2010-11-17 (no commit message)Eelco Dolstra1-0/+1
2010-11-17 * Finally, a test for the binary patch functionality.Eelco Dolstra5-3/+56
2010-11-17 * Test that download sizes are shown correctly.Eelco Dolstra2-2/+4
2010-11-17 * Fix the test.Eelco Dolstra2-0/+2
2010-11-17 * Before a build, show the disk space that the downloaded store pathsEelco Dolstra11-29/+36
will approximately require.
2010-11-17 * Store the NAR size in the manifest.Eelco Dolstra2-1/+7
2010-11-17 * nix-push: no need to compute the NAR hash, since the Nix databaseEelco Dolstra2-9/+5
already has it (`nix-store -q --hash').
2010-11-17 * Add an operation `nix-store -q --size'.Eelco Dolstra5-10/+40
2010-11-17 * Implement RemoteStore::queryPathInfo().Eelco Dolstra3-1/+27
2010-11-16 * Store the size of a store path in the database (to be precise, theEelco Dolstra16-91/+144
size of the NAR serialisation of the path, i.e., `nix-store --dump PATH'). This is useful for Hydra.
2010-11-16 * Sync with the trunk.Eelco Dolstra37-444/+722
2010-10-29 * Merge the GC branch.Eelco Dolstra30-413/+678
2010-10-29 * Document Boehm GC support.Eelco Dolstra4-1/+40
2010-10-29 * Use pkgconfig to locate the Boehm GC (as suggested by Ludo), ifEelco Dolstra2-10/+10
--enable-gc is given.
2010-10-29 * Set libgc's initial heap size to 384 MiB to prevent garbageEelco Dolstra1-0/+12
collection in most cases (and therefore its performance overhead).
2010-10-28 * new(UseGC) is inexplicably slower than GC_MALLOC, so prefer theEelco Dolstra1-4/+4
latter.
2010-10-28 * Handle out of memory condition.Eelco Dolstra5-10/+28
2010-10-26 * Install config.h.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+2
2010-10-24 * We need Bison 2.4 now.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+2
2010-10-24 * When allocating an attribute set, reserve enough space for allEelco Dolstra4-28/+21
elements. This prevents the vector from having to resize itself.
2010-10-24 * Keep attribute sets in sorted order to speed up attribute lookups.Eelco Dolstra12-147/+185
* Simplify the representation of attributes in the AST. * Change the behaviour of listToAttrs() in case of duplicate names.
2010-10-24 * Don't create thunks for variable lookups (if possible). ThisEelco Dolstra3-23/+60
significantly reduces the number of values allocated (e.g. from 8.7m to 4.9m for the Bittorrent test).
2010-10-24 * Store attribute sets as a vector instead of a map (i.e. a red-blackEelco Dolstra7-90/+129
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).
2010-10-23 * Fix compiling without Boehm.Eelco Dolstra1-10/+8
* Fix the stats.
2010-10-23 * Regression test for listToAttr's behaviour if an attribute nameEelco Dolstra2-2/+3
occurs multiple times.
2010-10-23 * Optimise string constants by putting them in the symbol table.Eelco Dolstra4-39/+55
2010-10-23 * Make Value smaller by not storing redundant PrimOp info.Eelco Dolstra2-25/+44
* Clear pointers in Values after overwriting them to make sure that no objects are kept alive unnecessarily.
2010-10-23 * Remove allocValues().Eelco Dolstra4-36/+14
2010-10-22 * In environments, store pointers to values rather than values. ThisEelco Dolstra2-35/+25
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 * Regression test for __overrides.Eelco Dolstra2-0/+10
2010-10-22 * Store Value nodes outside of attribute sets. I.e., Attr now storesEelco Dolstra15-130/+150
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 * Make building against the Boehm GC a configure option.Eelco Dolstra6-14/+42
2010-10-20 * Keep some more stats.Eelco Dolstra2-0/+12
2010-10-20 * Use the Boehm garbage collector to reclaim unused memory in the NixEelco Dolstra5-15/+29
expression evaluator.
2010-10-20 * Evaluator garbage collection branch.Eelco Dolstra0-0/+0
2010-10-14 * Wrap deleteFromStore() in a transaction. Otherwise there might be aEelco Dolstra2-8/+13
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.
2010-10-06 nix manual: fix 'install' -> 'uninstall' in garbage collection section of ↵Rob Vermaas1-1/+1
introduction
2010-10-04 * In the referrers test, lower the nesting depth from 2500 to 1000 toEelco Dolstra1-1/+1
prevent hitting a stack overflow bug in the garbage collector.
2010-10-04 * Make sure that config.h is included before the system headers,Eelco Dolstra12-29/+29
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.
2010-10-04 * If std::tr1::unordered_set is unavailable, use std::set.Eelco Dolstra2-0/+16
2010-10-04 * "type -P" isn't portable.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2010-10-04 * Don't use SSH's `-tt' flag because it doesn't seem to workEelco Dolstra1-6/+10
on OpenSolaris when using connection sharing. Instead have the remote side check for disconnection and kill the process group when that happens.
2010-10-04 * Sync with the trunk.Eelco Dolstra4-4/+12
2010-10-04 * In printMsg(), ignore failing writes to stderr if we're in anEelco Dolstra1-1/+10
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.
2010-10-04 * Hack needed for GCC 4.3.2 on OpenSolaris.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2010-09-14 * Doh. Remove debug message.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+0
2010-09-01 * Only do "pragma journal_mode = ..." if the current journal modeEelco Dolstra1-1/+10
differs from the desired mode. There is an open SQLite ticket `Executing "PRAGMA journal_mode" may delete journal file while it is in use.'
2010-08-31 * Always print hook output on stderr, even if --no-build-output isEelco Dolstra2-6/+17
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 `nix-store --verify' improvements:Eelco Dolstra3-20/+62
* 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.
2010-08-30 * When using the build hook, distinguish between the stderr of theEelco Dolstra8-29/+47
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.
