eldritch horrors e6cd67591b libexpr: rewrite the parser with pegtl instead of flex/bison
this gives about 20% performance improvements on pure parsing. obviously
it will be less on full eval, but depending on how much parsing is to be
done (e.g. including hackage-packages.nix or not) it's more like 4%-10%.

this has been tested (with thousands of core hours of fuzzing) to ensure
that the ASTs produced by the new parser are exactly the same as the old
one would have produced. error messages will change (sometimes by a lot)
and are not yet perfect, but we would rather leave this as is for later.

test results for running only the parser (excluding the variable binding
code) in a tight loop with inputs and parameters as given are promising:

  - 40% faster on lix's package.nix at 10000 iterations
  - 1.3% faster on nixpkgs all-packages.nix at 1000 iterations
  - equivalent on all of nixpkgs concatenated at 100 iterations
    (excluding invalid files, each file surrounded with parens)

more realistic benchmarks are somewhere in between the extremes, parsing
once again getting the largest uplift. other realistic workloads improve
by a few percentage points as well, notably system builds are 4% faster.

jade 3e151d4d77 Revert "libfetchers: make attribute / URL query handling consistent"
This reverts commit 35eec921af.

Reason for revert: Regressed nix-eval-jobs, and it appears to be this change is buggy/missing a case. It just needs another pass.

Code causing the problem in n-e-j, when invoked with `nix-eval-jobs --flake '.#hydraJobs'`:

```
n-e-j/tests/assets » ../../build/src/nix-eval-jobs --meta --workers 1 --flake .#hydraJobs
warning: unknown setting 'trusted-users'
warning: `--gc-roots-dir' not specified
error: unsupported Git input attribute 'dir'
error: worker error: error: unsupported Git input attribute 'dir'
```

```
  nix::Value *vRoot = [&]() {
        if (args.flake) {
            auto [flakeRef, fragment, outputSpec] =
                nix::parseFlakeRefWithFragmentAndExtendedOutputsSpec(
                    args.releaseExpr, nix::absPath("."));
            nix::InstallableFlake flake{
                {}, state, std::move(flakeRef), fragment, outputSpec,
                {}, {},    args.lockFlags};

            return flake.toValue(*state).first;
        } else {
            return releaseExprTopLevelValue(*state, autoArgs, args);
        }
    }();
```

Inspecting the program behaviour reveals that `dir` was in fact set in the URL going into the fetcher. This is in turn because unlike in the case changed in this commit, it was not erased before handing it to libfetchers, which is probably just a mistake.

vigress8 c7af89c797 change shebangs of all .sh scripts to bash
On operating systems where /bin/sh is not Bash, some scripts are invalid
because of bashisms, and building Lix fails with errors like this:
`render-manpage.sh: 3: set: Illegal option -o pipefail`
This modifies all scripts that use a `/bin/sh` shebang to `/usr/bin/env
bash`, including currently POSIX-compliant ones, to prevent any future
confusion.

Robert Hensing d86009bd76 Add build-dir setting, clean up default TMPDIR handling
This is a squash of upstream PRs #10303, #10312 and #10883.

fix: Treat empty TMPDIR as unset

Fixes an instance of

    nix: src/libutil/util.cc:139: nix::Path nix::canonPath(PathView, bool): Assertion `path != ""' failed.

... which I've been getting in one of my shells for some reason.
I have yet to find out why TMPDIR was empty, but it's no reason for
Nix to break.

(cherry picked from commit c3fb2aa1f9d1fa756dac38d3588c836c5a5395dc)

fix: Treat empty XDG_RUNTIME_DIR as unset

See preceding commit. Not observed in the wild, but is sensible
and consistent with TMPDIR behavior.

this is only used in one place, and only to set a nicer error message on
EndOfFile. the only caller that actually *catches* this exception should
provide an error message in that catch block rather than forcing support
for setting error message so deep into the stack. copyStorePath is never
called outside of PathSubstitutionGoal anyway, which catches everything.

libfetchers: make attribute / URL query handling consistent
The original idea was to fix lix#174, but for a user friendly solution,
I figured that we'd need more consistency:

* Invalid query params will cause an error, just like invalid
  attributes. This has the following two consequences:

  * The `?dir=`-param from flakes will be removed before the URL to be
    fetched is passed to libfetchers.

  * The tarball fetcher doesn't allow URLs with custom query params
    anymore. I think this was questionable anyways given that an
    arbitrary set of query params was silently removed from the URL you
    wanted to fetch. The correct way is to use an attribute-set
    with a key `url` that contains the tarball URL to fetch.

  * Same for the git & mercurial fetchers: in that case it doesn't even
    matter though: both fetchers added unused query params to the URL
    that's passed from the input scheme to the fetcher (`url2` in the code).
    It turns out that this was never used since the query parameters were
    erased again in `getActualUrl`.

* Validation happens for both attributes and URLs. Previously, a lot of
  fetchers validated e.g. refs/revs only when specified in a URL and
  the validity of attribute names only in `inputFromAttrs`.

  Now, all the validation is done in `inputFromAttrs` and `inputFromURL`
  constructs attributes that will be passed to `inputFromAttrs`.

* Accept all attributes as URL query parameters. That also includes
  lesser used ones such as `narHash`.

  And "output" attributes like `lastModified`: these could be declared
  already when declaring inputs as attribute rather than URL. Now the
  behavior is at least consistent.

  Personally, I think we should differentiate in the future between
  "fetched input" (basically the attr-set that ends up in the lock-file)
  and "unfetched input" earlier: both inputFrom{Attrs,URL} entrypoints
  are probably OK for unfetched inputs, but for locked/fetched inputs
  a custom entrypoint should be used. Then, the current entrypoints
  wouldn't have to allow these attributes anymore.

alois31 aa00a5a8c9 libfetchers: represent unfetched submodules consistently
Unfetched submodules are included as empty directories in archives, so they end
up as such in the store when fetched in clean mode. Make sure the same happens
in dirty mode too. Fortunately, they are already correctly represented in the
ls-files output, so we just need to make sure to include the empty directory in
our filter.

Followup to https://gerrit.lix.systems/c/lix/+/1417 to ensure that this

It turns out this problem is less alarming than initially thought
because it only applies to the testsuite in a non-default mode.

Mario Rodas a05de58ebd tests: fix daemon version in isDaemonNewer function
Since ad8a4b380e, the version printer returns "nix (Lix, like Nix) 2.x",
hence the `daemonVersion` was being set to the string "like".

Using `compareVersions` with a letter compares them lexicographically:

   builtins.compareVersions "like" "2.12pre20230103"  // => -1
   builtins.compareVersions "like" "2.16.0"           // => -1

This caused that `isDaemonNewer` always returned 1, falsy in Bash terms.
Therefore, the test suite skipped those tests where they use it.

Fixes lix-project/lix#324

nix3-build: show all FOD errors with --keep-going
Basically I'd expect the same behavior as with `nix-build`, i.e.
with `--keep-going` the hash-mismatch error of each failing
fixed-output derivation is shown.

The approach is derived from `Store::buildPaths` (`entry-point.cc`):
instead of throwing the first build-result, check if there are any build
errors and if so, display all of them and throw after that.

Unfortunately, the BuildResult struct doesn't have an `ErrorInfo`
(there's a FIXME for that at least), so I have to construct my own here.
This is a rather cheap bugfix and I decided against touching too many
parts of libstore for that (also I don't know if that's in line with the
ongoing refactoring work).

Closes lix-project/lix#302

The fix for the Darwin vulnerability in ecdbc3b207
also broke setting `__sandboxProfile` when `sandbox=relaxed` or
`sandbox=false`. This cppnix change fixes `sandbox=relaxed` and

Fix failing darwin tests
Some tests were failing on darwin,
if the auto-allocate-uids featrure was enabled.
This was because AAU on darwin works by setuid-ing as a non-existent
user, so the tests that were relying on `whoami` were failing.

In the case of trusted-users we fall back to printing the user id,
which is already handled gracefully in the daemon code - i.e. when
a user does not exist or for some other reason looking up their
username is not possible, the daemon falls back to searching for their
uid inside the trusted-users list.

When whoami is used to print the username for other purpose,
we default to printing nixbld.

This reverts commit a8b3d777fb.

This undoes the revert of PR#6621, which allows nested `follows`, i.e.

    {
      inputs = {
        foo.url = "github:bar/foo";
        foo.inputs.bar.inputs.nixpkgs = "nixpkgs";
      };
    }

does the expected thing now. This is useful to avoid the 1000 instances
of nixpkgs problem without having each flake in the dependency tree to
expose all of its transitive dependencies for modification.

This was in fact part of Nix before and the C++ changes applied w/o
conflicts. However, it got reverted then because people didn't want to
merge lazy-trees against it which was supposed to be merged soon back in
October 2022.

Théophane Hufschmitt 8458d98b27 Rename nix show-config to nix config show
Part of #7672

My main motivation is to be able to use `nix.checkConfig`[1]. This
doesn't work with Lix currently since the module uses `nix show-config`
if the Nix version is <2.20pre and `nix config show` otherwise. I think
this is the only instance where nixpkgs checks for which Nix commands
exist that affects us now, so I figured we could just perform the rename
here as well[2] and still provide the current version number[3].

I don't have a strong opinion on whether to deprecate `nix show-config`,
the warning is added there automatically.

[1] https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/options.html#opt-nix.checkConfig
[2] I should add that I don't use the "official" ways of installing Lix
    because using the flake directly and callPackaging it seemed to fit
    better into my workflow: I already have a little mess to make
    sure Hydra from the flake uses the correct pkgs.nix and I didn't
    want to complicate it further while keeping a single package-set I
    can build in CI. Don't get me wrong, I think such a module for a
    quick-start is very important, just giving context on why I bother
    in the first place :)
[3] When we go public, I think it's worth considering to add support in
    nixpkgs itself for Lix.

Artemis Tosini c03de0df62 gc: Find roots using libproc on Darwin
Previously, the garbage collector found runtime roots on Darwin by
shelling out to `lsof -n -w -F n` then parsing the result.
However, this requires an lsof binary and can be extremely slow.

The official Apple lsof returns in a reasonable amount of time,
about 250ms in my tests, but the lsof packaged in nixpkgs is quite slow,
taking about 40 seconds to run the command.

Using libproc directly is about the same speed as Apple lsof,
and allows us to reënable several tests that were disabled on Darwin.

Adds a `repl-overlays` option, which specifies files that can overlay

following contents in `~/.config/nix/repl.nix`:

    info: final: prev: let
      optionalAttrs = predicate: attrs:
        if predicate
        then attrs

      {
        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

Qyriad 038daad218 meson: implement functional tests
Functional tests can be run with
`meson test -C build --suite installcheck`.

Notably, functional tests must be run *after* running `meson install`
(Lix's derivation runs the installcheck suite in installCheckPhase so it
does this correctly), due to some quirks between Meson and the testing
system.

As far as I can tell the functional tests are meant to be run after
installing anyway, but unfortunately I can't transparently make
`meson test --suite installcheck` depend on the install targets.

The script that runs the functional tests, meson/run-test.py, checks
that `meson install` has happened and fails fast with a (hopefully)
helpful error message if any of the functional tests are run before
installing.

Tom Bereknyei 4494f9097f feat: notation to refer to no attribute search prefix
An attrPath prefix of "." indicates no need to try default attrPath prefixes. For example `nixpkgs#legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.ERROR` searches through

```
trying flake output attribute 'packages.x86_64-linux.legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.ERROR'
using cached attrset attribute ''
trying flake output attribute 'legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.ERROR'
using cached attrset attribute 'legacyPackages.x86_64-linux'
trying flake output attribute 'legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.ERROR'
using cached attrset attribute 'legacyPackages.x86_64-linux'
```

And there is no way to specify that one does not want the automatic
search behavior. Now one can specify
`nixpkgs#.legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.ERROR` to only refer to the rooted
attribute path without any default injection of attribute search path or
system.

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.

even outside the input altogether).

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.

diagnose attr duplication at the path the duplication was detected, not
at the path the current attribute wanted to place. doing the latter is

set to a non-attrset in one binding and a (potentially implied) attrset
in another binding.

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 08252967a8 libexpr: Support structured error classes
While preparing PRs like #9753, I've had to change error messages in
dozens of code paths. It would be nice if instead of

    EvalError("expected 'boolean' but found '%1%'", showType(v))

we could write

    TypeError(v, "boolean")

or similar. Then, changing the error message could be a mechanical
refactor with the compiler pointing out places the constructor needs to
be changed, rather than the error-prone process of grepping through the
codebase. Structured errors would also help prevent the "same" error
from having multiple slightly different messages, and could be a first
step towards error codes / an error index.

This PR reworks the exception infrastructure in `libexpr` to
support exception types with different constructor signatures than
`BaseError`. Actually refactoring the exceptions to use structured data
will come in a future PR (this one is big enough already, as it has to
touch every exception in `libexpr`).

The core design is in `eval-error.hh`. Generally, errors like this:

    state.error("'%s' is not a string", getAttrPathStr())
      .debugThrow<TypeError>()

are transformed like this:

    state.error<TypeError>("'%s' is not a string", getAttrPathStr())
      .debugThrow()

The type annotation has moved from `ErrorBuilder::debugThrow` to
`EvalState::error`.

eldritch horrors 512c1f05c3 Unify and refactor value printing
Previously, there were two mostly-identical value printers -- one in
`libexpr/eval.cc` (which didn't force values) and one in
`libcmd/repl.cc` (which did force values and also printed ANSI color
codes).

This PR unifies both of these printers into `print.cc` and provides a
`PrintOptions` struct for controlling the output, which allows for
toggling whether values are forced, whether repeated values are tracked,
and whether ANSI color codes are displayed.

Additionally, `PrintOptions` allows tuning the maximum number of
attributes, list items, and bytes in a string that will be displayed;
this makes it ideal for contexts where printing too much output (e.g.
all of Nixpkgs) is distracting. (As requested by @roberth in
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/9554#issuecomment-1845095735)

Please read the tests for example output.

Future work:
- It would be nice to provide this function as a builtin, perhaps
  `builtins.toStringDebug` -- a printing function that never fails would
  be useful when debugging Nix code.
- It would be nice to support customizing `PrintOptions` members on the
  command line, e.g. `--option to-string-max-attrs 1000`.
