Shea Levy 1b3e704fb9 Merge branch 'patch-2' of git://github.com/wmertens/nix
install-nix-from-closure improvments
2016-04-12 07:33:04 -04:00
Eelco Dolstra 867967265b Remove manifest support
Manifests have been superseded by binary caches for years. This also
gets rid of nix-pull, nix-generate-patches and bsdiff/bspatch.

Wout Mertens af4fb6ef61 Bring nix-profile.sh in line with NixOS
Use the same logic as NixOS' profile and environment setup. Closes #414

Wout Mertens ef00999fb7 Remove information about nix-store --optimise 2016-04-10 21:55:26 +02:00
wmertens 4916d92092 Always verify nix store on install
Just wasted a couple hours chasing shadows because the nix store got
corrupted and there was no indication of that anywhere.

Since an install is one-time only, might as well verify.  Optimization
showed that the copied files aren't read-only; fixed that as well.

Also, use /bin/sh since there's a good chance that this script will be
run on systems without /bin/bash

Eelco Dolstra c4d22997f3 Add C++ functions for .narinfo processing / signing
This is currently only used by the Hydra queue runner rework, but like
eff5021eaa it presumably will be useful
for the C++ rewrite of nix-push and
download-from-binary-cache. (@shlevy)

Peter Simons bd42510e49 nix-profile.sh.in: quote use of $HOME in shell arguments
All other places in the script do this already, so let's be consistent.

Alex Cruice ad0dc41899 Check shell profile is writeable before modifying
The `set -e` at the top of the script causes the installation to fail to
complete if the shell profile is not writeable. Checking file existence
only is not enough.

Philip Potter 4f3cf06c97 Verify TLS certificate before downloading binaries
The --insecure flag to curl tells curl not to bother checking if the TLS
certificate presented by the server actually matches the hostname
requested, and actually is issued by a trusted CA chain.  This almost
entirely negates any benefit from using TLS in the first place.

This removes the --insecure flag to ensure we actually have a secure
connection to the intended hostname before downloading binaries.

Manually tested locally within a dev-shell; was able to download
binaries from https://cache.nixos.org without issue.

[Note: --insecure was only used for fetching NARs, whose integrity is
verified by Nix anyway using the hash from the .narinfo. But if we can
fetch the .narinfo without --insecure, we can also fetch the .nar, so
there is not much point to using --insecure. --Eelco]

Brian McKenna 9018deab6c Use shellwords for nix-shell shebang
Previously we can't have quoted arguments.

This now allows us to use things like `ghcWithPackages`

Eelco Dolstra c0d4173263 Set default binary-caches-parallel-connections to 25
Some benchmarking suggested this as a good value. Running

  $ benchmark -f ... -t 25 -- sh -c 'rm -f /nix/var/nix/binary-cache*; nix-store -r /nix/store/x5z8a2yvz8h6ccmhwrwrp9igg03575jg-nixos-15.09.git.5fd87e1M.drv --dry-run --option binary-caches-parallel-connections <N>'

gave the following mean elapsed times for these values of N:

N=10:  3.3541
N=20:  2.9320
N=25:  2.6690
N=30:  2.9417
N=50:  3.2021
N=100: 3.5718
N=150: 4.2079

Memory usage is also reduced (N=150 used 186 MB, N=25 only 68 MB).

Closes #708.

Utku Demir a49514a2e2 Also set CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST=0 when "verify-https-binary-caches" is false
This makes that option even more insecure, by also not checking the SSL host.

But without this parameter, one can still get SSL errors even when
"verify-https-binary-caches" is false, which is unexpected IMO.

Eelco Dolstra e012c126db Revert "add the manpath to the installer"
This reverts commit 76f985b92d. We
shouldn't mess with $MANPATH, because on some "man" implementations
(like NixOS'), the default value on $MANPATH is derived from $PATH. So
if you set $MANPATH, you lose the default locations.

Eelco Dolstra f19b4abfb2 Include NAR size in fingerprint computation
This is not strictly needed for integrity (since we already include
the NAR hash in the fingerprint) but it helps against endless data
attacks [1]. (However, this will also require
download-from-binary-cache.pl to bail out if it receives more than the
specified number of bytes.)

Jeff Ramnani d53735c823 Nix install script failed when "cd" printed to stdout.
In some cases the bash builtin command "cd" can print the variable $CWD
to stdout.  This caused the install script to fail while copying files
because the source path was wrong.

Fixes #476.

Eelco Dolstra f3a5930488 Sign a subset of the .narinfo
We only need to sign the store path, NAR hash and references (the
"fingerprint"). Everything else is irrelevant to security. For
instance, the compression algorithm or the hash of the compressed NAR
don't matter as long as the contents of the uncompressed NAR are
correct.

(Maybe we should include derivers in the fingerprint, but they're
broken and nobody cares about them. Also, it might be nice in the
future if .narinfos contained signatures from multiple independent
signers. But that's impossible if the deriver is included in the
fingerprint, since everybody will tend to have a different deriver for
the same store path.)

Also renamed the "Signature" field to "Sig" since the format changed
in an incompatible way.

Eelco Dolstra e0def5bc4b Use libsodium instead of OpenSSL for binary cache signing
Sodium's Ed25519 signatures are much shorter than OpenSSL's RSA
signatures. Public keys are also much shorter, so they're now
specified directly in the nix.conf option ‘binary-cache-public-keys’.

The new command ‘nix-store --generate-binary-cache-key’ generates and
prints a public and secret key.
