Rebecca Turner a95c62673b Merge "Add repl-overlays" into main 2024-04-09 05:29:48 +00:00
Rebecca Turner 727b43478c Add repl-overlays
Adds a `repl-overlays` option, which specifies files that can overlay
and modify the top-level bindings in `nix repl`. For example, with the
following contents in `~/.config/nix/repl.nix`:

    info: final: prev: let
      optionalAttrs = predicate: attrs:
        if predicate
        then attrs
        else {};
    in
      optionalAttrs (prev ? legacyPackages && prev.legacyPackages ? ${info.currentSystem})
      {
        pkgs = prev.legacyPackages.${info.currentSystem};
      }

We can run `nix repl` and use `pkgs` to refer to `legacyPackages.${currentSystem}`:

    $ nix repl --repl-overlays ~/.config/nix/repl.nix nixpkgs
    Lix 2.90.0
    Type :? for help.

terru - a33c95be5b avoid markdown which the repl's :doc cannot handle
code blocks, if not surrounded by empty lines, have the language
tags (in these cases, always `nix`) show up in the output of :doc.

for example:

  nix-repl> :doc builtins.parseFlakeRef
  Synopsis: builtins.parseFlakeRef flake-ref

    Parse a flake reference, and return its exploded form.

    For example: nix builtins.parseFlakeRef
    "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/23.05?dir=lib"  evaluates to: nix { dir =
    "lib"; owner = "NixOS"; ref = "23.05"; repo = "nixpkgs"; type =
    "github"; }

is now instead:
  nix-repl> :doc builtins.parseFlakeRef
  Synopsis: builtins.parseFlakeRef flake-ref

    Parse a flake reference, and return its exploded form.

    For example:

      | builtins.parseFlakeRef "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/23.05?dir=lib"

    evaluates to:

      | { dir = "lib"; owner = "NixOS"; ref = "23.05"; repo = "nixpkgs"; type = "github"; }

(closes #225)

This is terrible UX, and frankly an eval failure should be a cache
invalidation anyway.

This removes the CachedEvalError type entirely.

jade edba570664 HOT SALE: 15% off your build times!
This was achieved by running maintainers/buildtime_report.sh on the
build directory of a meson build, then asking "why the heck is json
eating our build times", and strategically moving the json using bits
out of widely included headers.

It turns out that putting literally any metrics whatsoever into the
build had immediate and predictable results.

Results are 1382.5s frontend time -> 1175.4s frontend time, back end
time approximately invariant.

Qyriad b4d07656ff build: optionally build and install with meson
This commit adds several meson.build, which successfully build and
install Lix executables, libraries, and headers. Meson does not yet
build docs, Perl bindings, or run tests, which will be added in
following commits. As such, this commit does not remove the existing
build system, or make it the default, and also as such, this commit has
several FIXMEs and TODOs as notes for what should be done before the
existing autoconf + make buildsystem can be removed and Meson made the
default. This commit does not modify any source files.

A Meson-enabled build is also added as a Hydra job, and to
`nix flake check`.

eldritch horrors 22e3f0e987 libexpr: unbreak PosTable performance
this was mostly an inconvenience for error reporting, but fully broke
the debugger (because the debugger does *a lot* of eager position
resolution). copying the line offsets into a local and filling that
local when empty without also storing the calculated offsets back does
kind of ... not cache anything.

not doing this exposes the binding name order to the annoying
interference of parse order on symbol order, which wouldn't be so bad if
it didn't make the tests less reliable and, importantly, dependent on
linker behavior (due to primop initialization being done in static
initializer, and the order of static initializers being defined only
within a single translation unit).

eldritch horrors 86a1121d16 use byte indexed locations for PosIdx
we now keep not a table of all positions, but a table of all origins and
their sizes. position indices are now direct pointers into the virtual
concatenation of all parsed contents. this slightly reduces memory usage
and time spent in the parser, at the cost of not being able to report
positions if the total input size exceeds 4GiB. this limit is not unique
to nix though, rustc and clang also limit their input to 4GiB (although
at least clang refuses to process inputs that are larger, we will not).

this new 4GiB limit probably will not cause any problems for quite a
while, all of nixpkgs together is less than 100MiB in size and already
needs over 700MiB of memory and multiple seconds just to parse. 4GiB
worth of input will easily take multiple minutes and over 30GiB of
memory without even evaluating anything. if problems *do* arise we can
probably recover the old table-based system by adding some tracking to
Pos::Origin (or increasing the size of PosIdx outright), but for time
being this looks like more complexity than it's worth.

since we now need to read the entire input again to determine the
line/column of a position we'll make unsafeGetAttrPos slightly lazy:
mostly the set it returns is only used to determine the file of origin
of an attribute, not its exact location. the thunks do not add
measurable runtime overhead.

notably this change is necessary to allow changing the parser since
apparently nothing supports nix's very idiosyncratic line ending choice
of "anything goes", making it very hard to calculate line/column
positions in the parser (while byte offsets are very easy).

eldritch horrors c39150e6bb diagnose "unexpected EOF" at EOF
this needs a string comparison because there seems to be no other way to
get that information out of bison. usually the location info is going to
be correct (pointing at a bad token), but since EOF isn't a token as
such it'll be wrong in that this case.

this hasn't shown up much so far because a single line ending *is* a
token, so any file formatted in the usual manner (ie, ending in a line
ending) would have its EOF position reported correctly.

eldritch horrors 9cf92c012d report inherit attr errors at the duplicate name
previously we reported the error at the beginning of the binding
block (for plain inherits) or the beginning of the attr list (for
inherit-from), effectively hiding where exactly the error happened.

this also carries over to runtime positions of attributes in sets as
reported by unsafeGetAttrPos. we're not worried about this changing
observable eval behavior because it *is* marked unsafe, and the new
behavior is much more useful.

This builtin is only going to cause us problems because we are not Nix,
so let's just falsify being in the 2.18 series, since that is the

In future we might want to have a better feature detection mechanism,
for when we actually add stuff to some builtin's attr set argument. But
builtins.nixVersion is just going to be hopelessly broken and it should
be stubbed out.

eldritch horrors c26599b143 libexpr: fix elided value counting in printer
using the total-attrs-printed and total-list-items-printed counters to
calculate how many attrs were elided only works properly if no nesting
is involved. once things do nest the global counter can exceed the size
of the currently printed object, leading to unsigned wrapping and great
overestimation of elided counts. counting locally in addition to global
counts fixes this.

these are functional tests because creating these objects requires the
evaluator to not be a huge amount of code, and we also want defaults to
be tested for cli usage.

eldritch horrors 71e0114708 remove getDerivations deduplication
deduplication does not currently work fully, showing derivations
multiple times if they have different underlying values. this can happen
by selecting the same derivation twice for two different attributes of a
set, using inherit-from (which reduces to the previous), importing
nixpkgs twice, or any other number of things.

since users already have to deal with duplicates for this reason it
won't hurt to add *more* duplicates. the alternative would be to
deduplicate fully, which would drop derivations that are currently
returned and those pose a regression risk.
