1511f01351 docker: update to Nix 1.11.14
- Use the latest Nix version 1.11.14.

- Attempts to download the Nix installation tarball from http://nixos.org
  redirect to https these days, which wget doesn't support unless OpenSSL is
  available.

- Use addgroup and adduser commands to create the Nix build users.

- Link the Nix profile script into /etc/profile.d, where it's run
  automatically.

- Dropped installation of bash and tar. Neither tool is essential for running
  Nix.

Use the command "docker build -t nix . && docker run -it --rm nix sh -"
to build and run the Nix docker container.

d41c5eb13f Add command "nix why-depends"
This command shows why a package has another package in its runtime
closure. For example, to see why VLC has libdrm.dev in its closure:

  $ nix why-depends nixpkgs.vlc nixpkgs.libdrm.dev
  /nix/store/g901z9pcj0n5yy5n6ykxk3qm4ina1d6z-vlc-2.2.5.1:
    lib/libvlccore.so.8.0.0: …nfig:/nix/store/405lmx6jl8lp0ad1vrr6j498chrqhz8g-libdrm-2.4.75-d…

  /nix/store/s3nm7kd8hlcg0facn2q1ff2n7wrwdi2l-mesa-noglu-17.0.7-dev:
    nix-support/propagated-native-build-inputs: …-dev /nix/store/405lmx6jl8lp0ad1vrr6j498chrqhz8g-libdrm-2.4.75-d…

Thus, VLC's lib/libvlccore.so.8.0.0 as well as mesa-noglu's
nix-support/propagated-native-build-inputs cause the dependency.

88e6bb76de Communicate the structured log FD to builders
Since we may use a dedicated file descriptor in the future, this
allows us to change it. So builders can do

  if [[ -n $NIX_LOG_FD ]]; then
    echo "@nix { message... }" >&$NIX_LOG_FD

Add automatic garbage collection
Nix can now automatically run the garbage collector during builds or
while adding paths to the store. The option "min-free = <bytes>"
specifies that Nix should run the garbage collector whenever free
space in the Nix store drops below <bytes>. It will then delete
garbage until "max-free" bytes are available.

Garbage collection during builds is asynchronous; running builds are
not paused and new builds are not blocked. However, there also is a
synchronous GC run prior to the first build/substitution.

Currently, no old GC roots are deleted (as in "nix-collect-garbage
-d").

GC: Don't delete own temproots file
Since file locks are per-process rather than per-file-descriptor, the
garbage collector would always acquire a lock on its own temproots
file and conclude that it's stale.

c9857ef262 src/libmain/stack.cc: fix 'ucontext' usage on glibc-2.26
Build fails as:

$ make
  CXX    src/libmain/stack.o
src/libmain/stack.cc: In function 'void nix::sigsegvHandler(int, siginfo_t*, void*)':
src/libmain/stack.cc:21:21: error: 'ucontext' was not declared in this scope
     sp = (char *) ((ucontext *) ctx)->uc_mcontext.gregs[REG_RSP];
                     ^~~~~~~~
src/libmain/stack.cc:21:21: note: suggested alternative: 'ucontext_t'
     sp = (char *) ((ucontext *) ctx)->uc_mcontext.gregs[REG_RSP];
                     ^~~~~~~~
                     ucontext_t

It's caused by upstream rename:
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=commitdiff;h=251287734e89a52da3db682a8241eb6bccc050c9

which basically changes
    typedef struct ucontext {} ucontext_t;
to
    typedef struct ucontext_t {} ucontext_t;

The change uses ucontext_t.

Call queryMissing() prior to building
Without this, substitute info is fetched sequentially, which is
superslow. In the old UI (e.g. nix-build), we call printMissing(),
which calls queryMissing(), thereby preheating the binary cache
cache. But the new UI doesn't do that.

nix run: Add some flags for clearing/keeping the environment
This is useful for testing commands in isolation.

For example,

  $ nix run nixpkgs.geeqie -i -k DISPLAY -k XAUTHORITY -c geeqie

runs geeqie in an empty environment, except for $DISPLAY and
$XAUTHORITY.

nix run: Allow passing a command to execute
E.g.

  nix run nixpkgs.hello -c hello --greeting Hallo

Note that unlike "nix-shell --command", no quoting of arguments is
necessary.

"-c" (short for "--command") cannot be combined with "--" because they
both consume all remaining arguments. But since installables shouldn't
start with a dash, this is unlikely to cause problems.

nix run: Fix chroot execution
Running "nix run" with a diverted store, e.g.

  $ nix run --store local?root=/tmp/nix nixpkgs.hello

stopped working when Nix became multithreaded, because
unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER) doesn't work in multithreaded processes. The
obvious solution is to terminate all other threads first, but 1) there
is no way to terminate Boehm GC marker threads; and 2) it appears that
the kernel has a race where unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER) will still fail for
some indeterminate amount of time after joining other threads.

So instead, "nix run" will now exec() a single-threaded helper ("nix
__run_in_chroot") that performs the actual unshare()/chroot()/exec().
