Without the change any CA deletion triggers linear scan on large
RealisationsRefs table:
sqlite>.eqp full
sqlite> delete from RealisationsRefs where realisationReference IN ( select id from Realisations where outputPath = 1234567890 );
QUERY PLAN
|--SCAN RealisationsRefs
`--LIST SUBQUERY 1
`--SEARCH Realisations USING COVERING INDEX IndexRealisationsRefsOnOutputPath (outputPath=?)
With the change it gets turned into a lookup:
sqlite> CREATE INDEX IndexRealisationsRefsRealisationReference on RealisationsRefs(realisationReference);
sqlite> delete from RealisationsRefs where realisationReference IN ( select id from Realisations where outputPath = 1234567890 );
QUERY PLAN
|--SEARCH RealisationsRefs USING INDEX IndexRealisationsRefsRealisationReference (realisationReference=?)
`--LIST SUBQUERY 1
`--SEARCH Realisations USING COVERING INDEX IndexRealisationsRefsOnOutputPath (outputPath=?)
If the derivation `foo` depends on `bar`, and they both have the same
output path (because they are CA derivations), then this output path
will depend both on the realisation of `foo` and of `bar`, which
themselves depend on each other.
This confuses SQLite which isn’t able to automatically solve this
diamond dependency scheme.
Help it by adding a trigger to delete all the references between the
relevant realisations.
Fix#5320
Otherwise the clang builds fail because the constructor of `SQLiteBusy`
inherits it, `SQLiteError::_throw` tries to call it, which fails.
Strangely, gcc works fine with it. Not sure what the correct behavior is
and who is buggy here, but either way, making it public is at the worst
a reasonable workaround
This ensures that use-sites properly trigger new monomorphisations on
one hand, and on the other hand keeps the main `sqlite.hh` clean and
interface-only. I think that is good practice in general, but in this
situation in particular we do indeed have `sqlite.hh` users that don't
need the `throw_` function.
Previously it only logged the builder's path, this changes it to log the
arguments at the same log level, and the environment variables at the
vomit level.
This helped me debug https://github.com/svanderburg/node2nix/issues/75
This was caused by SubstitutionGoal not setting the errorMsg field in
its BuildResult. We now get a more descriptive message than in 2.7.0, e.g.
error: path '/nix/store/13mh...' is required, but there is no substituter that can build it
instead of the misleading (since there was no build)
error: build of '/nix/store/13mh...' failed
Fixes#6295.
Impure derivations are derivations that can produce a different result
every time they're built. Example:
stdenv.mkDerivation {
name = "impure";
__impure = true; # marks this derivation as impure
outputHashAlgo = "sha256";
outputHashMode = "recursive";
buildCommand = "date > $out";
};
Some important characteristics:
* This requires the 'impure-derivations' experimental feature.
* Impure derivations are not "cached". Thus, running "nix-build" on
the example above multiple times will cause a rebuild every time.
* They are implemented similar to CA derivations, i.e. the output is
moved to a content-addressed path in the store. The difference is
that we don't register a realisation in the Nix database.
* Pure derivations are not allowed to depend on impure derivations. In
the future fixed-output derivations will be allowed to depend on
impure derivations, thus forming an "impurity barrier" in the
dependency graph.
* When sandboxing is enabled, impure derivations can access the
network in the same way as fixed-output derivations. In relaxed
sandboxing mode, they can access the local filesystem.
Rather than having four different but very similar types of hashes, make
only one, with a tag indicating whether it corresponds to a regular of
deferred derivation.
This implies a slight logical change: The original Nix+multiple-outputs
model assumed only one hash-modulo per derivation. Adding
multiple-outputs CA derivations changed this as these have one
hash-modulo per output. This change is now treating each derivation as
having one hash modulo per output.
This obviously means that we internally loose the guaranty that
all the outputs of input-addressed derivations have the same hash
modulo. But it turns out that it doesn’t matter because there’s nothing
in the code taking advantage of that fact (and it probably shouldn’t
anyways).
The upside is that it is now much easier to work with these hashes, and
we can get rid of a lot of useless `std::visit{ overloaded`.

This avoids an infinite loop in the final test in
tests/binary-cache.sh. I think this was only not triggered previously
by accident (because we were clearing wantedOutputs in between).
LocalStore::addToStore() since
79ae9e4558 expects a regular NAR hash,
rather than a NAR hash modulo self-references. Fixes#6300.
Also, makeContentAddressed() now rewrites the entire closure (so 'nix
store make-content-addressable' no longer needs '-r'). See #6301.
1. `DerivationOutput` now as the `std::variant` as a base class. And the
variants are given hierarchical names under `DerivationOutput`.
In 8e0d0689be @matthewbauer and I
didn't know a better idiom, and so we made it a field. But this sort
of "newtype" is anoying for literals downstream.
Since then we leaned the base class, inherit the constructors trick,
e.g. used in `DerivedPath`. Switching to use that makes this more
ergonomic, and consistent.
2. `store-api.hh` and `derivations.hh` are now independent.
In bcde5456cc I swapped the dependency,
but I now know it is better to just keep on using incomplete types as
much as possible for faster compilation and good separation of
concerns.
Before the change garbage collector was not considering
`.drv` and outputs as alive even if configuration says otherwise.
As a result `nix store gc --dry-run` could visit (and parse)
`.drv` files multiple times (worst case it's quadratic).
It happens because `alive` set was populating only runtime closure
without regard for actual configuration. The change fixes it.
Benchmark: my system has about 139MB, 40K `.drv` files.
Performance before the change:
$ time nix store gc --dry-run
real 4m22,148s
Performance after the change:
$ time nix store gc --dry-run
real 0m14,178s
Don’t try and assume that we know the output paths when we’ve just built
with `--dry-run`. Instead make `--dry-run` follow a different code path
that won’t assume the knowledge of the output paths at all.
Fix#6275
Before the change on a system with `auto-optimise-store = true`:
$ nix store gc --verbose --max 1
deleted all the paths instead of one path (we requested 1 byte limit).
It happens because every file in `auto-optimise-store = true` has at
least 2 links: file itself and a link in /nix/store/.links/ directory.
The change conservatively assumes that any file that has one (as before)
or two links (assume auto-potimise mode) will free space.

This changes was taken from dynamic derivation (#4628). It` somewhat
undoes the refactors I first did for floating CA derivations, as the
benefit of hindsight + requirements of dynamic derivations made me
reconsider some things.
They aren't to consequential, but I figured they might be good to land
first, before the more profound changes @thufschmitt has in the works.
