#
# OUTLINE:
#
# The top-level meson.build file (this file) handles general logic for build options,
# generation of config.h (which is put in the build directory, not the source root
# like the previous, autoconf-based build system did), the mechanism for header
# generation, and the few global C++ compiler arguments that are added to all targets in Lix.
#
# src/meson.build coordinates each of Lix's subcomponents (the lib dirs in ./src),
# which each have their own meson.build. Lix's components depend on each other,
# so each of `src/lib{util,store,fetchers,expr,main,cmd}/meson.build` rely on variables
# set in earlier `meson.build` files. Each of these also defines the install targets for
# their headers.
#
# src/meson.build also collects the miscellaneous source files that are in further subdirectories
# that become part of the final Nix command (things like `src/nix-build/*.cc`).
#
# Finally, src/nix/meson.build defines the Nix command itself, relying on all prior meson files.
#
# libstore, libexpr, and libfetchers have some special handling to make static builds work.
# Their use static constructors for dynamic registration of primops, store backends, etc
# gets borked during static link. We can't simply wholesale apply `link_whole :` either,
# because these libraries get linked multiple times since Lix's components are transitively
# dependent. So instead, each of those libraries have two dependency objects:
# liblix{store,expr,fetchers,util} and liblix{store,expr,fetchers,util}_mstatic ("maybe static").
# The _mstatic versions should be used in the `dependencies :` arguments to ALL EXECUTABLES
# but executables ONLY. When we are not building statically (default_library != 'static'),
# they are equivalent. When we are building statically, the _mstatic version will be
# `link_whole :` rather than `link_with :`.
# FIXME: This hack should be removed when https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/359
# is fixed.
#
# Unit tests are setup in tests/unit/meson.build, under the test suite "check".
#
# Functional tests are a bit more complicated. Generally they're defined in
# tests/functional/meson.build, and rely on helper scripts meson/setup-functional-tests.py
# and meson/run-test.py. Scattered around also are configure_file() invocations, which must
# be placed in specific directories' meson.build files to create the right directory tree
# in the build directory.

[resubmit] flake: update nixpkgs pin 23.11->24.05 (+ boehmgc compat changes) -- message from cl/1418 -- The boehmgc changes are bundled into this commit because doing otherwise would require an annoying dance of "adding compatibility for < 8.2.6 and >= 8.2.6" then updating the pin then removing the (now unneeded) compatibility. It doesn't seem worth the trouble to me given the low complexity of said changes. Rebased coroutine-sp-fallback.diff patch taken from https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/317227 -- jade resubmit changes -- This is a resubmission of https://gerrit.lix.systems/c/lix/+/1418, which was reverted in https://gerrit.lix.systems/c/lix/+/1432 for breaking CI evaluation without being detected. I have run `nix flake check -Lv` on this one before submission and it passes on my machine and crucially without eval errors, so the CI result should be accurate. It seems like someone renamed forbiddenDependenciesRegex to forbiddenDependenciesRegexes in nixpkgs and also changed the type incompatibly. That's pretty silly, but at least it's just an eval error. Also, `xonsh` regressed the availability of `xonsh-unwrapped`, but it was fixed by us in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/317636, which is now in our channel, so we update nixpkgs compared to the original iteration of this to simply get that. We originally had a regression related to some reorganization of the nixpkgs lib test suite in which there was broken parameter passing. This, too, we got quickfixed in nixpkgs, so we don't need any changes for it: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/317772 Related: https://gerrit.lix.systems/c/lix/+/1428 Fixes: https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/385 Change-Id: I26d41ea826fec900ebcad0f82a727feb6bcd28f3

libstore/local-derivation-goal: prohibit creating setuid/setgid binaries With Linux kernel >=6.6 & glibc 2.39 a `fchmodat2(2)` is available that isn't filtered away by the libseccomp sandbox. Being able to use this to bypass that restriction has surprising results for some builds such as lxc[1]: > With kernel ≥6.6 and glibc 2.39, lxc's install phase uses fchmodat2, > which slips through https://github.com/NixOS/nix/blob/9b88e5284608116b7db0dbd3d5dd7a33b90d52d7/src/libstore/build/local-derivation-goal.cc#L1650-L1663. > The fixupPhase then uses fchmodat, which fails. > With older kernel or glibc, setting the suid bit fails in the > install phase, which is not treated as fatal, and then the > fixup phase does not try to set it again. Please note that there are still ways to bypass this sandbox[2] and this is mostly a fix for the breaking builds. This change works by creating a syscall filter for the `fchmodat2` syscall (number 452 on most systems). The problem is that glibc 2.39 is needed to have the correct syscall number available via `__NR_fchmodat2` / `__SNR_fchmodat2`, but this flake is still on nixpkgs 23.11. To have this change everywhere and not dependent on the glibc this package is built against, I added a header "fchmodat2-compat.hh" that sets the syscall number based on the architecture. On most platforms its 452 according to glibc with a few exceptions: $ rg --pcre2 'define __NR_fchmodat2 (?!452)' sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/x32/arch-syscall.h 58:#define __NR_fchmodat2 1073742276 sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips64/n32/arch-syscall.h 67:#define __NR_fchmodat2 6452 sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips64/n64/arch-syscall.h 62:#define __NR_fchmodat2 5452 sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips32/arch-syscall.h 70:#define __NR_fchmodat2 4452 sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/arch-syscall.h 59:#define __NR_fchmodat2 562 I added a small regression-test to the setuid integration-test that attempts to set the suid bit on a file using the fchmodat2 syscall. I confirmed that the test fails without the change in local-derivation-goal. Additionally, we require libseccomp 2.5.5 or greater now: as it turns out, libseccomp maintains an internal syscall table and validates each rule against it. This means that when using libseccomp 2.5.4 or older, one may pass `452` as syscall number against it, but since it doesn't exist in the internal structure, `libseccomp` will refuse to create a filter for that. This happens with nixpkgs-23.11, i.e. on stable NixOS and when building Lix against the project's flake. To work around that * a backport of libseccomp 2.5.5 on upstream nixpkgs has been scheduled[3]. * the package now uses libseccomp 2.5.5 on its own already. This is to provide a quick fix since the correct fix for 23.11 is still a staging cycle away. We still need the compat header though since `SCMP_SYS(fchmodat2)` internally transforms this into `__SNR_fchmodat2` which points to `__NR_fchmodat2` from glibc 2.39, so it wouldn't build on glibc 2.38. The updated syscall table from libseccomp 2.5.5 is NOT used for that step, but used later, so we need both, our compat header and their syscall table 🤷 Relevant PRs in CppNix: * https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/10591 * https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/10501 [1] https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/300635#issuecomment-2031073804 [2] https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/300635#issuecomment-2030844251 [3] https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/306070 (cherry picked from commit ba6804518772e6afb403dd55478365d4b863c854) Change-Id: I6921ab5a363188c6bff617750d00bb517276b7fe

libexpr: rewrite the parser with pegtl instead of flex/bison this gives about 20% performance improvements on pure parsing. obviously it will be less on full eval, but depending on how much parsing is to be done (e.g. including hackage-packages.nix or not) it's more like 4%-10%. this has been tested (with thousands of core hours of fuzzing) to ensure that the ASTs produced by the new parser are exactly the same as the old one would have produced. error messages will change (sometimes by a lot) and are not yet perfect, but we would rather leave this as is for later. test results for running only the parser (excluding the variable binding code) in a tight loop with inputs and parameters as given are promising: - 40% faster on lix's package.nix at 10000 iterations - 1.3% faster on nixpkgs all-packages.nix at 1000 iterations - equivalent on all of nixpkgs concatenated at 100 iterations (excluding invalid files, each file surrounded with parens) more realistic benchmarks are somewhere in between the extremes, parsing once again getting the largest uplift. other realistic workloads improve by a few percentage points as well, notably system builds are 4% faster.
