2^18 was overkill. The idea was to enable multiple containers to run
inside a build. However, those containers can use the same UID range -
we don't really care about perfect isolation between containers inside
a build.
Also, run builds in a cgroup namespace (ensuring /proc/self/cgroup
doesn't leak information about the outside world) and mount /sys. This
enables running systemd-nspawn and thus NixOS containers in a Nix
build.
Rather than rely on a nixbld group, we now allocate UIDs/GIDs
dynamically starting at a configurable ID (872415232 by default).
Also, we allocate 2^18 UIDs and GIDs per build, and run the build as
root in its UID namespace. (This should not be the default since it
breaks some builds. We probably should enable this conditional on a
requiredSystemFeature.) The goal is to be able to run (NixOS)
containers in a build. However, this will also require some cgroup
initialisation.
The 2^18 UIDs/GIDs is intended to provide enough ID space to run
multiple containers per build, e.g. for distributed NixOS tests.
Generalize `queryDerivationOutputNames` and `queryDerivationOutputs` by
adding a `queryDerivationOutputMap` that returns the map
`outputName=>outputPath`
(not that this is not equivalent to merging the results of
`queryDerivationOutputs` and `queryDerivationOutputNames` as sets don't
preserve the order, so we would end up with an incorrect mapping).
squash! Add a way to get all the outputs of a derivation with their label
Rename StorePathMap to OutputPathMap
Now the derivation outputs are parsed up front, we can avoid a reparse
by doing it. Also, this just feels a bit better as the `output*` env
vars are more of a `libnixexpr` interface than `libnixstore` interface:
ultimately, it's the derivation outputs that decide whether the
derivation is fixed-output.
Yes, hashed mirrors might go away with #3689, but this bit of code would
be moved rather than deleted, so it's worth doing a cleanup anyways I
think.
Not implementing anything here, just throwing an error if a derivation
sets `__contentAddressed = true` without
`--experimental-features content-addressed-paths`
(and also with it as there's nothing implemented yet)
On nix-env -qa -f '<nixpkgs>', this reduces maximum RSS by 20970 KiB
and runtime by 0.8%. This is mostly because we're not parsing the hash
part as a hash anymore (just validating that it consists of base-32
characters).
Also, replace storePathToHash() by StorePath::hashPart().
E.g. instead of
error: --- BuildError ----------------------------------------------- nix
builder for '/nix/store/03nk0a3n8h2948k4lqfgnnmym7knkcma-foo.drv' failed with exit code 1
error: --- Error ---------------------------------------------------- nix
build of '/nix/store/03nk0a3n8h2948k4lqfgnnmym7knkcma-foo.drv' failed
we now get
error: --- Error ---------------------------------------------------- nix
builder for '/nix/store/03nk0a3n8h2948k4lqfgnnmym7knkcma-foo.drv' failed with exit code 1
