Eelco Dolstra 233b063b08 Move store docs to 'nix help-stores'
Why not 'nix help stores'? Well, 'nix help <arg>' already means 'show
help on the "arg" subcommand'.

Eelco Dolstra 16db8dc96f Open slave pseudoterminal before CLONE_NEWUSER
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.

Make command infra less stateful and more regular
2023-03-15 17:23:40 -04:00
John Ericson bc23a44c54 Make command infra less stateful and more regular
Already, we had classes like `BuiltPathsCommand` and `StorePathsCommand`
which provided alternative `run` virtual functions providing the
implementation with more arguments. This was a very nice and easy way to
make writing command; just fill in the virtual functions and it is
fairly clear what to do.

However, exception to this pattern were `Installable{,s}Command`. These
two classes instead just had a field where the installables would be
stored, and various side-effecting `prepare` and `load` machinery too
fill them in. Command would wish out those fields.

This isn't so clear to use.

What this commit does is make those command classes like the others,
with richer `run` functions.

Not only does this restore the pattern making commands easier to write,
it has a number of other benefits:

- `prepare` and `load` are gone entirely! One command just hands just
  hands off to the next.

- `useDefaultInstallables` because `defaultInstallables`. This takes
  over `prepare` for the one case that needs it, and provides enough
  flexiblity to handle `nix repl`'s idiosyncratic migration.

- We can use `ref` instead of `std::shared_ptr`. The former must be
  initialized (so it is like Rust's `Box` rather than `Option<Box>`,
  This expresses the invariant that the installable are in fact
  initialized much better.

  This is possible because since we just have local variables not
  fields, we can stop worrying about the not-yet-initialized case.

- Fewer lines of code! (Finally I have a large refactor that makes the
  number go down not up...)

- `nix repl` is now implemented in a clearer way.

The last item deserves further mention. `nix repl` is not like the other
installable commands because instead working from once-loaded
installables, it needs to be able to load them again and again.

To properly support this, we make a new superclass
`RawInstallablesCommand`. This class has the argument parsing and
completion logic, but does *not* hand off parsed installables but
instead just the raw string arguments.

This is exactly what `nix repl` needs, and allows us to instead of
having the logic awkwardly split between `prepare`,
`useDefaultInstallables,` and `load`, have everything right next to each
other. I think this will enable future simplifications of that argument
defaulting logic, but I am saving those for a future PR --- best to keep
code motion and more complicated boolean expression rewriting separate
steps.

The "diagnostic ignored `-Woverloaded-virtual`" pragma helps because C++
doesn't like our many `run` methods. In our case, we don't mind the
shadowing it all --- it is *intentional* that the derived class only
provides a `run` method, and doesn't call any of the overridden `run`
methods.

Eelco Dolstra c536e00c9d Move pseudoterminal slave open to child
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.

Alexander Bantyev 4bef2016a1
Display progress when running copyPaths (nix copy)
`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`.

Eelco Dolstra 7bfed34367 Fix crash/hang with CA derivations
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.

Valentin Gagarin 2af9fd20c6 clarify definition of "installable"
the term was hard to discover, as its definition and explanation were in
a very long document lacking an overview section.
search did not help because it occurs so often.

- clarify wording in the definition
- add an overview of installable types
- add "installable" to glossary
- link to definition from occurrences of the term
- be more precise about where store derivation outputs are processed
- installable Nix expressions must evaluate to a derivation

Sidharth Kshatriya 427555861b Print the store paths to be fetched sorted by StorePath name() and not baseName
Presently when nix says something like:

```
these 486 paths will be fetched (511.54 MiB download, 6458.64 MiB unpacked):
 ...path1
 ...path2
 ...path3
    ...
    ...
 ...path486
```

It sorts path1, path2, path3, ..., path486 in lexicographic order of the
store path.

After this commit, nix will show path1, path2, path3, ..., path486 sorted by
StorePath name() (basically everything after the hash) rather than the store path.

This makes it easier to review what exactly is being downloaded at a glance,
especially when many paths need to be fetched.
