2011-12-22	* Oops.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2011-12-22	* In the garbage collector, delete invalid paths before deleting	Eelco Dolstra	3	-12/+45
	unreachable paths. This matters when using --max-freed etc.: unreachable paths could become reachable again, so it's nicer to keep them if there is "real" garbage to be deleted. Also, don't use readDirectory() but read the Nix store and delete invalid paths in parallel. This reduces GC latency on very large Nix stores.
2011-12-22	* Drop unnecessary call to canonPath() (nixStore is already canonical).	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2011-12-22	* ‘--disable-shared’ is no longer supported. Fortunately it's not	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2
	needed for the coverage analysis.
2011-12-21	* Another case of lock file permissions being too liberal.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2011-12-21	* Security: make sure the lock files used by build-remote.pl are not	Eelco Dolstra	1	-5/+5
	readable to other users. Otherwise, any user can open the lock file for reading and lock it, thus DoSing the remote build mechanism.
2011-12-21	* Use a lock to ensure that only one build-remote instance can copy a	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+10
	closure to a given machine at the same time. This prevents the case where multiple instances try to copy the same missing store path to the target machine, which is very wasteful.
2011-12-21	* Add some accidentally committed files.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-2/+0

2011-12-16	* importPath() -> importPaths(). Because of buffering of the input	Eelco Dolstra	10	-57/+75
	stream it's now necessary for the daemon to process the entire sequence of exported paths, rather than letting the client do it.
2011-12-16	* Avoid expensive conversions from char arrays to STL strings.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-13/+25

2011-12-16	* Make the import operation through the daemon much more efficient	Eelco Dolstra	6	-44/+68
	(way fewer roundtrips) by allowing the client to send data in bigger chunks. * Some refactoring.
2011-12-16	* Clean up exception handling.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-3/+10

2011-12-15	* Refactoring: move sink/source buffering into separate classes.	Eelco Dolstra	8	-90/+125
	* Buffer the HashSink. This speeds up hashing a bit because it prevents lots of calls to the hash update functions (e.g. nix-hash went from 9.3s to 8.7s of user time on the closure of my /var/run/current-system).
2011-12-15	* Typo.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2011-12-15	* Buffer reads in FdSource. Together with write buffering, this	Eelco Dolstra	2	-10/+32
	significantly cuts down the number of syscalls (e.g., for "nix-store -qR /var/run/current-system" via the daemon, it reduced the number of syscalls in the client from 29134 to 4766 and in the daemon from 44266 to 20666).
2011-12-14	* Buffer writes in FdSink. This significantly reduces the number of	Eelco Dolstra	4	-14/+50
	system calls / context switches when dumping a NAR and in the worker protocol.
2011-12-14	* Remove the terminate handler, which was only really needed because	Eelco Dolstra	1	-23/+0
	of Berkeley DB (see r8632).
2011-12-14	* Oops, the daemon test wasn't actually using the daemon.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-3/+1

2011-12-05	* Remove unnecessary quotes. showPaths() already adds quotes.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2011-12-02	* In ‘nix-store --verify --check-contents’, repair missing hashes	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+20
	rather than complain about them.
2011-12-02	* nix-prefetch-url: rewritten in Perl.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-135/+98

2011-12-02	* Add some more functions to the Perl bindings.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-1/+48

2011-12-02	* Move parseHash16or32 into libutil, and use in nix-hash.	Eelco Dolstra	5	-22/+23

2011-12-01	* Allow '<nixexpr>' syntax to be used in nix-instantiate, nix-build	Eelco Dolstra	5	-4/+16
	and nix-env, e.g., $ nix-env -f '<nixpkgs>' -i patchelf or $ nix-build '<nixos/tests>' -A login.test
2011-12-01	* Slight improvement.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+2

2011-12-01	* When doing "nix-store --add-fixed" without "--recursive" via the Nix	Eelco Dolstra	3	-6/+16
	daemon (which is an error), print a nicer error message than "Connection reset by peer" or "broken pipe". * In the daemon, log errors that occur during request parameter processing.
2011-12-01	doc/manual/nix-env.xml: fixed "nix-env -qaA" typo	Peter Simons	1	-1/+1

2011-12-01	doc/manual/nix-env.xml: stripped trailing whitespace	Peter Simons	1	-100/+100

2011-11-29	* Don't require a specific Perl version.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+0

2011-11-29	* Fix make check.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+3

2011-11-29	* download-using-manifests: use the Perl bindings.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-38/+45

2011-11-29	* Get rid of some superfluous error messages if a substituter fails.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-16/+7
	* Say "fetch" instead of "substitute".
2011-11-29	* For consistency with "nix-store -q --hash", produce hashes in	Eelco Dolstra	2	-3/+3
	base-32. (This affects Hydra manifests.)
2011-11-29	* Get rid of the shell in ssh calls.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2

2011-11-25	* Fix race.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2011-11-23	(no commit message)	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2011-11-23	* Document the --include-outputs option.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-9/+18

2011-11-23	* Add bzip2 and xz support to nix-copy-closure.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-4/+17

2011-11-23	* Add an API function exportPaths() that provides the functionality of	Eelco Dolstra	10	-38/+90
	‘nix-store --export’. * Add a Perl module that provides the functionality of ‘nix-copy-closure --to’. This is used by build-remote.pl so it no longer needs to start a separate nix-copy-closure process. Also, it uses the Perl API to do the export, so it doesn't need to start a separate nix-store process either. As a result, nix-copy-closure and build-remote.pl should no longer fail on very large closures due to an "Argument list too long" error. (Note that having very many dependencies in a single derivation can still fail because the environment can become too large. Can't be helped though.)
2011-11-23	* build-remote.pl: drop a hard-coded reference to /nix/etc/nix.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-1/+3

2011-11-22	* Move initialisation of variables like nixConfDir from libmain to	Eelco Dolstra	6	-36/+46
	libstore so that the Perl bindings can use it as well. It's vital that the Perl bindings use the configuration file, because otherwise nix-copy-closure will fail with a ‘database locked’ message if the value of ‘use-sqlite-wal’ is changed from the default.
2011-11-21	nix: add /etc/hosts with localhost entry to chroot builds.	Rob Vermaas	1	-0/+3

2011-11-21	* Doh.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2011-11-21	* Put back the "sys_name" variable which got removed somewhere. This	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+9
	broke building on Cygwin and Solaris.
2011-11-21	* Escape the [ and ] characters in the sed call, otherwise autoconf	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	will eat them.
2011-11-20	* "sed" on FreeBSD doesn't know the "+" operator.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+1

2011-11-18	* In the platform, canonicalise "amd64" to "x86_64". FreeBSD 8.2's	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+5
	uname reports amd64. * Drop the FreeBSD version number, e.g. "i686-freebsd" instead of "i686-freebsd8.2".
2011-11-16	configure: Change i*86 to i686 as has always been done.	Ludovic Courtès	1	-3/+10

2011-11-16	configure: Rely on `AC_CANONICAL_HOST' to determine the Nix system name.	Ludovic Courtès	1	-30/+13
	This should be more robust and also plays better with cross-compilation---it uses the host name, instead of using the build name.
2011-11-16	* nix-pull: update the Nix manifest cache if necessary. Also, don't	Eelco Dolstra	2	-25/+7
	read the manifest just to check the version and print the number of paths. This makes nix-pull very fast for the cached cache (speeding up nixos-rebuild without the ‘--no-pull’ or ‘--fast’ options).
