The issue *seems* to be the cross jobs, which are missing the `CXXFLAGS`
needed to get rapidcheck.
PR #6538 would be really nice to resurrect which will prevent the
`configureFlags` from going out of sync between the regular build and
the cross build again.
mdbook-linkcheck is not consistent about its warning setting.
It disables some warnings, but not the warnings about lack of
fragment checking support; hence the extra filtering.
This runs the installer in a QEMU VM. Unlike the old installer test
that ran inside a declaratively built RedHat/Debian image, this uses
an image from Vagrant.
With this, Nix will write a copy of the sandbox shell to /bin/sh in
the sandbox rather than bind-mounting it from the host filesystem.
This makes /bin/sh work out of the box with nix-static, i.e. you no
longer get
/nix/store/qa36xhc5gpf42l3z1a8m1lysi40l9p7s-bootstrap-stage4-stdenv-linux/setup: ./configure: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
Python is only pulled into the build closure by Mercurial, which might end up being removed.
Let’s port the script to jq, which is more likely to stay.
Apart from a slight simplification and a bit of dogfooding, this also
make the cache behavior more predictable.
For example `nix build .` and `nix build nix/$(git rev-parse HEAD)` will
yield the exact same path, while their “intuitive” non-flake equivalents
(`nix-build` and
`nix-build https://github.com/nixos/nix/archives/$(git rev-parse HEAD).tar.gz`)
don’t.
This was a pain for example in https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/5059
Also, the `bar-with-logs` log format is imho nicer (even in an
non-interactive context) because prefixing each log line with the name
of the derivation that produced it makes it much easier to follow what’s
going on.
We explicitly hack around to remove them, so might as well check that
the hack is useful.
(Introduced because I feared that the changes of
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/5906#discussion_r784810238 would bring
back some runtime references)
For a (currently hardcoded and limited) list of stdenvs,
make `.#$nix-${stdenvName}` correspond to a Nix built with the
corresponding stdenv.
For example, `.#nix-${clang11Stdenv}` is Nix built with clang11.
Likewise, `devShells.x86_64-linux.clang11StdenvPackages` is a development
shell for Nix with clang11, that can be used with
```shell
nix develop .#clang11StdenvPackages
```
Fix#4129
/cc @pamplemousse
Fixes the problem where a stack pointer outside the original
thread causes the collector to crash.
It could be made more accurate by recording the stack pointer
every time we switch to a coroutine. We can use this information
to update our own coroutine stacks like normal data. When the
stack pointer is on a thread, we can add a field to GC_thread
"fallback_sp" to be used when the thread sp is outside the original
thread range.
This requires adding `nix` to its own closure which is a bit unfortunate,
but as it is optional (the test will be disabled if `OUTER_NIX` is unset) it
shouldn't be too much of an issue.
(Ideally this should go in another derivation so that we can build Nix and run
the test independently, but as the tests are running in the same derivation
as the build it's a bit complicated to do so).
When performing distributed builds of machine learning packages, it
would be nice if builders without the required SIMD instructions can
be excluded as build nodes.
Since x86_64 has accumulated a large number of different instruction
set extensions, listing all possible extensions would be unwieldy.
AMD, Intel, Red Hat, and SUSE have recently defined four different
microarchitecture levels that are now part of the x86-64 psABI
supplement and will be used in glibc 2.33:

This change uses libcpuid to detect CPU features and then uses them to
add the supported x86_64 levels to the additional system types. For
example on a Ryzen 3700X:
$ ~/aps/bin/nix -vv --version | grep "Additional system"
Additional system types: i686-linux, x86_64-v1-linux, x86_64-v2-linux, x86_64-v3-linux
