Eelco Dolstra 2bc5de8635 Rename ‘nix-build --run-env’ to ‘nix-shell’ 2013-07-19 12:02:44 +02:00
Eelco Dolstra dc5f2e7da6 nix-build --run-env: Add a ‘--pure’ flag
This causes the environment to be (almost) cleared, thus giving a
shell that more closely resembled the actual Nix derivation.

Eelco Dolstra a4921b8ceb Revert "build-remote.pl: Enforce timeouts locally"
This reverts commit 69b8f9980f.

The timeout should be enforced remotely.  Otherwise, if the garbage
collector is running either locally or remotely, if will block the
build or closure copying for some time.  If the garbage collector
takes too long, the build may time out, which is not what we want.
Also, on heavily loaded systems, copying large paths to and from the
remote machine can take a long time, also potentially resulting in a
timeout.

Eelco Dolstra 22144afa8d Don't keep "disabled" substituters running
For instance, it's pointless to keep copy-from-other-stores running if
there are no other stores, or download-using-manifests if there are no
manifests.  This also speeds things up because we don't send queries
to those substituters.

Eelco Dolstra 24a356bf71 Replace $NIX_DEBUG_SUBST with an option ‘debug-subst’
Thus passing ‘--option debug-subst 1’ allows daemon users to turn on

Eelco Dolstra 24e063efdc download-from-binary-cache.pl: Show if we're waiting for a URL
Previously, if a binary cache is hanging/unreachable/slow,
download-from-binary-cache.pl would also hang without any indication
to the user.  Now, if fetching a URL takes more than 5 seconds, it
will print a message to that effect.

Eelco Dolstra ff08306746 download-from-binary-cache.pl: Treat a 403 error as a 404
Amazon S3 returns HTTP status code 403 if a file doesn't exist and the
user has no permission to list the contents of the bucket.  So treat
it as 404 (meaning it's cached in the NARExistence table).

Eelco Dolstra bc2e43f3c8 build-remote.pl: Remove meaningless signing when importing the output paths
The "$UID != 0" makes no sense: if the local side has write access to
the Nix store (which is always the case) then it doesn't matter if
we're root - we can import unsigned paths either way.

Eelco Dolstra be0b9dda31 build-remote.pl: Pass /dev/null as SSH's stdin
Otherwise it will set the parent's stdin to non-blocking mode, causing

That's insane.
2013-05-10 02:32:13 +02:00
Eelco Dolstra 78206f06ec build-remote.pl: Allow a machine to refuse a build
Before selecting a machine, build-remote.pl will try to run the
command "nix-builds-inhibited" on the machine.  If this command exists
and returns a 0 exit code, then the machine won't be used.  It's up to
the user to provide this command, but it would typically be a script
that checks whether there is enough disk space and whether the load is
not too high.

Eelco Dolstra 69b8f9980f build-remote.pl: Enforce timeouts locally
Don't pass --timeout / --max-silent-time to the remote builder.
Instead, let the local Nix process terminate the build if it exceeds a
timeout.  The remote builder will be killed as a side-effect.  This
gives better error reporting (since the timeout message from the
remote side wasn't properly propagated) and handles non-Nix problems
like SSH hangs.

Eelco Dolstra 68dcbb187e download-from-binary-cache: Use the channels of the calling user rather than root
This should make live easier for single-user (non-daemon)

is root so we're not using any untrusted caches.

  $ nix-build -A pkg.all

produces ./result, ./result-man and ./result-bin;

  $ nix-build -A pkg.all -A pkg2

produces ./result, ./result-man, ./result-bin and ./result-2.

Eelco Dolstra bbc107ef1e Process binary caches in order of priority
Binary caches can now specify a priority in their nix-cache-info file.
The binary cache substituter checks caches in order of priority.  This
is to ensure that fast, static caches like nixos.org/binary-cache are
processed before slow, dynamic caches like hydra.nixos.org.

This allows disabling the use of binary caches, e.g.

Note that

does not disable all binary caches, since the caches defined by
channels will still be used.

Eelco Dolstra c8daeba303 nix-push: Add ‘--link’ flag
If ‘--link’ is given, nix-push will create hard links to the NAR files

different file system.

Eelco Dolstra 9958bd6992 Add operation ‘nix-store --repair-path’
This operation allows fixing corrupted or accidentally deleted store
paths by redownloading them using substituters, if available.

Since the corrupted path cannot be replaced atomically, there is a
very small time window (one system call) during which neither the old
(corrupted) nor the new (repaired) contents are available.  So
repairing should be used with some care on critical packages like
Glibc.

Eelco Dolstra aac14222f5 nix-profile.sh: Revert to single-user version
Commit 6a214f3e06 copied most of the Nix
shell initialisation code from NixOS to nix-profile.sh; however, that
code assumes a multi-user install and is Linux-specific (e.g. it calls
the "stat" command).  So go back to the simple single-user version.

Fixes #49.

Eelco Dolstra 47ae3ce2ca Put a time-to-live on negative binary cache lookups
Negative lookups are purged from the DB after a day, at most once per
day.  However, for non-"have" lookups (e.g. all except "nix-env
-qas"), negative lookups are ignored after one hour.  This is to
ensure that you don't have to wait a day for an operation like
"nix-env -i" to start using new binaries in the cache.

Should probably make this configurable.

Output names are now appended to resulting GC symlinks, e.g. by

nothing is appended.  E.g. doing "nix-build -A foo" on a derivation
that produces outputs "out", "bin" and "dev" will produce symlinks
"./result", "./result-bin" and "./result-dev", respectively.

Eelco Dolstra 5170c5691a nix-channel: Use binary caches advertised by channels
Channels can now advertise a binary cache by creating a file
<channel-url>/binary-cache-url.  The channel unpacker puts these in
its "binary-caches" subdirectory.  Thus, the URLS of the binary caches
for the channels added by root appear in
/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/eelco/channels/binary-caches/*.  The
binary cache substituter reads these and adds them to the list of
binary caches.

Eelco Dolstra 66a3ac6a56 Allow a binary cache to declare that it doesn't support "nix-env -qas"
Querying all substitutable paths via "nix-env -qas" is potentially
hard on a server, since it involves sending thousands of HEAD
requests.  So a binary cache must now have a meta-info file named
"nix-cache-info" that specifies whether the server wants this.  It
also specifies the store prefix so that we don't send useless queries
to a binary cache for a different store prefix.

Eelco Dolstra 73acb8b836 Let build.cc verify the expected hash of a substituter's output
Since SubstitutionGoal::finished() in build.cc computes the hash

then verify it.
