Eelco Dolstra 4dee289550 * In environments, store pointers to values rather than values. This 
improves GC effectiveness a bit more (because a live value doesn't
  keep other values in the environment plus the parent environments
  alive), and removes the need for copy nodes.
 2010-10-22 15:51:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 41c45a9b31 * Store Value nodes outside of attribute sets. I.e., Attr now stores 
a pointer to a Value, rather than the Value directly.  This improves
  the effectiveness of garbage collection a lot: if the Value is
  stored inside the set directly, then any live pointer to the Value
  causes all other attributes in the set to be live as well.
 2010-10-22 14:47:42 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 64c3325b0b * Make building against the Boehm GC a configure option. 2010-10-22 13:39:15 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 76feaf016a * Keep some more stats. 2010-10-20 15:48:00 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e879a0371b * Use the Boehm garbage collector to reclaim unused memory in the Nix 
expression evaluator.
 2010-10-20 11:38:30 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 64fd29855a * Wrap deleteFromStore() in a transaction. Otherwise there might be a 
race with other processes that add new referrers to a path,
  resulting in the garbage collector crashing with "foreign key
  constraint failed".  (Nix/4)
* Make --gc --print-dead etc. interruptible.
 2010-10-14 15:55:51 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 705868a8a9 * Make sure that config.h is included before the system headers, 
because it defines _FILE_OFFSET_BITS.  Without this, on 
  OpenSolaris the system headers define it to be 32, and then 
  the 32-bit stat() ends up being called with a 64-bit "struct 
  stat", or vice versa.

  This also ensures that we get 64-bit file sizes everywhere.

* Remove the redundant call to stat() in parseExprFromFile().
  The file cannot be a symlink because that's the exit condition
  of the loop before.
 2010-10-04 17:55:38 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 95f4f2cf61 * If std::tr1::unordered_set is unavailable, use std::set. 2010-10-04 16:16:19 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 71dfe4b90b * Sync with the trunk. 2010-10-04 11:44:47 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 450837bcc8 * In printMsg(), ignore failing writes to stderr if we're in an 
exception handler, otherwise throw an exception.  We need to ignore
  write errors in exception handlers to ensure that cleanup code runs
  to completion if the other side of stderr has been closed
  unexpectedly.
 2010-10-04 11:23:07 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4aa9245083 * Hack needed for GCC 4.3.2 on OpenSolaris. 2010-10-04 10:51:16 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 923736df38 * Doh. Remove debug message. 2010-09-14 12:47:19 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e4907411c2 * Only do "pragma journal_mode = ..." if the current journal mode 
differs from the desired mode.  There is an open SQLite ticket
  `Executing "PRAGMA journal_mode" may delete journal file while it is
  in use.'
 2010-09-01 11:36:22 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra bf0dde9597 * Always print hook output on stderr, even if --no-build-output is 
set.
* In the build hook, print a trace message to allow Hydra to pick up
  the name of the remote machine used for the build.
 2010-08-31 12:36:24 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e2e168f7c2 `nix-store --verify' improvements: 
* If a path has disappeared, check its referrers first, and don't try
  to invalidate paths that have valid referrers.  Otherwise we get a
  foreign key constraint violation.
* Read the whole Nix store directory instead of statting each valid
  path, which is slower.
* Acquire the global GC lock.
 2010-08-31 11:47:31 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 80e722278c * When using the build hook, distinguish between the stderr of the 
hook script proper, and the stdout/stderr of the builder.  Only the
  latter should be saved in /nix/var/log/nix/drvs.
* Allow the verbosity to be set through an option.
* Added a flag --quiet to lower the verbosity level.
 2010-08-30 14:53:03 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 20acd43c25 * Disable the GC reachability check for now (when creating new roots), 
as it's hopelessly inefficient.
 2010-08-30 14:11:57 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 766f708418 * Experimental feature: allow a derivation to tell the build hook that 
it requires a certain feature on the build machine, e.g.

    requiredSystemFeatures = [ "kvm" ];

  We need this in Hydra to make sure that builds that require KVM
  support are forwarded to machines that have KVM support.  Probably
  this should also be enforced for local builds.
 2010-08-27 13:18:13 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra df50916e46 * Oops - "null" was displayed as "true". 2010-08-27 12:10:56 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e437b08250 * Made the build hook mechanism more efficient. Rather than starting 
the hook every time we want to ask whether we can run a remote build
  (which can be very often), we now reuse a hook process for answering
  those queries until it accepts a build.  So if there are N
  derivations to be built, at most N hooks will be started.
 2010-08-25 20:44:28 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 034f608e00 * Don't complain if the stored hash of a path is zero (unknown). 2010-08-24 14:25:33 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f58f51f380 * Handle the unlikely case where a derivation has no dependencies at 
all.
 2010-08-24 11:45:44 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 955d11aae7 * Sync with the trunk. 2010-08-24 09:56:28 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 6846ed8b44 * Make --cores work when building through the Nix daemon. 2010-08-12 09:21:50 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 587dc8aa00 * Sync with the trunk. 2010-08-04 17:48:29 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra fd9c77dfc7 * Use SQLite 3.7.0's write-ahead logging (WAL mode). This is a lot 
faster than the old mode when fsyncs are enabled, because it only
  performs an fsync() when doing a checkpoint, rather than at every
  commit.  Some timings for doing a "nix-instantiate /etc/nixos/nixos
  -A system" after modifying the stdenv setup script:

    42.5s - SQLite 3.6.23 with truncate mode and fsync
     3.4s - SQLite 3.6.23 with truncate mode and no fsync
    32.1s - SQLite 3.7.0 with truncate mode and fsync
    16.8s - SQLite 3.7.0 with WAL mode and fsync, auto-checkpoint
            every 1000 pages
     8.3s - SQLite 3.7.0 with WAL mode and fsync, auto-checkpoint
            every 8192 pages
     1.7s - SQLite 3.7.0 with WAL mode and no fsync

  The default is now to use WAL mode with fsyncs.  Because WAL doesn't
  work on remote filesystems such as NFS (as it uses shared memory),
  truncate mode can be re-enabled by setting the "use-sqlite-wal"
  option to false.
 2010-08-04 17:35:59 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 750be19ae8 * Remove "auto" and "guess" as synonyms for 0 in the handling of 
build-cores and --cores.  They're superfluous and just complicate
  the parsing.
 2010-08-04 12:23:59 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 7f893b7a43 * Allow derivations to hint that they should not be built remotely 
using the build hook mechanism, by setting the derivation attribute
  "preferLocalBuild" to true.  This has a few use cases:

  - The user environment builder.  Since it just creates a bunch of
    symlinks without much computation, there is no reason to do it
    remotely.  In fact, doing it remotely requires the entire closure
    of the user environment to be copied to the remote machine, which
    is extremely wasteful.

  - `fetchurl'.  Performing the download on a remote machine and then
    copying it to the local machine involves twice as much network
    traffic as performing the download locally, and doesn't save any
    CPU cycles on the local machine.
 2010-08-04 12:13:58 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 315d8fbd75 * Set the default system filter to "*". This ensures that (for 
instance) "nix-env -i wine" works on x86_64-linux, even though Wine
  is built on i686-linux.  In the event that there are multiple
  matching derivations, prefer those built for the current system.
 2010-08-04 09:32:42 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 6d6200f37a * Optimisation in the // operator: if one of the sets is empty, return 
the other set.
 2010-08-02 16:31:05 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 7af6a2fd71 * intersectAttrs: optimise for the case where the second set is larger 
than the first set.  (That's usually the case with callPackage.)
 2010-08-02 11:54:44 +00:00
Peter Simons 7e043d28a6 src/bsdiff-4.3/Makefile.am: include the 'compat-include' directory in distribution tarballs 2010-07-15 14:35:20 +00:00
Peter Simons af09fe12dd Fix build of bsdiff-4.3 on machines that don't have <err.h>, such as Solaris. 2010-06-24 17:51:31 +00:00
Peter Simons bcec46057c src/libutil/util.cc: include <limit.h> to ensure that PATH_MAX is defined 2010-06-24 17:51:13 +00:00
Peter Simons a17071fef1 Include <cstring> to ensure that strcpy(), strlen(), and memset() are declared. 
An "using namespace std" was added locally in those functions that refer to
names from <cstring>. That is not pretty, but it's a very portable solution,
because strcpy() and friends will be found in both the 'std' and in the global
namespace.
 2010-06-24 17:51:04 +00:00
Peter Simons 8b7f8b56f1 Added support for passing an (impure) NIX_BUILD_CORES variable to build expressions. 
This patch adds the configuration file variable "build-cores" and the
command line argument "--cores". These settings specify the number of
CPU cores to utilize for parallel building within a job, i.e. by passing
an appropriate "-j" flag to GNU Make. The default value is 1, which
means that parallel building is *disabled*. If the number of build cores
is specified as 0 (synonymously: "guess" or "auto"), then the actual
value is supposed to be auto-detected by builders at run-time, i.e by
calling the nproc(1) utility from coreutils.

The environment variable $NIX_BUILD_CORES is available to builders, but
the contents of that variable does *not* influence the hash that goes
into the $out store path, i.e. the number of build cores to be utilized
can be changed at will without requiring any re-builds.
 2010-06-23 14:34:08 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3e5e0faf9c * Okay, putting a lock on the temporary directory used by importPath() 
doesn't work because the garbage collector doesn't actually look at
  locks.  So r22253 was stupid.  Use addTempRoot() instead.  Also,
  locking the temporary directory in exportPath() was silly because it
  isn't even in the store.
 2010-06-21 11:08:09 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra bf87cc44b4 * Sync with the trunk. 2010-06-21 07:55:38 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra b57189174f * In importPath() and exportPath(), lock the temporary directory to 
prevent it from being deleted by the garbage collector.
 2010-06-14 08:34:48 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f16fe2af8d * builtins.toXML: propagate the string context. This is a regression 
from the old ATerm-based evaluator.
 2010-06-10 10:29:50 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d1f6c0cbe3 * Replacing ValidPath rows doesn't work because it causes a constraint 
violation of the Refs table.  So don't do that.
 2010-06-08 13:38:28 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 07ca66cf24 * Applied a patch from David Brown to prevent `nix-store --optimise' 
from failing on rename() on BtrFS.
 2010-06-04 13:56:11 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 1ab67cf437 2010-06-02 09:43:04 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 89865da76d * Turn build errors during evaluation into EvalErrors. 2010-06-01 11:19:32 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra a443c7573b * Hack to allow derivations to disable chroot builds by setting the 
attribute "__noChroot = true" (requested by Rob).
 2010-06-01 10:01:14 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès 8bcdd36f10 Add XML output to `nix-store'. 
* src/nix-store/Makefile.am (nix_store_SOURCES): Add `xmlgraph.cc' and
  `xmlgraph.hh'.

* src/nix-store/help.txt (Operations): Document `--xml'.

* src/nix-store/nix-store.cc (opQuery): Handle `--xml'.

* src/nix-store/xmlgraph.cc, src/nix-store/xmlgraph.hh: New files.
 2010-05-31 16:36:24 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès da52f8bea0 Comment out dead code in `nix-store'. 
* src/nix-store/dotgraph.cc (pathLabel): Move within #if 0 section.
 2010-05-31 16:36:20 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 7343e6c8ae * Remove an accidentally committed debug statement. 2010-05-30 20:29:56 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra b92a2e5cc2 * Sync with the trunk. 2010-05-20 12:36:03 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 93cd5a4a13 * The << operator on values should be const. 2010-05-18 10:36:37 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 32539e41d5 * Sync with trunk. 2010-05-16 17:16:00 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra b2235d81d1 * Restore the __overrides feature that was lost somewhere in the 
fast-eval branch.
 2010-05-15 08:10:12 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra aa45027818 * Sync with the trunk. 2010-05-12 22:13:09 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra bd25ac2260 * Print attributes in sorted order. 2010-05-12 12:15:49 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 81a4b4e49b * Implemented tryEval, the last missing primop in the fast-eval 
branch.  Also added a test for tryEval.
 2010-05-12 11:23:44 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 1a8eb6e3ec 2010-05-07 15:26:33 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 83dfa89870 * Sync with the trunk. 2010-05-07 14:46:47 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 01e58adce0 * Store position info for inherited attributes. 2010-05-07 12:43:57 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 83d7b89660 * Updated addErrorContext. 2010-05-07 12:33:14 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e2d5e40f4f * Keep track of the source positions of attributes. 2010-05-07 12:11:05 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 84ce7ac76f * Store attribute positions in the AST and report duplicate attribute 
errors with position info.
* For all positions, use the position of the first character of the
  first token, rather than the last character of the first token plus
  one.
 2010-05-06 16:46:48 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra a0e3b84fac * Revert r15436. This was a workaround for a bug in btrfs which seems 
to have been fixed now.
 2010-05-04 12:42:58 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f92c9a0ac5 * Allow unprivileged users to do `nix-store --clear-failed-paths' and 
`nix-store --query-failed-paths'.
 2010-05-04 10:45:10 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c82782f9a5 2010-04-27 09:05:11 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ef337f7089 2010-04-26 12:58:12 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 6199f9b93e * Added a command `nix-store --clear-failed-paths <PATHS>' to clear 
the "failed" status of the given store paths.  The special value `*'
  clears all failed paths.
 2010-04-26 12:56:42 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 2398af13c5 * Add an command `nix-store --query-failed-paths' to list the cached 
failed paths (when using the `build-cache-failure' option).
 2010-04-26 12:43:42 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 2be6118f4c * Don't need the test program anymore. 2010-04-23 09:09:32 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 0bc468f195 * Simplify the implementation of `with'. This gives a 7% speedup in 
evaluating the NixOS system configuration.
 2010-04-22 15:08:09 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ebade9ff8b * Check for duplicate attribute names / function arguments. `make 
check' now succeeds :-)
* An attribute set such as `{ foo = { enable = true; };
  foo.port = 23; }' now parses.  It was previously rejected, but I'm
  too lazy to implement the check.  (The only reason to reject it is
  that the reverse, `{ foo.port = 23; foo = { enable = true; }; }', is
  rejected, which is kind of ugly.)
 2010-04-22 11:02:24 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 2d7636529f * String equality tests should take the context into account. All the 
evaluation test cases now succeed.
 2010-04-22 09:54:11 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 6bbfe95e30 * Don't use an ostringstream in unparseDerivation(), because it's 
slow.  A `nix-env -qa --drv-path \*' on Nixpkgs was spending 40% of
  its time in unparseDerivation() because of this (now 11%).
 2010-04-21 19:25:50 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 6f0f16497a * Fix the interpretation of ''\<character> in indented strings. 2010-04-21 16:18:27 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 0777448ca6 * Fixed builtins.genericClosure. 2010-04-21 15:57:11 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra fe2d869e04 * Store user environment manifests as a Nix expression in 
$out/manifest.nix rather than as an ATerm.

  (Hm, I thought I committed this two days ago...)
 2010-04-21 15:08:58 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d66ea83a76 * Sync with the trunk. 2010-04-20 09:20:29 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f3b8833a48 * Drop the dependency on the ATerm library. 2010-04-19 14:51:58 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra efc7a579e8 * Don't use the ATerm library for parsing/printing .drv files. 2010-04-19 13:46:58 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 55b5ddd3ca * Added parsing of manifests in ATerm format. 2010-04-19 12:10:04 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra b7ff69eb7c * Refactoring: move the user environment stuff into its own module. 2010-04-19 10:47:56 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 5c31995bb8 * Updated some more primops. 2010-04-16 15:13:47 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 8bb0210fea * _combineChannels shouldn't be an integer. 2010-04-16 14:07:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 8ca4a001cb * Improve sharing a bit. 2010-04-16 14:03:26 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 497e4ad126 * Remove some redundant tests. 2010-04-16 13:51:01 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 02c1dac909 * In an nested with' where the inner with is a variable (with ...; 
with someVar; ...'), the contents of the variable would be
  clobbered.  (The attributes in the outer `with' were added to the
  variable.)
 2010-04-16 13:44:02 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 04c4bd3624 * Store lists as lists of pointers to values rather than as lists of 
values.  This improves sharing and gives another speed up.
  Evaluation of the NixOS system attribute is now almost 7 times
  faster than the old evaluator.
 2010-04-15 00:37:36 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e41b5828db * Better stats. 2010-04-14 23:48:46 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d39d3c6264 * Implemented inherit. 2010-04-14 23:25:05 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 267dc693d2 * Fix builtins. 2010-04-14 22:59:39 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 81de12bc8f * Refactoring: move variable uses to a separate class. 2010-04-14 15:14:23 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 110d155778 * Implemented withs. 2010-04-14 15:01:04 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 9985230c00 * After parsing, compute level/displacement pairs for each variable 
use site, allowing environments to be stores as vectors of values
  rather than maps.  This should speed up evaluation and reduce the
  number of allocations.
 2010-04-14 14:42:32 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 816dd3f061 * Remove more obsolete code. 2010-04-14 12:49:05 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 011b5da0f4 * Get nix-env to compile again. 2010-04-14 09:39:06 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 85d13c8f93 * Change the semantics of "with" so that inner "withs" take 
precedence, i.e. `with {x=1;}; with {x=2;}; x' evaluates to 2'.
  This has a simpler implementation and seems more natural.  There
  doesn't seem to be any code in Nixpkgs or NixOS that relies on the
  old behaviour.
 2010-04-14 08:37:08 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 816f9c0f6f * Use std::tr1::unordered_set instead of std::set for the symbol 
table.  This gives a 10% speed increase on `nix-instantiate
  /etc/nixos/nixos -A system --readonly-mode'.
 2010-04-13 14:34:11 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 7d47498b5e * Evaluate lets directly (i.e. without desugaring to `rec { attrs...; 
<let-body> = e; }.<let-body>).  This prevents the unnecessary
  allocation of an attribute set.
 2010-04-13 13:42:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ac1e8f40d4 * Use a symbol table to represent identifiers and attribute names 
efficiently.  The symbol table ensures that there is only one copy
  of each symbol, thus allowing symbols to be compared efficiently
  using a pointer equality test.
 2010-04-13 12:25:42 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 10e8b1fd15 * Finished the ATerm-less parser. 2010-04-12 23:33:23 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 0d272fca79 * Remove some obsolete functions. 2010-04-12 23:31:47 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d4f0b0fc6c * Indented strings. 2010-04-12 22:03:27 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra a60317f20f * More missing constructs. 2010-04-12 21:21:24 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4d6ad5be17 * Don't use ATerms for the abstract syntax trees anymore. Not 
finished yet.
 2010-04-12 18:30:11 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ed711f73bc * Don't use ATerms to represent integers in the lexer. 2010-04-12 10:38:18 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra db90b88e65 * Hack to support builderDefs expressions. 2010-04-12 09:50:20 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4e49002576 * Doh. 2010-04-12 09:45:00 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c3f228f296 2010-04-12 09:14:27 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès aac5fcfbb5 Re-add drvPath' and outPath' attributes to <derivation> XML nodes. 
This fixes a regression introduced in r20882 ("Add source location
information to the XML output.").

* src/libexpr/expr-to-xml.cc (nix::printTermAsXML): Dereference the
  attribute RHS from "drvPath" and "outPath".
 2010-04-09 21:30:55 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f3dc7ab877 * Keep more statistics about stack space usage. 
* Reduce stack space usage.
 2010-04-09 12:00:49 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra b7b3dd55f9 * Remove a lot of dead code. 2010-04-08 11:41:19 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 7e048eddf5 * Fix blackholing. If evaluation fails due to an assertion failure, 
then the blackhole has to be removed to ensure that repeated
  evaluation of the same value gives an assertion failure again rather
  than an "infinite recursion" error.
 2010-04-08 11:25:14 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra af2a372bb0 * Update autoCallFunction() and findAlongAttrPath(). 2010-04-07 15:47:06 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 9a64454faa * expr-to-xml -> value-to-xml. 2010-04-07 13:59:45 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra fc92244ba8 * Implemented the primops necessary for generating the NixOS manual. 2010-04-07 13:55:46 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra a353aef0b1 * In eval(), don't use the target value `v' as a temporary. 
Overwriting `v' breaks when the expression evaluation to an
  assertion failure or throw.
 2010-04-06 14:15:29 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra a5ece7d016 * Removed the `~' operator. 2010-04-01 16:59:07 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c172274e17 * Quick hack to make coerceToString work more or less correctly on 
nested lists.  `nix-instantiate' can now evaluate the NixOS system
  derivation attribute correctly (in 2.1s on my laptop vs. 6.2s for
  the trunk).
 2010-04-01 14:35:03 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 7b851915bf * Improve sharing. 2010-04-01 12:04:57 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 95cc417d76 * Functions are incomparable. 2010-04-01 10:55:36 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 71f026292b * Make `derivation' lazy again for performance. It also turns out 
that there are some places in Nixpkgs (php_configurable /
  composableDerivation, it seems) that call `derivation' with
  incorrect arguments (namely, the `name' attribute missing) but get
  away with it because of laziness.
 2010-04-01 09:55:57 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra dc31305b38 * Fixed the trace primop and path comparison. 
* Removed exprToString and stringToExpr because there is no ATerm
  representation to work on anymore (and exposing the internals of the
  evaluator like this is not a good idea anyway).
 2010-03-31 20:09:20 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 979f163615 * Handle string contexts. `nix-instantiate' can now correctly compute 
the `firefoxWrapper' attribute in Nixpkgs, and it's about 3 times
  faster than the trunk :-)
 2010-03-31 19:52:29 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d8cd3115d8 * Get nix-env to compile. 2010-03-31 19:12:08 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 55e207b2dc * Cache parse trees to prevent repeated parsing of imported Nix 
expressions.
 2010-03-31 16:14:32 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3d94be61ea * Implemented derivations. 2010-03-31 15:38:03 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès 09381cccff Make source location info in the XML output optional. 
* src/libexpr/expr-to-xml.cc (nix::showAttrs): Add `location'
  parameter.  Provide location XML attributes when it's true.  Update
  callers.
  (nix::printTermAsXML): Likewise.

* src/libexpr/expr-to-xml.hh (nix::printTermAsXML): Update prototype;
  have `location' default to `false'.

* src/nix-instantiate/nix-instantiate.cc (printResult, processExpr): Add
  `location' parameter; update callers.
  (run): Add support for `--no-location'.

* src/nix-instantiate/help.txt: Update accordingly.

* tests/lang.sh: Invoke `nix-instantiate' with `--no-location' for the
  XML tests.

* tests/lang/eval-okay-toxml.exp, tests/lang/eval-okay-to-xml.nix: New
  files.
 2010-03-31 12:38:31 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 13c2adc897 * Implemented `rec { inherit ...; }'. 2010-03-31 11:05:39 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4c53ca2692 * Compare nulls. 2010-03-31 09:54:12 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès 471419d1fa Add source location information to the XML output. 
* src/libexpr/expr-to-xml.cc (nix::showAttrs): Dereference the attribute
  RHS.  Add "path", "line", and "column" XML attributes to the node when
  source location information is available.
  (nix::printTermAsXML): Likewise for functions.
 2010-03-31 08:29:05 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès eb07a4f1ee Escape `>' signs in the XML output. 
* src/libutil/xml-writer.cc (nix::XMLWriter::writeAttrs): Escape `>'.
 2010-03-31 08:29:01 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 7f19e03c65 * More primops. 2010-03-30 22:39:48 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 47df476daa * More operators / primops. 2010-03-30 18:05:54 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c9170be2bd * More primops. 2010-03-30 15:18:20 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c3aa615a5f * More primops. 2010-03-30 14:39:27 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 5b72d8a749 * Implemented `map'. 2010-03-30 13:47:59 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d78a05ab40 * Make `import' work. 2010-03-30 09:22:33 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 31428c3a06 * Started integrating the new evaluator. 2010-03-29 14:37:56 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 52090d2418 2010-03-29 10:13:51 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e3f32ac5af 2010-03-29 09:43:55 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 807a67bc74 2010-03-29 09:43:39 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 392811eb8f * Strings. 2010-03-28 18:27:07 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d96cdcea6b 2010-03-28 16:57:16 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3d2b835f30 * Implemented multi-argument primops. 2010-03-28 16:37:39 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 45d822f29c * Primops (not yet finished). 2010-03-26 15:45:53 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra cad8726b2c * Implemented the ==' and !=' operators. These now use a deep 
equality test, so they also work for (finite) attribute sets and
  lists.
 2010-03-26 13:27:26 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 8da118e4d0 * Measure stack usage. 2010-03-25 16:35:24 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c2ba4313fb * Implemented lists. 2010-03-25 15:38:37 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 25eedf085d * Quick and dirty implementation of with'. with e1; e2' is 
basically desugared to `let <with> = e1; e2', and `lookupVar' looks
  in each <with> in the environment chain for an attribute with the
  specified name.
 2010-03-25 14:51:04 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3c9f8fc9b6 * Don't convert variable names to strings. 2010-03-25 13:10:04 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f450384ded * Implement blackholing. 2010-03-25 12:51:14 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ef8bd919fc * Implement `...' and default function arguments. 2010-03-25 12:45:23 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 8a10360c91 * Simplify @-patterns: only {attrs}@name' or name@{attrs}' are now 
allowed.  So `name1@name2', `{attrs1}@{attrs2}' and so on are now no
  longer legal.  This is no big loss because they were not useful
  anyway.

  This also changes the output of builtins.toXML for @-patterns
  slightly.
 2010-03-25 12:19:41 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 7482349fe8 * Implemented attribute set pattern matches. 2010-03-24 23:40:00 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 0fd3648d34 * Store values in environments. 2010-03-24 12:41:08 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra b70bd8fe56 * Reduce the number of value allocations in eval() by moving 
responsibility for allocation of the result to the caller.
 2010-03-24 12:11:38 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d31c59eb17 * Plain lambdas. 2010-03-24 11:06:05 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e8f7978274 2010-03-23 19:19:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 0910ae9568 * Start of an evaluator that uses call-by-need (with thunk updating) 
instead of (memoised) call-by-name.
 2010-03-23 17:30:50 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 141294ff38 * Clean up error messages in killUser(). 2010-03-19 11:36:34 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f0c473c5f7 * Fix building on Cygwin (http://hydra.nixos.org/build/325071). 2010-03-16 13:01:52 +00:00
Nicolas Pierron 741b7577c1 Merge r20344 & r20346. 2010-03-14 11:58:07 +00:00
Lluís Batlle i Rossell 2fb0df83e9 Uh. somehow a Makefile tab got in as spaces. Fixing. 2010-03-11 21:22:52 +00:00
Lluís Batlle i Rossell 13cce8ec45 Making 'bin2c' to be built with the compiler for the local system. 
I copied the configure.ac code about CC_FOR_BUILD from libX11.
 2010-03-11 20:56:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e020d80e4e * Sync with the trunk. 2010-03-11 15:45:05 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès 05e15049a5 Show the build user's group in /etc/group in chroots. 
* src/libstore/build.cc (nix::DerivationGoal::startBuilder): Create
  /etc/group showing the build user's group.
 2010-03-11 14:47:04 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 070057c1b9 * Sync with the trunk. 2010-03-11 10:52:52 +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
  display any supplementary groups for `nixbld' in /etc/passwd.
 2010-03-11 10:21:23 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 1a65142ec4 * Remove a debug statement. 2010-03-10 12:46:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4c356acd04 * In `nix-store --export', abort if the contents of a path has 
changed.  This prevents corrupt paths from spreading to other
  machines.  Note that checking the hash is cheap because we're
  hashing anyway (because of the --sign feature).
 2010-03-09 14:32:03 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 44f6e6de77 * Set gc-keep-outputs' or gc-keep-derivations' to false with 
`--delete --ignore-liveness'.
 2010-03-08 21:31:42 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 2e4ef03aa3 * Increase the sqlite timeout. 2010-03-08 10:35:45 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 04791840f4 * Emit warning='1' or error='1' attributes for lines marked as 
warnings or errors with \e[w or \e[e.
 2010-03-05 12:54:58 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra bc6f7fc139 * Remove some unused functions. 2010-03-04 13:03:26 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra fb6e223ddc * Synced with the trunk. 2010-03-04 12:15:00 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e14e2399ed * Prevent a potential memory corruption problem if an ATerm garbage 
collection happens during fixAttrs().
 2010-03-02 20:23:42 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 56af8e86e3 * Protect the true', false' and `__overrides' constants. Without 
an ATprotect call, these could be garbage collected, leading to
  weird crashes or wrong results.
 2010-03-02 20:09:12 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3f9e647ae8 * checkInterrupt() shouldn't be called from a destructor. 2010-03-02 19:04:17 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 594eaddd11 * When using the included sqlite/aterm libraries, build with 
--enable-shared.
* In libutil/libstore/libexpr etc., link against sqlite and aterm.
* Some more header file hygiene.
 2010-03-02 15:58:13 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 24035b98b1 * Implement RemoteStore::queryValidPaths(). 2010-02-26 12:05:01 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e42401ee7b * Implement RemoteStore::queryDerivationOutputs(). 2010-02-25 15:52:22 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra af565c348a * Support read-only access to the database. 2010-02-24 16:44:43 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e33f67ff0b * Refactor the upgrade / database initialisation logic a bit. 2010-02-24 16:30:20 +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 cfe742cfc5 * A function to query just the database id of a valid path. 2010-02-24 15:07:23 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 6baa2a2f5e 2010-02-24 14:39:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 9fd85c94de * Use `truncate' journal mode, which should be a bit faster. 2010-02-24 14:22:34 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra fefd467539 * `helpText' is now zero-terminated. 2010-02-24 13:24:27 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra a3c63d0d6c * Disable fsync() in SQLite if the fsync-metadata option is set to 
false.
* Change the default for `fsync-metadata' to true.
* Disable `fsync-metadata' in `make check'.
 2010-02-24 13:12:57 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 90b6352d0a * Do registerValidPaths() in one transaction, which is much faster. 
E.g. it cuts the runtime of the referrers test from 50s to 23s.
 2010-02-24 12:48:00 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra fae0427324 * ADDITIONAL_NETWORK_LIBS -> LIBS. 2010-02-24 12:25:48 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra fa6a4fcb11 * Add ${sqlite_lib} everywhere. Just adding it in `libstore' doesn't 
work on x86_64 when sqlite is compiled statically.
 2010-02-24 12:18:48 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 5954eadf67 * Remove the fdatasync check since it's no longer needed. 2010-02-24 12:16:50 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 462bd50aef * Use normal (rather than full) synchronous mode, which I gather from 
the description at http://www.sqlite.org/atomiccommit.html should be
  safe enough.
 2010-02-24 10:57:57 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 63b09c5e41 2010-02-23 22:31:38 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra b4e6d98fc3 * configure: flag --with-sqlite. 2010-02-23 22:12:46 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 2b20318b0e 2010-02-22 14:24:37 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 9cda616949 * The database needs a trigger to get rid of self-references to 
prevent a foreign key constraint violation on the Refs table when
  deleting a path.
 2010-02-22 14:18:55 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c4d388add4 * Get derivation outputs from the database instead of the .drv file, 
which requires more I/O.
 2010-02-22 12:44:36 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 103cfee056 * Revert r19650 (implement gc-keep-outputs by looking for derivations 
with the same name as the output) and instead use the
  DerivationOutputs table in the database, which is the correct way to
  to do things.
 2010-02-22 11:44:17 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 299ff64812 * Put the derivation outputs in the database. This is useful for the 
garbage collector.
 2010-02-22 11:15:50 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 1930570ad9 * Foreign key support in SQLite is not a persistent setting, so enable 
it at startup.
* Implement negative caching.  Now `make check' passes.
 2010-02-19 17:15:22 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 9c9a88e9e2 * Implement more stuff. 2010-02-19 16:43:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 762cee72cc * Implement registerValidPath(). 2010-02-19 16:04:51 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 268f9aaf28 * Implemented queryValidPaths() and verifyStore(). 2010-02-18 16:51:27 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 836e5b6f57 * Implemented queryReferrers(). 2010-02-18 16:21:59 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 77cb9e3fb1 * Implement queryPathInfo(). 2010-02-18 15:52:57 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 885e22b16e * Implement isValidPath(). 2010-02-18 15:11:08 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra cfb09e0fad * Automatically abort transactions if they go out of scope without 
committing.
 2010-02-18 14:40:07 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e0305bb7a8 * Some wrapper objects to ensure that SQLite objects are properly 
destroyed.
 2010-02-18 14:30:42 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra a053d2d8e5 * Add the deriver to the ValidPaths table. In principle we could now 
store all the derivers of a path efficiently.  But that opens a big
  can of worms with respect to garbage collector semantics.
 2010-02-18 13:48:18 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra dbddac0fe9 * Assign an integer id to every row in the ValidPaths table in order 
to make the Refs table more space-efficient.  For instance, this
  reduces the size of the database on my laptop from 93 MiB to 18
  MiB.  (It was 72 MiB with the old schema on an ext3 disk with a 1
  KiB block size.)
 2010-02-18 13:40:46 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c1a07f9445 * Convert the Nix database to SQLite. 2010-02-18 13:16:59 +00:00
Ludovic Courtès 20186a4079 Don't rely on `PATH_MAX' on GNU. 2010-02-10 15:55:50 +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 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).

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 bcd6cdf0d8 * Give a better error message when trying to build something and 
readOnlyMode is set.
 2009-12-09 17:45:22 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 13618b191e * Grrr. 2009-11-24 13:28:46 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra aa5a768720 * GCC 4.4 is stricter about the EOF macro 
(http://hydra.nixos.org/build/156340).
 2009-11-24 12:56:26 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 9b8fda796b * Templatise getIntArg / string2Int. 2009-11-24 12:26:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 8022015552 * In the garbage collector, don't count files with a link count > 1 in 
the "bytes/blocks freed" statistics.
 2009-11-24 10:51:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f9e766db98 * Randomise the order in which we delete entries to make the collector 
less biased towards deleting paths that come alphabetically first
  (e.g. /nix/store/000...).  This matters when using --max-freed etc.
 2009-11-24 09:53:18 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ca50c83fbb 2009-11-23 21:21:29 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3d55f1eb57 * A command `nix-store --query --roots <paths>' to find the garbage 
collector roots that point (directly or indirectly) to the given
  paths.
 2009-11-23 18:16:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ae6bf87273 * `nix-store --gc --print-roots': also print the path of the actual 
root symlink, not just its target.  E.g.:

  /nix/var/nix/profiles/system-99-link -> /nix/store/76kwf88657nq7wgk1hx3l1z5q91zb9wd-system
 2009-11-23 17:23:12 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c364d5d1e3 * Made the garbage collector a lot faster. It no longer computes the 
complete set of live and dead paths before starting the actual
  deletion, but determines liveness on demand.  I.e. for any path in
  the store, it first tries to delete all the referrers, and then the
  path itself.  This means that the collector can start deleting paths
  almost immediately.
 2009-11-23 16:34:24 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 8824d60fe5 * Remove the --use-atime / --max-atime garbage collector flags. Many 
(Linux) machines no longer maintain the atime because it's too
  expensive, and on the machines where --use-atime is useful (like the
  buildfarm), reading the atimes on the entire Nix store takes way too
  much time to make it practical.
 2009-11-20 17:12:38 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 327a232c85 * Remove support for old (before Nix 0.12pre12020) databases. 2009-11-06 01:15:44 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 8520542071 * When building in a chroot, make a copy of a file if hard-linking 
fails.  This is likely to happen after a `nix-store --optimise',
  because some files may have 32000 links (NIX-111).
 2009-10-22 08:28:33 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 6b9f6b0222 * Remove a prototype for a function that no longer exists. 2009-10-22 08:12:38 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra deb342fb08 * builtins.trace: in the common case that the value is a string, then 
show the string, not the ATerm, so we get `trace: bla' instead of
  `trace: Str("bla",[])'.
 2009-10-22 08:10:12 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 437077c39d * Added a primop unsafeDiscardOutputDependency needed by Disnix to 
pass derivation paths to a builder without actually building them.
 2009-10-21 15:05:30 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 6f7d7bc1de * Give a useful error message when an evaluation error occurs while 
trying to upgrade a package.
 2009-10-13 09:30:17 +00:00
Sander van der Burg 53a4981fa2 Added optional parameter which adds -lnsl -lsocket to make the Nix package manager work on OpenSolaris 2009-10-08 14:50:37 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 96f1517831 * Support platforms that don't have O_ASYNC (e.g. OpenSolaris 
apparently).
 2009-09-30 11:32:04 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 1a8f8fd86f * OpenSolaris compatibility. 2009-09-30 09:54:29 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c7057fc1f2 * And some more. 2009-09-24 07:39:55 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 193f59e077 * Fix a build failure on Fedora 11. rename() needs <stdio.h>. 2009-09-24 07:21:29 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 1332dd1ed3 * tryEval shouldn't catch all exceptions of type Error, since not all 
of them leave the evaluator in a continuable state.  Also, it should
  be less chatty.
 2009-09-23 19:19:26 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 676e07902e * Darwin hack. 2009-09-23 18:04:55 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 64e89980e8 * Create some state directories automatically as a convenience. 2009-09-23 17:05:51 +00:00
