This is because a dynamic_cast<nix::RootArgs *> of a (n-e-j) MyArgs
returns nullptr even though MyArgs has virtual nix::RootArgs as a
parent.
class MyArgs : virtual public nix::MixEvalArgs,
virtual public nix::MixCommonArgs,
virtual nix::RootArgs { ... };
So this should work right?? But it does not. We found out that it's
caused by -fvisibility=hidden in n-e-j, but honestly this code was bad
anyway.
The trivial solution is to simply stop relying on RTTI working properly
here, which is probably better OO architecture anyway. However, I am not
100% confident *this* is sound, since we have this horrible hierarchy:
Args (defines getRoot)
/ | \
RootArgs MixCommonArgs MixEvalArgs
(overrides)
I am not confident that this is guaranteed to resolve from Args always
in the case of this override.

We also found that if we did this:

it would work properly (???!). This is of course, very strange, because
objdump -Ct output on liblixexpr.dylib is identical both with and
without it.

This reverts commit 285bc67318.
Reason for revert: lix-project/lix#364
For some reason this broke `main` even though the change we are reverting passed CI! Mysterious, haunted, etc. Needs more debugging, let's turn it off for now.

If our shellHook is being run from a nested nix-shell (see 7a12bc200¹),
then (I think) it is run from a bash function due to the nesting, then
`return` is correct. If its `eval`'d though, then there isn't really a
correct way to early exit. So we can just unconditionally be executed in
a function.
Basically, we have IIFE at home.

We reviewed this code a while ago, and we neglected to get a comment in
saying why it's Like This at the time. Let's fix that, since it is code
that looks very absurd at first glance.

while refactoring the curl wrapper we inadvertently broken the immutable
flake protocol, because the immutable flake protocol accumulates headers
across the entire redirect chain instead of using only the headers given
in the final response of the chain. this is a problem because Some Known
Providers Of Flake Infrastructure set rel=immutable link headers only in
the penultimate entry of the redirect chain, and curl does not regard it
as worth returning to us via its response header enumeration mechanisms.

This does not fit well into any existing section for either of

If a nested nix-shell is run inside a nix-shell, then the outer shell's
shellHook will be passed through and run again, unless the nested shell
defines its own.
With lix's hook, this can be annoying: forgetting to exit its nix-shell,
cd'ing to another repository & entering a nested nix-shell will happily
install lix's pre-commit hook in it.
This change makes lix's hook return early in such cases.

According to doc/manual/src/contributing/hacking.md, all development
shells should also be available in classic nix using the -A argument
to nix-shell, e.g.
nix-shell -A native-clangStdenvPackages
This was not actually the case; flake-compat generates attrsets like
nix-shell -A devShells.x86_64-linux.native-clangStdenvPackages
instead. These are unwieldy to use, so rather than changing the docs,
this changes the shell.nix file to result in the documented behavior.

check goals for timeouts first, and their activity fds only if no
timeout has occurred. checking for timeouts *after* activity sets
us up for assertion failures by running multiple build completion
notifiers, the first of which will kill/reap the the goal process
and consuming the Pid instance. when the second notifier attempts
to do the same it will core dump with an assertion failure in Pid
and take down not only the single goal, but the entire daemon and
all goals it was building. luckily this is rare in practice since
it requires a build to both finish and time out at the same time.
writing a test for this is not feasible due to how much it relies
on scheduling to actually trigger the underlying bug, but on idle
machines it can usually be triggered by running multiple sleeping
builds with timeout set to the sleep duration and `--keep-going`:
nix-build --timeout 10 --builders '' --keep-going -E '
with import <nixpkgs> {};
builtins.genList
(i: runCommand "foo-${toString i}" {} "sleep 10")
