Eelco Dolstra 18b7363a69 Support optional sandbox paths
For example, you can now set

  build-sandbox-paths = /dev/nvidiactl?

to specify that /dev/nvidiactl should only be mounted in the sandbox
if it exists in the host filesystem. This is useful e.g. for EC2
images that should support both CUDA and non-CUDA instances.

Eelco Dolstra ae8884b949 Fix /dev/ptmx in sandboxes
This was broken since ff0c0b645c. Since
I can't figure out how to mount a devpts instance in the sandbox,
let's just bind-mount the host devpts.

Eelco Dolstra c55bf085eb printMsg(lvlError, ...) -> printError(...) etc. 2016-09-21 16:54:53 +02:00
Eelco Dolstra 4036185cb4 Some notational convenience for formatting strings
We can now write

  throw Error("file '%s' not found", path);

instead of

  throw Error(format("file '%s' not found") % path);

and similarly

  printError("file '%s' not found", path);

instead of

  printMsg(lvlError, format("file '%s' not found") % path);

Eelco Dolstra ff0c0b645c Don't run builds as root in the user namespace
This largely reverts c68e5913c7. Running
builds as root breaks "cp -p", since when running as root, "cp -p"
assumes that it can succesfully chown() files. But that's not actually
the case since the user namespace doesn't provide a complete uid
mapping. So it barfs with a fatal error message ("cp: failed to
preserve ownership for 'foo': Invalid argument").

Eelco Dolstra 0babc4ff31 Fix assertion failure after early build setup failure 2016-09-08 17:29:50 +02:00
Eelco Dolstra 97b1af1cbe Fix --fallback
This fixes an assertion failure in "assert(goal);" in
Worker::waitForInput() after a substitution goal is cancelled by the
termination of another goal. The problem was the line

  //worker.childTerminated(shared_from_this()); // FIXME

in the SubstitutionGoal destructor. This was disabled because
shared_from_this() obviously doesn't work from a destructor. So we now
use a real pointer for object identity.

Eelco Dolstra 22d6e31fc6 Add a mechanism for derivation attributes to reference the derivation's outputs
For example, you can now say:

  configureFlags = "--prefix=${placeholder "out"} --includedir=${placeholder "dev"}";

The strings returned by the ‘placeholder’ builtin are replaced at
build time by the actual store paths corresponding to the specified
outputs.

Previously, you had to work around the inability to self-reference by doing stuff like:

  preConfigure = ''
    configureFlags+=" --prefix $out --includedir=$dev"
  '';

or rely on ad-hoc variable interpolation semantics in Autoconf or Make
(e.g. --prefix=\$(out)), which doesn't always work.

Eelco Dolstra d961c29c9c Mark content-addressed paths in the Nix database and in .narinfo

Eelco Dolstra 3eb6217508 Add a "root" parameter to local stores
This makes it easier to create a diverted store, i.e.

  NIX_REMOTE="local?root=/tmp/root"

instead of

  NIX_REMOTE="local?real=/tmp/root/nix/store&state=/tmp/root/nix/var/nix" NIX_LOG_DIR=/tmp/root/nix/var/log

Eelco Dolstra c68e5913c7 Run builds in a user namespace
This way, all builds appear to have a uid/gid of 0 inside the
chroot. In the future, this may allow using programs like
systemd-nspawn inside builds, but that will require assigning a larger
UID/GID map to the build.

Issue #625.

Eelco Dolstra 202683a4fc Use O_CLOEXEC in most places 2016-06-09 16:37:08 +02:00
Eelco Dolstra 5e51ffb1c2 Support sandbox builds by non-root users
This allows an unprivileged user to perform builds on a diverted store
(i.e. where the physical store location differs from the logical
location).

Example:

  $ NIX_LOG_DIR=/tmp/log NIX_REMOTE="local?real=/tmp/store&state=/tmp/var" nix-build -E \
    'with import <nixpkgs> {}; runCommand "foo" { buildInputs = [procps nettools]; } "id; ps; ifconfig; echo $out > $out"'

will do a build in the Nix store physically in /tmp/store but
logically in /nix/store (and thus using substituters for the latter).

Eelco Dolstra 080d607975 Don't call shared_from_this() from a destructor 2016-06-03 14:02:44 +02:00
Eelco Dolstra 4494000e04 LocalStore: Allow the physical and logical store directories to differ
This is primarily to subsume the functionality of the
copy-from-other-stores substituter. For example, in the NixOS
installer, we can now do (assuming we're in the target chroot, and the
Nix store of the installation CD is bind-mounted on /tmp/nix):

  $ nix-build ... --option substituters 'local?state=/tmp/nix/var&real=/tmp/nix/store'

However, unlike copy-from-other-stores, this also allows write access
to such a store. One application might be fetching substitutes for
/nix/store in a situation where the user doesn't have sufficient
privileges to create /nix, e.g.:

  $ NIX_REMOTE="local?state=/home/alice/nix/var&real=/home/alice/nix/store" nix-build ...

Eelco Dolstra 5761827d5b Show the log tail when a build fails
If --no-build-output is given (which will become the default for the

the build fails.

Eelco Dolstra 41633f9f73 Improved logging abstraction
This also gets rid of --log-type, since the nested log type isn't
useful in a multi-threaded situation, and nobody cares about the
"pretty" log type.

Eelco Dolstra e0204f8d46 Move path info caching from BinaryCacheStore to Store
Caching path info is generally useful. For instance, it speeds up "nix
path-info -rS /run/current-system" (i.e. showing the closure sizes of
all paths in the closure of the current system) from 5.6s to 0.15s.

This also eliminates some APIs like Store::queryDeriver() and
Store::queryReferences().

Eelco Dolstra 9cee600c88 LocalStore: Keep track of ultimately trusted paths
These are content-addressed paths or outputs of locally performed
builds. They are trusted even if they don't have signatures, so "nix
verify-paths" won't complain about them.

Eelco Dolstra c10c61449f Eliminate the "store" global variable
Also, move a few free-standing functions into StoreAPI and Derivation.

Also, introduce a non-nullable smart pointer, ref<T>, which is just a
wrapper around std::shared_ptr ensuring that the pointer is never
null. (For reference-counted values, this is better than passing a
"T&", because the latter doesn't maintain the refcount. Usually, the
caller will have a shared_ptr keeping the value alive, but that's not
always the case, e.g., when passing a reference to a std::thread via
std::bind.)

Eelco Dolstra d367b8e787 Add build mode to compute fixed-output derivation hashes
For example,

  $ nix-build --hash -A nix-repl.src

will build the fixed-output derivation nix-repl.src (a fetchFromGitHub
call), but instead of *verifying* the hash given in the Nix
expression, it prints out the resulting hash, and then moves the
result to its content-addressed location in the Nix store. E.g

  build produced path ‘/nix/store/504a4k6zi69dq0yjc0bm12pa65bccxam-nix-repl-8a2f5f0607540ffe56b56d52db544373e1efb980-src’ with sha256 hash ‘0cjablz01i0g9smnavhf86imwx1f9mnh5flax75i615ml71gsr88’

The goal of this is to make all nix-prefetch-* scripts unnecessary: we
can just let Nix run the real thing (i.e., the corresponding fetch*
derivation).

Another example:

  $ nix-build --hash -E 'with import <nixpkgs> {}; fetchgit { url = "https://github.com/NixOS/nix.git"; sha256 = "ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff"; }'
  ...
  git revision is 9e7c1a4bbd
  ...
  build produced path ‘/nix/store/gmsnh9i7x4mb7pyd2ns7n3c9l90jfsi1-nix’ with sha256 hash ‘1188xb621diw89n25rifqg9lxnzpz7nj5bfh4i1y3dnis0dmc0zp’

(Having to specify a fake sha256 hash is a bit annoying...)
