The tmpDirInSandbox is different when in sandboxed vs. non-sandboxed.
Since we don’t know ahead of time here whether sandboxing is enabled,
we need to reset all of the env vars we’ve set previously. This fixes
the issue encountered in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/70856.
POSIX file locks are essentially incompatible with multithreading. BSD
locks have much saner semantics. We need this now that there can be
multiple concurrent LocalStore::buildPaths() invocations.
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:

startProcess does not appear to send the exit code to the helper
correctly. Not sure why this is, but it is probably safe to just
fallback on all sandbox errors.
When sandbox-fallback = true (the default), the Nix builder will fall
back to disabled sandbox mode when the kernel doesn’t allow users to
set it up. This prevents hard errors from occuring in tricky places,
especially the initial installer. To restore the previous behavior,
users can set:
sandbox-fallback = false
in their /etc/nix/nix.conf configuration.
Some kernels disable "unpriveleged user namespaces". This is
unfortunate, but we can still use mount namespaces. Anyway, since each
builder has its own nixbld user, we already have most of the benefits
of user namespaces.
If multiple builds with fail with different errors it will be reflected
in the status code.
eg.
103 => timeout + hash mismatch
105 => timeout + check mismatch
106 => hash mismatch + check mismatch
107 => timeout + hash mismatch + check mismatch
The default nsswitch.conf(5) file in most distros can handle many
different things including host name, user names, groups, etc. In Nix,
we want to limit the amount of impurities that come from these things.
As a result, we should only allow nss to be used for gethostbyname(3)
and getservent(3).

This allows many programs (e.g. gcc, clang, cmake) to print colorized
log output (assuming $TERM is set to a value like "xterm").
There are other ways to get colors, in particular setting
CLICOLOR_FORCE, but they're less widely supported and can break
programs that parse tool output.
The value of useChroot is not set yet in the constructor, resulting in
hash rewriting being enabled in certain cases where it should not be.
Fixes#2801
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.
Use the same output ordering and format everywhere.
This is such a common issue that we trade the single-line error message for
more readability.
Old message:
```

```

In structured-attributes derivations, you can now specify per-output
checks such as:
outputChecks."out" = {
# The closure of 'out' must not be larger than 256 MiB.
maxClosureSize = 256 * 1024 * 1024;
# It must not refer to C compiler or to the 'dev' output.
disallowedRequisites = [ stdenv.cc "dev" ];
};
outputChecks."dev" = {
# The 'dev' output must not be larger than 128 KiB.
maxSize = 128 * 1024;
};
Also fixed a bug in allowedRequisites that caused it to ignore
self-references.
This is primarily because Derivation::{can,will}BuildLocally() depends
on attributes like preferLocalBuild and requiredSystemFeatures, but it
can't handle them properly because it doesn't have access to the
structured attributes.
E.g. __noChroot and allowedReferences now work correctly. We also now
check that the attribute type is correct. For instance, instead of
allowedReferences = "out";
you have to write
allowedReferences = [ "out" ];
Fixes#2453.
Allow global config settings to be defined in multiple Config
classes. For example, this means that libutil can have settings and
evaluator settings can be moved out of libstore. The Config classes
are registered in a new GlobalConfig class to which config files
etc. are applied.
Relevant to https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/2009 in that it
removes the need for ad hoc handling of useCaseHack, which was the
underlying cause of that issue.
Don't bind-mount these to themselves,
mount them into the chroot directory.
Fixes pty issues when using sandbox on CentOS 7.4.
(build of perlPackages.IOTty fails before this change)
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.
This allows building armv[67]l-linux derivations on compatible aarch64
machines. Failure to add the architecture may result from missing
hardware support, in which case we can't run 32-bit binaries and don't
need to restrict them with seccomp anyway,
This was caused by derivations with 'allowSubstitutes = false'. Such
derivations will be built locally. However, if there is another
SubstitionGoal that has the output of the first derivation in its
closure, then the path will be simultaneously built and substituted.
There was a check to catch this situation (via pathIsLockedByMe()),
but it no longer worked reliably because substitutions are now done in
another thread. (Thus the comment 'It can't happen between here and
the lockPaths() call below because we're not allowing multi-threading'
was no longer valid.)
The fix is to handle the path already being locked in both
SubstitutionGoal and DerivationGoal.
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.
This is needed by nixos-install, which uses the Nix store on the
installation CD as a substituter. We don't want to disable signature
checking entirely because substitutes from cache.nixos.org should
still be checked. So now we can pas "local?trusted=1" to mark only the
Nix store in /nix as not requiring signatures.
Fixes#1819.
Instead, if a fixed-output derivation produces has an incorrect output
hash, we now unconditionally move the outputs to the path
corresponding with the actual hash and register it as valid. Thus,
after correcting the hash in the Nix expression (e.g. in a fetchurl
call), the fixed-output derivation doesn't have to be built again.
It would still be good to have a command for reporting the actual hash
of a fixed-output derivation (instead of throwing an error), but
"nix-build --hash" didn't do that.
This will allow bind and connect to 127.0.0.1, which can reduce purity/
security (if you're running a vulnerable service on localhost) but is
also needed for a ton of test suites, so I'm leaving it turned off by
default but allowing certain derivations to turn it on as needed.
It also allows DNS resolution of arbitrary hostnames but I haven't found
a way to avoid that. In principle I'd just want to allow resolving
localhost but that doesn't seem to be possible.
I don't think this belongs under `build-use-sandbox = relaxed` because we
want it on Hydra and I don't think it's the end of the world.
This makes it slightly more manageable to see at a glance what in a
build's sandbox profile is unique to the build and what is standard. Also
a first step to factoring more of our Darwin logic into scheme functions
that will allow us a bit more flexibility. And of course less of that
nasty codegen in C++! 😀
I needed this to test ACL/xattr removal in
canonicalisePathMetaData(). Might also be useful if you need to build
old Nixpkgs that doesn't have the required patches to remove
setuid/setgid creation.
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
fi
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").
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.
In particular, drop the "build-" and "gc-" prefixes which are
pointless. So now you can say
nix build --no-sandbox
instead of
nix build --no-build-use-sandbox
