Eelco Dolstra 5f18cd2e84 Make "${./path} ..." evaluate to a string, not a path
Wacky string coercion semantics caused expressions like

  exec = "${./my-script} params...";

to evaluate to a path (‘/path/my-script params’), because
anti-quotations are desuged to string concatenation:

  exec = ./my-script + " params...";

By constrast, adding a space at the start would yield a string as
expected:

  exec = " ${./my-script} params...";

Now the first example also evaluates to a string.

Eelco Dolstra 536c85ea49 Store build logs in /nix/var/log/nix/drvs/<XX>
...where <XX> is the first two characters of the derivation.
Otherwise /nix/var/log/nix/drvs may become so large that we run into
all sorts of weird filesystem limits/inefficiences.  For instance,
ext3/ext4 filesystems will barf with "ext4_dx_add_entry:1551:
Directory index full!" once you hit a few million files.

Eelco Dolstra def5160b61 Clear any immutable bits in the Nix store
Doing this once makes subsequent operations like garbage collecting
more efficient since we don't have to call makeMutable() first.

Eelco Dolstra 68dcbb187e download-from-binary-cache: Use the channels of the calling user rather than root
This should make live easier for single-user (non-daemon)
installations.  Note that when the daemon is used, the "calling user"
is root so we're not using any untrusted caches.

Eelco Dolstra 2754a07ead nix-store -q --roots: Respect the gc-keep-outputs/gc-keep-derivations settings
So if a path is not garbage solely because it's reachable from a root
due to the gc-keep-outputs or gc-keep-derivations settings, ‘nix-store
-q --roots’ now shows that root.

Eelco Dolstra 06f62defe6 Yet another rewrite of the garbage collector
But this time it's *obviously* correct!  No more segfaults due to
infinite recursions for sure, etc.

Also, move directories to /nix/store/trash instead of renaming them to
/nix/store/bla-gc-<pid>.  Then we can just delete /nix/store/trash at
the end.

Eelco Dolstra 9c29a2ed35 Give a better error message if writeFile fails due to permission issues 2012-12-20 12:22:13 +01:00
Eelco Dolstra e775d4d84f If gc-keep-derivations is set, only keep the actual deriver
This prevents zillions of derivations from being kept, and fixes an
infinite recursion in the garbage collector (due to an obscure cycle
that can occur with fixed-output derivations).

Eelco Dolstra fbf0b2fa45 Kill the build hook rather than shutting it down cleanly
Waiting for the hook to shut down cleanly sometimes seems to lead to
hangs.
