Miscellaneous improvements for positioning in eval-errors

libexpr: misc improvements for proper error position
When working on some more complex Nix code, there are sometimes rather
unhelpful or misleading error messages, especially if coerce-errors are
thrown.

This patch is a first steps towards improving that. I'm happy to file
more changes after that, but I'd like to gather some feedback first.

To summarize, this patch does the following things:

* Attrsets (a.k.a. `Bindings` in `libexpr`) now have a `Pos`. This is
  helpful e.g. to identify which attribute-set in `listToAttrs` is
  invalid.

* The `Value`-struct has a new method named `determinePos` which tries
  to guess the position of a value and falls back to a default if that's
  not possible.

  This can be used to provide better messages if a coercion fails.

* The new `determinePos`-API is used by `builtins.concatMap` now. With
  that change, Nix shows the exact position in the error where a wrong
  value was returned by the lambda.

  To make sure it's still obvious that `concatMap` is the problem,
  another stack-frame was added.

* The changes described above can be added to every other `primop`, but
  first I'd like to get some feedback about the overall approach.

Tweak error message 2021-02-22 15:24:14 +01:00
Eelco Dolstra 8d4268d190 Improve error formatting
Changes:

* The divider lines are gone. These were in practice a bit confusing,
  in particular with --show-trace or --keep-going, since then there
  were multiple lines, suggesting a start/end which wasn't the case.

* Instead, multi-line error messages are now indented to align with
  the prefix (e.g. "error: ").

* The 'description' field is gone since we weren't really using it.

* 'hint' is renamed to 'msg' since it really wasn't a hint.

* The error is now printed *before* the location info.

* The 'name' field is no longer printed since most of the time it
  wasn't very useful since it was just the name of the exception (like
  EvalError). Ideally in the future this would be a unique, easily
  googleable error ID (like rustc).

* "trace:" is now just "…". This assumes error contexts start with
  something like "while doing X".

Griffin Smith 626200713b Pass all args when auto-calling a function with an ellipsis
The command line options --arg and --argstr that are used by a bunch of
CLI commands to pass arguments to top-level functions in files go
through the same code-path as auto-calling top-level functions with
their default arguments - this, however, was only passing the arguments
that were *explicitly* mentioned in the formals of the function - in the
case of an as-pattern with an ellipsis (eg args @ { ... }) extra passed
arguments would get omitted. This fixes that to instead pass *all*
specified auto args in the case that our function has an ellipsis.

Require shallow clones to be requested explicitly
If you do a fetchTree on a Git repository, whether the result contains
a revCount attribute should not depend on whether that repository
happens to be a shallow clone or not. That would complicate caching a
lot and would be semantically messy. So applying fetchTree/fetchGit to
a shallow repository is now an error unless you pass the attribute
'shallow = true'. If 'shallow = true', we don't return revCount, even
if the repository is not actually shallow.

Note that Nix itself is not doing shallow clones at the moment. But it
could do so as an optimisation if the user specifies 'shallow = true'.

Issue #2988.

Eelco Dolstra bbe97dff8b Make the Store API more type-safe
Most functions now take a StorePath argument rather than a Path (which
is just an alias for std::string). The StorePath constructor ensures
that the path is syntactically correct (i.e. it looks like
<store-dir>/<base32-hash>-<name>). Similarly, functions like
buildPaths() now take a StorePathWithOutputs, rather than abusing Path
by adding a '!<outputs>' suffix.

Note that the StorePath type is implemented in Rust. This involves
some hackery to allow Rust values to be used directly in C++, via a
helper type whose destructor calls the Rust type's drop()
function. The main issue is the dynamic nature of C++ move semantics:
after we have moved a Rust value, we should not call the drop function
on the original value. So when we move a value, we set the original
value to bitwise zero, and the destructor only calls drop() if the
value is not bitwise zero. This should be sufficient for most types.

Also lots of minor cleanups to the C++ API to make it more modern
(e.g. using std::optional and std::string_view in some places).

Eelco Dolstra 98ef11677c EvalState::callFunction(): Make FunctionCallTrace use less stack space
The FunctionCallTrace object consumes a few hundred bytes of stack
space, even when tracing is disabled. This was causing stack overflows:

  $ nix-instantiate '<nixpkgs> -A texlive.combined.scheme-full --dry-run
  error: stack overflow (possible infinite recursion)

This is with the default stack size of 8 MiB.

Putting the object on the heap reduces stack usage to < 5 MiB.

The resolving of the symlinks is done via canonPath, which also strips
out "../" and "./". However after the canonicalisation the error message
pointing out that the path is not allowed prints the symlink target in
the error message.

Even if we'd suppress the message, symlink targets could still be leaked
if the symlink target doesn't exist (in this case the error is thrown in
canonPath).

So instead, we now do canonPath() without symlink resolving first before
even checking against the list of allowed paths and then later do the
symlink resolving and checking the allowed paths again.

The first call to canonPath() should get rid of all the "../" and "./",
so in theory the only way to leak a symlink if the attacker is able to
put a symlink in one of the paths allowed by restricted evaluation mode.

For the latter I don't think this is part of the threat model, because
if the attacker can write to that path, the attack vector is even
larger.

Don't scan for roots in dynamic libraries
This reduces the risk of object liveness misdetection. For example,
Glibc has an internal variable "mp_" that often points to a Boehm
object, keeping it alive unnecessarily. Since we don't store any
actual roots in global variables, we can just disable data segment
scanning.

With this, the max RSS doing 100 evaluations of

Add pure evaluation mode
In this mode, the following restrictions apply:

* The builtins currentTime, currentSystem and storePath throw an
  error.

* $NIX_PATH and -I are ignored.

* fetchGit and fetchMercurial require a revision hash.

* fetchurl and fetchTarball require a sha256 attribute.

* No file system access is allowed outside of the paths returned by
  fetch{Git,Mercurial,url,Tarball}. Thus 'nix build -f ./foo.nix' is
  not allowed.

Thus, the evaluation result is completely reproducible from the
command line arguments. E.g.

  nix build --pure-eval '(
    let
      nix = fetchGit { url = https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git; rev = "9c927de4b179a6dd210dd88d34bda8af4b575680"; };
      nixpkgs = fetchGit { url = https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git; ref = "release-17.09"; rev = "66b4de79e3841530e6d9c6baf98702aa1f7124e4"; };
    in (import (nix + "/release.nix") { inherit nix nixpkgs; }).build.x86_64-linux
  )'

The goal is to enable completely reproducible and traceable
evaluation. For example, a NixOS configuration could be fully
described by a single Git commit hash. 'nixos-rebuild' would do
something like

  nix build --pure-eval '(
    (import (fetchGit { url = file:///my-nixos-config; rev = "..."; })).system
  ')

where the Git repository /my-nixos-config would use further fetchGit
calls or Git externals to fetch Nixpkgs and whatever other
dependencies it has. Either way, the commit hash would uniquely
identify the NixOS configuration and allow it to reproduced.

Dan Peebles e7cb2847ab Explicitly model all settings and fail on unrecognized ones
Previously, the Settings class allowed other code to query for string
properties, which led to a proliferation of code all over the place making
up new options without any sort of central registry of valid options. This
commit pulls all those options back into the central Settings class and
removes the public get() methods, to discourage future abuses like that.

Furthermore, because we know the full set of options ahead of time, we
now fail loudly if someone enters an unrecognized option, thus preventing
subtle typos. With some template fun, we could probably also dump the full
set of options (with documentation, defaults, etc.) to the command line,
but I'm not doing that yet here.

Add support for passing structured data to builders
Previously, all derivation attributes had to be coerced into strings
so that they could be passed via the environment. This is lossy
(e.g. lists get flattened, necessitating configureFlags
vs. configureFlagsArray, of which the latter cannot be specified as an
attribute), doesn't support attribute sets at all, and has size
limitations (necessitating hacks like passAsFile).

This patch adds a new mode for passing attributes to builders, namely
encoded as a JSON file ".attrs.json" in the current directory of the
builder. This mode is activated via the special attribute

  __structuredAttrs = true;

(The idea is that one day we can set this in stdenv.mkDerivation.)

For example,

  stdenv.mkDerivation {
    __structuredAttrs = true;
    name = "foo";
    buildInputs = [ pkgs.hello pkgs.cowsay ];
    doCheck = true;
    hardening.format = false;
  }

results in a ".attrs.json" file containing (sans the indentation):

  {
    "buildInputs": [],
    "builder": "/nix/store/ygl61ycpr2vjqrx775l1r2mw1g2rb754-bash-4.3-p48/bin/bash",
    "configureFlags": [
      "--with-foo",
      "--with-bar=1 2"
    ],
    "doCheck": true,
    "hardening": {
      "format": false
    },
    "name": "foo",
    "nativeBuildInputs": [
      "/nix/store/10h6li26i7g6z3mdpvra09yyf10mmzdr-hello-2.10",
      "/nix/store/4jnvjin0r6wp6cv1hdm5jbkx3vinlcvk-cowsay-3.03"
    ],
    "propagatedBuildInputs": [],
    "propagatedNativeBuildInputs": [],
    "stdenv": "/nix/store/f3hw3p8armnzy6xhd4h8s7anfjrs15n2-stdenv",
    "system": "x86_64-linux"
  }

"passAsFile" is ignored in this mode because it's not needed - large
strings are included directly in the JSON representation.

It is up to the builder to do something with the JSON
representation. For example, in bash-based builders, lists/attrsets of
string values could be mapped to bash (associative) arrays.

Thus, -I / $NIX_PATH entries are now downloaded only when they are

warning (just like non-existant paths).

This does change the semantics of builtins.nixPath, which now returns
the original, rather than resulting path. E.g., before we had

  [ { path = "/nix/store/hgm3yxf1lrrwa3z14zpqaj5p9vs0qklk-nixexprs.tar.xz"; prefix = "nixpkgs"; } ... ]

but now

  [ { path = "https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-16.03/nixexprs.tar.xz"; prefix = "nixpkgs"; } ... ]

metadata to a function without callers needing to treat it specially.

Eelco Dolstra 6bb4c0b712 mkList: Scrub better
Clearing v.app.right was not enough, because the length field of a
list only takes 32 bits, so the most significant 32 bits of v.app.left
(a.k.a. v.thunk.env) would remain. This could cause Boehm GC to
interpret it as a valid pointer.

This change reduces maximum RSS for evaluating the ‘tested’ job in
nixos/release-small.nix from 1.33 GiB to 0.80 GiB, and runtime by
about 8%.

Eelco Dolstra c9f6232304 Correctly detect infinite recursion in function application
If we're evaluating some application ‘v = f x’, we can't store ‘f’
temporarily in ‘v’, because if ‘f x’ refers to ‘v’, it will get ‘f’
rather than an infinite recursion error.

Unfortunately, this breaks the tail call optimisation introduced in
c897bac549.

Fixes #217.

Shea Levy cd49fe4f9b Don't use any syntactic sugar for dynamic attrs
This doesn't change any functionality but moves some behavior out of the

Shea Levy 18fefacf7d Dynamic attrs
This adds new syntax for attribute names:

* attrs."${name}" => getAttr name attrs
* attrs ? "${name}" => isAttrs attrs && hasAttr attrs name
* attrs."${name}" or def => if attrs ? "${name}" then attrs."${name}" else def
* { "${name}" = value; } => listToAttrs [{ inherit name value; }]

Of course, it's a bit more complicated than that. The attribute chains
can be arbitrarily long and contain combinations of static and dynamic
parts (e.g. attrs."${foo}".bar."${baz}" or qux), which is relatively
straightforward for the getAttrs/hasAttrs cases but is more complex for
the listToAttrs case due to rules about duplicate attribute definitions.

For attribute sets with dynamic attribute names, duplicate static
attributes are detected at parse time while duplicate dynamic attributes
are detected when the attribute set is forced. So, for example, { a =
null; a.b = null; "${"c"}" = true; } will be a parse-time error, while
{ a = {}; "${"a"}".b = null; c = true; } will be an eval-time error
(technically that case could theoretically be detected at parse time,
but the general case would require full evaluation). Moreover, duplicate
dynamic attributes are not allowed even in cases where they would be
with static attributes ({ a.b.d = true; a.b.c = false; } is legal, but {
a."${"b"}".d = true; a."${"b"}".c = false; } is not). This restriction
might be relaxed in the future in cases where the static variant would
not be an error, but it is not obvious that that is desirable.

Finally, recursive attribute sets with dynamic attributes have the
static attributes in scope but not the dynamic ones. So rec { a = true;
"${"b"}" = a; } is equivalent to { a = true; b = true; } but rec {
"${"a"}" = true; b = a; } would be an error or use a from the
surrounding scope if it exists.

Note that the getAttr, getAttr or default, and hasAttr are all
implemented purely in the parser as syntactic sugar, while attribute
sets with dynamic attribute names required changes to the AST to be
implemented cleanly.

This is an alternative solution to and closes #167

Shea Levy 136f2f7046 Add the ExprBuiltin Expr type to the AST
Certain desugaring schemes may require the parser to use some builtin
function to do some of the work (e.g. currently `throw` is used to
lazily cause an error if a `<>`-style path is not in the search path)
Unfortunately, these names are not reserved keywords, so an expression
that uses such a syntactic sugar will not see the expected behavior
(see tests/lang/eval-okay-redefine-builtin.nix for an example).

This adds the ExprBuiltin AST type, which when evaluated uses the value
from the rootmost variable scope (which of course is initialized
internally and can't shadow any of the builtins).
