25eedf085d * Quick and dirty implementation of with'. with e1; e2' is
basically desugared to `let <with> = e1; e2', and `lookupVar' looks
  in each <with> in the environment chain for an attribute with the
  specified name.

8a10360c91 * Simplify @-patterns: only {attrs}@name' or name@{attrs}' are now
allowed.  So `name1@name2', `{attrs1}@{attrs2}' and so on are now no
  longer legal.  This is no big loss because they were not useful
  anyway.

  This also changes the output of builtins.toXML for @-patterns
  slightly.

0910ae9568 * Start of an evaluator that uses call-by-need (with thunk updating)
instead of (memoised) call-by-name.

13cce8ec45 Making 'bin2c' to be built with the compiler for the local system.
I copied the configure.ac code about CC_FOR_BUILD from libX11.

05e15049a5 Show the build user's group in /etc/group in chroots.
* src/libstore/build.cc (nix::DerivationGoal::startBuilder): Create
  /etc/group showing the build user's group.

2e8eaca573 Clear supplementary groups of `nixbld' in /etc/passwd in chroots.

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).

20186a4079 Don't rely on `PATH_MAX' on GNU. 2010-02-10 15:55:50 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
4e17be7981 * Revert r19797, and use a simpler solution: just don't monitor build
hooks for silence.  It's unnecessary because the remote nix-store
  command is already monitoring the real build.

f859a8d3c3 * While waiting for a lock, print a sign of life every 5 minutes.
This prevents remote builders from being killed by the
  `max-silent-time' inactivity monitor while they are waiting for a
  long garbage collection to finish.  This happens fairly often in the
  Hydra build farm.

4bbbe25802 * Remove most Cygwin-specific code. Cygwin 1.7 implements advisory
POSIX locks, and simulates Unix-style file deletion semantics
  sufficiently.  Note that this means that Nix won't work on Cygwin
  1.5 anymore.

2723d9b56e * If fdatasync() isn't available, use fsync(). 2010-02-02 11:57:49 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
07ffdc2862 * Added an option "fsync-metadata" to fsync() changes to
/nix/var/nix/db.
* Removed the function writeStringToFile since it does (almost) the
  same thing as writeFile.

ad529fb89f * Don't consider a store path valid if its info file exists but is
zero bytes long.  That makes Nix more robust in case of crashes
  (especially on ext4).

fdcaf37361 * Made `nix-store -qR --include-outputs' much faster if there are
multiple paths specified on the command line (from O(n * m) to O(n +
  m), where n is the number of arguments and m is the size of the
  closure).

5388944e8d * Make the garbage collector do the right thing when `gc-keep-outputs'
is enabled by not depending on the deriver.

f0c0277970 * On startup, set the default SIGCHLD handler. This is so that Nix
works correctly in weird environments where the SIGCHLD handler is
  set to "ignore".

ef92a14bfe * Include config.h before the C library headers, because it defines
_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64.  Without it, functions like stat() fail on
  large file sizes.  This happened with a Nix store on squashfs:

  $ nix-store --dump /tmp/mnt/46wzqnk4cbdwh1dclhrpqnnz1icak6n7-local-net-cmds > /dev/null
  error: getting attributes of path `/tmp/mnt/46wzqnk4cbdwh1dclhrpqnnz1icak6n7-local-net-cmds': Value too large for defined data type

  $ stat /tmp/mnt/46wzqnk4cbdwh1dclhrpqnnz1icak6n7-local-net-cmds
  File: `/tmp/mnt/46wzqnk4cbdwh1dclhrpqnnz1icak6n7-local-net-cmds'
  Size: 0               Blocks: 36028797018963968 IO Block: 1024   regular empty file

  (This is a bug in squashfs or mksquashfs, but it shouldn't cause Nix
  to fail.)

945d8218fb * Build correctly against newer ATerm releases. Fixes "error: 'union'
tag used in naming 'struct _ATerm'".

bcd6cdf0d8 * Give a better error message when trying to build something and
readOnlyMode is set.

13618b191e * Grrr. 2009-11-24 13:28:46 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
aa5a768720 * GCC 4.4 is stricter about the EOF macro
(http://hydra.nixos.org/build/156340).

9b8fda796b * Templatise getIntArg / string2Int. 2009-11-24 12:26:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
8022015552 * In the garbage collector, don't count files with a link count > 1 in
the "bytes/blocks freed" statistics.
2009-11-24 10:51:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
f9e766db98 * Randomise the order in which we delete entries to make the collector
less biased towards deleting paths that come alphabetically first
  (e.g. /nix/store/000...).  This matters when using --max-freed etc.

3d55f1eb57 * A command `nix-store --query --roots <paths>' to find the garbage
collector roots that point (directly or indirectly) to the given
  paths.
2009-11-23 18:16:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
ae6bf87273 * `nix-store --gc --print-roots': also print the path of the actual
root symlink, not just its target.  E.g.:

  /nix/var/nix/profiles/system-99-link -> /nix/store/76kwf88657nq7wgk1hx3l1z5q91zb9wd-system
2009-11-23 17:23:12 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
c364d5d1e3 * Made the garbage collector a lot faster. It no longer computes the
complete set of live and dead paths before starting the actual
  deletion, but determines liveness on demand.  I.e. for any path in
  the store, it first tries to delete all the referrers, and then the
  path itself.  This means that the collector can start deleting paths
  almost immediately.
2009-11-23 16:34:24 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
8824d60fe5 * Remove the --use-atime / --max-atime garbage collector flags. Many
(Linux) machines no longer maintain the atime because it's too
  expensive, and on the machines where --use-atime is useful (like the
  buildfarm), reading the atimes on the entire Nix store takes way too
  much time to make it practical.
2009-11-20 17:12:38 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
327a232c85 * Remove support for old (before Nix 0.12pre12020) databases. 2009-11-06 01:15:44 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
8520542071 * When building in a chroot, make a copy of a file if hard-linking
fails.  This is likely to happen after a `nix-store --optimise',
  because some files may have 32000 links (NIX-111).
2009-10-22 08:28:33 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
6b9f6b0222 * Remove a prototype for a function that no longer exists. 2009-10-22 08:12:38 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
deb342fb08 * builtins.trace: in the common case that the value is a string, then
show the string, not the ATerm, so we get `trace: bla' instead of
  `trace: Str("bla",[])'.
2009-10-22 08:10:12 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
437077c39d * Added a primop unsafeDiscardOutputDependency needed by Disnix to
pass derivation paths to a builder without actually building them.
2009-10-21 15:05:30 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
6f7d7bc1de * Give a useful error message when an evaluation error occurs while
trying to upgrade a package.
