Alex Ameen	153ee460c5	primop: add readFileType, optimize readDir ... Allows checking directory entry type of a single file/directory. This was added to optimize the use of `builtins.readDir` on some filesystems and operating systems which cannot detect this information using POSIX's `readdir`. Previously `builtins.readDir` would eagerly use system calls to lookup these filetypes using other interfaces; this change makes these operations lazy in the attribute values for each file with application of `builtins.readFileType`.	2023-01-22 13:45:02 -06:00

Naïm Favier	3c968191f1	move unsafeDiscardReferences out of outputChecks ... It's not a check.	2023-01-03 18:53:01 +01:00
Naïm Favier	15f7fa59be	unsafeDiscardReferences ... Adds a new boolean structured attribute `outputChecks.<output>.unsafeDiscardReferences` which disables scanning an output for runtime references. __structuredAttrs = true; outputChecks.out.unsafeDiscardReferences = true; This is useful when creating filesystem images containing their own embedded Nix store: they are self-contained blobs of data with no runtime dependencies. Setting this attribute requires the experimental feature `discard-references` to be enabled.	2023-01-03 17:19:16 +01:00
