2017-04-06 Implement RemoteStore::queryMissing()Eelco Dolstra5-3/+44
This provides a significant speedup, e.g. 64 s -> 12 s for nix-build --dry-run -I nixpkgs=channel:nixos-16.03 '<nixpkgs/nixos/tests/misc.nix>' -A test on a cold local and CloudFront cache. The alternative is to use lots of concurrent daemon connections but that seems wasteful.
2017-04-06 Fix bogus "unexpected Nix daemon error: interrupted by the user"Eelco Dolstra1-2/+2
2017-04-06 Add a method to allow hydra-queue-runner to flush the path info cacheEelco Dolstra1-5/+7
2017-04-06 nix-daemon: Disable path info cacheEelco Dolstra5-5/+17
This is useless because the client also caches path info, and can cause problems for long-running clients like hydra-queue-runner (i.e. it may return cached info about paths that have been garbage-collected).
2017-04-04 Allow default sandbox paths to be overridenEelco Dolstra1-1/+1
E.g. you can now redirect /etc/resolv.conf to a different file.

Not every distribution uses nscd.

2017-03-31 Sandbox: Fix /dev/ptmx on recent kernelsEelco Dolstra1-8/+1
This fixes "No such file or directory" when opening /dev/ptmx (e.g. http://hydra.nixos.org/build/51094249). The reason appears to be some changes to /dev/ptmx / /dev/pts handling between Linux 4.4 and 4.9. See https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/7832531/. The fix is to go back to mounting a proper /dev/pts instance inside the sandbox. Happily, this now works inside user namespaces, even for unprivileged users. So NIX_REMOTE=local?root=/tmp/nix nix-build \ '<nixpkgs/nixos/tests/misc.nix>' -A test works for non-root users. The downside is that the fix breaks sandbox builds on older kernels (probably pre-4.6), since mounting a devpts fails inside user namespaces for some reason I've never been able to figure out. Builds on those systems will fail with error: while setting up the build environment: mounting /dev/pts: Invalid argument Ah well.

2017-03-30 Add exec primop behind allow-unsafe-native-code-during-evaluation.Shea Levy3-5/+59
Execute a given program with the (optional) given arguments as the user running the evaluation, parsing stdout as an expression to be evaluated. There are many use cases for nix that would benefit from being able to run arbitrary code during evaluation, including but not limited to: * Automatic git fetching to get a sha256 from a git revision * git rev-parse HEAD * Automatic extraction of information from build specifications from other tools, particularly language-specific package managers like cabal or npm * Secrets decryption (e.g. with nixops) * Private repository fetching Ideally, we would add this functionality in a more principled way to nix, but in the mean time 'builtins.exec' can be used to get these tasks done. The primop is only available when the 'allow-unsafe-native-code-during-evaluation' nix option is true. That flag also enables the 'importNative' primop, which is strictly more powerful but less convenient (since it requires compiling a plugin against the running version of nix).

2017-03-21 Only use cache.nixos.org when the store is /nix/storeEelco Dolstra1-1/+5
This is consistent with the behaviour of the old download-from-binary-cache substituter.

This corresponds to the NixOS default.

Previously, we tried to compute the closure in the local store, which obviously doesn't work.

2017-03-16 copyPaths(): Use queryValidPaths() to reduce SSH latencyEelco Dolstra10-38/+46
2017-03-16 copyPaths(): Don't query path info for a path the target already hasEelco Dolstra1-0/+1
For example, this cuts "nix-copy-closure --from" on a NixOS system closure from 15.9s to 0.5s.
2017-03-16 LegacySSHStore: Provide a faster implementation of computeFSClosure()Eelco Dolstra2-1/+23
This avoids the latency of the standard implementation, which can make a huge difference (e.g. 16.5s -> 0.5s on a NixOS system closure).

2017-03-15 runProgram(): Distinguish between empty input and no inputEelco Dolstra5-15/+30
For example, if we call brotli with an empty input, it shouldn't read from the caller's stdin.
2017-03-15 Compress NAR listings using the "text-compression" methodEelco Dolstra2-3/+3
So if "text-compression=br", the .ls file in S3 will get a Content-Encoding of "br". Brotli appears to compress better than xz for this kind of file and is natively supported by browsers.
2017-03-15 S3BinaryCacheStore: Set Content-TypeEelco Dolstra5-13/+25
This is necessary for serving log files to browsers.
2017-03-15 S3BinaryCacheStore: Support compression of narinfo and log filesEelco Dolstra5-8/+71
You can now set the store parameter "text-compression=br" to compress textual files in the binary cache (i.e. narinfo and logs) using Brotli. This sets the Content-Encoding header; the extension of compressed files is unchanged. You can separately specify the compression of log files using "log-compression=br". This is useful when you don't want to compress narinfo files for backward compatibility.
2017-03-15 Fix assertion failure on SIGINTEelco Dolstra1-2/+0

2017-03-15 Add support for brotli compressionEelco Dolstra7-5/+38
Build logs on cache.nixos.org are compressed using Brotli (since this allows them to be decompressed automatically by Chrome and Firefox), so it's handy if "nix log" can decompress them.
