2013-02-27 Refactoring: Split off the non-recursive canonicalisePathMetaData()Eelco Dolstra3-37/+52
Also, change the file mode before changing the owner. This prevents a slight time window in which a setuid binary would be setuid root.

2013-02-26 Security: Don't allow builders to change permissions on files they don't ownEelco Dolstra5-20/+17
It turns out that in multi-user Nix, a builder may be able to do ln /etc/shadow $out/foo Afterwards, canonicalisePathMetaData() will be applied to $out/foo, causing /etc/shadow's mode to be set to 444 (readable by everybody but writable by nobody). That's obviously Very Bad. Fortunately, this fails in NixOS's default configuration because /nix/store is a bind mount, so "ln" will fail with "Invalid cross-device link". It also fails if hard-link restrictions are enabled, so a workaround is: echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_hardlinks The solution is to check that all files in $out are owned by the build user. This means that innocuous operations like "ln ${pkgs.foo}/some-file $out/" are now rejected, but that already failed in chroot builds anyway.

‘--option verbosity 0’ doesn't actually do anything.

2013-02-08 Make "${./path} ..." evaluate to a string, not a pathEelco Dolstra3-5/+7
Wacky string coercion semantics caused expressions like exec = "${./my-script} params..."; to evaluate to a path (‘/path/my-script params’), because anti-quotations are desuged to string concatenation: exec = ./my-script + " params..."; By constrast, adding a space at the start would yield a string as expected: exec = " ${./my-script} params..."; Now the first example also evaluates to a string.

2013-01-17 Store build logs in /nix/var/log/nix/drvs/<XX>Eelco Dolstra2-30/+37
...where <XX> is the first two characters of the derivation. Otherwise /nix/var/log/nix/drvs may become so large that we run into all sorts of weird filesystem limits/inefficiences. For instance, ext3/ext4 filesystems will barf with "ext4_dx_add_entry:1551: Directory index full!" once you hit a few million files.
