2006-11-30 | * Oops. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -0/+135 | |
2006-11-30 | * Skeleton of remote store implementation. | Eelco Dolstra | 4 | -6/+14 | |
2006-11-30 | * Put building in the store API. | Eelco Dolstra | 11 | -48/+31 | |
2006-11-30 | * Refactoring. There is now an abstract interface class StoreAPI | Eelco Dolstra | 17 | -338/+458 | |
containing functions that operate on the Nix store. One implementation is LocalStore, which operates on the Nix store directly. The next step, to enable secure multi-user Nix, is to create a different implementation RemoteStore that talks to a privileged daemon process that uses LocalStore to perform the actual operations. | |||||
2006-11-30 | * Benchmarking Unix domain sockets. | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -0/+121 | |
2006-11-30 | * Troubleshooting information on fixing a b0rked Berkeley DB database. | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -13/+45 | |
2006-11-29 | * Don't spam. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+2 | |
2006-11-29 | * Example script to set permissions for setuid operation. | Roy van den Broek | 2 | -1/+10 | |
2006-11-29 | * Remove --enable-setuid, --with-nix-user and --with-nix-group. | Eelco Dolstra | 4 | -61/+53 | |
Rather, setuid support is now always compiled in (at least on platforms that have the setresuid system call, e.g., Linux and FreeBSD), but it must enabled by chowning/chmodding the Nix binaries. | |||||
2006-11-24 | * Doh! Path sizes need to be computed recursively of course. | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -6/+28 | |
(NIX-70) | |||||
2006-11-24 | * Dead files. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -12/+0 | |
2006-11-18 | * Show more progress. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+3 | |
2006-11-18 | * Turn off synchronisation between C and C++ I/O functions. This | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -1/+3 | |
gives a huge speedup in operations that read or write from standard input/output. (So libstdc++'s I/O isn't that bad, you just have to call std::ios::sync_with_stdio(false).) For instance, `nix-store --register-substitutes' went from 1.4 seconds to 0.1 seconds on a certain input. Another victory for Valgrind. | |||||
2006-11-14 | * Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr... | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2006-11-14 | * Doh! | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2006-11-14 | * Doh. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2006-11-14 | * Use the patched ATerm library. | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -892/+5 | |
2006-11-14 | * Push. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+2 | |
2006-11-13 | * Remove the undocumented `noscan' feature. It's no longer necessary | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -15/+12 | |
now that reference scanning is sufficiently streamy. | |||||
2006-11-13 | * Magic attribute `exportReferencesGraph' that allows the references | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -21/+65 | |
graph to be passed to a builder. This attribute should be a list of pairs [name1 path1 name2 path2 ...]. The references graph of each `pathN' will be stored in a text file `nameN' in the temporary build directory. The text files have the format used by `nix-store --register-validity'. However, the deriver fields are left empty. `exportReferencesGraph' is useful for builders that want to do something with the closure of a store path. Examples: the builders that make initrds and ISO images for NixOS. `exportReferencesGraph' is entirely pure. It's necessary because otherwise the only way for a builder to get this information would be to call `nix-store' directly, which is not allowed (though unfortunately possible). | |||||
2006-11-13 | * Option `--reregister' in `nix-store --register-validity'. We need | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -8/+22 | |
this in the NixOS installer (or in the buildfarm) to ensure that the cryptographic hash of the path contents still matches the actual contents. | |||||
2006-11-13 | * Don't use the result of `uname -p' on x86_64 as it gives wacky | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+3 | |
results on some machines. (NIX-69) | |||||
2006-11-07 | * Fix the locking patch for Berkeley DB 4.5. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2006-11-03 | * Fix importing of derivation outputs. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+9 | |
2006-10-31 | * Oops, `nix-build --no-out-link' was broken. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2006-10-30 | * Release notes. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+14 | |
2006-10-30 | * readFile: don't overflow the stack on large files. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+15 | |
2006-10-28 | * Don't use EPSV. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2006-10-28 | * `nix-store --read-log / -l PATH' shows the build log of PATH, if | Eelco Dolstra | 5 | -4/+60 | |
available. For instance, $ nix-store -l $(which svn) | less lets you read the build log of the Subversion instance in your profile. * `nix-store -qb': if applied to a non-derivation, take the deriver. | |||||
2006-10-26 | * Typo reported by Arie Middelkoop. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -3/+4 | |
* Left out close-quote in example. | |||||
2006-10-23 | * Some better error messages. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -5/+12 | |
2006-10-19 | * Require Perl 5.8.0 or newer. I mean, it *is* more than four years | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+9 | |
old... | |||||
2006-10-19 | * Checks for allowedReferences and some other features. | Eelco Dolstra | 4 | -2/+100 | |
* Use nix-build in a test. | |||||
2006-10-19 | * Better message. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2006-10-19 | * toFile: maintain the references. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -10/+4 | |
2006-10-19 | * nix-build: check the exit status of `nix-store -r'. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -4/+6 | |
2006-10-19 | * Special derivation attribute `allowedReferences' that causes Nix to | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+31 | |
check that the references of the output of a derivation are in the specified set. For instance, allowedReferences = []; specifies that the output cannot have any references. (This is useful, for instance, for the generation of bootstrap binaries for stdenv-linux, which must not have any references for purity). It could also be used to guard against undesired runtime dependencies, e.g., {gcc, dynlib}: derivation { ... allowedReferences = [dynlib]; } says that the output can refer to the path of `dynlib' but not `gcc'. A `forbiddedReferences' attribute would be more useful for this, though. | |||||
2006-10-17 | * Backwards compatibility hack for user environments made by Nix <= 0.10. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+7 | |
2006-10-17 | * Backwards compatibility with old user environment manifests. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -4/+8 | |
2006-10-17 | * Print out the offending path. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+3 | |
2006-10-17 | * An awful backwards compatibility hack. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+24 | |
2006-10-17 | * baseNameOf: paths don't have to be absolute. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2006-10-17 | * Maintain the references for the user environment properly. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2006-10-17 | * Another test. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+1 | |
2006-10-17 | * Fix the tests wrt the AST changes, i.e., Str(s) -> Str(s, []), and | Eelco Dolstra | 19 | -22/+22 | |
the semantic changes. | |||||
2006-10-17 | * toPath: should be the identity on paths. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -3/+1 | |
2006-10-17 | * dirOf: return a path if the argument is a path. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+6 | |
2006-10-17 | * toString: don't copy paths. So toString can be used to pass | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -3/+4 | |
non-store paths to a builder. | |||||
2006-10-17 | * Do the path check on the normal form. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+5 | |
2006-10-17 | * Don't generate an empty drvPath attribute in the manifest. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -6/+6 | |
