The intent of the code was that if the window size cannot be determined,
it would be treated as having the maximum possible size. Because of a
missing assignment, it was actually treated as having a width of 0.
The reason the width could not be determined was because it was obtained
from stdout, not stderr, even though the printing was done to stderr.
This commit addresses both issues.
This adds a command 'nix make-content-addressable' that rewrites the
specified store paths into content-addressable paths. The advantage of
such paths is that 1) they can be imported without signatures; 2) they
can enable deduplication in cases where derivation changes do not
cause output changes (apart from store path hashes).
For example,
$ nix make-content-addressable -r nixpkgs.cowsay
rewrote '/nix/store/g1g31ah55xdia1jdqabv1imf6mcw0nb1-glibc-2.25-49' to '/nix/store/48jfj7bg78a8n4f2nhg269rgw1936vj4-glibc-2.25-49'
...
rewrote '/nix/store/qbi6rzpk0bxjw8lw6azn2mc7ynnn455q-cowsay-3.03+dfsg1-16' to '/nix/store/iq6g2x4q62xp7y7493bibx0qn5w7xz67-cowsay-3.03+dfsg1-16'
We can then copy the resulting closure to another store without
signatures:
$ nix copy --trusted-public-keys '' ---to ~/my-nix /nix/store/iq6g2x4q62xp7y7493bibx0qn5w7xz67-cowsay-3.03+dfsg1-16
In order to support self-references in content-addressable paths,
these paths are hashed "modulo" self-references, meaning that
self-references are zeroed out during hashing. Somewhat annoyingly,
this means that the NAR hash stored in the Nix database is no longer
necessarily equal to the output of "nix hash-path"; for
content-addressable paths, you need to pass the --modulo flag:
$ nix path-info --json /nix/store/iq6g2x4q62xp7y7493bibx0qn5w7xz67-cowsay-3.03+dfsg1-16 | jq -r .[].narHash

Passing `--post-build-hook /foo/bar` to a nix-* command will cause
`/foo/bar` to be executed after each build with the following
environment variables set:
DRV_PATH=/nix/store/drv-that-has-been-built.drv
OUT_PATHS=/nix/store/...build /nix/store/...build-bin /nix/store/...build-dev
This can be useful in particular to upload all the builded artifacts to
the cache (including the ones that don't appear in the runtime closure
of the final derivation or are built because of IFD).
This new feature prints the stderr/stdout output to the `nix-build`
and `nix build` client, and the output is printed in a Nix 2
compatible format:
[nix]$ ./inst/bin/nix-build ./test.nix
these derivations will be built:

To determine which seccomp filters to install, we were incorrectly
using settings.thisSystem, which doesn't denote the actual system when
--system is used.
Fixes#2791.
This reverts commit a0ef21262f. This
doesn't work in 'nix run' and nix-shell because setns() fails in
multithreaded programs, and Boehm GC mark threads are uncancellable.
Fixes#2646.
Previously, config would only be read from XDG_CONFIG_HOME. This change
allows reading config from additional directories, which enables e.g.
per-project binary caches or chroot stores with the help of direnv.
‘geteuid’ gives us the user that the command is being run as,
including in setuid modes. By using geteuid to determind id, we can
avoid the ‘sudo -i’ hack when upgrading Nix. So now, upgrading Nix on
macOS is as simple as:
$ sudo nix-channel --update
$ sudo nix-env -u
$ sudo launchctl stop org.nixos.nix-daemon
$ sudo launchctl start org.nixos.nix-daemon
or
$ sudo systemctl restart nix-daemon
This reduces memory consumption of
nix copy --from file://... --to ~/my-nix /nix/store/95cwv4q54dc6giaqv6q6p4r02ia2km35-blender-2.79
from 514 MiB to 18 MiB for an uncompressed binary cache, and from 192
MiB to 53 MiB for a bzipped binary cache. It may also be faster
because fetching can happen concurrently with decompression/writing.

Issue https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/1681.
E.g.
cannot build on 'ssh://mac1': cannot connect to 'mac1': bash: nix-store: command not found
cannot build on 'ssh://mac2': cannot connect to 'mac2': Host key verification failed.
cannot build on 'ssh://mac3': cannot connect to 'mac3': Received disconnect from 213... port 6001:2: Too many authentication failures
Authentication failed.
All ANSI sequences except color setting are now filtered out. In
particular, terminal resets (such as from NixOS VM tests) are filtered
out.
Also, fix the completely broken tab character handling.
In this mode, the following restrictions apply:
* The builtins currentTime, currentSystem and storePath throw an
error.
* $NIX_PATH and -I are ignored.
* fetchGit and fetchMercurial require a revision hash.
* fetchurl and fetchTarball require a sha256 attribute.
* No file system access is allowed outside of the paths returned by
fetch{Git,Mercurial,url,Tarball}. Thus 'nix build -f ./foo.nix' is
not allowed.
Thus, the evaluation result is completely reproducible from the
command line arguments. E.g.
nix build --pure-eval '(
let
nix = fetchGit { url = https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git; rev = "9c927de4b179a6dd210dd88d34bda8af4b575680"; };
nixpkgs = fetchGit { url = https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git; ref = "release-17.09"; rev = "66b4de79e3841530e6d9c6baf98702aa1f7124e4"; };
in (import (nix + "/release.nix") { inherit nix nixpkgs; }).build.x86_64-linux
)'
The goal is to enable completely reproducible and traceable
evaluation. For example, a NixOS configuration could be fully
described by a single Git commit hash. 'nixos-rebuild' would do
something like
nix build --pure-eval '(
(import (fetchGit { url = file:///my-nixos-config; rev = "..."; })).system
')
where the Git repository /my-nixos-config would use further fetchGit
calls or Git externals to fetch Nixpkgs and whatever other
dependencies it has. Either way, the commit hash would uniquely
identify the NixOS configuration and allow it to reproduced.
Used to determine symlink size with stat and value with readlink.
This could technically result in garbage if symlink changed between
calls. Also gets around the broken stat implementation in our
network filesystem (returns size + 1 giving a byte of garbage).
Besides being unused, this function has a bug that it will incorrectly
decode the path component Ubuntu\04016.04.2\040LTS\040amd64 as
"Ubuntu.04.2 LTS amd64" instead of "Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS amd64".
This allows <nix/fetchurl.nix> to fetch private Git/Mercurial
repositories, e.g.
import <nix/fetchurl.nix> {
url = https://edolstra@bitbucket.org/edolstra/my-private-repo/get/80a14018daed.tar.bz2;
sha256 = "1mgqzn7biqkq3hf2697b0jc4wabkqhmzq2srdymjfa6sb9zb6qs7";
}
where /etc/nix/netrc contains:
machine bitbucket.org
login edolstra
password blabla...
This works even when sandboxing is enabled.
To do: add unpacking support (i.e. fetchzip functionality).
Because config.h can #define things like _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 and not
every compilation unit includes config.h, we currently compile half of
Nix with _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 and other half with _FILE_OFFSET_BITS
unset. This causes major havoc with the Settings class on e.g. 32-bit ARM,
where different compilation units disagree with the struct layout.

That was not a fun one to debug!
This closes a long-time bug that allowed builds to hang Nix
indefinitely (regardless of timeouts) simply by doing
exec > /dev/null 2>&1; while true; do true; done
Now, on EOF, we just send SIGKILL to the child to make sure it's
really gone.
This allows other threads to install callbacks that run in a regular,
non-signal context. In particular, we can use this to signal the
downloader thread to quit.
Closes#1183.
We can now write
throw Error("file '%s' not found", path);
instead of
throw Error(format("file '%s' not found") % path);
and similarly
printError("file '%s' not found", path);
instead of
printMsg(lvlError, format("file '%s' not found") % path);
We were passing "p=$PATH" rather than "p=$PATH;", resulting in some
invalid shell code.
Also, construct a separate environment for the child rather than
overwriting the parent's.
The fact that queryPathInfo() is synchronous meant that we needed a
thread for every concurrent binary cache lookup, even though they end
up being handled by the same download thread. Requiring hundreds of
threads is not a good idea. So now there is an asynchronous version of
queryPathInfo() that takes a callback function to process the
result. Similarly, enqueueDownload() now takes a callback rather than
returning a future.
Thus, a command like
nix path-info --store https://cache.nixos.org/ -r /nix/store/slljrzwmpygy1daay14kjszsr9xix063-nixos-16.09beta231.dccf8c5
that returns 4941 paths now takes 1.87s using only 2 threads (the main
thread and the downloader thread). (This is with a prewarmed
CloudFront.)
