John Ericson 9800c1e807 Mark experimental configuration settings programmatically
Fix #8162

The test is changed to compare `nlohmann::json` values, not strings of dumped
JSON, which allows us to format things more nicely.

John Ericson 450e5ec618 Do not gate or hide experimental settings
This is somewhat hacky fix just for 2.15. I unintentionally hid them
from the manual, when no one wanted to hide them that (including
myself). I also required the experimental feature to be enabled in an
order-dependent way, which is not good.

The simplest fix for this immanent release is just to always show them,
and always allow them to be set.

Effectively undoes some changes from aa663b7e89

Robert Hensing 2196fd1146 libutil: Provide alternatives to startSignalHandlerThread
How signals should be handled depends on what kind of process Nix
is integrated into. The signal handler thread used by the stand-alone
Nix commands / processes may not work well in the context of other
runtime systems, such as those of Python, Perl, or Haskell.

Finish converting existing comments for internal API docs (#8146)
* 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.

Théophane Hufschmitt 214f1d6791 Rename and protect BufferedSink::write
The `write` name is ambiguous and could lead to some funny bugs like
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/8173#issuecomment-1500009480. So
rename it to the more explicit `writeUnbuffered`.
Besides, this method shouldn't be (and isn't) used outside of the class
implementation, so mark it `protected`.

This makes it more symetrical to `BufferedSource` which uses a
`protected readUnbuffered` method.

John Ericson bc192a95ef Describe active experimental features in the contributing guide
They are put in the manual separate pages under the new overarching
description of experimental features.

The settings page just lists the valid experimental feature names (so
people know what a valid setting entry looks like), with links to those
pages. It doesn't attempt to describe each experimental feature as that
is too much information for the configuration settings section.

John Ericson 53d0836347 Assemble experimental feature docs outside of Nix itself
Instead of constructing a markdown list in C++ (which involved all sorts
of nasty string literals), export some JSON and assemble it with the
manual build system.

Besides following the precedent set with other dumped data, this is a
better separate of content and presentation; if we decide for example we
want to display this information in a different way, or in a different
section of the manual, it will become much easier to do so.

Merge pull request #8157 from hercules-ci/switch-bugs
Fix current and future `switch` bugs
2023-04-03 20:43:02 +02:00
Robert Hensing fba7be80eb Enable -Werror=switch-enum
switch statements must now match all enum values or disable the
warning.

Explicit is good. This has helped us find two bugs, after solving
another one by debugging.

From now on, adding to an enum will raise errors where they are
not explicitly handled, which is good for productivity, and helps
us decide the correct behavior in all usages.

Notably still excluded from this though are the cases where the
warning is disabled by local pragmas.

fromTOML.cc did not build despite a top-level pragma, so I've had
to resort to a makefile solution for that.

John Ericson 4a0b893d5e Stuctured command stability
Prior to this, there was an ad-hoc whitelist in `main.cc`. Now, every
command states its stability.

In a future PR, we will adjust the manual to take advantage of this new
information in the JSON.
(It will be easier to do that once we have some experimental feature
docs to link too; see #5930 and #7798.)

Robert Hensing 233c4cf30f error.cc: Only suggest show-trace when truncated trace items would be printed
Otherwise, a trace consisting of

frame
frame
frame
non-frame

... would reach the non-frame and print the suggestion, even though
it would have ignored the non-frame anyway.

This resulted in a peculariar situation where --show-trace would have
no apparent effect, as the trace was actually already complete.

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.

John Ericson 4607ac7aed Fix handling of experimental features mid-parse
If we conditionally "declare" the argument, as we did before, based upon
weather the feature is enabled, commands like

    nix --experimental-features=foo ... --thing-gated-on-foo

won't work, because the experimental feature isn't enabled until *after*
we start parsing.

Instead, allow arguments to also be associated with experimental
features (just as we did for builtins and settings), and then the
command line parser will filter out the experimental ones.

Since the effects of arguments (handler functions) are performed right
away, we get the required behavior: earlier arguments can enable later
arguments enabled!

There is just one catch: we want to keep non-positional
flags...non-positional. So if

    nix --experimental-features=foo ... --thing-gated-on-foo

works, then

    nix --thing-gated-on-foo --experimental-features=foo ...

should also work.

This is not my favorite long-term solution, but for now this is
implemented by delaying the requirement of needed experimental features
until *after* all the arguments have been parsed.

John Ericson aa663b7e89 Mark experimental features on settings
We hide them in various ways if the experimental feature isn't enabled.

To do this, we had to move the experimental features list out of
libnixstore, because the setting machinary itself depends on it. To do
that, we made a new `ExperimentalFeatureSettings`.
