This fixes a use-after-free bug:
1. s = new EvalState();
2. callFlake()
3. static vCallFlake now references s
4. delete s;
5. s2 = new EvalState();
6. callFlake()
7. static vCallFlake still references s
8. crash
Nix 2.3 did not have a problem with recreating EvalState.
This fixes a class of crashes and introduces ptr<T> to make the
code robust against this failure mode going forward.
Thanks regnat for the idea of a ref<T> without overhead!

“packages” was probably meant to be “packages.${system}.” but that
is already listed in `getDefaultFlakeAttrPathPrefixes` in `installables`,
which is probably why no one noticed it was broken.
It currently fails with the following error:
error: flake 'git+file://…' does not provide attribute 'devShells.x86_64-linuxhaskell', 'packages.x86_64-linux.haskell', 'legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.haskell' or 'haskell'
Use `$(libdir)` while installing .pc files looks like a more generic
solution. For example, it will work for distributions like RHEL or
Fedora where .pc files are installed in `/usr/lib64/pkgconfig`.
This replaces the O(n) search complexity in our insert code with a
lookup of O(log n). It also makes removing waitees easier as we can use
the extract method provided by the set class.
Previously the code ensures that the isBase32 array would only be
initialised once in a single-threaded context. If two threads happen to
call the function before the initialisation was completed both of them
would have completed the initialization step. This allowed for a
race-condition where one thread might be done with the initialization
but the other thread sets all the fields to false again. For a brief
moment the base32 detection would then produce false-negatives.
`nix-shell --pure` when applied to a non stdenv derivation doesn't seem
to clear the PATH. It expects the stdenv/setup file to do so.
This adds an explicit `unset PATH` by nix-build.cc (nix-shell) itself so
that it's not reliant on stdenv/setup anymore.
This does not break impure nix-shell since the PATH is persisted as the
variable `p` prior in the bash rcfile
fixes#5092
Previously, despite having a boolean that tracked initialization, the
decode characters have been "calculated" every single time a base64
string was being decoded.
With this change we only initialize the decode array once in a
thread-safe manner.
The experimental features are, well, experimental, and shouldn’t be
carelessly and transparently enabled.
Besides, some (`ca-derivations` at least) need to be enabled at startup
in order to work properly.
So it’s better to just require that daemon be started with the right
`experimental-features` option.
