2b9e29b1c8 * Change the right-hand side of the ‘.’ operator from an attribute to 
an attribute path.  This is a refactoring to support default values.
 2011-07-06 12:28:57 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
5637037802 * In the ‘?’ operator, allow attribute paths. For instance, you can 
write ‘attrs ? a.b’ to test whether ‘attrs’ has an attribute ‘a’
  containing an attribute ‘b’.  This is more convenient than ‘attrs ?
  a && attrs.a ? b’.

  Slight change in the semantics: it's no longer an error if the
  left-hand side of ‘?’ is not an attribute set.  In that case it just
  returns false.  So, ‘null ? foo’ no longer throws an error.

4ba6afaf48 * nix-env -ub' (--prebuilt-only') didn't really work because it 
checked too soon whether substitutes are available.  That is, it did
  so for every available package, rather than those matching installed
  packages.  This was very slow and subject to assertion failures.  So
  do the check much later.  Idem for `nix-env -qab' and `nix-env -ib'.

538b7caab0 * Don't allocate a big initial GC address space on machines with 
little RAM.  Even if the memory isn't actually used, it can cause
  problems with the overcommit heuristics in the kernel.  So use a VM
  space of 25% of RAM, up to 384 MB.

5a6b039802 * Don't call GC_expand_hp unless we're actually using the garbage 
collector.

b1eb252172 * Propagate the "100" exit status for failed builds through the Nix 
daemon.
 2010-12-17 11:28:26 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
3dd02580e3 * I forgot to catch SQLiteBusy in registerValidPaths(). So 
registerValidPaths() now handles busy errors and registerValidPath()
  is simply a wrapper around it.
 2010-12-14 13:25:20 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
d787285af9 * nix-instantiate: return exit status 100 to denote a permanent build 
failure.  The build hook can use this to distinguish between
  transient and permanent failures on the remote side.

Eelco Dolstra
8062d3af30 * `nix-store --verify --check-contents': don't hold the global GC lock 
while checking the contents, since this operation can take a very
  long time to finish.  Also, fill in missing narSize fields in the DB
  while doing this.
 2010-12-06 15:29:38 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
de79d23f76 * Retry a transaction if SQLite returns SQLITE_BUSY. This can happen 
even with a very long busy timeout, because SQLITE_BUSY is also
  returned to resolve deadlocks.  This should get rid of random
  "database is locked" errors.  This is kind of hard to test though.
* Fix a horrible bug in deleteFromStore(): deletePathWrapped() should
  be called after committing the transaction, not before, because the
  commit might not succeed.
 2010-12-05 18:23:19 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
77f7a6d591 * Quick hack around one of the pathological cases in bsdiff 
(namely, when there is a long region of 0s).  On one 86 MiB
  case, this cut patch generation time from 44m to 2m.

Eelco Dolstra
812fae424e * DrvInfo contains pointers to expressions, so DrvInfos should be 
traced by the garbage collector.  Otherwise "nix-env -u" can crash
  randomly.
 2010-11-25 13:47:34 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
bdf089f463 * Before a build, show the disk space that the downloaded store paths 
will approximately require.

Eelco Dolstra
a3883cbd28 * Store the size of a store path in the database (to be precise, the 
size of the NAR serialisation of the path, i.e., `nix-store --dump
  PATH').  This is useful for Hydra.
 2010-11-16 17:11:46 +00:00

26def5392f * Document Boehm GC support. 2010-10-29 14:44:02 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
14fbf85380 * Set libgc's initial heap size to 384 MiB to prevent garbage 
collection in most cases (and therefore its performance overhead).
 2010-10-29 13:11:50 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
0c4828ea05 * new(UseGC) is inexplicably slower than GC_MALLOC, so prefer the 
latter.

e11e6fb1c6 * Handle out of memory condition. 2010-10-28 12:29:40 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
43535499f3 * When allocating an attribute set, reserve enough space for all 
elements.  This prevents the vector from having to resize itself.
 2010-10-24 20:09:37 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
e0b7fb8f27 * Keep attribute sets in sorted order to speed up attribute lookups. 
* Simplify the representation of attributes in the AST.
* Change the behaviour of listToAttrs() in case of duplicate names.
 2010-10-24 19:52:33 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
2dc6d50941 * Don't create thunks for variable lookups (if possible). This 
significantly reduces the number of values allocated (e.g. from 8.7m
  to 4.9m for the Bittorrent test).
 2010-10-24 14:20:02 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
0b305c534f * Store attribute sets as a vector instead of a map (i.e. a red-black 
tree).  This saves a lot of memory.  The vector should be sorted so
  that names can be looked up using binary search, but this is not the
  case yet.  (Surprisingly, looking up attributes using linear search
  doesn't have a big impact on performance.)

  Memory consumption for

    $ nix-instantiate /etc/nixos/nixos/tests -A bittorrent.test --readonly-mode

  on x86_64-linux with GC enabled is now 185 MiB (compared to 946
  MiB on the trunk).

Eelco Dolstra
8ac06726b9 * Make Value smaller by not storing redundant PrimOp info. 
* Clear pointers in Values after overwriting them to make sure that no
  objects are kept alive unnecessarily.
 2010-10-23 20:07:47 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
3f66cfb96b * Remove allocValues(). 2010-10-23 18:18:07 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
4dee289550 * In environments, store pointers to values rather than values. This 
improves GC effectiveness a bit more (because a live value doesn't
  keep other values in the environment plus the parent environments
  alive), and removes the need for copy nodes.
 2010-10-22 15:51:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
41c45a9b31 * Store Value nodes outside of attribute sets. I.e., Attr now stores 
a pointer to a Value, rather than the Value directly.  This improves
  the effectiveness of garbage collection a lot: if the Value is
  stored inside the set directly, then any live pointer to the Value
  causes all other attributes in the set to be live as well.
 2010-10-22 14:47:42 +00:00

64c3325b0b * Make building against the Boehm GC a configure option. 2010-10-22 13:39:15 +00:00

e879a0371b * Use the Boehm garbage collector to reclaim unused memory in the Nix 
expression evaluator.
 2010-10-20 11:38:30 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
64fd29855a * Wrap deleteFromStore() in a transaction. Otherwise there might be a 
race with other processes that add new referrers to a path,
  resulting in the garbage collector crashing with "foreign key
  constraint failed".  (Nix/4)
* Make --gc --print-dead etc. interruptible.
 2010-10-14 15:55:51 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
705868a8a9 * Make sure that config.h is included before the system headers, 
because it defines _FILE_OFFSET_BITS.  Without this, on 
  OpenSolaris the system headers define it to be 32, and then 
  the 32-bit stat() ends up being called with a 64-bit "struct 
  stat", or vice versa.

  This also ensures that we get 64-bit file sizes everywhere.

* Remove the redundant call to stat() in parseExprFromFile().
  The file cannot be a symlink because that's the exit condition
  of the loop before.

Eelco Dolstra
450837bcc8 * In printMsg(), ignore failing writes to stderr if we're in an 
exception handler, otherwise throw an exception.  We need to ignore
  write errors in exception handlers to ensure that cleanup code runs
  to completion if the other side of stderr has been closed
  unexpectedly.

Eelco Dolstra
e4907411c2 * Only do "pragma journal_mode = ..." if the current journal mode 
differs from the desired mode.  There is an open SQLite ticket
  `Executing "PRAGMA journal_mode" may delete journal file while it is
  in use.'
 2010-09-01 11:36:22 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
bf0dde9597 * Always print hook output on stderr, even if --no-build-output is 
set.
* In the build hook, print a trace message to allow Hydra to pick up
  the name of the remote machine used for the build.
 2010-08-31 12:36:24 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
e2e168f7c2 `nix-store --verify' improvements: 
* If a path has disappeared, check its referrers first, and don't try
  to invalidate paths that have valid referrers.  Otherwise we get a
  foreign key constraint violation.
* Read the whole Nix store directory instead of statting each valid
  path, which is slower.
* Acquire the global GC lock.
 2010-08-31 11:47:31 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
80e722278c * When using the build hook, distinguish between the stderr of the 
hook script proper, and the stdout/stderr of the builder.  Only the
  latter should be saved in /nix/var/log/nix/drvs.
* Allow the verbosity to be set through an option.
* Added a flag --quiet to lower the verbosity level.
 2010-08-30 14:53:03 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
20acd43c25 * Disable the GC reachability check for now (when creating new roots), 
as it's hopelessly inefficient.
 2010-08-30 14:11:57 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
766f708418 * Experimental feature: allow a derivation to tell the build hook that 
it requires a certain feature on the build machine, e.g.

    requiredSystemFeatures = [ "kvm" ];

  We need this in Hydra to make sure that builds that require KVM
  support are forwarded to machines that have KVM support.  Probably
  this should also be enforced for local builds.
 2010-08-27 13:18:13 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
df50916e46 * Oops - "null" was displayed as "true". 2010-08-27 12:10:56 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
e437b08250 * Made the build hook mechanism more efficient. Rather than starting 
the hook every time we want to ask whether we can run a remote build
  (which can be very often), we now reuse a hook process for answering
  those queries until it accepts a build.  So if there are N
  derivations to be built, at most N hooks will be started.

fd9c77dfc7 * Use SQLite 3.7.0's write-ahead logging (WAL mode). This is a lot 
faster than the old mode when fsyncs are enabled, because it only
  performs an fsync() when doing a checkpoint, rather than at every
  commit.  Some timings for doing a "nix-instantiate /etc/nixos/nixos
  -A system" after modifying the stdenv setup script:

    42.5s - SQLite 3.6.23 with truncate mode and fsync
     3.4s - SQLite 3.6.23 with truncate mode and no fsync
    32.1s - SQLite 3.7.0 with truncate mode and fsync
    16.8s - SQLite 3.7.0 with WAL mode and fsync, auto-checkpoint
            every 1000 pages
     8.3s - SQLite 3.7.0 with WAL mode and fsync, auto-checkpoint
            every 8192 pages
     1.7s - SQLite 3.7.0 with WAL mode and no fsync

  The default is now to use WAL mode with fsyncs.  Because WAL doesn't
  work on remote filesystems such as NFS (as it uses shared memory),
  truncate mode can be re-enabled by setting the "use-sqlite-wal"
  option to false.
 2010-08-04 17:35:59 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
750be19ae8 * Remove "auto" and "guess" as synonyms for 0 in the handling of 
build-cores and --cores.  They're superfluous and just complicate
  the parsing.
 2010-08-04 12:23:59 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
7f893b7a43 * Allow derivations to hint that they should not be built remotely 
using the build hook mechanism, by setting the derivation attribute
  "preferLocalBuild" to true.  This has a few use cases:

  - The user environment builder.  Since it just creates a bunch of
    symlinks without much computation, there is no reason to do it
    remotely.  In fact, doing it remotely requires the entire closure
    of the user environment to be copied to the remote machine, which
    is extremely wasteful.

  - `fetchurl'.  Performing the download on a remote machine and then
    copying it to the local machine involves twice as much network
    traffic as performing the download locally, and doesn't save any
    CPU cycles on the local machine.
 2010-08-04 12:13:58 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
315d8fbd75 * Set the default system filter to "*". This ensures that (for 
instance) "nix-env -i wine" works on x86_64-linux, even though Wine
  is built on i686-linux.  In the event that there are multiple
  matching derivations, prefer those built for the current system.

Eelco Dolstra
7af6a2fd71 * intersectAttrs: optimise for the case where the second set is larger

a17071fef1 Include <cstring> to ensure that strcpy(), strlen(), and memset() are declared. 
An "using namespace std" was added locally in those functions that refer to
names from <cstring>. That is not pretty, but it's a very portable solution,
because strcpy() and friends will be found in both the 'std' and in the global
namespace.

8b7f8b56f1 Added support for passing an (impure) NIX_BUILD_CORES variable to build expressions. 
This patch adds the configuration file variable "build-cores" and the
command line argument "--cores". These settings specify the number of
CPU cores to utilize for parallel building within a job, i.e. by passing
an appropriate "-j" flag to GNU Make. The default value is 1, which
means that parallel building is *disabled*. If the number of build cores
is specified as 0 (synonymously: "guess" or "auto"), then the actual
value is supposed to be auto-detected by builders at run-time, i.e by
calling the nproc(1) utility from coreutils.

The environment variable $NIX_BUILD_CORES is available to builders, but
the contents of that variable does *not* influence the hash that goes
into the $out store path, i.e. the number of build cores to be utilized
can be changed at will without requiring any re-builds.

3e5e0faf9c * Okay, putting a lock on the temporary directory used by importPath() 
doesn't work because the garbage collector doesn't actually look at
  locks.  So r22253 was stupid.  Use addTempRoot() instead.  Also,
  locking the temporary directory in exportPath() was silly because it
  isn't even in the store.

check' now succeeds :-)
* An attribute set such as `{ foo = { enable = true; };
  foo.port = 23; }' now parses.  It was previously rejected, but I'm
  too lazy to implement the check.  (The only reason to reject it is
  that the reverse, `{ foo.port = 23; foo = { enable = true; }; }', is
  rejected, which is kind of ugly.)

85d13c8f93 * Change the semantics of "with" so that inner "withs" take 
precedence, i.e. `with {x=1;}; with {x=2;}; x' evaluates to 2'.
  This has a simpler implementation and seems more natural.  There
  doesn't seem to be any code in Nixpkgs or NixOS that relies on the
  old behaviour.

Eelco Dolstra
816f9c0f6f * Use std::tr1::unordered_set instead of std::set for the symbol

that there are some places in Nixpkgs (php_configurable /

  incorrect arguments (namely, the `name' attribute missing) but get
  away with it because of laziness.

1a65142ec4 * Remove a debug statement. 2010-03-10 12:46:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
4c356acd04 * In `nix-store --export', abort if the contents of a path has 
changed.  This prevents corrupt paths from spreading to other
  machines.  Note that checking the hash is cheap because we're
  hashing anyway (because of the --sign feature).
 2010-03-09 14:32:03 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
44f6e6de77 * Set gc-keep-outputs' or gc-keep-derivations' to false with 
`--delete --ignore-liveness'.
 2010-03-08 21:31:42 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
2e4ef03aa3 * Increase the sqlite timeout. 2010-03-08 10:35:45 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
04791840f4 * Emit warning='1' or error='1' attributes for lines marked as 
warnings or errors with \e[w or \e[e.

bc6f7fc139 * Remove some unused functions. 2010-03-04 13:03:26 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
fb6e223ddc * Synced with the trunk. 2010-03-04 12:15:00 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
e14e2399ed * Prevent a potential memory corruption problem if an ATerm garbage 
collection happens during fixAttrs().
 2010-03-02 20:23:42 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
56af8e86e3 * Protect the true', false' and `__overrides' constants. Without 
an ATprotect call, these could be garbage collected, leading to
  weird crashes or wrong results.
 2010-03-02 20:09:12 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
3f9e647ae8 * checkInterrupt() shouldn't be called from a destructor. 2010-03-02 19:04:17 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
594eaddd11 * When using the included sqlite/aterm libraries, build with 
--enable-shared.
* In libutil/libstore/libexpr etc., link against sqlite and aterm.
* Some more header file hygiene.
 2010-03-02 15:58:13 +00:00

e42401ee7b * Implement RemoteStore::queryDerivationOutputs(). 2010-02-25 15:52:22 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
af565c348a * Support read-only access to the database. 2010-02-24 16:44:43 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
e33f67ff0b * Refactor the upgrade / database initialisation logic a bit. 2010-02-24 16:30:20 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
84a4dd5ff0 * Don't use fdatasync since it doesn't work on Snow Leopard. 
* Don't refer to config.h in util.hh, because config.h is not
  installed (http://hydra.nixos.org/build/303053).
 2010-02-24 15:46:06 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
cfe742cfc5 * A function to query just the database id of a valid path. 2010-02-24 15:07:23 +00:00

9fd85c94de * Use `truncate' journal mode, which should be a bit faster. 2010-02-24 14:22:34 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
fefd467539 * `helpText' is now zero-terminated. 2010-02-24 13:24:27 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
a3c63d0d6c * Disable fsync() in SQLite if the fsync-metadata option is set to 
false.
* Change the default for `fsync-metadata' to true.
* Disable `fsync-metadata' in `make check'.
 2010-02-24 13:12:57 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
90b6352d0a * Do registerValidPaths() in one transaction, which is much faster. 
E.g. it cuts the runtime of the referrers test from 50s to 23s.

fae0427324 * ADDITIONAL_NETWORK_LIBS -> LIBS. 2010-02-24 12:25:48 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
fa6a4fcb11 * Add ${sqlite_lib} everywhere. Just adding it in `libstore' doesn't 
work on x86_64 when sqlite is compiled statically.
 2010-02-24 12:18:48 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
5954eadf67 * Remove the fdatasync check since it's no longer needed. 2010-02-24 12:16:50 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
462bd50aef * Use normal (rather than full) synchronous mode, which I gather from 
the description at http://www.sqlite.org/atomiccommit.html should be
  safe enough.

Eelco Dolstra
9cda616949 * The database needs a trigger to get rid of self-references to 
prevent a foreign key constraint violation on the Refs table when
  deleting a path.
 2010-02-22 14:18:55 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
c4d388add4 * Get derivation outputs from the database instead of the .drv file, 
which requires more I/O.
 2010-02-22 12:44:36 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
103cfee056 * Revert r19650 (implement gc-keep-outputs by looking for derivations 
with the same name as the output) and instead use the
  DerivationOutputs table in the database, which is the correct way to
  to do things.
 2010-02-22 11:44:17 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
299ff64812 * Put the derivation outputs in the database. This is useful for the 
garbage collector.
 2010-02-22 11:15:50 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
1930570ad9 * Foreign key support in SQLite is not a persistent setting, so enable 
it at startup.
* Implement negative caching.  Now `make check' passes.
 2010-02-19 17:15:22 +00:00

9c9a88e9e2 * Implement more stuff. 2010-02-19 16:43:25 +00:00
