This has the same goal as b13fd4c58e81b2b2b0d72caa5ce80de861622610,but
achieves it in a different way in order to not break
`nix why-depends --derivation`.
With this, we don't have to copy the entire .drv closure to the
destination store ahead of time (or at all). Instead, buildPaths()
reads .drv files from the eval store and copies inputSrcs to the
destination store if it needs to build a derivation.
Issue #5025.
Only considers the closure in term of `Realisation`, ignores all the
opaque inputs.
Dunno whether that’s the nicest solution, need to think it through a bit
- Pass it the name of the outputs rather than their output paths (as
these don't exist for ca derivations)
- Get the built output paths from the remote builder
- Register the new received realisations
In addition to being some ugly template trickery, it was also totally
useless as it was used in only one place where I could replace it by
just a few extra characters
Where a `RealisedPath` is a store path with its history, meaning either
an opaque path for stuff that has been directly added to the store, or a
`Realisation` for stuff that has been built by a derivation
This is a low-level refactoring that doesn't bring anything by itself
(except a few dozen extra lines of code :/ ), but raising the
abstraction level a bit is important on a number of levels:
- Commands like `nix build` have to query for the realisations after the
build is finished which is fragile (see
27905f12e4a7207450abe37c9ed78e31603b67e1 for example). Having them
oprate directly at the realisation level would avoid that
- Others like `nix copy` currently operate directly on (built) store
paths, but need a bit more information as they will need to register
the realisations on the remote side
Rather than storing the derivation outputs as `drvPath!outputName` internally,
store them as `drvHashModulo!outputName` (or `outputHash!outputName` for
fixed-output derivations).
This makes the storage slightly more opaque, but enables an earlier
cutoff in cases where a fixed-output dependency changes (but keeps the
same output hash) − same as what we already do for input-addressed
derivations.
For each known realisation, store:
- its output
- its output path
This comes with a set of needed changes:
- New `realisations` module declaring the types needed for describing
these mappings
- New `Store::registerDrvOutput` method registering all the needed informations
about a derivation output (also replaces `LocalStore::linkDeriverToPath`)
- new `Store::queryRealisation` method to retrieve the informations for a
derivations
This introcudes some redundancy on the remote-store side between
`wopQueryDerivationOutputMap` and `wopQueryRealisation`.
However we might need to keep both (regardless of backwards compat)
because we sometimes need to get some infos for all the outputs of a
derivation (where `wopQueryDerivationOutputMap` is handy), but all the
stores can't implement it − because listing all the outputs of a
derivation isn't really possible for binary caches where the server
doesn't allow to list a directory.
