Recently, I encountered the "NAR info file 'xxxx' is corrupt" error
with my binary cache. The message is not helpful in determining, which
kind of corruption happened. The file, fetched with curl, looked
reasonably.
This commit adds more information to the error message, which should
allow debugging and hopefully fixing the problem.
We finally test the status quo of remote build trust in a number of
ways. We create a new experimental feature on `nix-daemon` to do so.
PR #3921, which improves the situation with trustless remote building,
will build upon these changes. This code / tests was pull out of there
to make this, so everything is easier to review, and in particular we
test before and after so the new behavior in that PR is readily apparent
from the testsuite diff alone.
Issues:
1. Features gated on disabled experimental settings should warn and be
ignored, not silently succeed.
2. Experimental settings in the same config "batch" (file or env var)
as the enabling of the experimental feature should work.
3. For (2), the order should not matter.
These are analogous to the issues @roberth caught with my changes for
arg handling, but they are instead for config handling.

In many cases we are dealing with a collection of realisations, they are
all outputs of the same derivation. In that case, we don't need
"derivation hashes modulos" to be part of our map key, because the
output names alone will be unique. Those hashes are still part of the
realisation proper, so we aren't loosing any information, we're just
"normalizing our schema" by narrowing the "primary key".
Besides making our data model a bit "tighter" this allows us to avoid a
double `for` loop in `DerivationGoal::waiteeDone`. The inner `for` loop
was previously just to select the output we cared about without knowing
its hash. Now we can just select the output by name directly.
Note that neither protocol is changed as part of this: we are still
transferring `DrvOutputs` over the wire for `BuildResult`s. I would only
consider revising this once #6223 is merged, and we can mention protocol
versions inside factored-out serialization logic. Until then it is
better not change anything because it would come a the cost of code
reuse.
If my memory is correct, @edolstra objected to modifying `wantedOutputs`
upon falling back to doing a build (as we did before), because we should
only modify it in response to new requests --- *actual* wants --- and
not because we are "incidentally" building all the outptus beyond what
may have been requested.
That's a fair point, and the alternative is to replace the boolean soup
with proper enums: Instead of modifying `wantedOuputs` som more, we'll
modify `needsRestart` to indicate we are passed the need.
In https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/6311#discussion_r834863823, I
realized since derivation goals' wanted outputs can "grow" due to
overlapping dependencies (See `DerivationGoal::addWantedOutputs`, called
by `Worker::makeDerivationGoalCommon`), the previous bug fix had an
unfortunate side effect of causing more pointless rebuilds.
In paticular, we have this situation:
1. Goal made from `DerivedPath::Built { foo, {a} }`.
2. Goal gives on on substituting, starts building.
3. Goal made from `DerivedPath::Built { foo, {b} }`, in fact is just
modified original goal.
4. Though the goal had gotten as far as building, so all outputs were
going to be produced, `addWantedOutputs` no longer knows that and so
the goal is flagged to be restarted.
This might sound far-fetched with input-addressed drvs, where we usually
basically have all our goals "planned out" before we start doing
anything, but with CA derivation goals and especially RFC 92, where *drv
resolution* means goals are created after some building is completed, it
is more likely to happen.
So the first thing to do was restore the clearing of `wantedOutputs` we
used to do, and then filter the outputs in `buildPathsWithResults` to
only get the ones we care about.
But fix also has its own side effect in that the `DerivedPath` in the
`BuildResult` in `DerivationGoal` cannot be trusted; it is merely the
*first* `DerivedPath` for which this goal was originally created.
To remedy this, I made `BuildResult` be like it was before, and instead
made `KeyedBuildResult` be a subclass wit the path. Only
`buildPathsWithResults` returns `KeyedBuildResult`s, everything else
just becomes like it was before, where the "key" is unambiguous from
context.
I think separating the "primary key" field(s) from the other fields is
good practical in general anyways. (I would like to do the same thing
for `ValidPathInfo`.) Among other things, it allows constructions like
`std::map<Key, ThingWithKey>` where doesn't contain duplicate keys and
just precludes the possibility of those duplicate keys being out of
sync.
We might leverage the above someday to overload `buildPathsWithResults`
to take a *set* of return a *map* per the above.
-----
Unfortunately, we need to avoid C++20 strictness on designated
initializers.
(BTW
https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2021/p2287r1.html
this offers some new syntax for this use-case. Hopefully this will be
adopted and we can eventually use it.)
No having that yet, maybe it would be better to not make
`KeyedBuildResult` a subclass to just avoid this.

As requested by @roberth, it is good to call out the specific instances
we care about, which is `!` for the RPC protocols, and `^` for humans.
This doesn't take advantage of parametricity as much, but since the
human and computer interfaces are good to decouple anyways (we don't
care if they drift further apart over time in the slightest) some
separation and slight duplication is fine.
Also, unit test both round trips.
More progress on issue #5729
The method trivially generalizes to be store-implementation-agnostic, in
fact.
However, we force it to continue to be unimplemented with `RemoteStore`
and `LegacySSHStore` because the implementation we'd get via the
generalization is probably not the one users expect. This keeps our
hands untied to do it right going forward.
For more about the tension between the scheduler logic being
store-type-agnostic and remote stores doing their own scheduling, see
issues #5025 and #5056.
The warning message should produce an installable name that can be
passed to `nix build`, `nix path-info`, etc. again. Since the CLI
expects that the .drv path and the output names are separated by
a caret, the warning message must also separate the .drv path and output
names with a caret.
However, `DerivedPath::Built.to_string()` uses an exclamation point as
the separator instead. This commit adds a `separator` argument to the
to_string method.
This changes the warning message from:
If this command is now failing try again with '/nix/store/foo.drv!*'
to:
If this command is now failing try again with '/nix/store/foo.drv^*'
More progress on issue #5729.
Instead of having it by the default method in `Store` itself, have it be
the implementation in `DummyStore` and `LegacySSHStore`. Then just the
implementations which fail to provide the method pay the "penalty" of
dealing with the icky `unimplemented` function for non-compliance.
Combined with my other recent PRs, this finally makes `Store` have no
`unsupported` calls!
Getting the occasional SQLITE_BUSY is expected when the database is being
accessed concurrently. The retry will likely succeed so it is pointless to warn
immediately. Instead we track how long each retrySQLite block has been running,
and only begin warning after a second has elapsed (and then every 10 seconds
subsequently).
libutil is a dependency of libstore, so it should always be
initialized as such.
libutil is also a dependency of libmain. Being explicit about this
dependency might be good, but not worth the slight code complexity
until the library structure gets more advanced.
Part of an effort to make it easier to initialize the right things,

This code is bad. We shouldn't unset variables in programs whose

* Finish converting existing comments for internal API docs
99% of this was just reformatting existing comments. Only two exceptions:
- Expanded upon `BuildResult::status` compat note
- Split up file-level `symbol-table.hh` doc comments to get
per-definition docs
Also fixed a few whitespace goofs, turning leading tabs to spaces and
removing trailing spaces.
Picking up from #8133
* Fix two things from comments
* Use triple-backtick not indent for `dumpPath`
* Convert GNU-style `\`..'` quotes to markdown style in API docs
This will render correctly.
This is non-breaking change in the to-JSON direction. This *is* a
breaking change in the from-JSON direction, but we don't care, as that
is brand new in this PR.
`nix show-derivation --help` currently has the sole public documentation

The code is not local-store-specific, so we should share it with all
stores. More uniform behavior is better, and a less store-specific
functionality is more maintainable.
This fixes a FIXME added in f73d911628 by @edolstra himself.
This fixes the issue that `nix-build`, without experimental feature
'nix-command' enabled, recommends the experimental CLI `nix log` to view
build logs. Now it'll recommend the stable `nix-store -l` CLI instead.
Fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/8118
Pause logger before starting SSH connections, and resume it after the
connection is established, so that SSH password prompts are not erased
by the logger's updates.
Otherwise, when running as root and user namespaces are enabled,
opening the slave fails with EPERM.
Fixes "opening pseudoterminal slave: Permission denied" followed by a
hang (https://hydra.nixos.org/build/213104244), and "error: getting
sandbox mount namespace: No such file or directory" (#8072), which
happens when the child fails very quickly and consequently reading
/proc/<child>/ns fails.
This provides a platform-independent way to configure the SSL
certificates file in the Nix daemon. Previously we provided
instructions for overriding the environment variable in launchd, but
that obviously doesn't work with systemd. Now we can just tell users
to add
ssl-cert-file = /etc/ssl/my-certificate-bundle.crt
to their nix.conf.
Hopefully this fixes "unexpected EOF" failures on macOS
(#3137, #3605, #7242, #7702).
The problem appears to be that under some circumstances, macOS
discards the output written to the slave side of the
pseudoterminal. Hence the parent never sees the "sandbox initialized"
message from the child, even though it succeeded. The conditions are:
* The child finishes very quickly. That's why this bug is likely to
trigger in nix-env tests, since that uses a builtin builder. Adding
a short sleep before the child exits makes the problem go away.
* The parent has closed its duplicate of the slave file
descriptor. This shouldn't matter, since the child has a duplicate
as well, but it does. E.g. moving the close to the bottom of
startBuilder() makes the problem go away. However, that's not a
solution because it would make Nix hang if the child dies before
sending the "sandbox initialized" message.
* The system is under high load. E.g. "make installcheck -j16" makes
the issue pretty reproducible, while it's very rare under "make
installcheck -j1".
As a fix/workaround, we now open the pseudoterminal slave in the
child, rather than the parent. This removes the second condition
(i.e. the parent no longer needs to close the slave fd) and I haven't
been able to reproduce the "unexpected EOF" with this.
I saw this random failure in https://hydra.nixos.org/build/211811692:
error: opening /proc/15307/fd: No such process
while running nix-collect-garbage in a readfile-context.sh. This is
because we're not handling ESRCH errors reading /proc/<pid>/fd. So
just move the read inside the try/catch where we do handle it.
`nix copy` operations did not show progress. This is quite confusing.
Add a `progressSink` which displays the progress during `copyPaths`,
pretty much copied from `copyStorePath`.

The curl download can outlive DrvOutputSubstitutionGoal (if some other
error occurs), so at shutdown setting the promise to an exception will
fail because 'this' is no longer valid in the callback. This can
manifest itself as a segfault, "corrupted double-linked list" or hang.
We make sure the env var paths are actually set (ie. not "") before
sending them to the canonicalization function. If we forget to do so,
the user will end up facing a puzzled failed assertion internal error.
We issue a non-failing warning as a stop-gap measure. We could want to
revisit this to issue a detailed failing error message in the future.
Currently the valid key is only present when the path is invalid, which
makes checking path validity more complex than it should be. With this
change, the valid key can always be used to check if a path is valid
At the moment an Error is thrown that only holds an error message
regarding `nix-env` and `nix profile`. These tools make use of
builtins.buildEnv, but buildEnv is also used in other places. These
places are unrelated to Nix profiles, so the error shouldn't mention
these tools.
This generic error is now BuildEnvFileConflictError, which holds more
contextual information about the files that were conflicting while
building the environment.
Nixpkgs on aarch64-linux is currently stuck on GCC 9
(https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/208412) and using gcc11Stdenv
doesn't work either.
So use c++2a instead of c++20 for now. Unfortunately this means we
can't use some C++20 features for now (like std::span).
XDG Base Directory is a standard for locations for storing various
files. Nix has a few files which seem to fit in the standard, but
currently use a custom location directly in the user's ~, polluting
it:
- ~/.nix-profile
- ~/.nix-defexpr
- ~/.nix-channels
This commit adds a config option (use-xdg-base-directories) to follow
the XDG spec and instead use the following locations:
- $XDG_STATE_HOME/nix/profile
- $XDG_STATE_HOME/nix/defexpr
- $XDG_STATE_HOME/nix/channels
If $XDG_STATE_HOME is not set, it is assumed to be ~/.local/state.

Fixes#3898
The entire `BinaryCaches` row used to get replaced after it became
stale according to the `timestamp` column. In a concurrent scenario,
this leads to foreign key conflicts as different instances of the
in-process `state.caches` cache now differ, with the consequence that
the older process still tries to use the `id` number of the old record.
Furthermore, this phenomenon appears to have caused the cache for
actual narinfos to be erased about every week, while the default
ttl for narinfos was supposed to be 30 days.
This is slightly more accurate considering that an outdated record
may exist in the persistent cache. Possibly-outdated records are
quite relevant as they may be foreign keys to more recent information
that we want to keep, but we will not return them here.
In unprivileged podman containers, /proc is not fully visible (there
are other filesystems mounted on subdirectories of /proc). Therefore
we can't mount a new /proc in the sandbox that matches the PID
namespace of the sandbox. So this commit automatically disables
sandboxing if /proc is not fully visible.
This didn't work because sandboxing doesn't work in Docker. However,
the sandboxing check is done lazily - after clone(CLONE_NEWNS) fails,
we retry with sandboxing disabled. But at that point, we've already
done UID allocation under the assumption that user namespaces are
enabled.
So let's get rid of the "goto fallback" logic and just detect early
whether user / mount namespaces are enabled.
This commit also gets rid of a compatibility hack for some ancient
Linux kernels (<2.13).
tl;dr: With this 1 line change I was able to get a speedup of 1.5x on 1Gbit/s
wan connections by enabling zstd compression in nginx.
Also nix already supported all common compression format for http
transfer, webservers usually only enable them if they are advertised
through the Accept-Encoding header.
This pull requests makes nix advertises content compression support for
zstd, br, gzip and deflate.
It's particular useful to add transparent compression for binary caches
that serve packages from the host nix store in particular nix-serve,
nix-serve-ng and harmonia.
I tried so far gzip, brotli and zstd, whereas only zstd was able to bring
me performance improvements for 1Gbit/s WAN connections.
The following nginx configuration was used in combination with the
[zstd module](https://github.com/tokers/zstd-nginx-module) and
[harmonia](https://github.com/nix-community/harmonia/)
```nix
{
services.nginx.virtualHosts."cache.yourhost.com" = {
locations."/".extraConfig = ''
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5000;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_redirect http:// https://;

Update src/libstore/filetransfer.cc
Co-authored-by: Théophane Hufschmitt <7226587+thufschmitt@users.noreply.github.com>
These settings are not needed for libstore at all, they are just used by
the nix daemon *command* for authorization on unix domain sockets. My
moving them to a new configuration struct just in that file, we avoid
them leaking anywhere else.
Also, it is good to break up the mammoth `Settings` struct in general.
Issue #5638 tracks this.
The message is not changed because I do not want to regress in
convenience to the user. Just saying "this connection is not trusted"
doesn't tell them out to fix the issue. The ideal thing to do would be
to somehow parameterize `processCommand` on how the error should be
displayed, so different sorts of connections can display different
information to the user based on how authentication is performed for the
connection in question. This, however, is a good bit more work, so it is
left for the future.
This came up with me thinking about the tcp:// store (#5265). The larger
project is not TCP *per se*, but the idea that it should be possible for
something else to manage access control to services like the Nix Daemon,
and those services simply trust or trust the incoming connection as they
are told. This is a more capability-oriented way of thinking about trust
than "every server implements its own auth separately" as we are used to today.
Its very great that libstore itself already implements just this model,
and so via this refactor I basically want to "enshrine" that so it
continues to be the case.
With the switch to C++20, the rules became more strict, and we can no
longer initialize base classes. Make them comments instead.
(BTW
https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2021/p2287r1.html
this offers some new syntax for this use-case. Hopefully this will be
adopted and we can eventually use it.)
I don't think the `narHash` is in need of documentation more than the
other undocumented fields, but regardless this change has nothing to do
with that field and so we should leave the comment as is.
`&` without space before is far more common on this codebase than I
thought, so it is not worth changing just this one file. Maybe we will
adopt a formatter someday but until then this is fine.
The references set seems to have been unused since `LegacySSHStore`
references were first created in
caa5793b4a.
The method decls never were upstream, and accidentally added by me in
062533f7cd (probably due to `git rerere`).
Sorry!
This reduces the diff from #3746.
Avoid needless work and throwing away invariants.
These conversions date back to when `StorePath` was in Rust and there
were issues with it missing utility methods.
It's used as the “system” profile in a bunch of places, so better not
touch it. Besides, it doesn't hurt to keep it since it's owned by root
any way, so it doesn't have the `chown` problem that the user profiles
had and that led to wanting to move them on the client-side.
Rather than using `/nix/var/nix/{profiles,gcroots}/per-user/`, put the user
profiles and gcroots under `$XDG_DATA_DIR/nix/{profiles,gcroots}`.
This means that the daemon no longer needs to manage these paths itself
(they are fully handled client-side). In particular, it doesn’t have to
`chown` them anymore (removing one need for root).
This does change the layout of the gc-roots created by nix-env, and is
likely to break some stuff, so I’m not sure how to properly handle that.
Originally there was no `path-info.*`, then there was `path-info.hh`,
then there was `path-info.cc`, but only for new things. Moving this
stuff over makes everything consistent.
This should be a non-empty set, and so we don't want people doing this
by accident. We remove the zero-0 constructor with a little inheritance
trickery.
`DerivedPath::Built` and `DerivationGoal` were previously using a
regular set with the convention that the empty set means all outputs.
But it is easy to forget about this rule when processing those sets.
Using `OutputSpec` forces us to get it right.
This way the links are clearly within the manual (ie not absolute paths),
while allowing snippets to reference the documentation root reliably,
regardless of at which base url they're included.
macOS doesn't have user namespacing, so the gid of the builder needs
to be nixbld. The logic got "has sandboxing enabled" confused with
"has user namespaces".
Fixes#7529.
This basically reverts 6e5165b773.
It fixes errors like
sandbox-exec: <internal init prelude>:292:47: unable to open sandbox-minimal.sb: not found
when trying to run a development Nix installed in a user's home
directory.
Also, we're trying to minimize the number of installed files
to make it possible to deploy Nix as a single statically-linked
binary.
Adds a new boolean structured attribute
`outputChecks.<output>.unsafeDiscardReferences` which disables scanning
an output for runtime references.
__structuredAttrs = true;
outputChecks.out.unsafeDiscardReferences = true;
This is useful when creating filesystem images containing their own embedded Nix
store: they are self-contained blobs of data with no runtime dependencies.
Setting this attribute requires the experimental feature
`discard-references` to be enabled.
Previously addTempRoot() acquired the LocalStore state lock and waited
for the garbage collector to reply. If the garbage collector is in the
same process (as it the case with auto-GC), this would deadlock as
soon as the garbage collector thread needs the LocalStore state lock.
So now addTempRoot() uses separate Syncs for the state that it
needs. As long at the auto-GC thread doesn't call addTempRoot() (which
it shouldn't), it shouldn't deadlock.
Fixes#3224.
This also moves the file handle into its own Sync object so we're not
holding the _state while acquiring the file lock. There was no real
deadlock risk here since locking a newly created file cannot block,
but it's still a bit nicer.
This has the same goal as b13fd4c58e81b2b2b0d72caa5ce80de861622610,but
achieves it in a different way in order to not break
`nix why-depends --derivation`.
In principle, this should avoid deadlocks where two instances of Nix are
holding a shared lock on big-lock and are both waiting to get an
exclusive lock.
However, it seems like `flock(2)` is supposed to do this automatically,
so it's not clear whether this is actually where the problem comes from.
This makes 'nix develop' set the Linux personality in the same way
that the actual build does, allowing a command like 'nix develop
nix#devShells.i686-linux.default' on x86_64-linux to work correctly.
Without this, the error is lost, and it makes for a hard to debug
situation. Also remove some of the busyness inside the sqlite_open_v2
args.
The errcode returned is not the extended one. The only way to make open
return an extended code, would be to add SQLITE_OPEN_EXRESCODE to the
flags. In the future it might be worth making this change,
which would also simplify the existing SQLiteError code.
They did not include the detailed error message, losing essential
information for troubleshooting.
Example message:

It's not the best example; more important information will be in
the message for e.g. a constraint violation.
I don't see why this specific error is printed as a warning, but
that's for another commit.
Unsetting `build-users-group` (without `auto-allocate-uids` enabled)

Fix the logic in `useBuildUsers` and document the default value

Fix#6209
When trying to run `nix log <installable>`, try first to resolve the derivation pointed to
by `<installable>` as it is the resolved one that holds the build log.
This has a couple of shortcomings:
1. It’s expensive as it requires re-reading the derivation
2. It’s brittle because if the derivation doesn’t exist anymore or can’t
be resolved (which is the case if any one of its build inputs is missing),
then we can’t access the log anymore
However, I don’t think we can do better (at least not right now).
The alternatives I see are:
1. Copy the build log for the un-resolved derivation. But that means a
lot of duplication
2. Store the results of the resolving in the db. Which might be the best
long-term solution, but leads to a whole new class of potential
issues.
These only functioned if a very narrow combination of conditions held:
- The result path does not yet exist (--check did not result in
repeated builds), AND
- The result path is not available from any configured substituters, AND
- No remote builders that can build the path are available.
If any of these do not hold, a derivation would be built 0 or 1 times
regardless of the repeat option. Thus, remove it to avoid confusion.

We shouldn't skip this if the supplementary group list is empty,
because then the sandbox won't drop the supplementary groups of the
parent (like "root").
The new experimental feature 'cgroups' enables the use of cgroups for
all builds. This allows better containment and enables setting
resource limits and getting some build stats.
It occurred when a output of the dependency was already available,
so it didn't need rebuilding and didn't get added to the
inputDrvOutputs.
This process-related info wasn't suitable for the purpose of finding
the actual input paths for the builder. It is better to do this in
absolute terms by querying the store.
This change is needed to support aws-sdk-cpp 1.10 and newer.
I opted not to make this dependent on the sdk version because
the crt dependency has been in the interface of the older
sdk as well, and it was only coincidence that libstore didn't
make use of any privately defined symbols directly.
When calling `builtins.readFile` on a store path, the references of that
path are currently added to the resulting string's context.
This change makes those references the *possible* context of the string,
but filters them to keep only the references whose hash actually appears
in the string, similarly to what is done for determining the runtime
references of a path.
Cgroups are now only used for derivations that require the uid-range
range feature. This allows auto UID allocation even on systems that
don't have cgroups (like macOS).
Also, make things work on modern systems that use cgroups v2 (where
there is a single hierarchy and no "systemd" controller).
