Why not 'nix help stores'? Well, 'nix help <arg>' already means 'show

16db8dc96f Open slave pseudoterminal before CLONE_NEWUSER
Otherwise, when running as root and user namespaces are enabled,
opening the slave fails with EPERM.

Fixes "opening pseudoterminal slave: Permission denied" followed by a
hang (https://hydra.nixos.org/build/213104244), and "error: getting
sandbox mount namespace: No such file or directory" (#8072), which
happens when the child fails very quickly and consequently reading
/proc/<child>/ns fails.

c536e00c9d Move pseudoterminal slave open to child
Hopefully this fixes "unexpected EOF" failures on macOS
(#3137, #3605, #7242, #7702).

The problem appears to be that under some circumstances, macOS
discards the output written to the slave side of the
pseudoterminal. Hence the parent never sees the "sandbox initialized"
message from the child, even though it succeeded. The conditions are:

* The child finishes very quickly. That's why this bug is likely to
  trigger in nix-env tests, since that uses a builtin builder. Adding
  a short sleep before the child exits makes the problem go away.

* The parent has closed its duplicate of the slave file
  descriptor. This shouldn't matter, since the child has a duplicate
  as well, but it does. E.g. moving the close to the bottom of
  startBuilder() makes the problem go away. However, that's not a
  solution because it would make Nix hang if the child dies before
  sending the "sandbox initialized" message.

* The system is under high load. E.g. "make installcheck -j16" makes
  the issue pretty reproducible, while it's very rare under "make
  installcheck -j1".

As a fix/workaround, we now open the pseudoterminal slave in the
child, rather than the parent. This removes the second condition
(i.e. the parent no longer needs to close the slave fd) and I haven't
been able to reproduce the "unexpected EOF" with this.

4f3a4b732c Make findRuntimeRoots() more resilient to disappearing processes
I saw this random failure in https://hydra.nixos.org/build/211811692:

  error: opening /proc/15307/fd: No such process

while running nix-collect-garbage in a readfile-context.sh. This is
because we're not handling ESRCH errors reading /proc/<pid>/fd. So
just move the read inside the try/catch where we do handle it.

Display progress when running copyPaths (nix copy)
`nix copy` operations did not show progress. This is quite confusing.

Add a `progressSink` which displays the progress during `copyPaths`,
pretty much copied from `copyStorePath`.

7bfed34367 Fix crash/hang with CA derivations
The curl download can outlive DrvOutputSubstitutionGoal (if some other
error occurs), so at shutdown setting the promise to an exception will
fail because 'this' is no longer valid in the callback. This can
manifest itself as a segfault, "corrupted double-linked list" or hang.

Treat empty env var paths as unset
We make sure the env var paths are actually set (ie. not "") before
sending them to the canonicalization function. If we forget to do so,
the user will end up facing a puzzled failed assertion internal error.

We issue a non-failing warning as a stop-gap measure. We could want to
revisit this to issue a detailed failing error message in the future.

f86f2b973f Always set valid in path-info --json output
Currently the valid key is only present when the path is invalid, which
makes checking path validity more complex than it should be. With this
change, the valid key can always be used to check if a path is valid

buildenv: throw BuildEnvFileConflictError with more context
At the moment an Error is thrown that only holds an error message
regarding `nix-env` and `nix profile`. These tools make use of
builtins.buildEnv, but buildEnv is also used in other places. These
places are unrelated to Nix profiles, so the error shouldn't mention
these tools.

This generic error is now BuildEnvFileConflictError, which holds more
contextual information about the files that were conflicting while
building the environment.

5978ceb271 Fix building with GCC 9
Nixpkgs on aarch64-linux is currently stuck on GCC 9
(https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/208412) and using gcc11Stdenv
doesn't work either.

So use c++2a instead of c++20 for now. Unfortunately this means we
can't use some C++20 features for now (like std::span).

Follow XDG Base Directory standard
2023-02-10 18:05:50 +01:00
Alexander Bantyev
2384d36083
A setting to follow XDG Base Directory standard
XDG Base Directory is a standard for locations for storing various
files. Nix has a few files which seem to fit in the standard, but
currently use a custom location directly in the user's ~, polluting
it:

- ~/.nix-profile
- ~/.nix-defexpr
- ~/.nix-channels

This commit adds a config option (use-xdg-base-directories) to follow
the XDG spec and instead use the following locations:

- $XDG_STATE_HOME/nix/profile
- $XDG_STATE_HOME/nix/defexpr
- $XDG_STATE_HOME/nix/channels

If $XDG_STATE_HOME is not set, it is assumed to be ~/.local/state.
