBOX_SHELL was set to empty when unavailable. This
caused issues when actually generating the sandbox. Instead, just set
SANDBOX_SHELL when --with-sandbox-shell= is non-empty. Alternative
implementation to https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/3038.
Pure mode should not try to source the user’s bashrc file. These may
have many impurities that the user does not expect to get into their
shell.
Fixes#3090
This integrates the functionality of the index-debuginfo program in
nixos-channel-scripts to maintain an index of DWARF debuginfo files in
a format usable by dwarffs. Thus the debug info index is updated by
Hydra rather than by the channel mirroring script.
Example usage:
$ nix copy --to 'file:///tmp/binary-cache?index-debug-info=true' /nix/store/vr9mhcch3fljzzkjld3kvkggvpq38cva-nix-2.2.2-debug
$ cat /tmp/binary-cache/debuginfo/036b210b03bad75ab2d8fc80b7a146f98e7f1ecf.debug
{"archive":"../nar/0313h2kdhk4v73xna9ysiksp2v8xrsk5xsw79mmwr3rg7byb4ka8.nar.xz","member":"lib/debug/.build-id/03/6b210b03bad75ab2d8fc80b7a146f98e7f1ecf.debug"}
Fixes#3083.
Previously we allowed any length of name for Nix derivations. This is
bad because different file systems have different max lengths. To make
things predictable, I have picked a max. This was done by trying to
build this derivation:
derivation {
name = "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa";
builder = "/no-such-path";
system = "x86_64-linux";
}
Take off one a and it will not lead to file name too long. That ends
up being 212 a’s. An even smaller max could be picked if we want to
support more file systems.
Working backwards, this is why:
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-${name}.drv.chroot
> 255 - 32 - 1 - 4 - 7 = 211
These are already handled separately. This fixes warnings like
warning: ignoring the user-specified setting 'max-jobs', because it is a restricted setting and you are not a trusted user
when using the -j flag.
If a NAR is already in the store, addToStore doesn't read the source
which makes the protocol go out of sync. This happens for example when
two client try to nix-copy-closure the same derivation at the same time.
Introduce the SizeSource which allows to bound how much data is being
read from a source. It also contains a drainAll() function to discard
the rest of the source, useful to keep the nix protocol in sync.
