Christian Theune 934642155c @eelco's feedback: downgrade to regular float for size, remove unused function. 2016-01-06 08:25:58 +01:00
Philip Potter 4f3cf06c97 Verify TLS certificate before downloading binaries
The --insecure flag to curl tells curl not to bother checking if the TLS
certificate presented by the server actually matches the hostname
requested, and actually is issued by a trusted CA chain.  This almost
entirely negates any benefit from using TLS in the first place.

This removes the --insecure flag to ensure we actually have a secure
connection to the intended hostname before downloading binaries.

Manually tested locally within a dev-shell; was able to download
binaries from https://cache.nixos.org without issue.

[Note: --insecure was only used for fetching NARs, whose integrity is
verified by Nix anyway using the hash from the .narinfo. But if we can
fetch the .narinfo without --insecure, we can also fetch the .nar, so
there is not much point to using --insecure. --Eelco]

Fabian Schmitthenner 39d1da7b51 Better error message
Also show types when nix cannot compare values of different types.
This is also more consistent since types are already shown when comparing values of the same not comparable type.

Ilya Novoselov 80ebd60e7c Do not override environment CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS
Looks like 5a05cf4063 removed usage of
environment CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS by mistake. That change broke building
of nix on fedora core 23.

Shea Levy 14080f3e4b Use __toString when coercing sets to strings.
For example, "${{ foo = "bar"; __toString = x: x.foo; }}" evaluates
to "bar".

With this, we can delay calling functions like mkDerivation,
buildPythonPackage, etc. until we actually need a derivation, enabling
overrides and other modifications to happen by simple attribute set
update.

Eelco Dolstra 71a93a5f0e Don't allow sandbox profile except in relaxed mode
This makes Darwin consistent with Linux: Nix expressions can't break
out of the sandbox unless relaxed sandbox mode is enabled.

For the normal sandbox mode this will require fixing #759 however.

Eelco Dolstra 77ad443bd1 ~PathLocks(): Handle exceptions
Otherwise, since the call to write a "d" character to the lock file
can fail with ENOSPC, we can get an unhandled exception resulting in a

Eelco Dolstra b8258a4475 Fix regression in passAsFile
Caused by 8063fc497a. If tmpDir !=
tmpDirInSandbox (typically when there are multiple concurrent builds
with the same name), the *Path attribute would not point to an
existing file. This caused Nixpkgs' writeTextFile to write an empty
file. In particular this showed up as hanging VM builds (because it
would run an empty run-nixos-vm script and then wait for it to finish
booting).

Bjørn Forsman 65bd82d42a Clarify error message for hash mismatches (again)
This is arguably nitpicky, but I think this new formulation is even
clearer. My thinking is that it's easier to comprehend when the
calculated hash value is displayed close to the output path. (I think it
is somewhat similar to eliminating double negatives in logic
statements.)

The formulation is inspired / copied from the OpenEmbedded build tool,
bitbake.

Eelco Dolstra 8063fc497a Use deterministic $TMPDIR in sandbox
Rather than using $<host-TMPDIR>/nix-build-<drvname>-<number>, the
temporary directory is now always /tmp/nix-build-<drvname>-0. This
improves bitwise-exact reproducibility for builds that store $TMPDIR
in their build output. (Of course, those should still be fixed...)

Danny Wilson 69b9d8fdbd Use DT_UNKNOWN when dirent d_type extension is not supported.
edolstra:
“…since callers of readDirectory have to handle the possibility of
 DT_UNKNOWN anyway, and we don't want to do a stat call for every
 directory entry unless it's really needed.”

Eelco Dolstra c0d4173263 Set default binary-caches-parallel-connections to 25
Some benchmarking suggested this as a good value. Running

  $ benchmark -f ... -t 25 -- sh -c 'rm -f /nix/var/nix/binary-cache*; nix-store -r /nix/store/x5z8a2yvz8h6ccmhwrwrp9igg03575jg-nixos-15.09.git.5fd87e1M.drv --dry-run --option binary-caches-parallel-connections <N>'

gave the following mean elapsed times for these values of N:

N=10:  3.3541
N=20:  2.9320
N=25:  2.6690
N=30:  2.9417
N=50:  3.2021
N=100: 3.5718
N=150: 4.2079

Memory usage is also reduced (N=150 used 186 MB, N=25 only 68 MB).

Closes #708.

Eelco Dolstra 27d6ed5c68 Remove sandboxProfile from release.nix
There is really no conceivable reason why building Nix would need
