We don't want to rely on how C assigns numbers for enums in the wire
format. Sure, this is totally determined by the ABI, but it obscures the
code and makes it harder to safely change the enum definition (should we
need to) without accidentally breaking the wire format.
Do this instead of an unchecked cast
I redid this to use the serialisation framework (including a unit test),
but I am keeping the reference to credit Jade for spotting the issue.

This was accidentally removed in
e989c83b44. I restored it and also did a
few other cleanups:
- Make a static method for namespacing purposes
- Put the test files in the data dir with the other test data
- Avoid mutating globals in the machine config tests
This will be used by Hydra.
Need to decouple parsing from actually opening a store for Machine
configs.

In particular `local://<path>` and `unix://` (without any path) now
work, and mean the same things as `local` and `daemon`, respectively. We
thus now have the opportunity to desguar `local` and `daemon` early.
This will allow me to make a change to
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/9839 requested during review to
desugar those earlier.

1. Hydra currently queries for multiple path infos at once, so let us
make a connection item for that.
2. The minimum of the two versions should always be used, see #9584.
(The issue remains open because the daemon protocol needs to be
likewise updated.)
The JSON format no longer uses the legacy ATerm `r:` prefixing nonsese,
but separate fields.
Progress on #9866

On several occasions I've found myself confused when trying to delete
a store path, because I am told it's still alive, but
nix-store --query --roots doesn't show anything. Let's save future
users this confusion by mentioning that a path might be alive due to
having referrers, not just roots.
In addition:
- Take the opportunity to add a bunch more missing hyperlinks, too.
- Remove some glossary entries that are now subsumed by dedicated pages.
We used to not be able to do this without breaking link fragments, but
now we can, so pick up where we left off.

the old `copyFile` was just a wrapper that was calling the `copy`
function. This wrapper function is removed and the `copy` function is
renamed to `copyFile`.
Building derivations is a lot harder, but the downloading goals is
portable enough.
The "common channel" code is due to Volth. I wonder if there is a way we
can factor it out into separate functions / files to avoid some
within-function CPP.

Sometimes we read a directory with children we cannot stat. It's a pitty
we even try to stat at all (wasteful) in the `DT_UNKNOWN` case, but at
least this should get rid of the failure.
This makes for shorter and more portable code.
The only tricky part is catching exceptions: I just searched for near by
`catch (Error &)` or `catch (SysError &)` and adjusted them to `catch
(std::filesystem::filesystem_error &)` according to my human judgement.
Good for windows portability; will help @siddhantk232 with his GSOC
project.
Now that SourcePath uses a SourceAccessor instead of an InputAccessor,
we can use it in function signatures instead of passing a
SourceAccessor and CanonPath separately.
Make sure that `extraSandboxProfile` is set before we check whether it's
empty or not (in the `sandbox=true` case).
Also adds a test case for this.

Fix formatting violations, update blacklist to reflect moved files.
PR #10556 passed CI before the new formating rules were added, and our
CI has the race condition of allowing old results, resulting in master
getting broken.
Windows now has some basic Unix Domain Socket support, see
https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/af_unix-comes-to-windows/
Building `nix daemon` on Windows I've left for later, because the daemon
currently forks per connection but this is not an option on Windows. But
we can get the client part working right away.
With Linux kernel >=6.6 & glibc 2.39 a `fchmodat2(2)` is available that
isn't filtered away by the libseccomp sandbox.
Being able to use this to bypass that restriction has surprising results
for some builds such as lxc[1]:
> With kernel ≥6.6 and glibc 2.39, lxc's install phase uses fchmodat2,
> which slips through 9b88e52846/src/libstore/build/local-derivation-goal.cc (L1650-L1663).
> The fixupPhase then uses fchmodat, which fails.
> With older kernel or glibc, setting the suid bit fails in the
> install phase, which is not treated as fatal, and then the
> fixup phase does not try to set it again.
Please note that there are still ways to bypass this sandbox[2] and this is
mostly a fix for the breaking builds.
This change works by creating a syscall filter for the `fchmodat2`
syscall (number 452 on most systems). The problem is that glibc 2.39
and seccomp 2.5.5 are needed to have the correct syscall number available
via `__NR_fchmodat2` / `__SNR_fchmodat2`, but this flake is still on
nixpkgs 23.11. To have this change everywhere and not dependent on the
glibc this package is built against, I added a header
"fchmodat2-compat.hh" that sets the syscall number based on the
architecture. On most platforms its 452 according to glibc with a few
exceptions:
$ rg --pcre2 'define __NR_fchmodat2 (?!452)'
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/x32/arch-syscall.h
58:#define __NR_fchmodat2 1073742276
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips64/n32/arch-syscall.h
67:#define __NR_fchmodat2 6452
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips64/n64/arch-syscall.h
62:#define __NR_fchmodat2 5452
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips32/arch-syscall.h
70:#define __NR_fchmodat2 4452
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/arch-syscall.h
59:#define __NR_fchmodat2 562
I tested the change by adding the diff below as patch to
`pkgs/tools/package-management/nix/common.nix` & then built a VM from
the following config using my dirty nixpkgs master:
{
vm = { pkgs, ... }: {
virtualisation.writableStore = true;
virtualisation.memorySize = 8192;
virtualisation.diskSize = 12 * 1024;
nix.package = pkgs.nixVersions.nix_2_21;
};
}
The original issue can be triggered via
nix build -L github:nixos/nixpkgs/d6dc19adbda4fd92fe9a332327a8113eaa843894#lxc \
--extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes'
however the problem disappears with this patch applied.
