When we check for disappeared overrides, we can get "false positives"
for follows and overrides which are defined in the dependencies of the
flake we are locking, since they are not parsed by
parseFlakeInputs. However, at that point we already know that the
overrides couldn't have possible been changed if the input itself
hasn't changed (since we check that oldLock->originalRef == *input.ref
for the input's parent). So, to prevent this, only perform this check
when it was possible that the flake changed (e.g. the flake we're
locking, or a new input, or the input has changed and mustRefetch ==
true).
This makes sure that values parsed from TOML have a proper size. Using
e.g. `double` caused issues on i686 where the size of `double` (32bit)
was too small to accommodate some values.
calling GC_malloc for each value is significantly more expensive than
allocating a bunch of values at once with GC_malloc_many. "a bunch" here
is a GC block size, ie 16KiB or less.
this gives a 1.5% performance boost when evaluating our nixos system.
tested with
nix eval --raw --impure --expr 'with import <nixpkgs/nixos> {}; system'
# on master
Time (mean ± σ): 3.335 s ± 0.007 s [User: 2.774 s, System: 0.293 s]
Range (min … max): 3.315 s … 3.347 s 50 runs
# with this change
Time (mean ± σ): 3.288 s ± 0.006 s [User: 2.728 s, System: 0.292 s]
Range (min … max): 3.274 s … 3.307 s 50 runs
This function is very useful in nixpkgs, but its implementation in Nix
itself is rather slow due to it requiring a lot of attribute set and
list appends.
Previously, when we were attempting to reuse the old lockfile
information in the computeLocks function, we have passed the parent of
the current input to the next computeLocks call. This was incorrect,
since the follows are resolved relative to the parent. This caused
issues when we tried to reuse oldLock but couldn't for some
reason (read: mustRefetch is true), in that case the follows were
resolved incorrectly.
Fix this by passing the correct parent, and adding some tests to
prevent this particular regression from happening again.

Moving arguments of the primOp into the registration structure makes it
impossible to initialize a second EvalState with the correct primOp
registration. It will end up registering all those "RegisterPrimOp"'s
with an arity of zero on all but the 2nd instance of the EvalState.
Not moving the memory will add a tiny bit of memory overhead during the
eval since we need a copy of all the argument lists of all the primOp's.
The overhead shouldn't be too bad as it is static (based on the amonut
of registered operations) and only occurs once during the interpreter
startup.
If we’re in pure eval mode, then tell that in the error message rather
than (wrongly) speaking about restricted mode.

This is not really useful on its own, but it does recover the
'infinite recursion' error message for '{ __functor = x: x; } 1', and
is more efficient in conjunction with #3718.
Fixes#5515.
- This change applies to builtins.toXML and inner workings
- Proof of concept:
```nix
let e = builtins.toXML e; in e
```
- Before:
```
$ nix-instantiate --eval poc.nix
error: infinite recursion encountered
```
- After:
```
$ nix-instantiate --eval poc.nix
error: infinite recursion encountered
at /data/github/kamadorueda/nix/poc.nix:1:9:

```
When an input follows disappears, we can't just reuse the old lock
file entries since we may be missing some required ones. Refetch the
input when this happens.
Closes https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/5289
Since 4806f2f6b0, we can't have paths with
references passed to builtins.{path,filterSource}. This prevents many cases
of those functions called on IFD outputs from working. Resolve this by
passing the references found in the original path to the added path.
