Allow CLI to pass environment variables to FOD builder (#8830)
Add a new experimental `impure-env` setting that is a key-value list of
environment variables to inject into FOD derivations that specify the
corresponding `impureEnvVars`.

This allows clients to make use of this feature (without having to change the
environment of the daemon itself) and might eventually deprecate the current
behaviour (pick whatever is in the environment of the daemon) as it's more
principled and might prevent information leakage.

f7b8f8aff6 Introduce separate Serve protocol serialisers
To start, it is just a clone of the common protocol. But now that we
have the separate protocol implementations, we can add versioning
information without the versions of one protocol leaking into another.

Using the infrastructure from the previous commit, we don't have to
duplicate code for shared behavior.

Motivation: No more perverse incentives. [0] did some awkward things
because the serialisers did not store the version. I don't want anyone
making changes to be pushed towards keeping the serialization logic with
the core data types just because it's easier or the alternative is
tedious.

The actual versioning of the Worker and Serve protocol serialisers
(Common remains unversioned as the underlying mini-protocols are not
versioned) will happen in subsequent commits / PRs.

4de54b2190 Unit test the "common protocol" too
Copy the relevant tests to ensure the new interfaces added in the last
commit are tested.

Perhaps I should try to deduplicat these tests some more. However its
not clear how to do that outside of a big ugly C++ macro.
https://github.com/google/googletest/blob/main/docs/advanced.md has some
stuff but it is cumbersome and I didn't figure it out yet.

This is done in a separate commit in order to be sure that the first
commit really didn't change any behavior; if we changed the
implementation and the tests at once, it would be harder to tell whether
or not some behavioral changes slipped in what is supposed to be a "pure
refactor".

be81764320 Factor out bits of the worker protocol to use elsewhere
This introduces some shared infrastructure for our notion of protocols.
We can then define multiple protocols in terms of that notion.
We an also express how particular protocols depend on each other.

For example, we can define a common protocol and a worker protocol,
where the second depends on the first in terms of the data types it can
read and write.

The "serve" protocol can just use the common one for now, but will
eventually need its own machinary just like the worker protocol for
version-aware serialisers

68c81c7375 Put functional tests in tests/functional
I think it is bad for these reasons when `tests/` contains a mix of
functional and integration tests

 - Concepts is harder to understand, the documentation makes a good
   unit vs functional vs integration distinction, but when the
   integration tests are just two subdirs within `tests/` this is not
   clear.

 - Source filtering in the `flake.nix` is more complex. We need to
   filter out some of the dirs from `tests/`, rather than simply pick
   the dirs we want and take all of them. This is a good sign the
   structure of what we are trying to do is not matching the structure
   of the files.

With this change we have a clean:
```shell-session
$ git show 'HEAD:tests'
tree HEAD:tests

functional/
installer/
nixos/
```

e0e47c0a68 accommodate inconsistent output from lowdown
the `term` output mode leaves inline HTML around verbatim, while `nroff`
mode (used for `man` pages) does not.

the correct solution would be to pre-render all output with a more
benign tool so we have less liabilities in our own code, but this has to
do for now.

24bda0c7b3 StorePath: reject names starting with '.'
This has been the behaviour before Nix 2.4. It was dropped in a rewrite
in 759947bf72, allowing the creation of
store paths that aren't considered valid by older Nix versions or other
Nix tooling.

Nix 2.4 didn't ship in NixOS until 22.05, and stdenv.mkDerivation in
nixpkgs drops leading periods since April 2022, so it's unlikely anyone
is relying on the current lax behaviour.

Closes #9091.

e1af175707 Enable most of the third BuildResult worker protocol test
This was somewhat of a false alarm. The problem was not that the
protocol implementation actually failed to round trip, but that two of
the fields were ignored entirely --- not serialized and deserialized at
all.

For reference, those fields were added in
fa68eb367e.

8440afbed7 Revert "Adapt scheduler to work with dynamic derivations"
This reverts commit 5e3986f59c. This
un-implements RFC 92 but fixes the critical bug #9052 which many people
are hitting. This is a decent stop-gap until a minimal reproduction of
that bug is found and a proper fix can be made.

Mostly fixed #9052, but I would like to leave that issue open until we
have a regression test, so I can then properly fix the bug (unbreaking
RFC 92) later.

bfdd908f7d structured attrs: improve support / usage of NIX_ATTRS_{SH,JSON}_FILE
In #4770 I implemented proper `nix-shell(1)` support for derivations
using `__structuredAttrs = true;`. Back then we decided to introduce two
new environment variables, `NIX_ATTRS_SH_FILE` for `.attrs.sh` and
`NIX_ATTRS_JSON_FILE` for `.attrs.json`. This was to avoid having to
copy these files to `$NIX_BUILD_TOP` in a `nix-shell(1)` session which
effectively meant copying these files to the project dir without
cleaning up afterwords[1].

On last NixCon I resumed hacking on `__structuredAttrs = true;` by
default for `nixpkgs` with a few other folks and getting back to it,
I identified a few problems with the how it's used in `nixpkgs`:

* A lot of builders in `nixpkgs` don't care about the env vars and
  assume that `.attrs.sh` and `.attrs.json` are in `$NIX_BUILD_TOP`.
  The sole reason why this works is that `nix-shell(1)` sources
  the contents of `.attrs.sh` and then sources `$stdenv/setup` if it
  exists. This may not be pretty, but it mostly works. One notable
  difference when using nixpkgs' stdenv as of now is however that
  `$__structuredAttrs` is set to `1` on regular builds, but set to
  an empty string in a shell session.

  Also, `.attrs.json` cannot be used in shell sessions because
  it can only be accessed by `$NIX_ATTRS_JSON_FILE` and not by
  `$NIX_BUILD_TOP/.attrs.json`.

  I considered changing Nix to be compatible with what nixpkgs
  effectively does, but then we'd have to either move $NIX_BUILD_TOP for
  shell sessions to a temporary location (and thus breaking a lot of
  assumptions) or we'd reintroduce all the problems we solved back then
  by using these two env vars.

  This is partly because I didn't document these variables back
  then (mea culpa), so I decided to drop all mentions of
  `.attrs.{json,sh}` in the  manual and only refer to `$NIX_ATTRS_SH_FILE`
  and `$NIX_ATTRS_JSON_FILE`. The same applies to all our integration tests.
  Theoretically we could deprecated using `"$NIX_BUILD_TOP"/.attrs.sh` in
  the future now.

* `nix develop` and `nix print-dev-env` don't support this environment
  variable at all even though they're supposed to be part of the replacement
  for `nix-shell` - for the drv debugging part to be precise.

  This isn't a big deal for the vast majority of derivations, i.e.
  derivations relying on nixpkgs' `stdenv` wiring things together
  properly. This is because `nix develop` effectively "clones" the
  derivation and replaces the builder with a script that dumps all of
  the environment, shell variables, functions etc, so the state of
  structured attrs being "sourced" is transmitted into the dev shell and
  most of the time you don't need to worry about `.attrs.sh` not
  existing because the shell is correctly configured and the

      if [ -e .attrs.sh ]; then source .attrs.sh; fi

  is simply omitted.

  However, this will break when having a derivation that reads e.g. from
  `.attrs.json` like

      with import <nixpkgs> {};
      runCommand "foo" { __structuredAttrs = true; foo.bar = 23; } ''
        cat $NIX_ATTRS_JSON_FILE # doesn't work because it points to /build/.attrs.json
      ''

  To work around this I employed a similar approach as it exists for
  `nix-shell`: the `NIX_ATTRS_{JSON,SH}_FILE` vars are replaced with
  temporary locations.

  The contents of `.attrs.sh` and `.attrs.json` are now written into the
  JSON by `get-env.sh`, the builder that `nix develop` injects into the
  derivation it's debugging. So finally the exact file contents are
  present and exported by `nix develop`.

  I also made `.attrs.json` a JSON string in the JSON printed by
  `get-env.sh` on purpose because then it's not necessary to serialize
  the object structure again. `nix develop` only needs the JSON
  as string because it's only written into the temporary file.

  I'm not entirely sure if it makes sense to also use a temporary
  location for `nix print-dev-env` (rather than just skipping the
  rewrite in there), but this would probably break certain cases where
  it's relied upon `$NIX_ATTRS_SH_FILE` to exist (prime example are the
  `nix print-dev-env` test-cases I wrote in this patch using
  `tests/shell.nix`, these would fail because the env var exists, but it
  cannot read from it).

Respect NOCOLOR
While `nix` has always been respectful towards requests for `NO_COLOR=1`, this change asks represents a new stage of maturity for `nix` - making it also respect quests for `NOCOLOR=1`.

This ideally makes the tool more accessible to folks like me, who are exhausted by guessing whether `NO_COLOR` or `NOCOLOR` is the right environment variable to set.

1d9fd3a6f8 manual / manpages: Adjust option filter filtering, move from C++ to Nix
Behavior change:

Before we only showed uption if the command-specific options were
non-empty. But that is somewhat odd since we also show common options.
Now, we do everything based on the union of both sorts of options (with
hidden-categories filtered, as before).

Implementation change:

The JSON dumping once again includes all options; the filtering of
hidden categories is done in the Nix instead. This is better separation
of "content" vs "presentation", and prepare the way for the HTML manual
vs manpages / `--help` doing different things.

fix: nix shell multiple commands example (#8950)
The `-c` flag belongs to `sh` not `nix shell`. As it stands, the command errors with:

```
$ nix shell nixpkgs#gnumake --command sh --command "cd src && make"
sh: --command: invalid option
```

https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/8276 was good for readability, but it missed this since that PR used a find/replace script.

80d7994f52 Special-case error message to add extra information
The Derivation parser and old ATerm unfortunately leaves few ways to get
nice errors when an old version of Nix encounters a new version of the
format. The most likely scenario for this to occur is with a new client
making a derivation that the old daemon it is communicating with cannot
understand.

The extensions we just created for dynamic derivation deps will add a
version field, solving the problem going forward, but there is still the
issue of what to do about old versions of Nix up to now.

The solution here is to carefully catch the bad error from the daemon
that is likely to indicate this problem, and add some extra context to
it.

There is another "Ugly backwards compatibility hack" in
`remote-store.cc` that also works by transforming an error.

7ad66cb3ef Allow dynamic derivation deps in inputDrvs
We use the same nested map representation we used for goals, again in
order to save space. We might someday want to combine with `inputDrvs`,
by doing `V = bool` instead of `V = std::set<OutputName>`, but we are
not doing that yet for sake of a smaller diff.

The ATerm format for Derivations also needs to be extended, in addition
to the in-memory format. To accomodate this, we added a new basic
versioning scheme, so old versions of Nix will get nice errors. (And
going forward, if the ATerm format changes again the errors will be even
better.)

`parsedStrings`, an internal function used as part of parsing
derivations in A-Term format, used to consume the final `]` but expect
the initial `[` to already be consumed. This made for what looked like
unbalanced brackets at callsites, which was confusing. Now it consumes
both which is hopefully less confusing.

As part of testing, we also created a unit test for the A-Term format for
regular non-experimental derivations too.

09eb7f1ef6 do not show configuration override flags for each command
this removes a lot of noise from the web search, which precludes finding
the actual documentation.

some configuration settings have enough documentation to warrant
individual pages, so the alternative of including full setting
documentation in each command page doesn't make much sense here.

this change technically means that the command line flags to override
settings are "invisible", and not exported as JSON. this may or may not
be desirable. a more explicit approach would be adding a `hidden` field
to the flag's JSON output, but would also require adjusting
post-processing of that JSON for manual rendering.

b7edc2099f Improve derivation parsing
- Don't assert: Derivation ATerms are not necessarily produced by Nix,
  and parsers should always throw graceful errors

- Improve error message from `static void except(..)`, shows both what
  we expected and what we actually got.

The intention is that we backport it, and then hopefully a few people
might get slightly better errors if they try out new experimental drv
files (for RFC 92) with an old version of Nix.

5e3986f59c Adapt scheduler to work with dynamic derivations
To avoid dealing with an optional `drvPath` (because we might not know
it yet) everywhere, make an `CreateDerivationAndRealiseGoal`. This goal
just builds/substitutes the derivation file, and then kicks of a build
for that obtained derivation; in other words it does the chaining of
goals when the drv file is missing (as can already be the case) or
computed (new case).

This also means the `getDerivation` state can be removed from
`DerivationGoal`, which makes the `BasicDerivation` / in memory case and
`Derivation` / drv file file case closer together.

The map type is factored out for clarity, and because we will soon hvae
a second use for it (`Derivation` itself).

692074f714 Use Worker::makeDerivationGoal less
We're about to split up `DerivationGoal` a bit. At that point
`makeDerivationGoal` will mean something more specific than it does
today. (Perhaps a future rename will make this clearer.)

On the other hand, the more public `Worker::makeGoal` function will
continue to work exactly as before. So by moving some call sites to use
that instead, we preemptively avoid issues in the next step.

Tom Bereknyei
52248b1c27 feat: notation to refer to no attribute search prefix
An attrPath prefix of "." indicates no need to try default attrPath prefixes. For example 1nixpkgs#legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.ERROR` searches through

```
trying flake output attribute 'packages.x86_64-linux.legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.ERROR'
using cached attrset attribute ''
trying flake output attribute 'legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.ERROR'
using cached attrset attribute 'legacyPackages.x86_64-linux'
trying flake output attribute 'legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.ERROR'
using cached attrset attribute 'legacyPackages.x86_64-linux'
```

And there is no way to specify that one does not want the automatic
search behavior. Now one can specify
`nixpkgs#.legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.ERROR` to only refer to the rooted
attribute path without any default injection of attribute search path or
system.

This function is now trivial enough that it doesn't need to exist.

`EvalState` can still be initialized with a custom search path, but we
don't have a need to mutate the search path after it has been
constructed, and I don't see why we would need to in the future.

9121fed4b4 Fixing #7479
Types converted:

- `NixStringContextElem`
- `OutputsSpec`
- `ExtendedOutputsSpec`
- `DerivationOutput`
- `DerivationType`

Existing ones mostly conforming the pattern cleaned up:

- `ContentAddressMethod`
- `ContentAddressWithReferences`

The `DerivationGoal::derivationType` field had a bogus initialization,
now caught, so I made it `std::optional`. I think #8829 can make it
non-optional again because it will ensure we always have the derivation
when we construct a `DerivationGoal`.

See that issue (#7479) for details on the general goal.

`git grep 'Raw::Raw'` indicates the two types I didn't yet convert
`DerivedPath` and `BuiltPath` (and their `Single` variants) . This is
because @roberth and I (can't find issue right now...) plan on reworking
them somewhat, so I didn't want to churn them more just yet.

73696ec716 libutil: fix double-encoding of URLs
If you have a URL that needs to be percent-encoded, such as
`http://localhost:8181/test/+3d.tar.gz`, and try to lock that in a Nix
flake such as the following:

    {
      inputs.test = { url = "http://localhost:8181/test/+3d.tar.gz"; flake = false; };
      outputs = { test, ... }: {
        t = builtins.readFile test;
      };
    }

running `nix flake metadata` shows that the input URL has been
incorrectly double-encoded (despite the flake.lock being correctly
encoded only once):

    [...snip...]
    Inputs:
    └───test: http://localhost:8181/test/%252B3d.tar.gz?narHash=sha256-EFUdrtf6Rn0LWIJufrmg8q99aT3jGfLvd1//zaJEufY%3D

(Notice the `%252B`? That's just `%2B` but percent-encoded again)

With this patch, the double-encoding is gone; running `nix flake
metadata` will show the proper URL:

    [...snip...]
    Inputs:
    └───test: http://localhost:8181/test/%2B3d.tar.gz?narHash=sha256-EFUdrtf6Rn0LWIJufrmg8q99aT3jGfLvd1//zaJEufY%3D

---

As far as I can tell, this happens because Nix already percent-encodes
the URL and stores this as the value of `inputs.asdf.url`.

However, when Nix later tries to read this out of the eval state as a
string (via `getStrAttr`), it has to run it through `parseURL` again to
get the `ParsedURL` structure.

Now, this itself isn't a problem -- the true problem arises when using
`ParsedURL::to_string` later, which then _re-escapes the path_. It is
at this point that what would have been `%2B` (`+`) becomes `%252B`
(`%2B`).

44c8d83831 Create outputOf primop.
In the Nix language, given a drv path, we should be able to construct
another string referencing to one of its output. We can do this today
with `(import drvPath).output`, but this only works for derivations we
already have.

With dynamic derivations, however, that doesn't work well because the
`drvPath` isn't yet built: importing it like would need to trigger IFD,
when the whole point of this feature is to do "dynamic build graph"
without IFD!

Instead, what we want to do is create a placeholder value with the right
string context to refer to the output of the as-yet unbuilt derivation.
A new primop in the language, analogous to `builtins.placeholder` can be
used to create one. This will achieve all the right properties. The
placeholder machinery also will match out the `outPath` attribute for CA
derivations works.

In 60b7121d2c we added that type of
placeholder, and the derived path and string holder changes necessary to
support it. Then in the previous commit we cleaned up the code
(inspiration finally hit me!) to deduplicate the code and expose exactly
what we need. Now, we can wire up the primop trivally!

e7c39ff00b Rework evaluator SingleDerivedPath infra
`EvalState::mkSingleDerivedPathString` previously contained its own
inverse (printing, rather than parsing) in order to validate what was
parsed. Now that is pulled out into its own separate function:
`EvalState::coerceToSingleDerivedPath`.

In additional that pulled out logic is deduplicated with
`EvalState::mkOutputString` via `EvalState::mkOutputStringRaw`, which is
itself deduplicated (and generalized) with
`DownstreamPlaceholder::mkOutputStringRaw`.

All these changes make the unit tests simpler.

(We would ideally write more unit tests for `mkSingleDerivedPathString`
`coerceToSingleDerivedPath` directly, but we cannot yet do that because
the IO in reading the store path won't work when the dummy store cannot
hold anything. Someday we'll have a proper in-memory store which will
work for this.)

std::move(state->data) and data.empty() were called in a loop, and
could run with no other threads intervening. Accessing moved objects
is undefined behavior, and could cause a crash.

Virtual methods are no longer valid once the derived destructor has

60b7121d2c Make the Derived Path family of types inductive for dynamic derivations
We want to be able to write down `foo.drv^bar.drv^baz`:
`foo.drv^bar.drv` is the dynamic derivation (since it is itself a
derivation output, `bar.drv` from `foo.drv`).

To that end, we create `Single{Derivation,BuiltPath}` types, that are
very similar except instead of having multiple outputs (in a set or
map), they have a single one. This is for everything to the left of the
rightmost `^`.

`NixStringContextElem` has an analogous change, and now can reuse
`SingleDerivedPath` at the top level. In fact, if we ever get rid of
`DrvDeep`, `NixStringContextElem` could be replaced with
`SingleDerivedPath` entirely!

Important note: some JSON formats have changed.

We already can *produce* dynamic derivations, but we can't refer to them
directly. Today, we can merely express building or example at the top
imperatively over time by building `foo.drv^bar.drv`, and then with a
second nix invocation doing `<result-from-first>^baz`, but this is not
declarative. The ethos of Nix of being able to write down the full plan
everything you want to do, and then execute than plan with a single
command, and for that we need the new inductive form of these types.

4b1bd822ac Try to realise CA derivations during queryMissing
This enables nix to correctly report what will be fetched in the case
that everything is a cache hit.

Note however that if an intermediate build of something which is not
cached could still cause products to end up being substituted if the
intermediate build results in a CA path which is in the cache.

Fixes #8615.

31a6e10fe5 Fix misread of source if path is already valid
When receiving a stream of NARs through the ssh-ng protocol, an already
existing path would cause the NAR archive to not be read in the stream,
resulting in trying to parse the NAR as a ValidPathInfo. This results in
the error message:
    error: not an absolute path: 'nix-archive-1'

Fixes #6253

Usually this problem is avoided by running QueryValidPaths before
AddMultipleToStore, but can arise when two parallel nix processes gets
the same response from QueryValidPaths. This makes the problem more
prominent when running builds in parallel.

3fefc2b284 Fix derivation load assertion errors
When loading a derivation from a JSON, malformed input would trigger
cryptic "assertion failed" errors. Simply replacing calls to `operator []`
with calls to `.at()` was not enough, as this would cause json.execptions
to be printed verbatim.

Display nice error messages instead and give some indication where the
error happened.

*Before:*

```
$ echo 4 | nix derivation add

$ nix derivation show nixpkgs#hello | nix derivation add
Assertion failed: (it != m_value.object->end()), function operator[], file /nix/store/8h9pxgq1776ns6qi5arx08ifgnhmgl22-nlohmann_json-3.11.2/include/nlohmann/json.hpp, line 2135.

$ nix derivation show nixpkgs#hello | jq '.[] | .name = 5' | nix derivation add

error: [json.exception.type_error.302] type must be object, but is string

```

*After:*

```
$ echo 4 | nix derivation add

nix/why-depends: fix output of --precise
I haven't checked when this was exactly introduced, but on Nix 2.16 I
realized that the additional lines inserted when using `--precise` are
completely separated from the tree:

    nix why-depends /nix/store/ccgr4faaxys39s091qridxg1947lggh4-evcxr-0.14.2 /nix/store/b7hvml0m3qmqraz1022fwvyyg6fc1vdy-gcc-12.2.0 --precise --extra-experimental-features nix-command
    /nix/store/ccgr4faaxys39s091qridxg1947lggh4-evcxr-0.14.2
        → /nix/store/lcf37pgp3rgww67v9x2990hbfwx96c1w-gcc-wrapper-12.2.0
            → /nix/store/b7hvml0m3qmqraz1022fwvyyg6fc1vdy-gcc-12.2.0
    └───bin/evcxr: …':'}.PATH=${PATH/':''/nix/store/lcf37pgp3rgww67v9x2990hbfwx96c1w-gcc-wrapper-12.2.0/bin'':'/':'}…

This is apparently because `std::cout` is buffered and flushed in the
end whereas the rest of the output isn't. The fix is rather simple, just
use `logger->cout` as it's already the case for the rest of the code.

This way we also don't need to insert additional newlines in the `hits`
map since that's something the logger takes care of.

Also added a small test to make sure that the layout of this is somehow
tested to reduce the risk of further regressions here.

Add parseFlakeRef and flakeRefToString builtins (#8670)
Over the last year or so I've run into several use cases where I need to
parse and/or serialize URLs for use by `builtins.fetchTree` or
`builtins.getFlake`, largely in order to produce _lockfile-like_ files
for lang2nix frameworks or tools which use `nix` internally to drive
builds.

I've gone through the painstaking process of emulating
`nix::FlakeRef::fromAttrs` and `nix::parseFlakeRef` several times with
mixed success; but these are difficult to create and even harder to
maintain if I hope to stay aligned with changes to the real
parser/serializer.

I understand why adding new `builtins` isn't something we want to do
flagrantly. I'm recommending this addition simply because I keep
encountering use cases where I need to parse/serialize these URIs in
`nix` expressions, and I want a reliable solution.

6bc98c7fba Give queryPartialDerivationOutputMap an evalStore parameter
This makes it more useful. In general, the derivation will be in one
store, and the realisation info is in another.

This also helps us avoid duplication. See how `resolveDerivedPath` is
now simpler because it uses `queryPartialDerivationOutputMap`. In #8369
we get more flavors of derived path, and need more code to resolve them
all, and this problem only gets worse.

The fact that we need a new method to deal with the multiple dispatch is
unfortunate, but this generally relates to the fact that `Store` is a
sub-par interface, too bulky/unwieldy and conflating separate concerns.
Solving that is out of scope of this PR.

This is part of the RFC 92 work. See tracking issue #6316

0f7242ff87 Test nested sandboxing, and make nicer error
We were bedeviled by sandboxing issues when working on the layered
store. The problem ended up being that when we have nested nix builds,
and the inner store is inside the build dir (e.g. store is
`/build/nix-test/$name/store`, build dir is `/build`) bind mounts
clobber each other and store paths cannot be found.

After thoroughly cleaning up `local-derivation-goal.cc`, we might be
able to make that work. But that is a lot of work. For now, we just fail
earlier with a proper error message.

Finally, test this: nested sandboxing without the problematic store dir
should work, and with should fail with the expected error message.
