2010-03-11 20:56:25 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès 05e15049a5 Show the build user's group in /etc/group in chroots.

  /etc/group showing the build user's group.
2010-03-11 14:47:04 +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

2010-03-11 10:21:23 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 05fbf61f0e * nix-prefetch-url depends on sed (see
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/311170).
2010-03-05 18:26:47 +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 7db2831d3a * Use ATerm 2.5. 2010-02-23 16:17:21 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 5ccb6f64f4 * Run ATerm's `make check'. 2010-02-23 12:26:35 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 68e55cd9da * Since Hydra now escapes +', =' and `?' to %NN in URIs,
nix-prefetch-url should unescape them, because `%' is not a valid
  character in store path names.
2010-02-16 00:10:39 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3b3e1025c3 * Typo. Reported by Peter Koppstein. 2010-02-12 10:50:30 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès 20186a4079 Don't rely on `PATH_MAX' on GNU. 2010-02-10 15:55:50 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès d0bf4adb1f Add `.gitignore'. 2010-02-10 15:55:46 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e08dbff9a8 * Fix a broken link (reported by Bjorn Buckwalter). 2010-02-05 10:17:13 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e1e91a3731 * Bump. 2010-02-04 15:46:04 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 817f4f7908 * Grmbl. Timing-sensitive tests are evil. 2010-02-04 14:43:43 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f36b7e7579 2010-02-04 14:00:47 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 719cebcac2 * "Fix" incorrect help message. 2010-02-04 09:38:09 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 443673620d * Don't use ssh's -f flag since it leads to lots of lingering ssh
processes.
2010-02-04 02:38:40 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 7ec5a65925 * Doh! The scope of $slotLock should extend to the end of the script,
because otherwise the lock will be released at the end of the while
  loop.
2010-02-04 02:18:29 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c9b2d80bcd * Typo. 2010-02-04 02:05:34 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3cfe65e516 * Doh! Calling `system' in an END block causes the exit status in $?
to be changed to 0.
2010-02-04 02:05:22 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e51a276907 * Remove the `cat' calls when not using --gzip. 2010-02-04 01:39:23 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 408913bbaf * Revert r19796 for now. 2010-02-04 00:12:57 +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 c45de33c67 * Respect @sysconfdir@. 2010-02-03 21:13:37 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d0c32dc135 * In the build hook, if connecting to a machine fails, try the other
machines of the right type (if available).  This makes the build
  farm more robust to failures.
2010-02-03 20:35:37 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f56a039775 * Use SSH connection sharing in the remote build script.
* Removed the Cygwin password hack since the problem is apparently
  fixed in Visual Studio.
2010-02-03 20:12:18 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra bc1e478db1 * nix-copy-closure: start only one SSH connection to the server, or
recycle an already existing connection (using  OpenSSH's connection
  sharing feature).
2010-02-03 15:34:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4d8a85b8f5 * Updated the release notes. 2010-02-03 11:00:35 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3ce5f07793 * Ugly hack to make `nix-channel' work on Cygwin. 2010-02-02 17:01:16 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e839802720 * Don't do a chdir to $tmpDir. It's not necessary, and Windows doesn't
support deleting the current directory.
2010-02-02 15:29:18 +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 50e34891f0 * Disable gzip compression in build-remote.pl because it puts too much
load on the Hydra build farm (where it's unnecessary anyway because
  it has a fast connection to the build machines).  In any case,
  compression can be enabled by using the `-C' option to ssh.
2010-01-25 16:14:45 +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 d8a5dc02fc * Build on Fedora 12. 2009-12-10 13:14:22 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3a78af1e24 * Release notes. 2009-12-09 21:02:24 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 7ca9972636 * When doing a nix-pull, remove old manifests downloaded from the same
URL.  This prevents lots of old cruft accumulating in
  /nix/var/nix/manifests.
