Eelco Dolstra e41b5828db * Better stats. 2010-04-14 23:48:46 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d39d3c6264 * Implemented inherit. 2010-04-14 23:25:05 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 267dc693d2 * Fix builtins. 2010-04-14 22:59:39 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 81de12bc8f * Refactoring: move variable uses to a separate class. 2010-04-14 15:14:23 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 110d155778 * Implemented withs. 2010-04-14 15:01:04 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 9985230c00 * After parsing, compute level/displacement pairs for each variable
use site, allowing environments to be stores as vectors of values
  rather than maps.  This should speed up evaluation and reduce the
  number of allocations.
2010-04-14 14:42:32 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 816dd3f061 * Remove more obsolete code. 2010-04-14 12:49:05 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 011b5da0f4 * Get nix-env to compile again. 2010-04-14 09:39:06 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 85d13c8f93 * Change the semantics of "with" so that inner "withs" take
precedence, i.e. `with {x=1;}; with {x=2;}; x' evaluates to 2'.
  This has a simpler implementation and seems more natural.  There
  doesn't seem to be any code in Nixpkgs or NixOS that relies on the
  old behaviour.
2010-04-14 08:37:08 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 816f9c0f6f * Use std::tr1::unordered_set instead of std::set for the symbol
table.  This gives a 10% speed increase on `nix-instantiate
  /etc/nixos/nixos -A system --readonly-mode'.
2010-04-13 14:34:11 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 7d47498b5e * Evaluate lets directly (i.e. without desugaring to `rec { attrs...;
<let-body> = e; }.<let-body>).  This prevents the unnecessary
  allocation of an attribute set.
2010-04-13 13:42:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ac1e8f40d4 * Use a symbol table to represent identifiers and attribute names
efficiently.  The symbol table ensures that there is only one copy
  of each symbol, thus allowing symbols to be compared efficiently
  using a pointer equality test.
2010-04-13 12:25:42 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 10e8b1fd15 * Finished the ATerm-less parser. 2010-04-12 23:33:23 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 0d272fca79 * Remove some obsolete functions. 2010-04-12 23:31:47 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d4f0b0fc6c * Indented strings. 2010-04-12 22:03:27 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra a60317f20f * More missing constructs. 2010-04-12 21:21:24 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4d6ad5be17 * Don't use ATerms for the abstract syntax trees anymore. Not
finished yet.
2010-04-12 18:30:11 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ed711f73bc * Don't use ATerms to represent integers in the lexer. 2010-04-12 10:38:18 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra db90b88e65 * Hack to support builderDefs expressions. 2010-04-12 09:50:20 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4e49002576 * Doh. 2010-04-12 09:45:00 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c3f228f296 2010-04-12 09:14:27 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès aac5fcfbb5 Re-add drvPath' and outPath' attributes to <derivation> XML nodes.
This fixes a regression introduced in r20882 ("Add source location
information to the XML output.").

* src/libexpr/expr-to-xml.cc (nix::printTermAsXML): Dereference the
  attribute RHS from "drvPath" and "outPath".
2010-04-09 21:30:55 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f3dc7ab877 * Keep more statistics about stack space usage.
* Reduce stack space usage.
2010-04-09 12:00:49 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra b7b3dd55f9 * Remove a lot of dead code. 2010-04-08 11:41:19 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 7e048eddf5 * Fix blackholing. If evaluation fails due to an assertion failure,
then the blackhole has to be removed to ensure that repeated
  evaluation of the same value gives an assertion failure again rather
  than an "infinite recursion" error.
2010-04-08 11:25:14 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra af2a372bb0 * Update autoCallFunction() and findAlongAttrPath(). 2010-04-07 15:47:06 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 9a64454faa * expr-to-xml -> value-to-xml. 2010-04-07 13:59:45 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra fc92244ba8 * Implemented the primops necessary for generating the NixOS manual. 2010-04-07 13:55:46 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra a353aef0b1 * In eval(), don't use the target value `v' as a temporary.
Overwriting `v' breaks when the expression evaluation to an
  assertion failure or throw.
2010-04-06 14:15:29 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra a5ece7d016 * Removed the `~' operator. 2010-04-01 16:59:07 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c172274e17 * Quick hack to make coerceToString work more or less correctly on
nested lists.  `nix-instantiate' can now evaluate the NixOS system
  derivation attribute correctly (in 2.1s on my laptop vs. 6.2s for
  the trunk).
2010-04-01 14:35:03 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 7b851915bf * Improve sharing. 2010-04-01 12:04:57 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 95cc417d76 * Functions are incomparable. 2010-04-01 10:55:36 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 71f026292b * Make `derivation' lazy again for performance. It also turns out
that there are some places in Nixpkgs (php_configurable /
  composableDerivation, it seems) that call `derivation' with
  incorrect arguments (namely, the `name' attribute missing) but get
  away with it because of laziness.
2010-04-01 09:55:57 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra dc31305b38 * Fixed the trace primop and path comparison.
* Removed exprToString and stringToExpr because there is no ATerm
  representation to work on anymore (and exposing the internals of the
  evaluator like this is not a good idea anyway).
2010-03-31 20:09:20 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 979f163615 * Handle string contexts. `nix-instantiate' can now correctly compute
the `firefoxWrapper' attribute in Nixpkgs, and it's about 3 times
  faster than the trunk :-)
2010-03-31 19:52:29 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d8cd3115d8 * Get nix-env to compile. 2010-03-31 19:12:08 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 55e207b2dc * Cache parse trees to prevent repeated parsing of imported Nix
expressions.
2010-03-31 16:14:32 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3d94be61ea * Implemented derivations. 2010-03-31 15:38:03 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès 09381cccff Make source location info in the XML output optional.
* src/libexpr/expr-to-xml.cc (nix::showAttrs): Add `location'
  parameter.  Provide location XML attributes when it's true.  Update
  callers.
  (nix::printTermAsXML): Likewise.

* src/libexpr/expr-to-xml.hh (nix::printTermAsXML): Update prototype;
  have `location' default to `false'.

* src/nix-instantiate/nix-instantiate.cc (printResult, processExpr): Add
  `location' parameter; update callers.
  (run): Add support for `--no-location'.

* src/nix-instantiate/help.txt: Update accordingly.

* tests/lang.sh: Invoke `nix-instantiate' with `--no-location' for the
  XML tests.

* tests/lang/eval-okay-toxml.exp, tests/lang/eval-okay-to-xml.nix: New
  files.
2010-03-31 12:38:31 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 13c2adc897 * Implemented `rec { inherit ...; }'. 2010-03-31 11:05:39 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4c53ca2692 * Compare nulls. 2010-03-31 09:54:12 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès 471419d1fa Add source location information to the XML output.
* src/libexpr/expr-to-xml.cc (nix::showAttrs): Dereference the attribute
  RHS.  Add "path", "line", and "column" XML attributes to the node when
  source location information is available.
  (nix::printTermAsXML): Likewise for functions.
2010-03-31 08:29:05 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès eb07a4f1ee Escape `>' signs in the XML output.
* src/libutil/xml-writer.cc (nix::XMLWriter::writeAttrs): Escape `>'.
2010-03-31 08:29:01 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 7f19e03c65 * More primops. 2010-03-30 22:39:48 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 47df476daa * More operators / primops. 2010-03-30 18:05:54 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c9170be2bd * More primops. 2010-03-30 15:18:20 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c3aa615a5f * More primops. 2010-03-30 14:39:27 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 5b72d8a749 * Implemented `map'. 2010-03-30 13:47:59 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d78a05ab40 * Make `import' work. 2010-03-30 09:22:33 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 31428c3a06 * Started integrating the new evaluator. 2010-03-29 14:37:56 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 52090d2418 2010-03-29 10:13:51 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e3f32ac5af 2010-03-29 09:43:55 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 807a67bc74 2010-03-29 09:43:39 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 392811eb8f * Strings. 2010-03-28 18:27:07 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d96cdcea6b 2010-03-28 16:57:16 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3d2b835f30 * Implemented multi-argument primops. 2010-03-28 16:37:39 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 45d822f29c * Primops (not yet finished). 2010-03-26 15:45:53 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra cad8726b2c * Implemented the ==' and !=' operators. These now use a deep
equality test, so they also work for (finite) attribute sets and
  lists.
2010-03-26 13:27:26 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 8da118e4d0 * Measure stack usage. 2010-03-25 16:35:24 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c2ba4313fb * Implemented lists. 2010-03-25 15:38:37 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 25eedf085d * Quick and dirty implementation of with'. with e1; e2' is
basically desugared to `let <with> = e1; e2', and `lookupVar' looks
  in each <with> in the environment chain for an attribute with the
  specified name.
2010-03-25 14:51:04 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3c9f8fc9b6 * Don't convert variable names to strings. 2010-03-25 13:10:04 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f450384ded * Implement blackholing. 2010-03-25 12:51:14 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ef8bd919fc * Implement `...' and default function arguments. 2010-03-25 12:45:23 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 8a10360c91 * Simplify @-patterns: only {attrs}@name' or name@{attrs}' are now
allowed.  So `name1@name2', `{attrs1}@{attrs2}' and so on are now no
  longer legal.  This is no big loss because they were not useful
  anyway.

  This also changes the output of builtins.toXML for @-patterns
  slightly.
2010-03-25 12:19:41 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 7482349fe8 * Implemented attribute set pattern matches. 2010-03-24 23:40:00 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 0fd3648d34 * Store values in environments. 2010-03-24 12:41:08 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra b70bd8fe56 * Reduce the number of value allocations in eval() by moving
responsibility for allocation of the result to the caller.
2010-03-24 12:11:38 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d31c59eb17 * Plain lambdas. 2010-03-24 11:06:05 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e8f7978274 2010-03-23 19:19:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 0910ae9568 * Start of an evaluator that uses call-by-need (with thunk updating)
instead of (memoised) call-by-name.
2010-03-23 17:30:50 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 141294ff38 * Clean up error messages in killUser(). 2010-03-19 11:36:34 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f0c473c5f7 * Fix building on Cygwin (http://hydra.nixos.org/build/325071). 2010-03-16 13:01:52 +00:00
Nicolas Pierron 741b7577c1 Merge r20344 & r20346. 2010-03-14 11:58:07 +00:00
Lluís Batlle i Rossell 2fb0df83e9 Uh. somehow a Makefile tab got in as spaces. Fixing. 2010-03-11 21:22:52 +00:00
Lluís Batlle i Rossell 13cce8ec45 Making 'bin2c' to be built with the compiler for the local system.
I copied the configure.ac code about CC_FOR_BUILD from libX11.
2010-03-11 20:56:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e020d80e4e * Sync with the trunk. 2010-03-11 15:45:05 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès 05e15049a5 Show the build user's group in /etc/group in chroots.
* src/libstore/build.cc (nix::DerivationGoal::startBuilder): Create
  /etc/group showing the build user's group.
2010-03-11 14:47:04 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 070057c1b9 * Sync with the trunk. 2010-03-11 10:52:52 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès c752c9f41a Fix thinko in r20547.
* src/libstore/build.cc (nix::DerivationGoal::startBuilder): Fix the GID
  of the build user in /etc/passwd.
2010-03-11 10:33:04 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès 2e8eaca573 Clear supplementary groups of `nixbld' in /etc/passwd in chroots.
* src/libstore/build.cc (nix::DerivationGoal::startBuilder): Don't
  display any supplementary groups for `nixbld' in /etc/passwd.
2010-03-11 10:21:23 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 1a65142ec4 * Remove a debug statement. 2010-03-10 12:46:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4c356acd04 * In `nix-store --export', abort if the contents of a path has
changed.  This prevents corrupt paths from spreading to other
  machines.  Note that checking the hash is cheap because we're
  hashing anyway (because of the --sign feature).
2010-03-09 14:32:03 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 44f6e6de77 * Set gc-keep-outputs' or gc-keep-derivations' to false with
`--delete --ignore-liveness'.
2010-03-08 21:31:42 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 2e4ef03aa3 * Increase the sqlite timeout. 2010-03-08 10:35:45 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 04791840f4 * Emit warning='1' or error='1' attributes for lines marked as
warnings or errors with \e[w or \e[e.
2010-03-05 12:54:58 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra bc6f7fc139 * Remove some unused functions. 2010-03-04 13:03:26 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra fb6e223ddc * Synced with the trunk. 2010-03-04 12:15:00 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e14e2399ed * Prevent a potential memory corruption problem if an ATerm garbage
collection happens during fixAttrs().
2010-03-02 20:23:42 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 56af8e86e3 * Protect the true', false' and `__overrides' constants. Without
an ATprotect call, these could be garbage collected, leading to
  weird crashes or wrong results.
2010-03-02 20:09:12 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3f9e647ae8 * checkInterrupt() shouldn't be called from a destructor. 2010-03-02 19:04:17 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 594eaddd11 * When using the included sqlite/aterm libraries, build with
--enable-shared.
* In libutil/libstore/libexpr etc., link against sqlite and aterm.
* Some more header file hygiene.
2010-03-02 15:58:13 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 24035b98b1 * Implement RemoteStore::queryValidPaths(). 2010-02-26 12:05:01 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e42401ee7b * Implement RemoteStore::queryDerivationOutputs(). 2010-02-25 15:52:22 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra af565c348a * Support read-only access to the database. 2010-02-24 16:44:43 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e33f67ff0b * Refactor the upgrade / database initialisation logic a bit. 2010-02-24 16:30:20 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 84a4dd5ff0 * Don't use fdatasync since it doesn't work on Snow Leopard.
* Don't refer to config.h in util.hh, because config.h is not
  installed (http://hydra.nixos.org/build/303053).
2010-02-24 15:46:06 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra cfe742cfc5 * A function to query just the database id of a valid path. 2010-02-24 15:07:23 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 6baa2a2f5e 2010-02-24 14:39:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 9fd85c94de * Use `truncate' journal mode, which should be a bit faster. 2010-02-24 14:22:34 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra fefd467539 * `helpText' is now zero-terminated. 2010-02-24 13:24:27 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra a3c63d0d6c * Disable fsync() in SQLite if the fsync-metadata option is set to
false.
* Change the default for `fsync-metadata' to true.
* Disable `fsync-metadata' in `make check'.
2010-02-24 13:12:57 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 90b6352d0a * Do registerValidPaths() in one transaction, which is much faster.
E.g. it cuts the runtime of the referrers test from 50s to 23s.
2010-02-24 12:48:00 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra fae0427324 * ADDITIONAL_NETWORK_LIBS -> LIBS. 2010-02-24 12:25:48 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra fa6a4fcb11 * Add ${sqlite_lib} everywhere. Just adding it in `libstore' doesn't
work on x86_64 when sqlite is compiled statically.
2010-02-24 12:18:48 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 5954eadf67 * Remove the fdatasync check since it's no longer needed. 2010-02-24 12:16:50 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 462bd50aef * Use normal (rather than full) synchronous mode, which I gather from
the description at http://www.sqlite.org/atomiccommit.html should be
  safe enough.
2010-02-24 10:57:57 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 63b09c5e41 2010-02-23 22:31:38 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra b4e6d98fc3 * configure: flag --with-sqlite. 2010-02-23 22:12:46 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 2b20318b0e 2010-02-22 14:24:37 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 9cda616949 * The database needs a trigger to get rid of self-references to
prevent a foreign key constraint violation on the Refs table when
  deleting a path.
2010-02-22 14:18:55 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c4d388add4 * Get derivation outputs from the database instead of the .drv file,
which requires more I/O.
2010-02-22 12:44:36 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 103cfee056 * Revert r19650 (implement gc-keep-outputs by looking for derivations
with the same name as the output) and instead use the
  DerivationOutputs table in the database, which is the correct way to
  to do things.
2010-02-22 11:44:17 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 299ff64812 * Put the derivation outputs in the database. This is useful for the
garbage collector.
2010-02-22 11:15:50 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 1930570ad9 * Foreign key support in SQLite is not a persistent setting, so enable
it at startup.
* Implement negative caching.  Now `make check' passes.
2010-02-19 17:15:22 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 9c9a88e9e2 * Implement more stuff. 2010-02-19 16:43:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 762cee72cc * Implement registerValidPath(). 2010-02-19 16:04:51 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 268f9aaf28 * Implemented queryValidPaths() and verifyStore(). 2010-02-18 16:51:27 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 836e5b6f57 * Implemented queryReferrers(). 2010-02-18 16:21:59 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 77cb9e3fb1 * Implement queryPathInfo(). 2010-02-18 15:52:57 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 885e22b16e * Implement isValidPath(). 2010-02-18 15:11:08 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra cfb09e0fad * Automatically abort transactions if they go out of scope without
committing.
2010-02-18 14:40:07 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e0305bb7a8 * Some wrapper objects to ensure that SQLite objects are properly
destroyed.
2010-02-18 14:30:42 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra a053d2d8e5 * Add the deriver to the ValidPaths table. In principle we could now
store all the derivers of a path efficiently.  But that opens a big
  can of worms with respect to garbage collector semantics.
2010-02-18 13:48:18 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra dbddac0fe9 * Assign an integer id to every row in the ValidPaths table in order
to make the Refs table more space-efficient.  For instance, this
  reduces the size of the database on my laptop from 93 MiB to 18
  MiB.  (It was 72 MiB with the old schema on an ext3 disk with a 1
  KiB block size.)
2010-02-18 13:40:46 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c1a07f9445 * Convert the Nix database to SQLite. 2010-02-18 13:16:59 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès 20186a4079 Don't rely on `PATH_MAX' on GNU. 2010-02-10 15:55:50 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4e17be7981 * Revert r19797, and use a simpler solution: just don't monitor build
hooks for silence.  It's unnecessary because the remote nix-store
  command is already monitoring the real build.
2010-02-03 21:38:41 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f859a8d3c3 * While waiting for a lock, print a sign of life every 5 minutes.
This prevents remote builders from being killed by the
  `max-silent-time' inactivity monitor while they are waiting for a
  long garbage collection to finish.  This happens fairly often in the
  Hydra build farm.
2010-02-03 21:22:57 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4bbbe25802 * Remove most Cygwin-specific code. Cygwin 1.7 implements advisory
POSIX locks, and simulates Unix-style file deletion semantics
  sufficiently.  Note that this means that Nix won't work on Cygwin
  1.5 anymore.
2010-02-02 15:28:36 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 2723d9b56e * If fdatasync() isn't available, use fsync(). 2010-02-02 11:57:49 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 07ffdc2862 * Added an option "fsync-metadata" to fsync() changes to
/nix/var/nix/db.
* Removed the function writeStringToFile since it does (almost) the
  same thing as writeFile.
2010-01-29 12:22:58 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ad529fb89f * Don't consider a store path valid if its info file exists but is
zero bytes long.  That makes Nix more robust in case of crashes
  (especially on ext4).
2010-01-29 11:53:58 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra fdcaf37361 * Made `nix-store -qR --include-outputs' much faster if there are
multiple paths specified on the command line (from O(n * m) to O(n +
  m), where n is the number of arguments and m is the size of the
  closure).
2010-01-25 17:18:44 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 5388944e8d * Make the garbage collector do the right thing when `gc-keep-outputs'
is enabled by not depending on the deriver.
2010-01-25 16:04:32 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f0c0277970 * On startup, set the default SIGCHLD handler. This is so that Nix
works correctly in weird environments where the SIGCHLD handler is
  set to "ignore".
2010-01-12 12:22:38 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ef92a14bfe * Include config.h before the C library headers, because it defines
_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64.  Without it, functions like stat() fail on
  large file sizes.  This happened with a Nix store on squashfs:

  $ nix-store --dump /tmp/mnt/46wzqnk4cbdwh1dclhrpqnnz1icak6n7-local-net-cmds > /dev/null
  error: getting attributes of path `/tmp/mnt/46wzqnk4cbdwh1dclhrpqnnz1icak6n7-local-net-cmds': Value too large for defined data type

  $ stat /tmp/mnt/46wzqnk4cbdwh1dclhrpqnnz1icak6n7-local-net-cmds
  File: `/tmp/mnt/46wzqnk4cbdwh1dclhrpqnnz1icak6n7-local-net-cmds'
  Size: 0               Blocks: 36028797018963968 IO Block: 1024   regular empty file

  (This is a bug in squashfs or mksquashfs, but it shouldn't cause Nix
  to fail.)
2009-12-17 14:12:44 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 945d8218fb * Build correctly against newer ATerm releases. Fixes "error: 'union'
tag used in naming 'struct _ATerm'".
2009-12-16 15:29:50 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra bcd6cdf0d8 * Give a better error message when trying to build something and
readOnlyMode is set.
2009-12-09 17:45:22 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 13618b191e * Grrr. 2009-11-24 13:28:46 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra aa5a768720 * GCC 4.4 is stricter about the EOF macro
(http://hydra.nixos.org/build/156340).
2009-11-24 12:56:26 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 9b8fda796b * Templatise getIntArg / string2Int. 2009-11-24 12:26:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 8022015552 * In the garbage collector, don't count files with a link count > 1 in
the "bytes/blocks freed" statistics.
2009-11-24 10:51:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f9e766db98 * Randomise the order in which we delete entries to make the collector
less biased towards deleting paths that come alphabetically first
  (e.g. /nix/store/000...).  This matters when using --max-freed etc.
2009-11-24 09:53:18 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ca50c83fbb 2009-11-23 21:21:29 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3d55f1eb57 * A command `nix-store --query --roots <paths>' to find the garbage
collector roots that point (directly or indirectly) to the given
  paths.
2009-11-23 18:16:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ae6bf87273 * `nix-store --gc --print-roots': also print the path of the actual
root symlink, not just its target.  E.g.:

  /nix/var/nix/profiles/system-99-link -> /nix/store/76kwf88657nq7wgk1hx3l1z5q91zb9wd-system
2009-11-23 17:23:12 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c364d5d1e3 * Made the garbage collector a lot faster. It no longer computes the
complete set of live and dead paths before starting the actual
  deletion, but determines liveness on demand.  I.e. for any path in
  the store, it first tries to delete all the referrers, and then the
  path itself.  This means that the collector can start deleting paths
  almost immediately.
2009-11-23 16:34:24 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 8824d60fe5 * Remove the --use-atime / --max-atime garbage collector flags. Many
(Linux) machines no longer maintain the atime because it's too
  expensive, and on the machines where --use-atime is useful (like the
  buildfarm), reading the atimes on the entire Nix store takes way too
  much time to make it practical.
