2010-03-11 Fix thinko in r20547.Ludovic Courtès1-4/+4
* src/libstore/build.cc (nix::DerivationGoal::startBuilder): Fix the GID of the build user in /etc/passwd.
2010-03-11 Clear supplementary groups of `nixbld' in /etc/passwd in chroots.Ludovic Courtès1-4/+5
* src/libstore/build.cc (nix::DerivationGoal::startBuilder): Don't display any supplementary groups for `nixbld' in /etc/passwd.
2010-03-05 * nix-prefetch-url depends on sed (seeEelco Dolstra3-1/+3
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/311170).
2010-02-24 * Don't use fdatasync since it doesn't work on Snow Leopard.Eelco Dolstra4-10/+3
* Don't refer to config.h in util.hh, because config.h is not installed (http://hydra.nixos.org/build/303053).
2010-02-23 * Use ATerm 2.5.Eelco Dolstra4-12/+147
2010-02-23 * Run ATerm's `make check'.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+1
2010-02-16 * Since Hydra now escapes `+', `=' and `?' to %NN in URIs,Eelco Dolstra1-1/+4
nix-prefetch-url should unescape them, because `%' is not a valid character in store path names.
2010-02-12 * Typo. Reported by Peter Koppstein.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2010-02-10 Don't rely on `PATH_MAX' on GNU.Ludovic Courtès1-0/+10
2010-02-10 Add `.gitignore'.Ludovic Courtès1-0/+262
2010-02-05 * Fix a broken link (reported by Bjorn Buckwalter).Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2010-02-04 * Bump.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2010-02-04 * Grmbl. Timing-sensitive tests are evil.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2010-02-04 (no commit message)Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2010-02-04 * "Fix" incorrect help message.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2010-02-04 * Don't use ssh's -f flag since it leads to lots of lingering sshEelco Dolstra1-2/+12
processes.
2010-02-04 * Doh! The scope of $slotLock should extend to the end of the script,Eelco Dolstra1-1/+2
because otherwise the lock will be released at the end of the while loop.
2010-02-04 * Typo.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2010-02-04 * Doh! Calling `system' in an END block causes the exit status in $?Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
to be changed to 0.
2010-02-04 * Remove the `cat' calls when not using --gzip.Eelco Dolstra1-7/+7
2010-02-04 * Revert r19796 for now.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2010-02-03 * Revert r19797, and use a simpler solution: just don't monitor buildEelco Dolstra4-37/+21
hooks for silence. It's unnecessary because the remote nix-store command is already monitoring the real build.
2010-02-03 * While waiting for a lock, print a sign of life every 5 minutes.Eelco Dolstra3-3/+27
This prevents remote builders from being killed by the `max-silent-time' inactivity monitor while they are waiting for a long garbage collection to finish. This happens fairly often in the Hydra build farm.
2010-02-03 * Respect @sysconfdir@.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2010-02-03 * In the build hook, if connecting to a machine fails, try the otherEelco Dolstra3-73/+77
machines of the right type (if available). This makes the build farm more robust to failures.
2010-02-03 * Use SSH connection sharing in the remote build script.Eelco Dolstra1-36/+16
* Removed the Cygwin password hack since the problem is apparently fixed in Visual Studio.
2010-02-03 * nix-copy-closure: start only one SSH connection to the server, orEelco Dolstra3-5/+49
recycle an already existing connection (using OpenSSH's connection sharing feature).
2010-02-03 * Updated the release notes.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+5
2010-02-02 * Ugly hack to make `nix-channel' work on Cygwin.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+3
2010-02-02 * Don't do a chdir to $tmpDir. It's not necessary, and Windows doesn'tEelco Dolstra1-2/+0
support deleting the current directory.
2010-02-02 * Remove most Cygwin-specific code. Cygwin 1.7 implements advisoryEelco Dolstra4-112/+5
POSIX locks, and simulates Unix-style file deletion semantics sufficiently. Note that this means that Nix won't work on Cygwin 1.5 anymore.
2010-02-02 * If fdatasync() isn't available, use fsync().Eelco Dolstra2-0/+5
2010-01-29 * Added an option "fsync-metadata" to fsync() changes toEelco Dolstra6-28/+37
/nix/var/nix/db. * Removed the function writeStringToFile since it does (almost) the same thing as writeFile.
2010-01-29 * Don't consider a store path valid if its info file exists but isEelco Dolstra1-4/+36
zero bytes long. That makes Nix more robust in case of crashes (especially on ext4).
2010-01-25 * Made `nix-store -qR --include-outputs' much faster if there areEelco Dolstra3-41/+13
multiple paths specified on the command line (from O(n * m) to O(n + m), where n is the number of arguments and m is the size of the closure).
2010-01-25 * Disable gzip compression in build-remote.pl because it puts too muchEelco Dolstra1-2/+2
load on the Hydra build farm (where it's unnecessary anyway because it has a fast connection to the build machines). In any case, compression can be enabled by using the `-C' option to ssh.
2010-01-25 * Make the garbage collector do the right thing when `gc-keep-outputs'Eelco Dolstra4-18/+90
is enabled by not depending on the deriver.
2010-01-12 * On startup, set the default SIGCHLD handler. This is so that NixEelco Dolstra1-5/+11
works correctly in weird environments where the SIGCHLD handler is set to "ignore".
2009-12-17 * Include config.h before the C library headers, because it definesEelco Dolstra3-4/+6
_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64. Without it, functions like stat() fail on large file sizes. This happened with a Nix store on squashfs: $ nix-store --dump /tmp/mnt/46wzqnk4cbdwh1dclhrpqnnz1icak6n7-local-net-cmds > /dev/null error: getting attributes of path `/tmp/mnt/46wzqnk4cbdwh1dclhrpqnnz1icak6n7-local-net-cmds': Value too large for defined data type $ stat /tmp/mnt/46wzqnk4cbdwh1dclhrpqnnz1icak6n7-local-net-cmds File: `/tmp/mnt/46wzqnk4cbdwh1dclhrpqnnz1icak6n7-local-net-cmds' Size: 0 Blocks: 36028797018963968 IO Block: 1024 regular empty file (This is a bug in squashfs or mksquashfs, but it shouldn't cause Nix to fail.)
2009-12-16 * Build correctly against newer ATerm releases. Fixes "error: 'union'Eelco Dolstra2-3/+2
tag used in naming 'struct _ATerm'".
2009-12-10 * Build on Fedora 12.Eelco Dolstra1-7/+9
2009-12-09 * Release notes.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+40
2009-12-09 * When doing a nix-pull, remove old manifests downloaded from the sameEelco Dolstra2-8/+23
URL. This prevents lots of old cruft accumulating in /nix/var/nix/manifests.
2009-12-09 * nix-build: be less verbose.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+8
2009-12-09 * Give a better error message when trying to build something andEelco Dolstra1-0/+6
readOnlyMode is set.
2009-11-24 * Grrr.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2009-11-24 * GCC 4.4 is stricter about the EOF macroEelco Dolstra1-0/+2
(http://hydra.nixos.org/build/156340).
2009-11-24 * Templatise getIntArg / string2Int.Eelco Dolstra5-40/+25
2009-11-24 * In the garbage collector, don't count files with a link count > 1 inEelco Dolstra1-2/+4
the "bytes/blocks freed" statistics.
2009-11-24 * Randomise the order in which we delete entries to make the collectorEelco Dolstra1-2/+10
less biased towards deleting paths that come alphabetically first (e.g. /nix/store/000...). This matters when using --max-freed etc.
