move uninstall instructions to a separate page
2023-04-28 12:41:09 +02:00
Valentin Gagarin f8620758aa display documentation on manifest files separately
it's probably better not to show the manifest file documentation in the
command-specific pages, because these are implementation details that are not really practically useful.

this means no additional hassle for building the manual, but clutters
the table of contents a bit.

Valentin Gagarin 9b2a4a4729 move uninstall instructions to a separate page
placed in a subsection of the binary install, the instructions are hard
to find. putting them in a separate page that is shown in the table of
contents should make it easier for users to find what they need when
they need it.

Fix shutdown behavior and resource management for recursive-nix on macOS
Previously, we relied on the `shutdown()` function to terminate `accept()`
calls on a listening socket. However, this approach did not work on macOS as
the waiting `accept()` call is not considered a connected socket, resulting in
an `ENOTCONN` error. Instead, we now close the listening socket to terminate
the `accept()` call.

Additionally, we fixed a resource management issue where we set the
`daemonSocket` variable to -1, triggering resource cleanup and causing the
`stopDaemon` function to be called twice. This resulted in errors as the socket
was already closed by the time the second `stopDaemon` call was made. Instead of
setting `daemonSocket` to -1, we now release the socket using the `release()`
method on a unique pointer. This properly transfers ownership and allows for
correct resource cleanup.

These changes ensure proper behavior and resource management for the
recursive-nix feature on macOS.

John Ericson 85f0cdc370 Use std::set<StringContextElem> not PathSet for string contexts
Motivation

`PathSet` is not correct because string contexts have other forms
(`Built` and `DrvDeep`) that are not rendered as plain store paths.
Instead of wrongly using `PathSet`, or "stringly typed" using
`StringSet`, use `std::std<StringContextElem>`.

-----

In support of this change, `NixStringContext` is now defined as
`std::std<StringContextElem>` not `std:vector<StringContextElem>`. The
old definition was just used by a `getContext` method which was only
used by the eval cache. It can be deleted altogether since the types are
now unified and the preexisting `copyContext` function already suffices.

Summarizing the previous paragraph:

Old:

  - `value/context.hh`: `NixStringContext = std::vector<StringContextElem>`
  - `value.hh`: `NixStringContext Value::getContext(...)`
  - `value.hh`: `copyContext(...)`

New:

  - `value/context.hh`: `NixStringContext = std::set<StringContextElem>`
  - `value.hh`: `copyContext(...)`
----

The string representation of string context elements no longer contains
the store dir. The diff of `src/libexpr/tests/value/context.cc` should
make clear what the new representation is, so we recommend reviewing
that file first. This was done for two reasons:

Less API churn:

`Value::mkString` and friends did not take a `Store` before. But if
`NixStringContextElem::{parse, to_string}` *do* take a store (as they
did before), then we cannot have the `Value` functions use them (in
order to work with the fully-structured `NixStringContext`) without
adding that argument.

That would have been a lot of churn of threading the store, and this
diff is already large enough, so the easier and less invasive thing to
do was simply make the element `parse` and `to_string` functions not
take the `Store` reference, and the easiest way to do that was to simply
drop the store dir.

Space usage:

Dropping the `/nix/store/` (or similar) from the internal representation
will safe space in the heap of the Nix programming being interpreted. If
the heap contains many strings with non-trivial contexts, the saving
could add up to something significant.

----

The eval cache version is bumped.

The eval cache serialization uses `NixStringContextElem::{parse,
to_string}`, and since those functions are changed per the above, that
means the on-disk representation is also changed.

This is simply done by changing the name of the used for the eval cache
from `eval-cache-v4` to eval-cache-v5`.

----

To avoid some duplication `EvalCache::mkPathString` is added to abstract
over the simple case of turning a store path to a string with just that
string in the context.

Context

This PR picks up where #7543 left off. That one introduced the fully
structured `NixStringContextElem` data type, but kept `PathSet context`
as an awkward middle ground between internal `char[][]` interpreter heap
string contexts and `NixStringContext` fully parsed string contexts.

The infelicity of `PathSet context` was specifically called out during
Nix team group review, but it was agreeing that fixing it could be left
as future work. This is that future work.

A possible follow-up step would be to get rid of the `char[][]`
evaluator heap representation, too, but it is not yet clear how to do
that. To use `NixStringContextElem` there we would need to get the STL
containers to GC pointers in the GC build, and I am not sure how to do
that.

----

PR #7543 effectively is writing the inverse of a `mkPathString`,
`mkOutputString`, and one more such function for the `DrvDeep` case. I
would like that PR to have property tests ensuring it is actually the
inverse as expected.

This PR sets things up nicely so that reworking that PR to be in that
more elegant and better tested way is possible.

In other words, use a plain `ContentAddress` not

Supporting fixed output derivations with (fixed) references would be a
cool feature, but it is out of scope at this moment.
