a0be433fec * Disable X11 forwarding, it's not needed. 2010-12-15 14:25:54 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
f1a6b97639 * nix-copy-closure: make sure that the shell doesn't do globbing of 
`+' and `?' in filenames.  This is very slow if /nix/store is very
  large.  (This is a quick hack - a cleaner solution would be to
  bypass the shell entirely.)

3dd02580e3 * I forgot to catch SQLiteBusy in registerValidPaths(). So 
registerValidPaths() now handles busy errors and registerValidPath()
  is simply a wrapper around it.

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.

5833243c92 * Create /nix/var/nix/db if it's missing. 2010-12-13 13:42:34 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
100becf8d1 * createDirs(path): if path already exists, make sure it's a 
directory.
* Provide a C++ wrapper around lstat().

d7ca6f44eb * Update some comments. 2010-12-13 13:19:46 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
542fc69062 * When doing a query (e.g. `nix-store -r --dry-run'), don't make a lot 
of expensive calls to `nix-store --check-validity'.

4d57776813 * Use SQLite 3.7.4. 2010-12-10 11:45:56 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
e4720b1a79 * Ignore the result of sqlite3_reset(). 2010-12-08 18:19:15 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
7d0444e244 * Bad things happen when a filehandle has the same name as a module. 2010-12-07 12:33:42 +00:00
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.

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.

365f3028dd * Use CamelCase for the Perl modules. 2010-12-05 17:50:29 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
f42a505ab7 * Add a script `nix-generate-patches'. 
* Fix the binary patching test.
 2010-12-05 17:36:02 +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.
 2010-11-29 17:07:04 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
d3bba0c2d8 * Move the patch generator into a module. 2010-11-29 15:26:28 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
9737a7eba0 * Don't generate patches if the system type differs. 2010-11-29 09:26:05 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
bd48fd97f6 * Impose a configurable time limit on patch generation. This is 
necessary because bsdiff has some pathological worst-case behaviour,
  e.g. O(n^2) on files consisting only of 0s.

703e5a2ce2 * Sync with the trunk. 2010-11-25 14:09:13 +00:00
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

d92ccbf1ac * Test whether sequences of patches work. 2010-11-17 18:01:37 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
1a211d812f * Oops. 2010-11-17 17:54:49 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
a4f0365b2d * When checking whether a patch is applicable, for efficiency, use 
`nix-store -q --hash' to get the hash of the base path rather than
  `nix-hash'.  However, only do this for estimating the size of a
  download, not for the actual substitution, because sometimes the
  contents of store paths are modified (which they shouldn't, of
  course).
 2010-11-17 17:41:59 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
3d38a49840 * In the download size indication, take binary patches into account. 
Hopefully this doesn't slow things down too much.

a07c68f05e * Finally, a test for the binary patch functionality. 2010-11-17 15:30:07 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
bf658f016f * Test that download sizes are shown correctly. 2010-11-17 14:39:02 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
1e24cbaba3 * Fix the test. 2010-11-17 14:35:14 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
bdf089f463 * Before a build, show the disk space that the downloaded store paths 
will approximately require.

06699d4219 * Store the NAR size in the manifest. 2010-11-17 12:57:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
5693b8a7e2 * nix-push: no need to compute the NAR hash, since the Nix database 
already has it (`nix-store -q --hash').
 2010-11-17 12:51:54 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
e60c962fb8 * Add an operation `nix-store -q --size'. 2010-11-17 12:40:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
1db6259076 * Implement RemoteStore::queryPathInfo(). 2010-11-17 12:08:01 +00:00
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.

fb9368b5a0 * Sync with the trunk. 2010-11-16 12:49:47 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
4aced7f8d0 * Merge the GC branch. 2010-10-29 15:04:39 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
26def5392f * Document Boehm GC support. 2010-10-29 14:44:02 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
3d71c8013e * Use pkgconfig to locate the Boehm GC (as suggested by Ludo), if 
--enable-gc is given.
 2010-10-29 14:00:47 +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.
 2010-10-28 12:50:01 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
e11e6fb1c6 * Handle out of memory condition. 2010-10-28 12:29:40 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
8a788e38ac * Install config.h. 2010-10-26 10:47:02 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
11ccd44e95 * We need Bison 2.4 now. 2010-10-24 21:48:59 +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).
 2010-10-24 00:41:29 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
a247d20604 * Fix compiling without Boehm. 
* Fix the stats.
 2010-10-23 22:58:24 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
02934b1200 * Regression test for listToAttr's behaviour if an attribute name 
occurs multiple times.
